Technicians in the food and beverage industry measure pH both in the lab and continuously in process. Dirty samples with contaminants such as proteins, oils, and fats introduce difficulties in pH measurements. These challenges can be resolved with appropriate sensor design, reference junction design, and a sustainable maintenance strategy. For example, a design featuring a “spear-tip” sensor allows the analyst to pierce meat, fruit, cheese, and other substrates to facilitate measurement mechanics.
