Food Testing - Unknown Material in Apple Pie

Project Experience: Unknown Material, Apple Pie

Subject	Food Testing - Unknown Material in Apple Pie
A client bought an apple pie at a famous fast-food restaurant. While eating, he found a “blob” of material that he suspected could be rat droppings. The sample was sent for analysis to EMSL Analytical. Complex Analysis by light microscopy, SEM/EDX, and FTIR, showed that the “blob” was actually an agglomeration of sugar and cinnamon.
