VSU CASL

Proximate analysis is a standard chemical method to determine the basic nutritional or compositional makeup of materials like food, feed, or biomass, dividing them into key fractions: moisture, ash (minerals), crude protein, crude fat (ether extract), crude fiber, and nitrogen-free extract (carbohydrates). This process provides essential data for nutritional labeling, feed formulation, quality control, and evaluating energy potential, often using the historic Weende system for feeds.
