Alphas MOS gained over 5% on the Paris Bourse on Friday, after a Chinese customer validated the performance of its electronic noses for milk control.

The validation by Mengniu, China's leading dairy group and number seven worldwide in the sector, comes six months after the signing of a two-year framework contract with distribution company Lan Chou Instruments to equip Mengniu with Heracles NEO electronic noses.

Mengniu initially equipped itself with three instruments to monitor, under operational conditions, changes in the smell of its products over time, a sign of possible abnormal aging.

After six months' work, 859 sets of data have been tested by different sample components and by all the raw milk suppliers.

These electronic noses are now in daily use at the first two sites, with the aim of eventually equipping all forty of the customer's sites.

Satisfied with this first collaboration, Mengniu is now testing the Iris, the electronic eye developed by Alpha MOS, in other applications such as the aging of processed dairy products and the conformity of labeling.
