As a result of the analysis of the main technical and economic indicators of the introduction of new test equipment for the determination of toxic elements in food in the laboratory center, it was found that the replacement of the photoelectric concentration colorimeter “KFK-2MP” with the analyzer “Pan-arsenic” when analyzing samples of food products and food raw materials for the content arsenic will be effective. Replacement of the outdated and decommissioned model of the atomic absorption spectrometer “Kvant-AFA” for the atomic absorption spectrometer “Kvant-2AT” in the analysis of samples of food and food raw materials for lead and cadmium content will be effective. The option of replacing the Kvant-AFA spectrometer with a voltammetric analyzer “TA-4” when analyzing samples of food products and food raw materials for lead and cadmium content will be effective if the performance of the new equipment meets the laboratory’s needs in the number of studies, and the purchase of atomic -absorption spectrometer will not be advisable due to the absence of the need for its performance for the implementation of measurements and insufficient solvency of the laboratory. The introduction of the PLP-01M microwave laboratory system introduces a limitation on the number of studies per year, which reduces the capabilities of the measuring device, in cases both for the simultaneously introduced spectrometer “Kvant-2AT” and for the already used “Kvant-AFA”. The introduction of the PLP-01M system will be beneficial if the performance of the new equipment meets the laboratory’s needs in the number of studies.
