With the support of the National Research Council of Canada, Alberta Research Council and AVAC Ltd., SciMed Laboratories has developed an enzyme immunoassay kit to detect and quantify Vitamin A and D levels in fortified fluid milk samples. The technology has been granted a provisional patent and promises to reduce or eliminate costs and logistical concerns associated with compliance of government testing regulations for fortified milk products. The diagnostic kit enables dairy processors to conduct vitamin A and D analysis at the plant in only 3 hours instead of having to courier samples to a lab and wait 10-14 business days for results.

For ice cream, new Buckeye Bites are miniature low-melt chocolates, which are best described as smooth dark chocolate surrounding a visible creamy peanut butter center. Peanut Butter Bear Nuggets are similar in appearance and flavor to Buckeye Bites and are used in Gitchigoomie Bear Nuggets ice cream, which is snowy white vanilla ice cream with swirls of fudge and the nuggets.
