Syrup refractive index

In addition to DE values and carbohydrate profiles, syrups are usually identified by their solids level. The traditional means of expressing the solids of a glucose/syrup is the Baume number. Extensive work comparing the Baume number to refractive index... [Pg.818]

Total Solids Determine the refractive index of a sample at 20° or 45°, and use the appropriate Glucose Syrup table under Glucose Syrup (Corn Syrup), Appendix X. [Pg.195]

For Corn Syrups, High-Fructose Corn Syrups, Liquid Fructose, and Maltodextrin, convert the refractive index to approximate percent solids using the accompanying tables. [Pg.957]

The refractometer is essentially an analytical instrument, used to determine the composition of binary mixtures (as in Exp. 14) or to check the purity of compounds. Its most common industrial application is in the food and confectionery industries, where it is used in saccharimetry —the determination of the concentration of sugar in syrup. Many commercially available refractometers have two scales one calibrated directly in refractive index, the other in percent sucrose at 20°C. [Pg.617]

Refractometry is a technique used to detect the concentration of binary mixtures based on differences in their refractive index. Besides concentration, it is also a simple method to quantify purity. Salinity of brine or sucrose concentrations in grapes or syrup are two typical applications. Urine-specific gravity is measured for drug diagnostics and plasma protein is assessed by refractometry in veterinary medicine. [Pg.291]

In syrups, the solids content (Brix, or refracto-metric dry solids (RDS)) is determined by refractive index measurement. Tables correlating refractive index with sucrose and invert content are published in the International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis and AO AC methods books. [Pg.4730]
