Abstract

Abstract Glucose in starch hydrolysates was determined by catalytic oxidation of glucose with glucose oxidase to form hydrogen peroxide which, in the presence of peroxidase and a chromogen, yields a colored product. This product, when acidified, is very stable and the color intensity is proportional to the glucose concentration in the sample. Fermco Test S.F.G., a package containing all the ingredients necessary for the reaction, was used. Eleven collaborators who analyzed five different sirup samples found the method to be adequate for determining glucose. Results compared well with those by paper and gas chromatography. The method is recommended for adoption as official first action.
