Determination of Sugars in Fruit Juice using a Compact IC System

23 May 2016

This application proof note demonstrates a high-performance anion-exchange with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAE-PAD) method to accurately determine sugar concentrations. Excess sugar consumption is tied to poor health outcomes. The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act requires that for a pre-packaged food or drink the amount of sugar be displayed on the Nutrition Facts label. The method is performed using a Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ Integrion™ HPIC™ system, which allows fast determination of sugars in fruit juice with no eluent preparation or sample derivatization.

Thermo Fisher Scientific

As an ion chromatographer, the routine IC applications you run give the rest of us the peace of mind to use everyday resources like water, food and beverages, biofuels and pharmaceuticals without a second thought. Using this high-pressure-capable IC system to separate and quantify common ionic pollutants in municipal drinking water and wastewater can provide faster, more cost-effective methods for regulatory compliance testing.   Nothing supports you in this role more than your laboratory instruments. The Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ Integrion™ HPIC™ system is designed to be your reliable lab partner.     Features:   Simplified plumbing layout with integrated architecture - Layout based on logical flow-path for easy component access in a compact platform with a small physical footprint. Consumables Device Monitor - Provides positive identification of a consumable's performance metrics, preventing consumable installation errors and mismatches by automatically logging consumable use and performance. Detachable tablet with local language support - Flexible access to IC controls that speak your language Upgradeable features - In a fluid market with changing demands, the Dionex Integrion IC system offers a wide range of upgradable components, so it can grow with your needs over time. These include electrolytic sample preparation and electrolytic water purification Automated Eluent Generation (EG™) - Eliminate human errors associated with manual eluent preparation and improve method reproducibility from operator-to-operator and lab-to-lab. The Dionex Integrion IC system brings consistent results to all your applications. In this case, 100 injections of a simple sugar mixture are highly reproducible. Wide range of column support - Choose the column sizes you need for your applications, including smaller-particle-size 4 µm columns that provide faster run times and better resolution. Flexibility – two different models to choose from and option to choose right detector or column format for your application
