Abstract

A qualitative and quantitative method for analyzing a chemical composition for its carbohydrate content. An infrared spectrum of the composition produced in selected wave length ranges is compared with those produced from standard samples. Applications include analysis of fructose and dextrose in corn syrups and determination of Dextrose Equivalent (D.E.) of corn syrups.
