Gas Chromatography-Pyrolysis -Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry Applied to the Authenticity of Whiskey Production Methods - Research finder

Abstract:: The objective of this project was to develop robust isotopic methods to investigate two types of adulteration of Scotch whisky, i.e. the substitution of alcohol derived from a cereal based source with that from a cheaper non-cereal based source (e.g. beet or cane molasses) and the addition of flavourings, such as vanillin, to disguise a lack of maturity.
