- Abstract:
- The Association of Official Analytical Chemists method for the determination of C4 sugars in honey [AOAC method 991.41] has been successfully adapted for palm sugar analysis. Assessment of the carbon stable isotope composition of bulk palm sugar and the extracted protein fraction has shown that significant quantities of exogenous cane or corn derived sugars are being used to adulterate and extend retail products on sale in the UK
