Method Description:
Samples are extracted, components are converted to oximes, derivatized, and analyzed using gas chromatography. Calculations are based on response factors of known standards.
Additional Information:
This method determines the amounts of common sugar alcohols (sorbitol, maltitol, erythritol, xylitol, mannitol, isomalt, and lactitol) and simple sugars (fructose, galactose/glucose, sucrose, maltose, lactose, and trehalose) in foods. We recommend that this method be performed for all samples that contain or may contain sugar alcohols.
