Determination of the sweetener cyclamate using photometry
Suitable for beer-based beverages and NAB
Cyclamate reacts with sodium hypochlorite to form N,N-dichlorocyclohexylamine. The chlorine compounds are isolated through extraction with heptane and are washed free using excess chlorine. The UV absorption is measured at 314 nm.
Determination of the sweeteners aspartame, acesulfame and saccharin using HPLC
Suitable for NAB and beer-based beverages
Aspartame, acesulfame (also known as acesulfame K) and sodium-saccharin are separated on the matrix by means of HPLC and determined with UV detection.
Determination of neohesperidin dihydrochalcone using HPLC
Suitable for NAB and beer-based beverages
Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone is separated from the matrix by means of reversed phase HPLC and determined through UV detection.
Determination of the content of steviol glycosides and stevia products in beverages.
All mixed beer drinks and beverages in general.
The decarbonated and diluted sample is chromatographically separated on a polar-endcapped amino-HILIC phase and detected using a mass spectrometer with ESI source. The quantitative evaluation is carried out by external calibration.
