AU202: A Fast Method for Sugar Analysis of Instant Coffee Samples

Instrument Type: IC

The current study updates the fast method described in AN280 with a Dionex CarboPac SA10-4 μm column. Due to the smaller particle size, this column provides more efficient peaks and better resolution, making the sample analysis easier and more reliable. Moreover, the system used for the analysis is updated to the Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ Integrion™ HPIC™ system. This system combines flexibility and ease-of-use with high sensitivity and selectivity, bringing a new level of convenience and cost effectiveness to simple sugar analysis.

Determination of Carbohydrates in Coffee Using a New Fast HPAE-PAD Method

Instrument Type: IC

This record demonstrates a fast, high resolution HPAE-PAD method based on the method in AN280 for determining common sugars of interest in food and beverages. The IC instrument described in AN280, is updated to the Thermo Scientific Dionex Integrion HPIC system. The CarboPac SA10 column used in Application Note 280 is replaced with CarboPac SA10-4μm column which delivers faster and higher resolution separations. This method was applied to coffer samples.
