sukkerprofiler
Sukkerprofiler, or sugar profiling, refers to the analytical practice of characterizing and quantifying sugars and related sweet compounds in a sample. The approach is used in food science, nutrition, and metabolomics to determine the composition and abundance of monosaccharides, disaccharides, sugar alcohols, and related derivatives. The goal is to understand sweetness drivers, nutritional attributes, processing effects, and authenticity.
Analytical methods commonly employed include high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with refractive index or evaporative light scattering
Applications span quality control and labeling in the food industry, detection of sugar adulteration, assessment of
Interpreting results requires calibration with relevant standards, appropriate internal controls, and consideration of matrix effects. Limitations
