International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis

Index International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis

The International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis (ICUMSA) is an international standards body, founded in 1897, that publishes detailed laboratory procedures for the analysis of sugar. [1]

Copper

Copper is a chemical element with symbol Cu (from cuprum) and atomic number 29.

Density

The density, or more precisely, the volumetric mass density, of a substance is its mass per unit volume.

New!!: International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis and Density · See more »

Fructose

Fructose, or fruit sugar, is a simple ketonic monosaccharide found in many plants, where it is often bonded to glucose to form the disaccharide sucrose.

Glucose

Glucose is a simple sugar with the molecular formula C6H12O6.

New!!: International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis and Glucose · See more »

Inverted sugar syrup

Invert(ed) sugar (syrup) is an edible mixture of two simple sugars—glucose and fructose—that is made by heating sucrose (table sugar) with water.

Molar attenuation coefficient

The molar attenuation coefficient is a measurement of how strongly a chemical species attenuates light at a given wavelength.

Molasses

Molasses, or black treacle (British, for human consumption; known as molasses otherwise), is a viscous product resulting from refining sugarcane or sugar beets into sugar.

Polarimetry

Polarimetry is the measurement and interpretation of the polarization of transverse waves, most notably electromagnetic waves, such as radio or light waves.

Reducing sugar

A reducing sugar is any sugar that is capable of acting as a reducing agent because it has a free aldehyde group or a free ketone group.

New!!: International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis and Reducing sugar · See more »

Refractometry

Refractometry is the analytical method of measuring substances' refractive index (one of their fundamental physical properties) in order to, for example, assess their composition or purity.

Standards organization

A standards organization, standards body, standards developing organization (SDO), or standards setting organization (SSO) is an organization whose primary activities are developing, coordinating, promulgating, revising, amending, reissuing, interpreting, or otherwise producing technical standards that are intended to address the needs of a group of affected adopters.

Sucrose

Sucrose is common table sugar.

Sugar

Sugar is the generic name for sweet-tasting, soluble carbohydrates, many of which are used in food.

New!!: International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis and Sugar · See more »

Sugar beet

A sugar beet is a plant whose root contains a high concentration of sucrose and which is grown commercially for sugar production.

New!!: International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis and Sugar beet · See more »

Sugarcane

Sugarcane, or sugar cane, are several species of tall perennial true grasses of the genus Saccharum, tribe Andropogoneae, native to the warm temperate to tropical regions of South and Southeast Asia, Polynesia and Melanesia, and used for sugar production.
