The presence of maltotriose in some of the samples is associated to the simultaneous presence of glucose and maltose. According to literature,
it can be ascribed to the addition of glucose syrup. Its concentration is
lower than that of glucose and maltose, in a given sample. As it can be
observed, the concentrations found were not significantly different
for both detectors. Exemplary chromatograms obtained for a ketchup,
mint syrup, strawberry covering and natural honey samples using
C-CAD and ELSD are depicted in Fig. 2.
