2.7. Analysis of the sugars used in muffin preparation
The analysis of the glucose content of the white beet sugar and
the raw cane sugar used in muffin preparation was performed as in
Trinder (1969).
The analysis of the elemental content of white (refined) beet
sugar and raw (unrefined) cane sugar was carried out using an
inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICPOES)
Vista MPX (Australia) after digestion of samples in a microwave
oven (CEM MARS 5), according to the method described by
Chojnacka, Michalak, Zielin´ ska, Górecka, and Górecki (2010).
