Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, spray-drying sugar products is difficult due to stickiness and clumping problems that occur when drying sugar-rich liquids that contain large amounts of low molecular weight carbohydrates (LMWCs) such as Compound has a low glass transition temperature, making the product tacky at ambient or elevated temperatures
Viscosity reduces powder flow and productivity while also causing equipment clogging
There can also be problems when the product is heated above its glass transition temperature during drying

example 1

[0306] Example 1 - Spray-dried sugar cane juice and molasses with various low GI HMWCs

[0307] Solutions were prepared according to Table 1. A spray-dried solution was produced at a ratio of 1 g of HMWC to 1 g of sucrose in the form of molasses or sugar cane juice. These solutions were then made to a concentration of 20% total solids and sprayed in 400 or 500 ml quantities.

[0310]

[0311] *These solutions dissolve completely but form suspensions after overnight refrigeration.

[0312] The dextrins used were digesta-resistant dextrin derivatives.

[0322] Example 2 - Analysis of polyphenol content in amorphous sugar, cane juice or molasses

[0323] Accurately weigh 40g of sample into a 100ml volumetric flask. About 40 ml of distilled water was added and the flask was stirred until the sample was completely dissolved, after which time the solution was made up to the final volume with distilled water. Polyphenol analysis is based on the Folin-Ciocalteu method. Briefly, 50 μL aliquots of appropriately diluted raw sugar solutions were added to test tubes, followed by 650 μL of distilled water. A 50 μL aliquot of Folin-Ciocalteu reagent was added to the mixture and shaken. After 5 min, add 500 μL of 7% Na with mixing 2 CO 3 solution. Absorbance at 750 nm was recorded after 90 min at room temperature. A standard curve was drawn using standard solutions of catechins (0-250 mg / L). Sample results are expressed as mg of catechin equivalent (CE) per 100 g of original sample. The absorbance of each sample sugar was determine...

[0326] Example 3 - Analysis of reducing sugar content in amorphous sugar, sugar cane juice or molasses

[0327] There are several qualitative tests that can be used to determine the amount of reducing sugars in a sample. Copper(II) ions in aqueous sodium citrate or aqueous sodium tartrate can react with the sample. Reducing sugars convert copper(II) to copper(I), which forms quantifiable precipitates of copper(I) oxide.

[0328] An alternative is to react 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid with the sample. A reducing sugar will react with this reagent to form 3-amino-5-nitrosalicylic acid. The amount of 3-amino-5-nitrosalicylic acid can be measured spectrophotometrically and the results used to quantify the amount of reducing sugars present in the sample.
