Brix Dependent Clarity Monitoring

     Pacalda, L.D., Acoyong, D.P., et.al. 1992.   New method is proposed which reads clarity as percent transmittance (%T) at 720nm wavelength setting of spectrophotometer and using a 1-cm(I.D.) cuvette. The apparent %T is adjusted in accordance with the brix hence safeguarding any deliberate effort to adulterate the sample with water to obtain high Kopke clarity and in cases where there is a large fluctuation of sample brix during the process.
