Deterioration of Sugarcane -  Levels of Dextran and Total Polysaccharides in Process Streams at Two Louisiana Sugar Factories

Coll, E.E., Roberts, E.J., et.al.  1978.  Tests were made on routine samples collected from two Louisiana sugar factories during the 1977 campaign. Dextran and total polysaccharides were determined on mixed juice, syrup, B-molasses, final molasses and raw sugar. A modification of the dextran haze assay was used to determine dextran and total polysaccharides were determined by a dialysis procedure.
