ISO 10504:2013 describes a high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for measuring the composition of dextrose solutions, glucose syrups, fructose-containing syrups, hydrogenated glucose syrups, sorbitol, mannitol and maltitol. The constituents are mainly glucose, maltose, maltotriose, fructose, sorbitol, mannitol, maltitol and malto-oligosaccharides.
The use of a column packed with cation-exchange resin is essential.
