Analysis of Saccharin Sodium
August 24, 2022
Introduction
The use of commercial sweeteners in the manufacture of food and drinks is strictly regulated by agencies such as the FDA. This application note demonstrates a robust method for the analysis of saccharin (sodium salt), described in a Food Additive Test Method posted in an annotation of the Food Hygiene Law.
