Jaggery testing lab
What is sugar and jaggery testing?
Sugar and jaggery testing is the laboratory analysis of sugar and jaggery for sucrose and reducing sugars, moisture, sulphur dioxide, colour, insoluble matter and adulterants, to show they are genuine and meet the FSSAI standard.
Jaggery and sugar may contain excess sulphur dioxide from clarification, added colours, washing soda or other adulterants, and jaggery can spoil if its moisture is too high. FSSAI sets detailed standards for sugar and jaggery products.
Accurate Universal Laboratories Pvt. Ltd. tests sugar, jaggery, jaggery powder and sugar products for quality and safety parameters using chromatographic and standard chemical methods.
