I.
Reagents
(a)
Laboratory water.—
ASTM Type 1 water.
(b)
NaOH solution
.—50%, w/w (Fisher Part No. SS254-500
or equivalent). If an alternate vendor is selected, it is imperative
that the carbonate level be equivalent to or less than Fisher
(≤0.10%).

Note
: This reagent has been discontinued by Sigma. Alternate
suppliers include: Carbosynth (Part No. MG05213), MP
Biomedicals (Part No. 05207893), and Cedarlane Labs (Part
No. 157755 or 0520789380).
(f)

(j)
Fructanase.—
Megazyme Part No. E-FRMXPD, or
equivalent.
(k)
Sucrase.—
Megazyme Part No. E-SUCR. Demonstration
of equivalent absence of activity toward fructan material is
required for any substitutions.
J. Preparation of Standards and Solutions
(a)
Fructose stock solution 100 µg/mL.—
Weigh 0.05 ±
0.0025 g fructose reference material and transfer to a 500 mL
volumetric. Bring to volume with laboratory water.
(b)
Glucoheptose IS
.—Weigh 0.1 ± 0.005 g of glucoheptose
and transfer to a 100 mL volumetric. Bring to volume with
laboratory water. It is recommended to portion out aliquots of
this solution to avoid multiple freeze thaw cycles and extend
useful life of reagent. Store frozen at –20°C for up to 6 months.
