The invention relates to the technical field of molasses
sugar content detection, and discloses a method for detecting molasses
sugar content by combining microbial
fermentation with a
refractometer, and the method comprises the following steps: S1, preparing
reagent materials; s2, diluting the permeophilic
yeast suspension and sterile normal
saline according to a ratio of 1: 10; s3, treating a molasses sample to be detected; s4, setting a measuring
pipe; s5, setting a control tube; and S6, determination: calculating the
sugar content of the molasses according to a formula X sugar content = (X0-X1) * V / m. Compared with a traditional
polysaccharide detection kit method, the method has the advantages that the detection time is greatly shortened, long enzymolysis time,
standard curve making and OD value detection time are not needed, only simple instruments such as a
refractometer are used, and the method for detecting the sugar content of the molasses is extremely low in cost and relatively high in efficiency, and has a wide application prospect. The method has excellent accuracy and stability, is low in
detection threshold, and can be widely applied to molasses production, transaction and
processing industries.
