Determination of Maltol and Ethyl Maltol in Apple Juice by Gas-Liquid Chromatography

S. W. Gunner, B Hand, M. R. Sahasrabudhe

Abstract

Abstract The qualitative and quantitative analysis of maltol and ethyl maltol in apple juice is described. The compounds were extracted with ethyl acetate and, after the addition of 2,6-dimethoxyphenol as internal standard, they were analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography as such or as their trimethylsilyl derivatives. Recovery of maltol and ethyl maltol was dependent on the method of isolation and ranged from 92 to 97.5% in the method of choice
