Abstract
An immunoassay for the detection of beet sugar adulteration of sugar-containing materials such as fruit juices and fruit juice concentrates utilizes antibodies to proteinaceous components of beet sugar. These proteinaceous components have been found in all samples of beet sugar, tested, regardless of source or degree of refinement; these proteinaceous components have also been found in both crystal and invert sugars.
