摘要: Indonesian coconut sugar (n = 109 samples) from different local producers was analyzed over a 2-year period. A mean delta C-13 value of - 25.6 parts per thousand +/- 0.4 parts per thousand was determined for unadulterated (pure) coconut sugar. Seasonal climatic differences of up to +/- 0.4 parts per thousand increase the standard deviations of coconut sugar (- 25.6 parts per thousand +/- 0.8 parts per thousand). Up to 5% w/v of cane sugar is often added during production for seeding purposes which could increase the final coconut sugar delta C-13 values by up to 0.7 parts per thousand. Excess C4 sugar (cane or corn sugar) was suggested in 31 coconut sugar samples due to more positive delta C-13 values (> - 24.8 parts per thousand). More negative coconut sugar delta C-13 values (< - 26.4 parts per thousand) may indicate additives, such as mangosteen sap, commonly used to prevent fermentation of the sugar syrup. A maximum acceptable delta C-13 value of - 24.1 parts per thousand for coconut sugar is proposed which cumulatively accounts for climatic variability and accepted industry seeding practices.
