WHY MEASURE INVERT SUGAR ? – BACKGROUND Inverted sugar syrup, also called invert syrup is essentially sugar in water. Hydrolytic saccharification of sucrose produces invert sugar, a mixture of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose. The mixture rotates light in the opposite direction of the original sugar, which is why it’s referred to as invert sugar. […]
