Описание (английский):

Reaction of a solution of iodine, sulphur dioxide, pyridine and 2-methoxyethanol with the water contained in the product dispersed previously in a mixture of methanol and formamide. The method described in ISO 760 is improved by determing the content directly using the special solvent.

Overview

EN ISO 5381:1994 specifies a reliable method for determining the water content in starch hydrolysis products using a modified Karl Fischer titration technique. Developed by the CEN and aligned with ISO 5381:1983, this standard improves upon previous Karl Fischer methods by enabling direct water determination in starch-derived products dispersed in a specific methanol/formamide solvent. Intended for use with all types of starch hydrolysis products, it ensures high accuracy and repeatability, making it essential for food, pharmaceutical, and starch-processing industries.

Key Topics

Modified Karl Fischer Method: Utilizes a stabilized reagent containing iodine, sulphur dioxide, pyridine, and 2-methoxyethanol for titration.

Sample Preparation: Requires dispersing starch hydrolysis products in a methanol and formamide mixture for optimal results.

Test Apparatus:

Karl Fischer titration equipment
Analytical balance
Special pipettes and syringes for liquid and viscous samples
Weighing tubes for solid samples

Standardization Protocol: Emphasizes daily reagent standardization and correction for extraction time, ensuring consistent water content measurement results.

Calculation and Reporting: Provides formulae for exact calculation of water content and requires clear test reporting, including method and sample identification.

Applications

Implementing EN ISO 5381:1994 is critical for:

Quality Control: Accurate water content determination supports product specification verification in the starch and food industry.

Process Optimization: Monitoring moisture levels helps optimize drying and packaging processes for starch hydrolysis products.

Regulatory Compliance: Fulfills legal and industry requirements for water content in food starch and carbohydrate-based products.

Research and Development: Facilitates precise research studies in product formulation and shelf life testing.

Industries that benefit most from this standard include:

Starch-processing plants

Food and beverage manufacturers

Pharmaceutical companies using modified starches

Analytical laboratories specializing in food and carbohydrate analysis

Related Standards

ISO 760: General method for water determination using Karl Fischer titration, providing the foundational approach for EN ISO 5381:1994.

ISO 565: Test sieves - Metal wire cloth, perforated metal plate, and electroformed sheet - Nominal sizes of openings, referenced for sample preparation.

ICS 67.180.20: International Classification for Standards category covering starch and derived products.

Practical Value

Adopting EN ISO 5381:1994 ensures:

Consistency in moisture analysis across international markets and laboratories

Improved product safety by controlling water content to prevent spoilage or degradation

Efficient production by minimizing waste and reducing the risk of batch failure due to incorrect water content

Credibility with accurate, standardized reporting and compliance with international trade requirements

This standard remains a reference document for professionals engaged in moisture determination in starch products, combining the precision of the Karl Fischer method with adaptations tailored to the complexities of starch hydrolysis matrices. Employing this method supports operational excellence and regulatory alignment in industries reliant on carbohydrate ingredient quality and integrity.
