9. Copyright © 2006 Knovel Corporation Real-Life Application Scenario: A food manufacturing company plans to produce a new spice flavor by using an oleoresin (prepared by solvent extraction of ground spices). The food technologist in charge of the project plans to use acetone as the solvent for extraction, given its wide availability and economical cost. However, it is necessary when using chemicals in commercial food preparation to ensure the correct purity of the substances used. The food technologist would like to know the purity of acetone needed to meet acceptable standards, and what tests can be performed to measure its purity. Knovel can help. Knovel can help.
