3.1 Sensory requirements The sensory requirements shall comply with the provisions of Table 1. 3.2 Physicochemical indicators The physicochemical indicators shall comply with the provisions of Table 2.Annex A
Test methods A.1 General Unless otherwise specified, the reagents and water used in this Standard refer to analytical grade reagents and grade 3 water as specified in GB/T 6682.Unless otherwise specified, the standard solutions, standard solutions for impurity determination, preparations, and products used in the tests shall be prepared according to the provisions of GB/T 601, GB/T 602, and GB/T 603.Unless otherwise specified, the solutions used in the tests are aqueous solutions. A.2 Identification tests A.2.1 Reagents and materials A.2.1.1 Pyridine. A.2.1.2 Glacial acetic acid. A.2.1.3 Potassium ferricyanide solution. Weigh 1 g of potassium ferricyanide [K3Fe(CN)6] and dissolve it in 10 mL of water. This solution shall be prepared before use. A.2.2 Identification methods A.2.2.1 Identification of citrate Weigh 1 g of sample, add 10 mL of water to prepare a 100 mg/mL sample solution, add 15 mL of pyridine and 5 mL of glacial acetic acid, shake; the solution turns pale red. A.2.2.2 Identification of ferrous salt Weigh 1 g of sample, add 10 mL of water to prepare a 100 mg/mL sample solution, add an appropriate amount of potassium ferricyanide solution; a deep blue precipitate forms. A.3 Determination of ferrous iron content (Fe) A.3.1 Method summary In acidic medium, titrate with cerium sulfate standard solution, using 1,10- phenanthroline-ferrous indicator solution to indicate the endpoint. A.3.2 Reagents and materials A.3.2.1 Phosphoric acid. ......Source: Above contents are excerpted from the full-copy PDF -- translated/reviewed by: www.ChineseStandard.net / Wayne Zheng et al.
