Abstract

Alcohol is a highly prevalent substance that has multiple forms and trends across cultures. Alcoholic beverages vary considerably in ethyl alcohol content and their primary ingredient. With the determination of alcohol content in various beverages, both in fermented and distilled the potency of beverages can be established. For this, many different methods of measuring alcohol content have arisen. A novel method for alcohol quantitation is direct injection Gas Chromatography (GC-FID) using megapore pack column (carbowax 10%, 2 m x 0.12 mm) referring internal standard Acetone. The method effectively and efficiently determines the alcoholic concentration (% v/v) with little preparations in a wide variety of matrices with prominent outcomes in lesser time.

Keywords: Direct injection Gas Chromatography; Alcoholic Beverages; Pure Ethyl alcohol; Quantitative analysis.
