  Abstract:  SIRA of carbon has developed rapidly into a powerful analytical technique in food industry. An isotopic analysis of 13C frequently will provide valuable information about the source (sources) of the carbon. Carbon SIRA has found broad applications in the fruit juice industry where isotopic standards of identity are firmly established for apple juice and orange juice, and guard against the addition of sugars from corn or cane sources. Isotopic standards to assure the quality of honey and pure maple syrup are also well established. Governmental agencies use the standards for detecting fraudulent products, while industry uses the isotopic method for quality assurance.
