METHOD OF DETERMINING THE COLOUR TYPE, CONDUCTIVITY CONTENT AND THE COLOUR IN SOLUTION OF SUGAR (WHITE) AND EXTRA-WHITE SUGAR DEFINED IN POINTS 2 AND 3 OF PART A

‘white’ is reserved for: solution where the colour in solution does not exceed 25 ICUMSA units determined in accordance with the method specified in point (c) of Part B; sugar solution and invert sugar syrup of which: conductivity ash content does not exceed 0,1%, colour in solution does not exceed 25 ICUMSA units determined in accordance with the method specified in point (c) of Part B. ‘Point’ corresponds:

(a) in the case of the colour type, to 0,5 units, calculated by the Brunswick Institute for Agricultural and Sugar Industry as set out in Chapter A, paragraph 2, of the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 1265/69 of 1 July 1969 establishing determining the quality of sugar bought in by intervention

(b) in the case of ash content, to 0,0018% calculated by the International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar (ICUMSA) as set out in Chapter A, paragraph 1, of Regulation (EEC) No 1265/69;

(c) in the case of the colour in solution, to 7,5 units calculated ICUMSA method as set out in Chapter A, paragraph 3, of Regulation (EEC) No 1265/69.
