Abstract:

Iodometric method was improved to prevent the interference of glucose in determination of 2-keto-D-gluconic acid  (2KGA) in fermentation broth. The results revealed a good linear relationship among the volumes of I2 standard solution consumed and concentrations of 2-keto-D-gluconic acid and glucose (R2>0.9999). The average recovery was 95.68% with the relative standard deviation (RSD) of 1.35% (n=5). The method developed here had good accuracy, stability and reproducibility, and was easily operated, hereby could be used for the determination of concentrations of 2-keto-D-gluconic acid in fermentation broth.

Key words: 2-keto-D-gluconic acid, glucose, fermentation broth, iodometry
