Kokuto samples purchased on the local market in Okinawa were named commercial Kokuto, containing raw sugar, molasses and corn syrup as its ingredients. This study is to examine the difference in chemical composition between native and commercial Kokuto and to evaluate their color profiles by Hunter's Lab values. Sucrose and moisture contents in native Kokuto were almost similar to those of commercial one. Ash content in native Kokuto (4.3%) showed six times of commercial one (0.7%). Reducing sugar content in native Kokuto (6.3%) was lower than that in commercial one (14.2%). Aconitic acid is an unique organic acid in sugar cane and Kokuto. Contents of the principal organic acids in native Kokuto were aconitic acid (4.2%) followed by malic acid (7.1%) and showed three to four times of commercial one. Color evaluation of Lab values showed more yellowish-red in commercial Kokuto than in native one. The results suggest that color evaluation and contents of ash, organic acids, and reducing sugar are useful indicators to differentiate between native and commercial Kokuto., 紀要論文}, pages = {123--127}, title = {含蜜糖および再生加工糖の化学成分と色差分析} }
