# Commission Regulation (EC) No 121/2008 of 11 February 2008 laying down the method of analysis for the determination of starch content in preparations of a kind used in animal feeding (CN code 2309), Division 6.6: Chromatography

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

HPLC is performed as conventionally for analysis of sugars. Because the samples are extracted with ethanol/water, glucose is the main sugar to be analysed. If the HPLC analysis shows traces of maltose, then this may indicate incomplete conversion of starch.
