Classification of sugar syrup: high concentration syrups may retain shelf life without preservative, guiding product classification. The Chief Chemist concluded that sugar syrups, when prepared with purified water, selected sucrose and clean equipment, and maintained at a sufficient concentration, will retard microbial growth and may have shelf life without added preservative. Applicable synthetic syrup standards permit preparation with or without citric acid, prescribe a minimum concentration threshold, and limit additives to citric acid and permitted colours. The Board accepted this technical view for purposes of classification of intermediate syrups used in aerated water and ayurvedic medicine manufacture.
