Determination of Methyl Alcohol

Methyl alcohol has become a topic that we hear more and attract attention with fake alcohol news in recent years. When wood alcohol or methyl alcohol, more commonly known as methanol, is consumed, even a small amount has the effect of blinding people. For this reason, Methyl Alcohol Determination is carried out in many products, especially in alcoholic beverages.

Basically, methanol is naturally present in fermented products to a certain extent. However, 50-75 g of methyl alcohol is considered a lethal dose. Especially in alcoholic beverages, methyl alcohol control should be carried out regularly and in a controlled manner. Symptoms that may occur with methyl alcohol poisoning:

  • Heart and muscle weakness
  • cramps and tremors
  • Visual impairment and blindness

Due to the effects listed above, detecting the presence of methyl alcohol in foods is considered an important test parameter. "Determination of Methyl Alcohol" in alcoholic beverages is carried out safely in the accredited and authorized Nanolab Food Analysis Laboratory.
