Study on the effect of sugar canes and saccharin to the value of electrical impedance of apple cider manalagi (Malus sylvestris mill)

Saccharin additives addition as a substitute for natural sweeteners is done to reduce production costs. This paper will discuss the effect of sweetener on the electric impedance of apple cider. The electrical impedance spectroscopy method was applied to the sample using four electrodes. Electrical impedance measurements made by injecting 100 μA currents in samples within the chamber in the frequency up to 1 MHz. The results showed that the electrical impedance value of apple cider manalagi is 1721.166 Ω to 41.870 Ω. The effect of sugar cane s mass composition and saccharin mass added to apple cider can be observed well in low frequency up to 10 kHz. The electric impedance characteristic of the apple cider manalagi increases with the addition of sugar canes mass, whereas the electric impedance value of the apple juice manalagi decreases with the addition of saccharin mass.
