Application: D-(+)-Cellobiose may be used as an analytical standard in the following:
•Training, testing, and external validation of the gradient retention model developed in ion chromatography using the artificial intelligence-quantitative structure retention relationship (QSRR) model approach.
•Amperometric detection of the analyte in anion-exchange chromatography using copper/cupric oxide nanostructured electrode.D-(+)-Cellobiose may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in caramel samples using gas-liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GLC-MS).
