Removal of sugars in wastewater from food production through heterotrophic growth of Galdieria sulphuraria.
TL;DR: In this article, the removal of sugars in wastewater from fruit-salad production with Galdieria sulphuraria strain SAG 21.92 was analyzed, and it was demonstrated that high sugar concentrations in wastewater streams from food production processes can be significantly reduced with G. sulphurarium SAG21.92.

Global food losses and food waste: extent, causes and prevention.
TL;DR: The Swedish Institute for Food and Biotechnology (SIK) as mentioned in this paper conducted two studies on global food losses, one for high/medium-income countries and one for low income countries, to serve as a basis for the international congress Save Food!, 16-17 May 2011, at the international packaging industry fair Interpack2011 in Dusseldorf, Germany.

A colorimetric method for the determination of sugars.
TL;DR: Preliminary experiments showed that the anthrone and the α-naphthol sulphonate reagents give good results with pure sugar solutions, but the presence of only traces of solvents such as butanol, phenol and propionic acid used in the chromatographic separation of the sugars rendered them useless.
