ON THE ADULTERATION OF
LOZENGES.

The Lancet of this week contains a report on
the adulteration of sugar confectionery, a subject
just now possessed of much interest, in consequence
of the recent wholesale poisonings at Bradford. Of
50 samples submitted to analysis, at the most 11
only were genuine, while not less than 34 were
adulterated. The now notorious " daft" was
detected in 13 samples. together with, in most cases,
large proportions of flour. The flour was found in
33 of the samples, either separately, or together
with the " daft." The kinds of flour, or starch,
generally employed, are potato and wheat-flour,
but Indian corn-flour was present in several of the
articles, and, in one instance, sago-powder. The
extent of the adulteration varied greatly, from one-
fourth, one-third, to even nearly three-fourths.
The confectionery analysed consisted of lozenges
of various kinds (including, ginger, cayenne, and
peppermint), and Scotch mixture, several descrip-
tions of comfits, conversation cards, and many other
articles. The ordinary adulteration of comfits is
with wheat-flour, which is thus cunningly em-
ployed :—lt is not usually mixed equally with the
sugar, but the carraway, or other seeds, are first
coated thickly with the wheat-flour, and the sugar
s after wards added. The effect of this proceeding
s, that when put into the mouth, the sugar only
comes into contact with the tongue ; and hence
these comfits have at first all the sweetness of the
genuine comfits. This adulteration is easily dis-
covered, either by simply breaking the comfits cross-
ways, when the nucleus of wheat-flour may usually
be readily distinguished from the outer sugar por-
tion, or by placing them in water, when the sugar
will be dissolved, but the wheat-flour will remain,
retaining nearly the original size and form of the
comfits. All reference to the various pigMents em-
ployed to colour sugar confectionery is purposely
omitted. Many of these, it is known, possess
highly injurious and even poisonous properties, and,
had they been noticed in the report, fearful indeed
would have been the picture revealed of the adul-
teration of lozenges and confectionery in general.
The articles analysed were all purchased in the
metropolis within the last few days, and the names
and addresses of the vendors, many of them whole-
sale and manufacturing confectioners, are given in
the report.
