Proc. Fla. State Hort. Soc. 96: 313-315. 1983. ACCURATE COMPILATION OF brix , APPARENT SPECIFIC GRAVITY, APPARENT DENSITY, WEIGHT, AND POUNDS SOLIDS OF SUCROSE SOLUTIONS C. S. Chen Florida Department of Citrus, 700 Experiment Station Road, Lake Alfred, FL 33850 Abstract. On the basis of 2 official tables of brix and den sity data, new tables of brix and pounds solids were pre pared by the author by using computerized techniques. Ex tension of such techniques to retain the numbers at the best available accuracy is illustrated. A table for some selected brix values is presented. An application of the table to investigate the effect of one tenth of one brix measurement errors revealed that the variation of cost of solids would amount to dz million dollars for the citrus juices sold in 1981-82 season.
