Maple syrup season: chemists and mathematicians come to the sugar shack
Scientists at Université de Montréal join forces with Quebec's maple syrup producers to develop a rapid test that analyzes the quality of maple sap. Quebec is a leader in maple syrup production and its "liquid gold" is world-renowned for its quality. To maintain this high standard, the Quebec Maple Syrup Producers association has partnered with scientists at Université de Montréal to develop a portable test to predict the quality of the syrup based on the harvested sap.
