Abstrakt: This report describes the development of a methodology based on micellar electrokinetic chromatography for the separation of alcohols on chip-based systems aiming the determination of alcoholic content in whiskey samples. The separation conditions were optimized the best results were achieved using 50 mmolL -1 phosphate buffer containing 30 mmolL -1 sodium dodecyl sulfate. The alcoholic content was determined in 16 seized whiskey samples from 4 different brands as well as in the original samples. The methodology presented herein allowed the correct classification of 75% of the seized samples as adulterated and the data obtained did not statistically differ from those recorded by a reference technique. The proposed analytical approach emerges as a promising tool to provide a rapid screening of the beverages authenticity and it may be useful to be widely explored for the quality control.
