Abstract
The application to the determination of sulfite in dried vegetables by the microbial biosensor method was examined. The recovery of added su lfite from 4 samples was more than 86%. The total sulfite was not dete cted by the microbial biosensor method. On the other hand, the modifie d Rankine's titration method was difficult to apply to determine sulfi te in dried vegetables because of influence by sulfur compounds in dri ed vegetables. These results indicated that the microbial biosensor me thod was applicable to the determination of sulfite in dried vegetable s including sulfur compounds.
