Sulfites are chemical additives major role in the beverage industry, however, the excessive use of these additives can cause disease and its limit is a maximum of 0,7 mg/kg of body weight per day SO2. This study proposes a micro-batch-flow analyser (μFBA) for photometric determination of sulphites in beverages. The μFBA was built from the commercial urethane-acrylate resin and polymerized exhibiting photo of ultra-violet radiation. The photometric method for the determination of sulfites in beverages based on the reaction of salts of sulfites in an acid medium with formaldehyde solution subsequently reacted with pararosaniline hydrochloride solution giving finally, a complex of violet color with maximum absorption at 565 nm. The linear model of the calibration curve was validated by ANOVA, residual plot and left by the F test model. The detection limit was 0,08 mg L-1 and the relative standard deviation less than 1,5% (n = 3). A test precision assessed by recovery test (96,8% to 102,6%) was performed. The μFBA is potentially useful as an alternative to sulfites photometric determinations as parameters of quality of beverage and yield of 240 samples per hour, producing low consumption of sample and reagents. The results obtained by the proposed μFBA compared to the conventional method, no statistically significant differences in applying paired with a confidence level of 95% t-test
