Antioxidants from rosemary were determined by the combined use of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) prior to reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) or micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC). The separation of antioxidants found in the SFE fractions was achieved by using a new MEKC method and a published HPLC procedure, both with diode array detection. The characterization of the different antioxidants was further done by HPLC-mass spectrometry. Advantages and drawbacks of HPLC and MEKC for analyzing the antioxidants found in the different extracts are discussed. From the results it is concluded that HPLC renders higher peak area and is better in its reproducibility than MEKC; both techniques provide similar analysis time reproducibility. The main advantage of MEKC is its much higher separation speed, which is demonstrated to be useful for the quick adjustment of SFE conditions, allowing rosemary fractions of higher antioxidative power to be obtained quickly. Moreover, the possibilities of this approach for following the degradation of antioxidants are discussed.  相似文献

Antioxidants from orange juice are isolated by the use of countercurrent supercritical fluid extraction (CC-SFE) and characterized by reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) and diode-array detection (DAD). A pilot-scale SFE plant equipped with a packed column has been employed for countercurrent extraction and fractionation of raw orange juice with carbon dioxide. Several experiments have been performed in order to study the effect of the countercurrent conditions on the content of antioxidative compounds. In this study, the main variable that has been considered is the solvent-to-feed ratio (S/F) because it plays an essential role in the extraction efficiency. The values tested covered a wide range of sample and solvent (CO(2)) flow rates. In each experimental run, two different extracted fractions and the residual nonextracted juice were obtained and characterized. Different flavonoids have been identified in the fractions obtained after CC-SFE. The possibility of using this process for antioxidant compounds enrichment is discussed.  相似文献

Carbohydrate analysis of 5 beet medium invert sugar (BMIS) samples and 10 pure orange juices was carried out using anion-exchange chromatography with a pulsed amperometric detector. This analysis revealed the presence of several oligosaccharides in BMIS that were in either low concentration or nonexistent in the orange juice samples. These oligosaccharides may be naturally present in sugar beets or synthesized during the acid and/or enzyme catalyzed hydrolysis of sucrose during the production of BMIS. BMIS was intentionally added to pure orange juice at levels of 5, 10, 15, and 20%. Subsequent liquid chromatographic (LC) analysis of these intentionally adulterated samples revealed that detection of 5% BMIS in orange juice was possible.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to develop an analytical procedure based on liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC–MS) for analysis of monomeric organic N compounds in soil extracts. To benchmark the developed LC–MS method it was compared with a capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry (CE–MS) method recently used for analysis of small organic N monomers in soil. The separation was optimized and analytical performance assessed with 69 purified standards, then the LC–MS method was used to analyse soil extracts. Sixty-two out of 69 standards were analysable by LC–MS with separation on a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography column. The seven compounds that could not be analysed were strongly cationic polyamines. Limits of detection for a 5 μL injection ranged between 0.002 and 0.38 μmol L−1, with the majority (49 out of 62) having limits of detection better than 0.05 μmol L−1. The overall profile and concentration of small organic N monomers in soil extracts was broadly similar between LC–MS and CE–MS, with the notable exception of four ureides that were detected by LC–MS only. In soil extracts that had been concentrated ten-fold the detection and quantification of (some) organic N compounds was compromised by the presence of large amounts of inorganic salts. The developed LC–MS method offered advantages and disadvantages relative to CE–MS, and a combination of the two methods would achieve the broadest possible coverage of organic N in soil extracts.  相似文献

Annatto preparations based on extracts of the seed of tropical bush Bixa orellana L consist of carotenoid-type pigments. Previous reports indicate that commercial annatto extracts have biological activities against microorganisms of significance to food fermentation, preservation, and safety. The objective of this study was to separate and identify the compound(s) responsible for the antimicrobial activity of annatto preparations. Commercial water-soluble annatto extracts were screened by thin-layer chromatography and bioautography followed by liquid chromatography/photodiode array/mass spectrometry (LC/PDA/MS) analysis of active fractions. Bioautography revealed two fractions with antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. LC/PDA/MS analysis of both fractions revealed 9'-cis-norbixin (UV(max) 460 and 489 nm) and all-trans-norbixin (UV(max) 287, 470, and 494 nm) as the major components. Structure confirmation was achieved by (1)H NMR spectroscopy. Results indicate that 9'-cis-norbixin and all-trans-norbixin are responsible for the antimicrobial properties of annatto.  相似文献

The sensorial quality of solid phase microextraction (SPME) flavor extracts from orange juice was measured by direct gas chromatogrphy-olfactometry (D-GC-O), a novel instrumental tool for evaluating odors from headspace extracts. In general, odor impressions emerging from SPME extracts poorly resembled that of the original orange juice. In an attempt to improve the sensorial quality of extracts, sample equilibration and exposure times were varied on Carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane (CAR/PDMS) and divinylbenzene/Carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane (DVB/CAR/PDMS) SPME fibers. Best sensorial results were obtained with the DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber exposed for the shortest time; a trained panel of eight assessors judged its odor as the most representative of the reference orange juice. The analysis of odor active compounds by classical GC-O accounted for odor characteristics revealed by D-GC-O. A principal component analysis (PCA) was applied on SPME and headspace extracts using flavor recoveries as variables. Interestingly, PCA discriminated samples according to their odor representations described by D-GC-O analysis. This paper provides the first comprehensive methodology to "smell" SPME extracts and "evaluate" their sensorial quality. This method will enable future investigations to further improve SPME performance.  相似文献

Water extracts were obtained from four types of soils (Brown Lowland soil, Yellow soil with manure application for 6 years, non-allophanic Andosol, and allophanic Andosol), and the organic matter in the water extracts was fractionated according to the solubility in acid and adsorption onto polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). For the water extracts and their fractions, the amounts of organic C, total N, and anthrone-reactive C (ARC) were analyzed, and high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) was carried out. The PVP-non-adsorbed fulvic acid (FA) fraction accounted for the largest proportion of the total water-soluble organic C, ranging from 52% for the Yellow soil to 96% for the allophanic Amdosol, followed by the PVP-adsorbed FA and humic acid (HA) fractions. The water extract of the allophanic Andosol was characterized by the lack of HA fraction and a small proportion of PVP-adsorbed FA fraction. For all the water extract samples, more than 90% of the ARC was recovered in the PVP-non-adsorbed FA fraction. The proportion of ARC in the total organic C in the fraction was also highest in the PVP-non-adsorbed FA fraction. The molecular weight (MW) of the humic substances (HS) at peak maximum was estimated at 1,300 Da for the water extracts and their fractions from the Brown Lowland soil and non-allophanic Andosol samples by HPSEC using polyethylene glycols as MW standards. Manure application increased the MW of HS in the HA and PVP-adsorbed FA fractions. On the other hand, only a small amount of HS was found in the water extract of the allophanic Andosol by HPSEC.  相似文献

The 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5mTHF) polyglutamates in citrus products were analyzed by capillary electrophoresis (CE) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Folate species were purified from citrus products and concentrated from 2- to 100-fold using combined folate-affinity chromatography and C18 extraction. Seven polyglutamyl 5mTHFs were found in most not-from-concentrate (NFC) orange juices (OJ) in total amounts of approximately 1 nmol/mL, with varying distributions of individual polyglutamates. Folate amounts and distributions were also measured in orange fractions, single-strength OJ from concentrate, NFC grapefruit juice, and citrus peel molasses. Models containing ascorbic acid had folate thermal degradation rates one-seventh that of models without ascorbic acid. Pasteurization studies demonstrated that folate loss was <2% for commercial OJ pasteurization conditions (i.e., 93 degrees C for 5 s, 88 degrees C for 15 s, and 82 degrees C for 30 s). Both methods were precise, reproducible, and potentially faster than traditional analytical procedures requiring enzymatic deconjugation and microbial assays.  相似文献

A method based on a gel permeation chromatography (GPC) extraction procedure combined with an additional cleanup by solid-phase extraction (SPE) on silica gel and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) detection has been validated for the analysis of seven glycidyl esters (GEs) including glycidyl laurate, myristate, palmitate, stearate, oleate, linoleate, and linolenate in various edible oils. This method was conjointly developed and validated by two different laboratories, using two different detection systems, a LC time of flight MS (LC-ToF-MS) and a LC triple-quadrupole MS (LC-MS/MS). The extraction procedure allowed targeting low contamination levels due to a highly efficient matrix removal from the 400 mg oil sample loaded on the GPC column and is suitable for routine analysis as 24 samples can be extracted in an automated and reproducible way every 12 h. GPC extraction combined with SPE cleanup and LC-MS/MS detection leads to a limit of quantification in oil samples between 50 and 100 μg/kg depending on the type of glycidyl ester. Recoveries ranged from 68 to 111% (average = 93%). Quantification was performed by automated standard addition on extracts to compensate matrix effects artifacts. To control recoveries of each sample four isotopically labeled GEs ((13)C(3) or (13)C(4)) were included in the method.  相似文献

Micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) was developed as a method for quantitative determination of gibberellic acid (GA3) in fermentation broth and commercial products, using 25 mM disodium tetraborate as a buffer at pH 9.2 and 100 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate as a micellar phase. The baseline resolution (Rs of GA3 from other compounds in fermentation broth was achieved with Rs > 2.5. The addition of methanol or acetonitrile in the MEKC buffer did not give a better resolution. Advantages of this MEKC method include high accuracy and precision and no sample preparation except for dilution and filtration.  相似文献

A capillary electrophoretic method, for the determination of antioxidants present in food, has been developed using mixed micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography. The buffer consists of sodium cholate (40 mM), sodium dodecyl sulfate (15 mM), 10% methanol, and 10 mM borate at pH 9.3. A separation was obtained for nine antioxidants (synthetic and natural) commonly found in food. High-performance liquid chromatography and capillary electrophoresis were applied to the analysis of sesame oil and wine. Ascorbic acid was identified in wine.  相似文献

Corn, peanut meal, and soybean meal samples were either untreated or oxidized with performic acid before hydrolysis; the amino acids were determined by cation exchange high performance liquid chromatography (LC) and conventional cation exchange LC using an amino acid analyzer (AAA). Reproducibility of each procedure was assessed by repeated injections of the same calibration standard solution over a period of several days. LC data were more precise with regard to coefficients of variation for amino acid retention times, but were more variable with regard to peak areas. Although some significant differences between methods were noted, feedstuff amino acid values obtained by LC and AAA compared very well. The only consistent differences observed within each feedstuff were that Phe and Tyr values were significantly lower when analyzed by LC compared with AAA. Results of this study suggest that modular LC instrumentation can be used to accurately and reproducibly analyze amino acids in feedstuff hydrolysates. Advantages of using ninhydrin derivatization for feedstuff analysis, as opposed to using o-phthalaldehyde or dansyl chloride, are discussed.  相似文献

Abstract

A neutral phosphate buffer (NPB) extraction method has been used to estimate the amount of available N in soil. However, the properties of soil NPB-extractable organic N have not been fully elucidated. The purpose of the present study was to characterize the properties of organic matter in the NPB extracts of soils. The NPB extracts were obtained from three soil samples, and the organic matter in the extracts was separated into three fractions according to its solubility in acid and adsorption onto polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). High-performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) with ultraviolet (UV) and fluorescence detections was applied to the NPB extracts and their fractions. The HPSEC analysis of the NPB extract revealed the presence of a single broad peak, irrespective of the detection methods. The broad peak was identified as humic substances using the on-flow measurements of UV absorption spectra and fluorescence emission spectra. Among the fractions, the PVP-non-adsorbed fulvic acid (FA) fraction accounted for the largest proportion of organic C or N in the NPB extract, followed by the PVP-adsorbed FA and humic acid (HA) fractions. The peak of humic substances was observed for all fractions using HPSEC with the on-flow measurement of UV absorption and fluorescence emission spectra. The molecular weight of the humic substances varied with each fraction. When the Coomassie Blue-reactive substances (CBRS) were quantified using a Bradford protein assay, they were detected in the NPB extract and almost half were distributed in the PVP-non-adsorbed FA fraction. However, humic substances were considered to be the main constituents of CBRS in the soil NPB extract because of their reactivity with Coomassie Blue and the absence of proteinaceous materials. Furthermore, an incubation experiment revealed that the organic matter available to microorganisms was included in the HA and PVP-non-adsorbed FA fractions. Based on the HPSEC analysis of the NPB extracts and their fractions, it was observed that the humic substances in the NPB extract, particularly in the HA and PVP-non-adsorbed FA fractions, were available to microorganisms.  相似文献

Wine is an important source of dietary antioxidants because of its phenolic compound content. The antioxidant activity (AA) of pure monomer substances present in wines, such as phenolic acids, flavanols, and anthocyanins, has already been described, but the AA of polymeric phenols is still unknown. In this study, we have fractionated a red wine by countercurrent chromatography (CCC) into four fractions: fraction 1, made up of polymeric compounds; fraction 2, containing malvidin-3-glucoside; fraction 3, containing peonidin-3-glucoside; and fraction 4, containing vitisin A. The AA of these fractions was determined by oxygen radical absorbance capacity and ferric reducing ability assays. The weight of fraction 1 was the largest, so this was the largest contributor to the AA of the wine. However, the antioxidant powers (muM Trolox/g fraction) of fractions 2-4 were similar and higher than that of fraction 1. We also determined AA before and after in vitro gastric and intestinal digestions. After gastric digestion, the AA was 100-1000 times higher than the original fraction values. Gallic acid was determined in gastric and intestinal digested fractions. After intestinal digestion, the concentrations of simple phenols, such as caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid, and protocatechualdehyde, increased as they were released from the fractions under our conditions. Protocatechuic acid was determined in more intestinal digested fractions than in gastric digested fractions. These results partly explain the increase in AA after the digestion and indicate the relevance of polymeric polyphenolic compounds as precursors of smaller molecules with biological activity.  相似文献

An isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed for routine analysis of the main carotenoids related to the color of orange juice, using a more selective wavelength (486 nm) in which the absorption in the red-orange region of the visible spectra is maximum. Separation was carried out using as the mobile phase the mixture methanol:acetonitrile:methylene chloride:water (50:30:15:5, v/v/v/v), to which small amounts of butylated hydroxytoluene and triethylamine were added (0.1%). Identification was made by comparison either with standards obtained by thin-layer chromatography or with spectral data previously reported. The reproducibility of the method was remarkable; coefficients of variation for the most polar xanthophylls were under 1 and 4% for retention times and areas, respectively. Its application to Valencia late ultrafrozen orange juices has shown that major carotenoids are lutein + zeaxanthin (36%), lutein 5,6-epoxide (16%), antheraxanthin (14%), and beta-cryptoxanthin (12%).  相似文献

In the present work, the ability of a LC x LC-DAD/APCI-MS method developed at this laboratory to identify the native composition of carotenoid in an extremely complex matrix such as red orange essential oil was demonstrated. To carry out this task, two independent and orthogonal separation mechanisms were coupled through a 10-port switching valve that simultaneously collected the eluent from a microbore cyano column used as the first dimension in normal phase mode and injected it to a conventional reversed phase monolithic C(18) column in the second dimension separation. By using this novel analytical technique together with the use of DAD and APCI-MS detectors it was possible to identify in the sample, without the need of any pretreatment, 40 different carotenoids. Among them, 16 carotenoid monoesters were identified, mainly beta-cryptoxanthin palmitate (C(16:0)), myristate (C(14:0)), and laureate (C(12:0)) as well as several lutein, violaxanthin, antheraxanthin, and luteoxanthin monoesters. Moreover, 21 carotenoid diesters composed by several antheraxanthin, luteoxanthin, violaxanthin, and auroxanthin diesters were found in the native carotenoid composition of the orange oil. The main carotenoid diesters were the laureate palmitate (C(12:0), C(16:0)), myristate palmitate (C(14:0), C(16:0)), and dipalmitate (C(16:0), C(16:0)) diesters, although other diesters were also identified. Besides, two different free carotenes, zeta-carotene and phytofluene, and a xanthophyll, lutein, were also determined. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first time that carotenoid diesters are described and identified in orange essential oil. Likewise, it has been demonstrated that the LC x LC approach proposed in this study is capable of coping with the direct analysis and identification of a complex natural source of carotenoids such as the orange.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to obtain new information on antioxidant compounds in white wines. For this purpose, white wine degradation was promoted by a forced aged protocol, and six normally aged white wines from different vintages were analyzed. Both normal and forced aged wines were sequentially extracted using hexane and ethyl acetate. Apolar antioxidants were removed using hexane, and polar antioxidants were extracted with ethyl acetate. This last residue was subject to partial re-extraction with hexane and acetone. The antioxidant capacity of the wines and of each fraction was evaluated by two free radical methods, ABTS and DPPH. Normal aging provides a decrease in the total antioxidant capacity of wines. The antioxidant activity of ethyl acetate/acetone extracts was approximately 95% higher than that found for the hexane extracts. Concerning the forced aged wines, results showed that the wine submitted to a temperature of 60 degrees C for 21 days had higher antioxidant activity than that submitted to a temperature of 20 degrees C. With regard to the ethyl acetate/acetone extracts, oxygen and temperature treatment leads to a decrease in their antioxidant activity. NMR analysis was performed in the highest antioxidant capacity organic fractions (ethyl acetate/acetone extracts) and in the aqueous fraction of the control wine (T = 20 degrees C), in order to attempt the characterization of species involved in oxygen protection. Possible structures of antioxidant compounds in white wines were proposed. Two of these are tyrosol-like structures. This molecule is a well-known phenolic compound in wine, and it is reported to have antioxidative effects.  相似文献

Orange peel molasses, a byproduct of juice production, contains high concentrations of phenols, including numerous flavanone and flavone glycosides, polymethoxylated flavones, hydroxycinnamates, and other miscellaneous phenolic glycosides and amines. Extensive fractionation of these phenols was achieved by adsorption, ion exchange, and size exclusion chromatography. Size exclusion chromatography effectively separated the different classes of flavonoids in ultrafiltered molasses, including the polymethoxylated flavones, flavanone-O-trisaccharides, flavanone- and flavone-O-disaccharides, and, finally, flavone-C-glycosides. Mass spectral analysis of the early-eluting flavonoid fractions off the size exclusion column revealed a broad collection of minor-occurring flavone glycosides, which included, in part, glycosides of limocitrin, limocitrol, and chrysoeriol. Most hydroxycinnamates in the molasses were recovered by ion exchange chromatography, which also facilitated the recovery of fractions containing many other miscellaneous phenols. Total antioxidant levels and total phenolic contents were measured for the separate categories of phenols in the molasses. Inhibition of the superoxide anion reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium showed that a significant amount of the total antioxidant activity in orange peel molasses was attributable to minor-occurring flavones. The miscellaneous phenolic-containing fractions, in which a large portion of the total phenolic content in molasses occurred, also constituted a major portion of the total antioxidants in ultrafiltered molasses.  相似文献

Oxyfluorfen and oxyfluorfen amine were determined by liquid chromatography (LC) with ultraviolet (UV) and photoconductivity detection (PCD). A simple extraction procedure acceptably recovered both analytes from garbanzo beans over a wide range of fortifications (0.05 to 20 ppm) (83 +/- 4 for oxyfluorfen; 85 +/- 4 for oxyfluorfen amine). Percent recoveries decreased slightly as the fortification level decreased. Both analytes could be determined simultaneously at a concentration greater than 0.2 ppm in garbanzo beans. Detection limits were 3 ng for oxyfluorfen and 100 ng for oxyfluorfen amine using LC/UV, and 12 ng for both oxyfluorfen and oxyfluorfen amine with LC/PCD. Different knitted reaction coils and photoreactors were evaluated. Photoproduct yields and identification were determined by ion chromatography. The LC/PCD method measures oxyfluorfen and oxyfluorfen amine separately and has a shorter analysis time, while the standard method using gas chromatography measures total residues and is more sensitive.  相似文献

A new method based on partial filling micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) for the quantitative determination of Sudan dyes (I, II, III, and IV) in chilli sauces is presented. The separation is achieved filling 25% of the capillary with a MEKC buffer composed of 40 mM NH(4)HCO(3), 25 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate, and 32.5% (v/v) acetonitrile (ACN). The rest of the capillary is filled using a capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) buffer composed of 40 mM NH(4)HCO(3) and 32.5% (v/v) ACN. Under optimized conditions, the azo dyes are baseline separated in less than 8 min with limits of detection ranging from 0.57 to 0.71 μg mL(-1) (S/N > 3). Using an internal standard, the repeatability of the quantitative determination is improved almost four times. The applicability of the method for rapid screening and determination of Sudan dyes is corroborated by analyzing spiked chilli sauce samples with recoveries from 85 to 99%. The reported conditions are demonstrated to be compatible with mass spectrometry detection.  相似文献
