An automated macro Kjeldahl instrument determines per cent protein at the rate of 20 samples/hr. The methodology involved is similar to the present official final action Kjeldahl method, sec. 7.016. The 2 methods were compared in a collaborative study. Sixteen animal feeds, 4 meats, tryptophan, ammonium dihydrogen phosphate NBS standard, and ammonium sulfate primary standard were analyzed by the participating laboratories. The data were agreement between the 2 methods. The automated method has been adopted as official first action for the determination of crude protein in feeds, plants, and cereal foods.  相似文献

The vitamin C content of several fresh fruit and vegetables was determined by a liquid chromatographic (LC) method which gave simultaneous separate values for ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) and by the official AOAC methods of microfluorometry and dye-titration. The levels of ascorbic acid obtained by LC and dye-titration were in good agreement, except for a few colored products where it was difficult to determine the end point of the titration. The combined values for ascorbic acid and DHA obtained by LC and microfluorometry were in agreement for most produce, but for about one-third of the samples, the values obtained by microfluorometry were significantly higher.  相似文献

A simple method is presented for determination of menadione in vitamin premixes and feedstuffs by normal-phase liquid chromatography (LC). Vitamin K3 is extracted and converted to free menadione, which can be determined directly by LC analysis. Peak area or height is measured at 251 nm, and menadione is quantitated by comparison with the working standard. Menadione can be estimated with a detection limit of 2.5 ppm. Recoveries for premixes ranged from 97.3 to 98.3% and for feedstuffs from 93.7 to 96.8%. The method allows the assay of all commercial K3 compounds in pure or stabilized form and is applicable to a wide variety of feeds and premixes.  相似文献

Products of animal origin such as meat meal were commonly used as sources of protein and amino acids for the production of compound feeds. Because the feeding of such products is prohibited in Germany, the official feedstuff control of the government must evaluate feeds for the forbidden use of products of animal origin. Microscope examination is the official method to prove animal-originated adulterations of feeds. This paper proposes a high-performance liquid chromatography method for the determination of the dipeptide carnosine and related dipeptides (anserine and balenine) and shows the dependence of the contents of anserine, balenine, and carnosine in compound feeds on the content of meat meal in feeds. The presented method can complete and confirm the result of the microscopic method for evidence of components of animal origin in feeds.  相似文献

Vitamin D2 or vitamin D3 is determined by liquid chromatography (LC) in milk and infant formula. Vitamin D is extracted from the saponified sample, passed through an amino-cyano LC cleanup column to remove major interferences, and quantitated using normal phase LC. Within-day precision is 4.5% relative standard deviation (RSD); the overall method RSD (reflecting technician-to-technician, day-to-day, and within-day variability) is 7.7%. Overspike recoveries averaged 97% for milk, 98% for milk-based infant formula, and 93% for soy-based infant formula. The performance of the method is compared with that of the official AOAC vitamin D method (rat bioassay). The method is applicable to the determination of vitamin D in milk and in the major milk- and soy-based infant formulas available in the United States. The method can quantitate (but not distinguish) either vitamin D2 or vitamin D3. The method is applicable to milk and infant formula samples containing between 100 and 1500 IU vitamin D/L. Sample throughput is between 4 and 8 replicates per day.  相似文献

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for vitamin D in pet foods and feeds at low concentrations (2-8 IU/g = 50-200 ppb) was studied collaboratively. The procedure consists of the following purification steps: saponification, extraction of the unsaponifiable fraction, chromatography on alumina, cleanup on reverse phase HPLC, and quantitation with straight phase HPLC. The original method, developed by Knapstein, was simplified by deleting the quantitative TLC step. Six coded samples were distributed to 31 laboratories, along with a known sample containing 15 IU/g to allow practice of the rather complicated procedure. Eighteen collaborators returned their results. Results for the spiked samples show good recovery. The estimates of repeatability and reproducibility are 0.96 and 2.2 IU/g for spiked samples and 1.5 and 3.1 IU/g for commercial samples, respectively, which are considered acceptable for these low concentrations. The method has been adopted official first action.  相似文献

Two automated fluorometric methods were compared with the official AOAC methods for determining vitamin C in fortified ready-to-eat cereals, fruits, vegetables, baby foods, flour products, pet foods, meats, frozen dinners, juices, and nutritional health bars. Each sample was analyzed in duplicate on 2 days and included a recovery study on all products. Egberg's semiautomated method (Method 1) and Roy's automated method (Method 2) were compared with the manual AOAC tritrimetric and fluorometric methods. The correlation factor for Methods 1 and 2 were 0.999 and 0.979, respectively, when compared with the AOAC methods. The recovery study showed average recoveries of 97.8% for Method 1, 99.3% for Method 2, and 100.6% for the AOAC methods. The results suggest that Method 1 is the method of choice for the majority of the products analyzed.  相似文献

Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is believed to be an important factor for mammalian growth and development and has, therefore, been declared a vitamin by some researchers. However, this issue remains controversial, and from a nutritional viewpoint, accurate determination of PQQ levels in a variety of foods is very important. Here, we describe a simple, highly sensitive, and highly selective method for quantitative analysis of PQQ. Liquid foods or aqueous extracts of solid foods were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with electrospray-ionization (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). (15)N-labeled PQQ was added to the samples as an internal standard. Quantitative analyses of PQQ were performed by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) with LC/MS/MS. Free PQQ was detected in almost all food samples in the range 0.19-7.02 ng per g fresh weight (for solid foods) or per mL (liquid foods). This method will enable the rapid and simple determination of PQQ levels in many samples.  相似文献

The official final action method, 42.028--42.032, for determining amprolium in feeds was modified by a change in the preparation of aluminum oxide for chromatography. A premix containing 0.5% amprolium was collaboratively studied by the modified and the official methods. Compared with the modified method, 87.7% of the drug was recovered from the premix by using the official method. The modification makes possible the assay of premixes as well as finished feeds. The official final action method has been modified to incorporate this change.  相似文献

A simplified liquid chromatographic (LC) method for determining vitamin D in vitamin AD concentrates (greater than or equal to 5000 IU vitamin D/g) was collaboratively studied. In the simplified method, the 2 columns specified in AOAC LC method 43.101-43.109 are replaced by a single column, which separates the vitamin D isomers and the vitamin A esters. The procedure for oils includes dissolution and quantitation by normal phase LC. Dry multivitamin concentrates and aqueous dispersions are treated with an enzyme system and the vitamins are extracted with n-pentane. Six coded samples were distributed to 16 laboratories; 15 collaborators returned their results. Estimates of repeatability and reproducibility for the oil samples were 1.1 and 3.1%, respectively; for the high-level concentrated dry preparation 1.4 and 3.9% and for the low-level concentrated dry preparation 1.3 and 11.4%, respectively. These values are a considerable improvement over the results obtained in the 1979 multivitamin collaborative study. The method has been adopted official first action for determination of vitamin D in vitamin AD concentrates containing greater than or equal to 5000 IU vitamin D/g.  相似文献

Chromatographic analysis for vitamin B-6 in complex samples imposes certain requirements on the analyst, who must extract completely the bound, unstable vitamers without loss, remove interfering compounds, and provide clean extracts for analysis. The analyst also has to contend with the problems inherent in all methods, such as sample collection, storage, preparation, and homogenization. However, chromatography provides a means of identifying and quantitating all forms of the vitamin, and thus provides the possibility of addressing the problem of the bioavailability of specific vitamers. It also allows automation, which is absolutely essential in coping with the large numbers of samples that are generated in areas such as quality control. These factors are all addressed here, and chromatographic results for various meat and other food products are presented to illustrate the variations in vitamin content that occur from sample to sample, the agreement with microbiological results, and that liquid chromatography (LC) has come of age in dealing with complex biological samples, such as food and food products.  相似文献

A high-pressur liquid chromatographic (HPLC) procedure has been developed for the determination of vitamin D3 in resins, oils, dry concentrates, and dry concentrates containing vitamin A. Specificity of the method for vitamin D3 in the presence of isomers and other related constituents was shown by ultimate recovery of the vitamin D3 and the individual constituents and their characterization by other methods such as ultraviolet spectrophotometry. Precision and accuracy are within 2%, and as many as 20 determinations may be completed in a working day. Excellent agreement with the official AOAC biological assay was found. A comparison of the response of isomers of vitamin D3 by the HPLC method vs. other instrumental and chemical procedures shows HPLC to be the most specific method for determining the bioactive isomers.  相似文献

The objective of most methods for determination of folates in foods and other biological materials is to estimate the total folacin content of the sample. Because folacin comprises a diverse group of related compounds exhibiting similar biological activity, the analytical method must be capable of measuring all of the folates. Methods have been developed for separation of folates in their monoglutamyl form by using anion-exchange, paired-ion reverse phase, or conventional reverse phase liquid chromatography (LC). The application of these separations to determination of folates in foods and other biological materials has been limited largely by the need for development of adequate preparative methods and sufficiently sensitive and specific detection procedures. Although LC with ultraviolet absorption detection has been successful in certain limited applications, the development of fluorometric detection methods has permitted LC determination of folates in a wide range of materials. Tetrahydrofolic acid and its substituted derivatives are detected by monitoring their native fluorescence in an acid mobile phase, while folic acid and certain other folates are measured by using an oxidative post-column fluorogenic derivatization system. Methods also have been developed for determination of the polyglutamyl chain length distribution of folates in biological materials. In total, these procedures permit a direct determination and characterization of folacin compounds.  相似文献

The official AOAC manual Kjeldahl methods for determining crude protein in animal feeds have several disadvantages. For the HgO catalyst method, there are environmental concerns and a lengthy digestion. For the CuSO4 catalyst method, the digestion period is shorter, but still 90 min. A different catalyst combination, CuSO4-TiO2, makes 40 min digestion feasible. Comparison of these catalysts on a group of representative feeds resulted in a mean difference, Cu-Ti minus HgO, of 0.034% protein. Standard deviation of the differences was 0.36. A Student's t-test showed no significant difference. The method will be collaboratively studied.  相似文献

The official first action method for carbadox in swine feed, 42.C01-42.C04, was modified in 2 respects. First, the samples were leached overnight at room temperature instead of boiled for 1 hr. This change avoided problems with overheating and excessive evaporation. Second, the dilution scheme for samples spiked with carbadox standard solution was changed to give absorbance values that were within the optimum working range of all types of spectrophotometers. The modified procedure was collaboratively studied by 21 laboratories. The repeatability standard deviation (sigma0) and reproducibility standard deviation (sigmax) were sigma0 = 0.00029% and sigmax = 0.00056% (8.9% of grand mean) for feeds containing 0.00617% carbadox; and sigma = 0.0012% and sigmax = 0.0019% (9.3% of grand mean) for feeds containing 0.0198% carbadox. The between-laboratory variance ratio was significant for feeds containing 0.0198% carbadox. The mean per cent of intent values for feeds containing 0.00617% carbadox and 0.0198% carbadox were 102% and 104%, respectively. In general, the statistical results were comparable to those previously obtained for the official first action method. Consequently, the modified procedure is not recommended as a replacement for the official first action method.  相似文献

Vitamin D in different fortified foods is determined by using liquid chromatography (LC). Sample preparation is described for fortified skim milk, infant formulas, chocolate drink powder, and diet food. The procedure involves 2 main steps: saponification of the sample followed by extraction, and quantitation by LC analysis. Depending on the sample matrix, additional steps are necessary, i.e., enzymatic digestion for hydrolyzing the starch in the sample and cartridge purification before LC injection. An isocratic system consisting of 0.5% water in methanol (v/v) on two 5 microns ODS Hypersil, 12 X 0.4 cm id columns is used. Recovery of vitamin D added to unfortified skim milk is 98%. The results of vitamin D determination in homogenized skim milk, fortified milk powder, fortified milk powder with soybean, chocolate drink powder, and sports diet food are given.  相似文献

A rapid, reliable separation and quantitation of zoalene (3,5-dinitro-o-toluamide) from feeds is accomplished by using reverse phase liquid chromatography (LC) and ultraviolet detection. An extraction technique which is similar to the present AOAC official colorimetric method is used before chromatographic analysis. This extraction is followed by an activated alumina cleanup and LC to separate zoalene from feed matrix. The methodology was applied to a variety of spiked feed matrices, and yielded good recoveries. Liquid chromatographic results were shown to correlate with colorimetric determinations.  相似文献

Considerable evidence has been published regarding the adverse effect of sodium chloride on physiologically impaired cells of Staphylococcus aureus, such as are to be expected in processed foods. A direct plating method for enumeration of S. aureus eliminating the use of sodium chloride was devised and subjected to collaborative study by 16 analysts. Results obtained by the direct plating method were compared to those obtained by the AOAC official first action method (46.036--46.040). Participating analysts examined duplicate samples at population levels of 91, 34, and 20 S. aureus/g. Coefficients of variation among analysts were considerably lower for the direct plating method (31, 81, and 48%, respectively) than for method 46.040 (59, 156, and 150%, respectively) at all 3 population levels. High coefficients of variation for the direct plating method at 2 of the 3 levels were due principally to low populations of S. aureus. The direct plating method has been adopted as official first action for general purpose use and use of method 46.036--46.040 has been restricted to raw food ingredients and nonprocessed foods.  相似文献

A semiautomated method consisting of digestion of animal feeds in a block digestor and determination of ammonia by ammonia-salicylate reaction has been studied collaboratively, along with the official final action Kjeldahl method, sec. 7.016. Each collaborator analyzed 16 feed samples, tryptophan, ammonium dihydrogen phosphate NBS standard, and ammonium sulfate primary standard. Statistical analysis showed that the 2 methods agreed. The semiautomated method has been adopted as official first action.  相似文献

A collaborative study was carried out which compared the official chemical method, 43.B14-43.B24, the official rat bioassay, 43.165, and the high pressure liquid chromatographic method for vitamin D3 resin, vitamin D3 resin in oil, and dry concentrate. A total of 340 samples were distributed to 17 collaborators for analysis. Five laboratories performed both the chemical and HPLC methods on 5 sets of blind duplicates. A 2-way analysis of variance comparing both methods for each sample showed a significant (P less than 0.01) difference between methods only for Sample 5. When the 2 methods were compared over all the samples, no significant (P less than 0.05) difference was found. Except for Sample 5, there were no differences in the repeatability of the methods. Per cent recoveries on Sample 3, which contained exactly 0.200 X 10(6) IU/g, showed 98.2% for the chemical method and 100.6% for the HPLC method for the 5 laboratories that performed both methods. The assay results of the HPLC and chemical methods are in good agreement with those found by the biological assay on Samples 1-4, but not for Sample 5. Evidence indicates that Sample 5 degraded partially to isotachysterol, and while the HPLC method yielded a reasonable value on this material, the chemical method erroneously showed full potency. An amendment is included for the collaboratively studied HPLC method which detects and eliminates 5,6-trans-vitamin D3, a possible interferant.  相似文献
