Zinc and iron deficiencies affect billions of people globally and have direct impact on human health. Zinc and iron concentrations in plant materials are commonly analyzed by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (F-AAS). This research describes the optimal analysis method for precise zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe) analysis of seeds from the seven species of genus Lens. Estimation of Zn and Fe concentration in whole lentil seeds by F-AAS is destructive, using nitric acid digestion of seeds prior to instrument analysis. The procedure proposed for the determination of Zn and Fe concentration uses the minimum amount of lentil seed of all lentil species with suitable standard reference materials. The relative standard deviations of the method were about 5% for both Zn and Fe. The minimum sample amount 0.3 g of wild and 0.5 g of cultivated lentil seed samples was identified for accurate and precise estimation of Zn and Fe concentration.  相似文献

A collaborative study was carried out on a solid-phase extraction method for separating volatile N-nitrosamines, particularly N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), from combination minced fish or surimi-meat frankfurters with detection by gas chromatography-chemiluminescence (thermal energy analyzer). The results from the 10 collaborators were evaluated using the most recent AOAC guidelines for determining outliers and for the analysis of variance. For NDMA, repeatability standard deviations, sr, ranged from 0.56 to 2.25; repeatability relative standard deviations, RSDr, ranged from 8.9 to 11.5%. Reproducibility standard deviations, SR, for NDMA ranged from 1.40 to 6.49, and reproducibility relative standard deviations, RSDR, ranged from 24.2 to 28.9%. Our data compared favorably to the reproducibility (RSDR) curve of Horwitz. The method has been adopted official first action by AOAC.  相似文献

Ten laboratories analyzed 9 pairs of blind duplicate raw milk samples for total solids. A direct forced air oven method (4 h at 100 degrees C) and a modification of the AOAC predry method (16.032) were used. Preliminary evaluation of the modified AOAC method indicated that blank determinations were necessary. Total solids content ranged from 12.0 to 14.6%. Average repeatability standard deviations (Sr) of the direct forced air oven and modified AOAC methods were 0.019 and 0.017, respectively. Average reproducibility standard deviations (SR) of the direct forced air oven and the modified AOAC methods were 0.042 and 0.047, respectively. Average repeatability relative standard deviations (RSDr) for the direct forced air oven and the modified AOAC methods were 0.149 and 0.136%, respectively; average reproducibility relative standard deviations (RSDR) were 0.327 and 0.370%, respectively. Mean repeatability values (r) and reproducibility values (R) were 0.054 and 0.118 for the direct forced air oven method and 0.049 and 0.133 for the modified AOAC method, respectively. The mean test result of the direct forced air oven method (12.7293%) was comparable to that for the modified AOAC method (12.7273%). The modification of AOAC method 16.032 and the direct forced air oven method have been approved interim official first action.  相似文献

A method is described for the simultaneous determination of several heavy metals in foods. The sample is predigested with nitric acid and decomposed completely by heating with a mixture of sodium and potassium nitrates. The resultant melt containing the metals is then dissolved in dilute nitric acid. After the pH is adjusted to an appropriate value, the metals, such as cadmium, copper, lead, and zinc, are determined by anodic stripping voltammetry. The average recoveries of these metals added to 5 commodities were 98, 98,96, and 104%, respectively. The relative standard deviations, based on data from analyses of a commodity containing measurable levels of copper, lead, and zinc, were 12.0, 13.0, and 9.7%, respectively.  相似文献

A gas chromatographic method for determination of vapor phase nicotine in environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) was collaboratively studied by 6 laboratories. Nicotine is desorbed from XAD-4 sample tubes with ethyl acetate containing triethylamine and determined by gas chromatography with nitrogen-selective detection. Each collaborator received blind duplicate samples at each of 6 nicotine concentrations. Three concentrations were generated by spiking XAD-4 tubes with known amounts of nicotine; the remaining 3 concentrations were ETS samples obtained in a carefully controlled environmental chamber containing sidestream and exhaled mainstream smoke from 1R4F Kentucky reference cigarettes. Repeatability and reproducibility relative standard deviations ranged from 4.4 to 11.1% and from 7.0 to 11.1%, respectively, for nicotine concentrations evaluated (up to 6 micrograms/cu m). The method has been adopted official first action.  相似文献

Each of 5 collaborating laboratories determined volatile N-nitrosamines in 3 blind quadruplicate sets of latex rubber infant pacifier samples, using a gas chromatographic-thermal energy analysis (GC-TEA) method. Volatile N-nitrosamines are extracted from cut-up pacifier nipples with CH2Cl2. The extract is concentrated and subjected to high temperature purge and trap, and the nitrosamines are eluted from the trap and determined by GC-TEA. N-Nitrosodibutylamine (NDBA) was the only nitrosamine found in sufficient concentration to allow analysis. NDBA concentrations of the 3 sets of samples were 82.6, 21.0, and 7.12 ng/g rubber. The repeatability relative standard deviations ranged from 7.46 to 24.0% and the reproducibility relative standard deviations from 7.46 to 29.2%. The minimum detectable level of NDBA by this method is 3.6 ng/g rubber. The method has been adopted official first action.  相似文献

A liquid chromatographic method for the determination of penicillin V potassium in tablets was collaboratively studied by 7 laboratories. The method uses an octadecyl silane reverse-phase column, a mobile phase of acetonitrile-methanol-0.01 M potassium phosphate monobasic (21 + 4 + 75 v/v/v), photometric detection at 225 nm, and sulfadimethoxine as an internal standard. Each collaborator received 6 samples: powdered composites of 2 commercial tablet preparations and 1 synthetic tablet powder mixture, each with blind duplicates. The mean repeatability and reproducibility relative standard deviations for commercial samples were, respectively, 1.10 and 1.46% (250 mg dosage), and 0.84 and 2.82% (500 mg dosage). The average standard recovery from the synthetic formulation was 99.1%, with repeatability and reproducibility relative standard deviations of 1.30 and 3.66%, respectively. The method has been adopted official first action.  相似文献

Eleven collaborating laboratories analyzed 18 blind duplicate pairs of raw milk samples for fat by the Babcock method and by a modified Mojonnier ether extraction method in 7 round robins conducted over a 14 month period. Ten laboratories used the Babcock method and 10 used the modified Mojonnier method. Fat content of samples ranged from approximately 2.7 to 5.6%. Mean test value of samples analyzed was approximately 3.9% fat. Average standard deviations of within-laboratory repeatability (Sr) of the Babcock and ether extraction methods were 0.029 and 0.015% fat, respectively. Average standard deviations of between-laboratory reproducibility (SR) of the Babcock and ether extraction methods were 0.039 and 0.020% fat, respectively. Average repeatability relative standard deviations (RSDr) for the Babcock and ether extraction methods were 0.742 and 0.396%; average reproducibility relative standard deviations (RSDR) were 1.014 and 0.512%, respectively. Mean repeatability values (r) and reproducibility values (R) were 0.081 and 0.111% for Babcock and 0.044 and 0.056% for ether extraction, respectively. The ether extraction method demonstrated consistently better within- and between-laboratory agreement. The overall mean test value for the Babcock method was significantly higher (0.021% fat) than that for ether extraction. The difference between Babcock and ether extraction fat test results was different for different farms. In addition, the mean difference between percent fat determined by the Babcock and ether extraction methods was different in different months. There was no correlation in the difference between Babcock and ether extraction methods with the absolute level of fat in the samples in the range of 2.7 to 5.6% fat. The modifications of the AOAC Babcock method and the modified Mojonnier ether extraction method have been approved interim official first action.  相似文献

A rapid electrospray mass spectrometry method was developed for screening larkspur (Delphinium spp.) plant material for toxic norditerpenoid alkaloids. The method was calibrated using two standard alkaloids, methyllycaconitine (1) and deltaline (2), with a recovery of 92% from spiked samples and relative standard deviations of 6.0% and 8.1% for the two alkaloids, respectively. Thirty-three samples of plains larkspur, Delphinium geyeri, were analyzed. Methyllycaconitine (1) concentration was 0.27% +/- 0.08% during a 1-month period in 1997 establishing the relative risk of poisoning from the plant to be low. The method was also applied to the trace analysis (<1 ppm) of 1 in serum samples from sheep dosed different levels of the alkaloid. Electrospray ionization combined with sequential tandem mass spectrometry and HPLC coupled to atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) mass spectrometry were used to detect and tentatively identify three new norditerpenoid alkaloids from Delphinium nuttallianum [bearline (6), 14-acetylbearline (7), 16-deacetylgeyerline (8)]. The tentative structure of the new alkaloids was predicted from the tandem mass spectra fragmentation patterns and assigning the substitution pattern for methoxy and acetyl groups at the C-14 and C-16 carbons.  相似文献

A gas chromatographic-electron capture detection method for determining the concentration of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) as Aroclor 1254 (AR 1254) in serum was evaluated through a 2-phase collaborative study. In Phase I, each collaborator's lot of Woelm silica gel (70-150 mesh) was evaluated for elution and recovery of AR 1254, which had been added in vitro at 25 ng/mL to a serum extract. In Phase II, each collaborator analyzed a series of bovine serum samples that contained the following: (1) in vitro-spiked AR 1254; (2) in vivo AR 1254 and 8 in vitro-spiked chlorinated hydrocarbons; (3) in vivo AR 1254 only; (4) 8 in vitro-spiked chlorinated hydrocarbons only; and (5) neither AR 1254 nor chlorinated hydrocarbons above the detection limit of the method. In Phase I, the average recovery of AR 1254 from silica gel for the 6 collaborators was 87.9 +/- 15.44% (mean +/- 1 SD; N = 18; range = 52.3-105.8%). In Phase II, the analysis of in vitro spikes of AR 1254 in serum at 8.58, 16.8, 41.8, and 84.3 ppb gave mean (means) interlaboratory recoveries of 89.0, 83.3, 79.4, and 76.9%, respectively, with within-laboratory (repeatability) relative standard deviations (RSDr) of 18.8, 20.5, 10.2, and 14.1%, respectively, and among-laboratory (reproducibility) relative standard deviations (RSDR) of 21.5, 21.1, 14.6, and 20.8%, respectively. The determination of in vivo AR 1254 in samples containing approximately 10, 25, 50, and 100 ng/mL of AR 1254 resulted in interlaboratory means of 10, 22, 39, and 79 ng/mL, respectively, with RSDr = 6.7, 9.7, 6.4, and 5.8%, respectively, and RSDR = 20.6, 16.0, 10.9, and 10.3%, respectively. The precision of the method for incurred AR 1254 showed a maximum RSDr of less than 10% and a maximum RSDR of less than 21% for a concentration range of 10-100 ng/mL. The accuracy of the method as demonstrated by the mean recovery of in vitro-spiked AR 1254 over a concentration range of 8.58-843 ng/mL was 82.2%. The method has been approved interim official first action.  相似文献

A procedure has been developed for the determination of zinc(II) bis(dimethyldithiocarbamate) (ziram) and zinc(II) ethylenebis(dithiocarbamate) (zineb) after preconcentration on a column using naphthalene-(1,2'-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) as adsorbent. Ziram and zineb are quantitatively retained on the column in the pH range of 9.0-12.5 and at a flow rate of 1-2 mL/min. The solid mass consisting of the Zn-PAN complex along with naphthalene is dissolved from the column with 5 mL of dimethylformamide (DMF). Absorbance of the complex was measured at 550 nm; Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration ranges of 2.0-22.0 microg of ziram and 5.0-19.8 microg of zineb in 10 mL of the final DMF solution. Ten replicate determinations on a sample solution containing 20 microg of ziram and 18 microg of zineb gave a mean absorbance of 0.33 with relative standard deviations of 0.80 and 0.70%, respectively. The interference of various ions has been studied. The method has been employed for the determination of ziram and zineb in commercial samples and in various foodstuffs, and the results were compared with the earlier reported methods.  相似文献

基于光谱技术的畜禽污水化学需氧量快速测定方法的研究   总被引：1，自引：2，他引：1  
化学需氧量(COD)是评价水体污染程度的一项重要综合性指标。随着环境污染问题的日益严重，传统的测量方法由于存在分析成本高、时间长，并且还会造成二次污染等问题，已经不能够满足污水检测的需求，提出了采用光谱技术进行畜禽污水COD快速测定的方法。采用ASD公司的便携式光谱仪，选用容积分别为1000 mL和2000 mL的烧杯作为盛样容器，对18个不同COD浓度水平的污水样本进行了测量。通过吸光度与水样COD值的相关性分析表明，水样的光谱特性与COD值之间存在较好的相关性，以此建立偏最小二乘回归模型。结果表明，两种不同盛样容器(1000 mL、2000 mL)下的预测决定系数达到0.9895和0.9985，校正样本标准偏差为14.2和11.5，预测样本标准偏差为22和32，预测相对偏差均在10％以下，能够满足农业工程应用的要求。说明可以利用光谱技术对畜禽污水的COD含量进行定量分析，COD预测模型的建立也将为开发水质在线检测仪器提供技术基础。  相似文献

A headspace gas chromatographic method for the determination of traces of ethylene oxide in ethoxylated surfactants and demulsifiers was developed. Samples are analyzed directly by the technique to a 1.0 ppm (w/w) quantitation limit. The procedure also performs well for propylene oxide, acetaldehyde, and 1,4-dioxane. It is simple, sensitive, and linear. The percent relative standard deviations for 0.5 and 30 ppm ethylene oxide in the surfactant were 2.8 and 8.3%, respectively.  相似文献

A method has been developed for determination of bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE) in 3 aqueous-based food simulants: water, 15% (v/v) ethanol, and 3% (w/v) acetic acid. BADGE is extracted with C18 cartridges and the extract is concentrated under a stream of nitrogen. BADGE is quantitated by reversed-phase liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. Relative precision at 200 micrograms/L was 3.4%, the detection limit of the method was 0.1 micrograms/L, and recoveries of spiking concentrations from 1 to 8 micrograms/L were nearly 100%. Relative standard deviations for the method ranged from 3.5 to 5.9%, depending on the identity of the spiked aqueous-based food simulant.  相似文献

A collaborative study of a liquid chromatographic method for the determination of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2 was conducted in laboratories located in the United States, Canada, South Africa, and Switzerland. Twenty-one artificially contaminated raw peanuts, peanut butter, and corn samples containing varying amounts of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2 were distributed to participating laboratories. The test portion was extracted with methanol-0.1N HCl (4 + 1), filtered, defatted with hexane, and then partitioned with methylene chloride. The concentrated extract was passed through a silica gel column. Aflatoxins B1 and G1 were derivatized with trifluoroacetic acid, and the individual aflatoxins were determined by reverse-phase liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. Statistical analysis of the data was performed to determine or confirm outliers, and to compute repeatability and reproducibility of the method. For corn, relative standard deviations for repeatability (RSDr) for aflatoxin B1 ranged from 27.2 to 8.3% for contamination levels from 5 through 50 ng/g. For raw peanuts and peanut butter, RSDr values for aflatoxin B1 were 35.0 to 41.2% and 11.2 to 19.1%, respectively, for contamination levels from 5 through 25 ng/g. RSDr values for aflatoxins B2, G1, and G2 were similar. Relative standard deviations for reproducibility (RSDr) for aflatoxin B1 ranged from 15.8 to 38.4%, 24.4 to 33.4%, and 43.9 to 54.0% for corn, peanut butter, and raw peanuts, respectively. The method has been adopted official first action for the determination of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2 in peanut butter and corn at concentrations greater than or equal to 13 ng total aflatoxins/g.  相似文献

A joint AOAC/IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) interlaboratory study of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent screening assay (ELISA) for aflatoxins was conducted in laboratories in Canada, France, Japan, The Netherlands, Switzerland, Tunisia, and the United States. Twelve raw and roasted peanut and corn portions containing various concentrations of natural aflatoxins and supplemented when appropriate with aflatoxin B1 were distributed to participating laboratories for testing. The assay is based on competition between an enzyme-conjugated aflatoxin B1 and (free) aflatoxins in the test sample for aflatoxin-specific antibodies coated onto interior surfaces of microtiter wells. After a wash step to remove all unbound aflatoxins, a substrate added to each well is catalyzed from a colorless to a blue solution by any bound enzyme-conjugated aflatoxin B1 present. The intensity of the color decreases as the amount of free aflatoxin B1 in the test portion increases. Final determination of aflatoxin concentrations can be made by either visual comparison with standard solutions or spectrophotometric comparisons (at 650 nm) to knowns. Overall correlation was good between ELISA and thin-layer chromatographic results for corn and roasted peanut products, with 93 and 98% correct responses for visual and instrumental determinations, respectively. For instrumental determinations of aflatoxin in corn and roasted peanuts in the less than or equal to 20 ng/g range, the relative standard deviations for repeatability (RSDr) were 14.9 and 41.4%, respectively, and the relative standard deviations for reproducibility (RSDR) were 45.7 and 43.5%, respectively. For instrumental determination of greater than 20 ng/g, the respective RSDr and RSDR values were 19.4 and 52.7% for corn and 23.3 and 23.3% for roasted peanuts.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Nine laboratories analyzed samples of whole grain, intermediate, and ready-to-eat products for ethylene dibromide (EDB) residues. Supplied samples of wheat, rice, and flour contained both fortified and incurred EDB; corn bread mix, baby cereal, and bread contained only fortified EDB. The whole grains and intermediates were analyzed by the same basic procedural steps as in the official method for multifumigants: They were extracted by soaking in acetone-water (5 + 1). The baby cereal and bread were analyzed by a modification of the Rains and Holder hexane co-distillation procedure. EDB was determined by electron capture gas chromatography operated with an SP-1000 column. All products contained 3 different levels of EDB and were analyzed as blind duplicates. Overall mean recoveries ranged from 85.2% for 69.6 ppb to 105.0% for 4.35 ppb, both in baby cereal. Interlaboratory relative standard deviations ranged from 5.7% for 869 ppb in wheat to 20.2% for 69.6 ppb in baby cereal, both fortified. Mean levels of incurred EDB in wheat, rice, and flour were 926.7, 982.0, and 49.9 ppb, respectively; corresponding relative standard deviations were 9.9, 7.7, and 13.1%. The method was adopted official first action.  相似文献

Copper sulfate was substituted for mercury as the catalyst in the International Dairy Federation (IDF) Standard 20A:1986 method for the determination of nitrogen content in milk. The substitution was supported by results obtained in an interlaboratory study by 24 laboratories in 12 countries. Each laboratory analyzed 12 test samples of milk as blind duplicates in a double split level design with high, medium, and low nitrogen concentrations. The method protocol requires the concurrent analyses of an ammonium salt solution and a tryptophan solution as internal quality control standards with a minimum nitrogen recovery between 99 and 100% for the former and at least 98% for the latter. The repeatability and reproducibility relative standard deviations are 0.5 and 1%, respectively, for the range 0.35-0.70 g N/100 g. The performance of the laboratories that did not meet the required quality control specifications was clearly poorer than that of those that did meet the specifications.  相似文献

Eleven laboratories participated in an interlaboratory study of an enzyme-linked immunoassay for limonin in grapefruit juice. Participating laboratories received training and practice samples until familiar with the procedure. Laboratories then received 8 sample pairs of grapefruit juice as blind duplicates. Samples were refrigerated and analyzed within 4 days of receipt. Results from 1 laboratory and 6 individual samples were excluded from the statistical analysis. Method performance was measured by the one-way component of variance analysis. Repeatability relative standard deviations (RSDr) ranged from 7.0 to 15.6%. Reproducibility relative standard deviations (RSDR) ranged from 12.9 to 29.4%.  相似文献

Ten collaborating laboratories assayed 4 blind duplicate pairs of whole bovine blood for cholinesterase activity. The 4 sample pairs ranged from normal (100%) to severely organo-phosphorus-inhibited (less than 10%) activity. Collaborators also received commercially available human lyophillized serum as an external control and a chromate solution to evaluate spectrophotometer performance. The Ellman kinetic assay was performed on a 1:1000 dilution of the whole blood in pH 8.0 phosphate buffer. The method monitors the increase in absorbance at 412 nm caused by formation of 5-thio-2-nitrobenzoic acid (yellow reaction product). Repeatability standard deviations (RSDr) ranged from 4.30 to 14.2%; reproducibility standard deviations (RSDR) ranged from 6.99 to 19.3%. The lower limit of detection was estimated to be 0.10 mumole/mL/min. The method has been approved interim official first action by AOAC.  相似文献
