Problems solved by technology

However, for illicitly used sample matrices, only chromatographic-mass spectrometry is sensitive enough to meet food safety regulatory requirements
The food matrix is ​​complex, and it is easy to encounter interference compared with mass spectrometry chromatography, while the instruments used in liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry are more expensive, and there are few such instruments in grassroots laboratories and production enterprises in my country, so it is not easy to promote
In addition, the pretreatment methods reported in the literature mostly use toxic and volatile organic solvents such as ether for extraction, and some use headspace solid-phase microextraction, etc.
Commonly used purification methods include liquid-liquid distribution purification, solid phase extraction purification, etc., and sometimes protein precipitation is required. Most of these methods take a long time to operate, have low efficiency, are prone to false positives, and have a greater risk of harm to the operator. Some special equipment is required
Relevant food matrices are mainly concentrated in dairy products, etc., but there are no methods reported for grains, vegetable oils, etc., and there is no method for simultaneous determination of these three substances by GC-MS

[0105] ① Optimization of extraction conditions

[0106] The three target substances are easily soluble in polar organic solvents such as ether, alcohols, acetone, ethyl acetate, acetonitrile, etc., and ether is mostly used as the extraction solvent for gas chromatography analysis in literature reports. However, most food matrices contain more fat and other substances, which are easily soluble in ether. These substances will contaminate the chromatographic column, and additional purification methods are required to remove these substances before detection can be performed; if alcohol solvents are used, the water in the food will be dissolved. Moisture in alcohol is difficult to remove, sugar and salt will enter the extraction solution with water, causing serious pollution of the instrument, alcohol solvents may also react with anhydride derivative reagents; acetone an...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method used for simultaneous measurement of vanillin, methyl vanillin, and ethyl vanillin in food. According to the method, measurement of vanillin and ethyl vanillin is carried out after conversion of vanillin and ethyl vanillin into propionates via derivatization. The method comprises following steps: solution preparation, standard stock solution preparation, sample solution preparation, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry qualitative analysis, and quantitative determination. The method can be used for simultaneous measurement of vanillin, methyl vanillin, and ethyl vanillin in cereal grains, liquid milk, single cream, plant oil, and infant formula foods; propionic anhydride derivatization is adopted; detection efficiency is high; detection cost is low; and themethod is rapid and simple, is high in efficiency, and is convenient to popularize.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a detection method. Especially a method for the simultaneous determination of vanillin, methyl vanillin and ethyl vanillin in food, mainly used in grains, liquid milk, cream, vegetable oil, infant formula Determination method of base vanillin and ethyl vanillin. Background technique [0002] Vanillin, methyl vanillin and ethyl vanillin all have strong milk flavor, among which vanillin naturally exists in many plants in nature, and the latter two are chemically synthesized substances. The three substances are commonly used food flavor enhancers in food, and they are widely used in candies, biscuits, pastries and beverages. However, it has been reported in the literature that large doses of vanillin can cause headaches, nausea, vomiting, dyspnea, and even liver and kidney damage. However, many merchants in our country illegally add spices in order to pursue the maximum benefit, and even the incidents of "flavored rice" and "fl...
