Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of chemical testing and analysis technology, specifically to a method for detecting dimethyl fumarate in food. Background Technology
[0002] Dimethyl fumarate (DMF, CAS No. 624-49-7) is a mildew inhibitor discovered in the 1980s with broad-spectrum and highly effective antibacterial and bactericidal effects against microorganisms. Studies by Guo Ailian et al. have found that concentrations of 600 mg / L-800 mg / L have significant inhibitory effects on microorganisms such as Aspergillus, Penicillium, Mucor, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus subtilis. It can significantly inhibit the growth of molds and yeasts, and greatly extend the shelf life of pastries, soy products, and other similar products. However, some manufacturers illegally add it to reduce costs and conceal raw material spoilage. Dimethyl fumarate is a non-edible substance, and relevant departments have long included it in the blacklist of illegally added non-edible substances in food, strictly prohibiting its intentional addition to food and making it a key item for food safety inspections.
[0003] DMF is currently listed as a non-edible substance that may be illegally added to food. While there are numerous studies on the analysis of DMF in food, these methods suffer from cumbersome pretreatment processes, long processing times, and unstable results. Existing methods are complex, requiring multiple extractions and are time-consuming; they also use a large amount of organic solvents, increasing costs; and the purification via solid-phase extraction (SPE) and nitrogen blowing concentration further increase time costs. SPE purification requires keeping the column moist, which increases the difficulty of operation for batch samples and also increases the use of organic solvents, raising experimental costs. Nitrogen blowing requires controlling the gas flow rate; a high flow rate leads to unstable experimental results, and this process is also time-consuming.
[0004] Meanwhile, most DMF detection currently uses the external standard quantification method. However, experimental verification shows that the results of external standard quantification have a significant downward trend over time, while the results of internal standard quantification are basically stable and not significantly affected by time changes. This indicates that DMM can not only reduce matrix interference in the sample, but also correct the changes in DMF response values in real time.
[0005] Therefore, the test data of this invention are all obtained quantitatively using the internal standard method. At the same time, it provides a simple, efficient, economical, fast, environmentally friendly and stable detection method, which reduces the requirements for personnel's operating skills in the laboratory while ensuring the accuracy of the test results.

[0037] To further optimize this technical solution, step S1, which involves configuring a standard curve based on the injection of the standard solution, includes:

[0043] Take 3.00 mL of the supernatant into a 10 mL purification tube, vortex for 1 min, let stand for 1 min, and then filter the supernatant through a 0.22 μm organic filter membrane for testing.
[0044] To further optimize this technical solution, the quantitative method in step S3 includes:

[0047] To further optimize this technical solution, in the sample:

[0053] The new method for detecting dimethyl fumarate (DMF) in this food sample requires only about 5.5 mL of acetonitrile (ADF) as a single reagent, while existing methods require a larger amount of organic solvent (20 mL ADF and 5 mL ethyl acetate), estimated at about 25 mL. The processing time for a single sample is approximately 0.5 h using this method, compared to an estimated 2 h using the existing method. This results in approximately 80% savings in organic reagent usage and 75% reduction in processing time. The addition of the internal standard DMM effectively corrects for the effects of DMF changes over time and matrix interference, ensuring the accuracy of the results. Furthermore, the simplified operation reduces the skill requirements for laboratory personnel. Attached Figure Description

[0100] Using these chromatographic and mass spectrometric conditions, the total ion chromatogram of a 100 ng / mL DMF (containing DMM internal standard) standard solution is detailed in [link to chromatographic and mass spectrometric data]. Figure 6 .
[0101] To verify the purification effect of different samples and different mass ratios, the purification scheme was selected as follows: DMF and DMM have simple molecular structures and belong to linear small molecule compounds, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it is not easily adsorbed by PSA, C18, and GCB. This method used four formulations (see Table 1 below) to purify the limit-of-quantitation (LOQ) level spiked solutions of three representative samples (bread, hawthorn, and milk). The purification process was as follows:
[0102] Weigh 2.0 g (0.0001 g accurate) of sample into a 50 mL centrifuge tube, add 0.5 mL of internal standard working solution, add 5.000 mL of water to the solid sample, add homogenizer and vortex for 10 min until the sample is evenly dispersed (add 3.00 mL of water to the liquid sample and vortex for 1 min until the sample is mixed); add 5.00 mL of acetonitrile, vortex for 10 min, add 3 g of NaCl, vortex for 2 min, centrifuge at 5000 r / min for 3 min, take 3.00 mL of supernatant into a 10 mL purification tube, vortex for 1 min, let stand for 1 min, take the supernatant and filter it through a 0.22 μm organic filter membrane for analysis.
[0103] The four materials serve the following functions: PSA removes polar interfering substances such as organic acids, sugars, and pigments from the sample through weak anion exchange and hydrogen bonding; C18 removes non-polar interfering substances such as oils and fats from the sample through hydrophobic adsorption; GCB's graphite planar structure selectively adsorbs substances with aromatic rings, removing interfering substances such as chlorophyll and carotenoids from the sample. Anhydrous sodium sulfate provides gentle dehydration and salting-out separation, while also protecting the target analyte, ensuring stable recovery, and protecting the instrument.
[0104] Table 1 Test Results of Purification Pipe Formulation
[0105]
[0106] As shown in Table 1, the theoretical concentration of DMF is 40 μg / L. The test results of the purified sample solutions ranged from 40.0778 μg / L to 41.1227 μg / L. Compared with the backcalibrated result of 40.0445 μg / L for the 40 μg / L standard solution, the matrix enhancement effect still exists, but the deviation of the detection results is between 1.3% and 2.6%, indicating that the matrix enhancement effect of the purified sample solution is weak and basically does not affect the accurate quantification of the detection results. The weak enhancement of the matrix effect also indicates that the adsorption of DMF by PSA, C18, and GCB is not significant and will not cause the detection results to be too low. Since the No. 4 formulation uses less material and has a relatively low cost, the No. 4 formulation was used for subsequent experimental purification.
[0107] Quantitative Method Selection: Since DMM and DMF have similar structures and retention times, and DMM was undetectable in the sample, using DMM as an internal standard effectively reduces matrix interference. Experiments showed that the standard curve correction point concentration for monitoring instrument and standard substance stability decreased with increasing injection time. Data was collected at initial injection, 7 h injection, 17 h injection, 27 h injection, and 28 h injection by adding 100 μL of internal standard working solution to each of the two standard curve concentration points (100 μg / L and 200 μg / L). The results are as follows: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the results of external standard quantification show a significant downward trend over time, while the results of internal standard quantification remain relatively stable and are not significantly affected by time changes. This indicates that DMM can not only reduce matrix interference in the sample, but also provide real-time feedback on changes in the response value of DMF.
[0108] This method refers to the standard curve range of BJS202407. Following the above operations, the standard curve prepared is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, Y = 1.268472 × x + 0.043252; R 2 =0.99977181, indicating a good linear relationship. The recalibration concentrations of the 100 μg / L and 200 μg / L standard solutions were essentially unaffected by time changes.
[0109] Validation of detection limit, accuracy, and precision: This method was used to perform parallel dual-sample detection of DMF and DMM on three samples. After confirming that there were no response values of DMF and DMM in the sample solution, six parallel spiked tests were conducted on the detection limit level (theoretical sample solution concentration of 20 μg / L, corresponding to a sample content of approximately 0.05 mg / kg), the 1st limit of quantitation level (theoretical sample solution concentration of 40 μg / L, corresponding to a sample content of approximately 0.1 mg / kg), the 2nd limit of quantitation level (theoretical sample solution concentration of 80 μg / L, corresponding to a sample content of approximately 0.2 mg / kg), and the 5th limit of quantitation level (theoretical sample solution concentration of 200 μg / L, corresponding to a sample content of approximately 0.5 mg / kg). The results are detailed in Table 2.
[0110] Table 2. Experimental data on detection limit, accuracy, and precision.
[0111]
[0112] As shown in Table 2, the recoveries of the three samples at the detection limit level ranged from 76.3% to 82.3%, indicating that this detection method can achieve accurate quantification at the detection limit. The relative range of the six parallel samples in each group ranged from 4.8% to 6.8%, meeting the requirement of the relevant standard that the absolute difference between parallel samples should not exceed 10% of the arithmetic mean. The recoveries of the three samples at the 1st, 2nd, and 5th limits of quantitation levels ranged from 88.0% to 97.7%, and the recoveries showed an upward trend towards 100% with increasing spiking amount. The relative range of the six parallel samples in each group ranged from 1.1% to 4.1%, meeting the precision requirements of the relevant standard. The relative range of the milk and hawthorn slice spiked samples showed a downward trend with increasing spiking amount, possibly because DMF is slightly soluble in water, and a small amount of DMF remains in the aqueous phase of the extraction step, resulting in samples with smaller spiking amounts being relatively more affected, while samples with larger spiking amounts were relatively less affected. Unlike other samples, the relative range in bread showed no trend with the amount of spiking, which may be related to the porous structure of the bread sample. Before extraction with acetonitrile, 5.00 mL of water and homogenants were added to the sample for re-homogenization. The porous structure of the bread may not have been completely destroyed and there may have been differences, resulting in different amounts of DMF being adsorbed. This also shows that the operation of re-homogenization with homogenants during the extraction process is beneficial to improving the precision of the experimental results.
[0113] A detailed comparison of the detection method of this invention with the operation steps of BJS202407 is shown in Table 3. When processing the same solid sample using the two methods, this method requires approximately 5.5 mL of organic reagent, while the BJS 202407 method requires approximately 26 mL of organic reagent. The reagent usage is approximately 20% of that of the BJS 202407 method, saving approximately 20.5 mL of organic reagent. The time required using this method is approximately 0.5 h, while the time required using the BJS202407 method is approximately 2 h, which is approximately 25% of the time required by the BJS 202407 method, thus saving approximately 1.5 h of operation time.
[0114] Table 3 Comparison of the operation steps of this method with those of BJS202407
[0115]
[0116] Compared with the BJS 202407 method, this invention reduces the amount of organic reagents by about 80%, the operation time by about 75%, and the addition of internal standard DMM effectively corrects the effects of the target analyte DMF changing over time and matrix interference.
