Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of detection and analysis, and specifically proposes a flow injection dynamic chelation determination system, method and application of cyanide in wine. Background Art

[0002] Cyanide is one of the key toxic substances in the safety control of alcoholic beverages. Its accurate quantitative detection is crucial for controlling the quality and safety of alcoholic beverages and protecting the health of consumers. Currently, flow injection analysis (iFIA) is listed as one of the standard detection methods for cyanide in alcoholic beverages in the national standard (GB5009.36-2023 Method 5) due to its high efficiency and high degree of automation. However, in actual detection, the interference of the complexity of the wine sample matrix is ​​easily overlooked - especially the copper ions (Cu 2+ ) (Health wine, white wine, grape wine, yellow wine and other wines are brought in due to their raw materials, production process and storage process), will react with cyanide (CN - ) form a complex, which may prevent cyanide from being released by distillation or hinder the color reaction, resulting in a significantly low test result. This experimental study shows that copper ion standard solution is added to 1.0 mg / L in freshly distilled Luzhou-flavor liquor (cyanide content is 406.57 μg / L, copper is not detected), mixed and allowed to stand for 4 hours, and the cyanide content is tested according to the fifth method of GB5009.36-2023. The test result is only 69.15 μg / L.

[0003] The problem of copper ion interference in the conventional flow injection analysis of cyanide in wine is extremely hidden, specifically manifested in: ① The interference mechanism is complex: the complex equilibrium between copper ions and cyanide is affected by multiple factors such as the pH value and concentration of the wine sample, and it is difficult to completely eliminate it by conventional dilution. In addition, excessive dilution will lead to large fluctuations in cyanide detection results; ② Risk of false negative results: distorted cyanide detection results can easily be misjudged as "low cyanide content" wine samples, covering up actual safety hazards; ③ Method limitations: neither the current national standard method nor the methods reported in the literature provide an effective solution to the interference of copper ions in the cyanide flow injection analysis method.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a measurement system and method with a simple structure, strong compatibility, and the ability to eliminate copper ion interference in real time. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention proposes a compact and highly adaptable flow injection dynamic chelation determination system for cyanide in wine. Without changing the national standard pretreatment process, the "dynamic online chelation" strategy is used to eliminate copper ion interference in real time, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of cyanide content determination.

[0006] This experimental study found that the binding ability of cyanide ions in wine samples to copper ions is weaker than that of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid to copper ions. Based on this principle, the present invention effectively solves the problem of copper ion interference in the flow injection analysis of cyanide in wine by innovatively designing a "dynamic online chelation" flow system. The main advantages of the present invention are: ① Based on the traditional flow injection analysis, the disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid mobile phase is introduced for the first time, so that the copper ions in the wine sample to be tested can be dynamically chelated online in the closed flow injection system, and the mixing ratio of the wine sample to be tested and the disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid solution can be accurately controlled, effectively eliminating the interference of copper ions on the detection of cyanide in the wine sample to be tested. ② The present invention adopts flow pipeline design and flow path improvement optimization, without the need for major hardware modification, and has a high adaptability to the fully automatic flow injection analyzer, and does not affect the compatibility of the instrument control software.

[0007] The technical solution of the present invention is achieved as follows: The present invention provides a flow injection dynamic chelation determination system for cyanide in wine, comprising: Flow injection analyzer: Integrates sample flow path, reagent flow path and high-precision peristaltic pump to provide stable and continuous liquid drive.

[0008] The chelating agent flow path, which connects coaxially with the sample flow path outlet through the first T-joint, is used to inject a degassed disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA-2Na) solution into the wine sample. This chelating agent has a much higher complexing capacity with copper ions than cyanide ions, instantly displacing and releasing bound cyanide.

[0009] Flow ratio control module: Real-time adjustment of the volume flow ratio of wine sample to chelating agent solution to 4:1–5:1 to ensure maximum chelation efficiency while avoiding over-dilution.

[0010] Second three-way connector: The wine sample-chelating agent mixture and the distillation reagent are coaxially combined again to form a uniform reaction system.

[0011] Temperature control unit: equipped with a primary heating module (120°C) and a secondary heating module (85°C) to precisely control the distillation and color development reaction temperatures to ensure a sufficient and stable reaction.

[0012] Closed flow path design: All flow paths and T-joints are constructed from inert polymer tubing, such as FEP capillaries or Tygon tubing, with strictly matched inner diameters (0.6–1.3 mm for sample flow paths, 0.6–1.3 mm for chelating agents, and 0.5–1.5 mm for reagents), creating a closed system with no volatility or residue.

[0013] Peristaltic pump speed setting value: controlled at 15–30 rpm, taking into account both response time and detection sensitivity.

[0014] The present invention also provides a determination method comprising the following steps: S1 wine sample injection: The wine sample enters the sample flow path directly after national standard pre-treatment, without the need for additional offline steps.

[0015] S2 dynamic chelation: Degassed EDTA-2Na solution (concentration 0.1–1.0 g / L) is coaxially combined with the wine sample in the first three-way connector with a mixing time of ≤5 s. The copper ions are complexed in real time and the cyanide is completely released.

[0016] S3 distillation-color development: After the mixed liquid and the distillation reagent are combined at the second T-joint, they undergo a first-stage distillation at 120°C and a second-stage color development at 85°C to ensure efficient conversion of cyanide to hydrogen cyanide.

[0017] S4 colorimetric determination: The classic isonicotinic acid-barbituric acid method is used to perform colorimetric determination at a wavelength of 600 nm. The entire process is automatically recorded and the results are output by the flow injection optical system.

[0018] In some embodiments, the technical performance of the above-mentioned determination method is as follows: Anti-interference upper limit: When the copper ion concentration is ≤2mg / L, the deviation of cyanide determination results is <5%.

[0019] Detection limit: ≤2μg / L, significantly better than the current standard.

[0020] Precision: relative standard deviation (RSD) ≤ 2.5%.

[0021] Recovery rate: 90%–110%, covering complex matrices such as white wine, yellow wine, grape wine, and health wine.

[0022] Detection throughput: 15 samples / hour, meeting batch detection needs.

[0023] The present invention has the following beneficial effects compared to the prior art: Compared with existing technologies, the present method is the first to introduce a "dynamic online chelation" system for flow injection analysis of cyanide in alcoholic beverages. By introducing a disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid chelating solution into the mobile phase, it achieves real-time chelation of copper ions in a closed flow path (avoiding cyanide loss from pre-chelation in an open system). Second, the innovative pipeline design ensures thorough dynamic mixing of the chelating agent and the alcohol sample while precisely controlling the mixing ratio. Third, the flow path is highly adaptable and can be achieved simply by adjusting the flow line specifications and improving the flow path. Fourth, the instrument parameter optimization system significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio, bringing the method's upper limit for copper ion interference to 2 mg / L.
