Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of analytical testing technology, and in particular to a method for detecting the fluorine content in food. Background Technology

[0002] Fluorine is an essential trace element for the human body. Adequate intake helps prevent tooth decay and maintain bone health; however, its safe threshold is narrow, and excessive intake can lead to dental fluorosis, skeletal fluorosis, and even damage to the nervous system. Therefore, accurately determining the fluorine content in food is crucial for nutritional assessment and risk management.

[0003] Tea, seafood, processed meat products, and certain groundwater-irrigated crops (such as rice) naturally accumulate fluoride, often to levels close to or exceeding regulatory thresholds. Furthermore, the widespread use of fluoride-containing pesticides (such as fipronil and flonicamid) and fluoride-containing veterinary drugs (such as florfenicol and fluoroquinolones) in agriculture and animal husbandry may leave residues or additives in food, posing potential safety risks.

[0004] Ion chromatography (IC) and fluoride ion-selective electrode (ISE) methods are commonly used for the determination of fluorine. However, the conventional IC method is susceptible to high concentrations of Cl. - SO4 2- Interference from coexisting ions makes it suitable for determining inorganic fluoride ions, but it cannot directly reflect the levels of organic fluoride ions or total fluoride. Conventional ISE methods are simple to operate, but their resistance to interference is insufficient and they are easily affected by OH groups. - Al 3+ Fe 3+ Interferences such as these can cause unstable responses and poor reproducibility in turbid or high-salt food extracts. Furthermore, the IC and ISE methods are incompatible with modern high-throughput elemental analysis platforms, making simultaneous multi-element screening difficult.

[0005] Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is widely used in elemental content detection due to its advantages of high sensitivity, wide linear range, and multi-element compatibility. However, because the first ionization energy of fluorine is extremely high (approximately 17.4 eV), far exceeding the energy provided by the argon plasma temperature in the inductively coupled rectangular tube (approximately 15.8 eV), the ionization energy of fluorine (…) is significantly higher. 19 F + Barium fluoride (BF₂) cannot be effectively ionized in conventional inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Therefore, in the traditional ICP-MS / MS method for determining fluorine content, the detection of barium fluoride adduct ions (BaF₂) is often performed. + The signal indirectly reflects the fluorine content, while ammonia is used via mass transfer modes (such as BaF). + →BaF(NH3) 3+ To eliminate 18 O1 H + , 17 O 2 H + as well as 16 O 3 H + Equivalent Isotope Ion Pairs 19 F + Mass spectrometry interference. However, this method has serious drawbacks when applied to food matrices rich in sulfur amino acids, such as meat, seafood, dairy products, and processed foods (e.g., braised products, cheese): barium ions readily react with sulfate, carbonate, and phosphate anions released after food matrix digestion to form insoluble precipitates (e.g., BaSO4, Ksp=1.1×10⁻⁶). -10 ), leading to free Ba 2+ The concentration dropped sharply, BaF + The signal is significantly suppressed or even completely disappeared, which seriously affects the reliability of the detection method.
