National food safety standard - Determination of Vitamin

B12 in foods

1 Scope

This Standard specifies the determination method of vitamin B12 in foods.

Method I of liquid chromatography applies to the determination of vitamin B12 in foods

for infants and young children, milk and milk products, meat and meat products.

Method II of liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry applies to the determination

of vitamin B12 in foods for infants and young children, milk and milk products, meat

and meat products, ready-to-eat cereals, baked foods, jelly, and beverages.

Method III of microbiological method applies to the determination of vitamin B12 in

foods for infants and young children, milk and milk products.

Method I - Liquid chromatography

2 Principle

After the sample is enzymatically hydrolyzed, use potassium cyanide (or sodium

cyanide) solution to convert cobalamin isomers (hydroxocobalamin, methylcobalamin

and 5-deoxyadenosylcobalamin, etc.) to cyanocobalamin. After the sample solution is

purified and concentrated by the immunoaffinity column, use the reversed-phase liquid

chromatography column for separation, the ultraviolet detector for detection, and the

external standard method for quantification.

3 Reagents and materials

grade-1 water which is specified by GB/T 6682.

4.5 Ultrasonic cleaner.

4.6 Centrifuge. speed >= 10 000 r/min.

5 Analysis steps

Note. Avoid ultraviolet light during the operation, and operate as far away from light as possible.

5.1 Sample pretreatment

5.1.1 Sample preparation

Crush and grind the solid sample, or use a meat grinder to make it into chyme;

homogenize and mix. Shake and mix the liquid sample before testing.

5.1.2 Sample extraction

Weigh 5 g ~ 10 g of the sample (accurate to 0.01 g) into a 150 mL conical flask with

stopper; add 30 mL of sodium acetate buffer, 0.2 g of pepsin, 0.05 g of amylase and 2

mL of potassium cyanide (or sodium cyanide) solution in turn; mix well. Put the sample

solution into a water bath constant temperature oscillator; at 37 °C, carry out enzymatic

hydrolysis for 30 minutes (for meat samples, carry out enzymatic hydrolysis for 10 h ~

16 h).

5.1.3 Purification

Connect the immunoaffinity column to the solid-phase extraction device. After

discarding the buffer in the immunoaffinity column, pipette an appropriate amount of

the above filtrate (containing 10 ng ~ 500 ng of vitamin B12) to pass through the column;

adjust the column passing speed to 2 mL/min ~ 3 mL/min. After the sample solution

has completely passed through the column, use 10 mL of water to rinse the

immunoaffinity column at a steady flow rate and drain. Place a 10 mL glass test tube

under the immunoaffinity column; use 3 mL of methanol to elute in three times; collect

all the eluates; use nitrogen flow to blow slowly below 60 °C until nearly dry; use 0.04%

trifluoroacetic acid solution to fix the volume to 1.0 mL; vortex for 30 s to dissolve the

residue; filter through a 0.22 µm filter; test.

5.2 Liquid chromatography reference conditions

5.2.1 Chromatographic column. C18 column (column length 150 mm, column inner

diameter 4.6 mm, packing particle size 2.5 µm), or equivalent.

5.2.2 Mobile phase. phase A, 0.04% trifluoroacetic acid solution; phase B, acetonitrile.
5.2.3 Gradient elution. 0 min ~ 6.0 min, 90% A; 6.0 min ~ 8.5 min, 90% ~ 0% A; 8.5

min ~ 14.0 min, 90% A.

5.2.4 Flow velocity. 0.8 mL/min.

5.3 Preparation of the standard curve

Inject the standard series solutions into the liquid chromatograph from low

concentration to high concentration in turn; measure the corresponding

chromatographic peak areas.

5.4 Sample determination

Inject the to-be-tested sample solution into the liquid chromatograph, to obtain the peak

area of vitamin B12 in the to-be-tested solution; measure the concentration of vitamin

B12 in the test solution according to the standard curve. The response value of vitamin

B12 in the to-be-tested sample solution shall be within the linear range of the standard

curve. If it exceeds the linear range, the solution on the machine shall be diluted, or the

sampling amount shall be adjusted and the analysis shall be carried out again after

processing according to the sample analysis steps.

5.5 Blank test

Do not weigh the sample; operate according to the sample analysis steps. Substances

that interfere with the to-be-measured components shall not be contained.

6 Description of the analysis results

The content of vitamin B12 (calculated as cyanocobalamin) in the sample is calculated

according to Formula (1).

7 Precision

The absolute difference of two independent test results obtained under repeatability

cannot exceed 15% of the arithmetic mean value.

8 Others

When the sampling amount is 5.00 g, the detection limit of foods for infants and young

children, dairy products, meat and meat products is 0.2 µg/100 g, and the quantification

limit is 0.5 µg/100 g.

9 Principle

After the sample is enzymatically hydrolyzed, use potassium cyanide (or sodium

cyanide) solution to convert cobalamin isomers (hydroxocobalamin, methylcobalamin

and 5-deoxyadenosylcobalamin, etc.) to cyanocobalamin. After the sample solution is

purified and concentrated by the immunoaffinity column, use the reversed-phase liquid

chromatography column for separation, the tandem mass spectrometry for detection,

and the isotope internal standard method for quantification.
