Foreword
This standard replaces GB/T 5009.84-2003 "Determination of thiamine (vitamin
B1) in foods", GB 5413.11-2010 "National food safety standard - Determination
of vitamin B1 in foods for infants and young children, milk and milk products",
GB/T 7628- 2008 "Determination of vitamin B1 in cereals", GB/T 9695.27-2008
"Meat and meat products - Determination of vitamin B1 content".
As compared with GB/T 5009.84-2003, the main changes of this standard are
as follows.
- CHANGE the standard name into "National food safety standard -
Determination of Vitamin B1 in foods";
- ADD the high performance liquid chromatography as the first method, USE
the fluorescence spectrophotometry as the second method;
- MODIFY the expression of detection limit, ADD the quantitative limits of
method;
- ADD the qualitative identification method of chloride ion in the artificial
zeolite pretreatment;
- ADD the color change characteristics of the solution when using the
bromocresol green as the indicator;
- DELETE the Figure 1 (reaction bottle) and Figure 2 (base salt exchange
tube) structure;
- ADD the weighing amount of artificial zeolite when it is expressed in wet
weight.
National food safety standard -
Determination of vitamin B1 in foods
1 Scope
This standard specifies the method for determining the vitamin B1 in foods by
the high performance liquid chromatography and fluorescence
spectrophotometry.
This standard applies to the determination of vitamin B1 content in food.
Method 1.High performance liquid chromatography
2 Principles
Samples are hydrolyzed, neutralized, then rehydrated in dilute hydrochloric acid
medium at constant temperature. The hydrolyzate is derivatized by alkaline
potassium ferricyanide solution, extracted with n-butanol, separated by C18
reversed-phase column, detected by high performance liquid chromatography-
fluorescence detector, quantified by external standard method.
3 Reagents and materials
Unless otherwise indicated, the reagents used in this method are of analytical
pure, the water is level I water as specified in GB/T 6682.
3.1 Reagents
3.1.1 n-butanol (CH3CH2CH2CH2OH).
3.1.10 Amylase. it shall not contain vitamin B1, enzyme activity >= 3700 U/g.
3.2 Reagent preparation
3.2.1 Potassium ferricyanide solution (20 g/L). WEIGH 2 g of potassium
ferricyanide, USE water to dissolve it, MAKE its volume reach to 100 mL,
SHAKE it uniformly. PREPARE it before use.
3.2.2 Sodium hydroxide solution (100 g/L). WEIGH 25g of sodium hydroxide,
3.2.6 Sodium acetate solution (0.05 mol/L). WEIGH 6.80 g of sodium acetate,
ADD 900 mL of water to dissolve it, USE glacial acetic acid to adjust the pH
between 4.0 to 5.0, ADD water to make the volume reach to 1000 mL. USE
0.45 µm microporous membrane to filter it before use.
3.2.7 Sodium acetate solution (2.0 mol/L). WEIGH 27.2 g of sodium acetate,
USE water to dissolve it, MAKE its volume reach to 100 mL, SHAKE it uniformly.
3.3 Standard substances
Vitamin B1 standard substance. thiamine hydrochloride (C12H17ClN4OS - HCl)),
CAS. 67-03-8, purity >= 99.0%.
3.4 Standard solution preparation
4 Instruments and equipment
4.1 High performance liquid chromatograph with fluorescence detector.
4.3 Centrifuge. speed >= 4000 r/min.
4.6 Electric oven or autoclave.
5 Analytical procedures
5.1 Specimen preparation
5.1.1 Liquid or solid powder samples. Immediately after the sample is well-
mixed, MAKE determination in time or PRESERVE it in refrigerator.
5.1.2 Fresh fruits, vegetables and meat.
5.1.3 Other solid samples with lower moisture content. for example, the grain
having a moisture content at about 15%, TAKE about 100 g of sample, USE
crusher to crush the sample to obtain the power of constant uniformity, MAKE
determination in time or PRESERVE it in refrigerator.
5.2 Preparation of specimen solution
5.2.1 Test solution extraction
WEIGH 3 g ~ 5 g (accurate to 0.01 g) of solid sample or 10 g ~ 20 g of liquid
sample, PLACE it into a 100 mL conical flask (with a soft stopper), ADD 60 mL
of 0.1 mol/L hydrochloric acid solution, SHAKE it uniformly, PLUG the soft
stopper, PLACE it in the autoclave at 121 °C for 30 min. After finishing
hydrolysis and cooling it to below 40 °C, TAKE it out, SHAKE it gently for several
times; U
5.3 Instrument reference conditions
5.3.1 Column. C18 reversed-phase column (particle size 5 µm, 250 mm x 4.6
mm) or equivalent.
5.3.2 Mobile phase. 0.05 mol/L sodium acetate solution - methanol (65 + 35).
5.4 Standard curve production
INJECT the standard series working solution derivative into the high
performance liquid chromatograph to determine the corresponding peak area
of vitamin B1, USE the standard working solution concentration (µg/mL) as the
abscissa, the peak area as the vertical axis, to draw the standard curve.
5.5 Determination of the specimen solution
In accordance with the chromatographic conditions of clause 5.3, INJECT the
specimen derivative solution into a high performance liquid chromatograph to
obtain the peak area of vitamin B1, CALCULATE the concentration of vitamin
B1 in the solution to be determined in accordance with the standard curve.
6 Expression of analytical results
Sample vitamin B1 (by thiamine) content is calculated in accordance with the
formula (1).
7 Precision
The absolute difference between two independent determinations obtained
under repeatability conditions shall not exceed 10% of the arithmetic mean.
8 Others
When the amount of weighing sample is 10.0 g, in accordance with the constant
volume of this standard method, the detection limit of vitamin B1 in food is 0.03
mg/100 g, the limit of quantitation is 0.10 mg/100 g.
9 Principles
Thiamin is oxidized to thiopyrimidine in alkaline potassium ferricyanide solution,
under the irradiation of ultraviolet light, the thiopyrimidine fluoresces. Under the
given conditions where there is no interference from other fluorescent
substance, the intensity of this fluorescence is proportional to the amount of
thiopyrimidine amount, i.e.,
