Scope
GB/T 15400-2018 is the English-translated version of 饲料中色氨酸的测定.
GB/T 15400-2018 gives two laboratory methods for determining tryptophan in feeds: high performance liquid chromatography, which is the arbitration method, and spectrophotometry.
It applies to feed ingredients, compound feeds, concentrated feeds and concentrate supplements.
In the chromatographic method the sample is hydrolysed with lithium hydroxide solution, and tryptophan is separated, detected with an ultraviolet or fluorescence detector and quantified by external standard; the reagents are listed, from methanol and sodium acetate buffer to the L-tryptophan stock and calibration solutions.
The limit of quantitation is 0.02% for chromatography and 0.04% for the photometric method. Compared with the 1994 edition it adds the chromatographic method and revises the principle and the precision statements.
It replaces GB/T 15400-1994, was issued on 17 September 2018 and has applied since 1 April 2019.

Foreword
This standard was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.
This standard replaces GB/T 15400-1994 "Determination of tryptophan in feed by spectrophotometry".
Compared with GB/T 15400-1994, this standard changes the main technical contents except for editorial changes.
--- Added high performance liquid chromatography, modified the applicable object, and increased the limit of quantitation of the two methods (see Chapter 1, 1994 edition) Chapter 1).
--- Revised the expression of the principle of spectrophotometry (see Chapter 4.1, Chapter 3 of the 1994 edition).
--- Revised the expression of precision (see 4.7, 8.3 of the 1994 edition).
1 Scope
This standard specifies high performance liquid chromatography and spectrophotometry for the determination of tryptophan in feed.
This standard applies to the determination of tryptophan in feed ingredients, compound feed, concentrated feed and concentrate supplements.
The limit of quantitation of high performance liquid chromatography is 0.02%; when the maximum sample weight of the sample is 700mg, and the dilution factor of the hydrolyzate is 25 times, The limit of quantitation of the photometric method is 0.04%.

3 High performance liquid chromatography (arbitration method)
3.1 Principle
The tryptophan in the sample is hydrolyzed by lithium hydroxide solution, separated by high performance liquid chromatography, detected by ultraviolet or fluorescence detector, external standard method Quantitative.
3.2 Reagents or materials
Unless otherwise specified, the reagents used in this standard are of analytical grade.
3.2.1 Water. Meet the requirements of the first grade water in GB/T 6682.
3.2.2 Methanol. chromatographically pure.
3.2.3 Potassium hydroxide solution (0.1mol/L). Weigh 0.56g of potassium hydroxide and dissolve it in 100mL of water.
3.2.4 Lithium hydroxide solution (4mol/L). Weigh 83.9g of lithium hydroxide and dissolve it in 500mL of water.
3.2.5 sodium acetate buffer solution (0.0085mol/LNa, pH=4.5). Weigh 0.70g of anhydrous sodium acetate and dissolve it in 1000mL of water. The pH was adjusted to 4.5 with glacial acetic acid.
3.2.6 Mobile phase. sodium acetate buffer solution (3.2.5) methanol (3.2.2) = 95 5.
3.2.7 L-tryptophan standard stock solution. accurately weigh 25mg (accurate to 0.0001g) tryptophan reference substance (purity greater than 99%), set In a 25 mL beaker, add potassium hydroxide solution (3.2.3) dropwise with a dropper to dissolve it, and quantitatively transfer it to a 250 mL brown volumetric flask. The volume was adjusted to a concentration of 100 µg/mL. Store at 2 ° C ~ 8 ° C, valid for 1 month.
3.2.8 L-tryptophan standard series solution. accurately remove L-tryptophan standard stock solution (3.2.7) 5.00mL, 7.50mL, 10.00 mL, 12.50 mL, 15.00 mL, and 17.50 mL were placed in a 25 mL brown volumetric flask, and the volume was adjusted to the mark with water and shaken. its The solution concentrations were 20 µg/mL, 30 µg/mL, 40 µg/mL, 50 µg/mL, 60 µg/mL, and 70 µg/mL, respectively. 2 ° C ~ 8 ° C Save, valid for 2 weeks.
