1 Scope
This standard specifies the method for determination of ethylenediaminetetraacetateedetate in food through liquid chromatograph.
This standard is applicable to the determination of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid disodium in jam, preserved fruit, canned pickled vegetables, vegetable puree (sauce) except tomato sauce, canned nuts and seeds, canned mixed congee, compound seasonings and beverages and the determination of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid disodium calcium in compound seasonings. This standard does not apply to the determination of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid ferric sodium in iron fortified soy sauce.
2 Principle
Extract the specimen of to be determined ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium by water. Add ferric chloride into the extracting solution for complexing. Purify the solution by mixed anion (PXA) solid phase extraction column, detect by liquid chromatograph, and quantify by external standard method. When determining compound seasoning, determine the total content of ferric chloride complex of ethylenediaminetetraacetateedetate firstly, and then the content of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium calcium. Identify the content of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid disodium according to the results.
