Abstract Cholesterol can be determined colorimetrically in dairy products at levels of ≥10 μg (coefficient of variation = 5.3%) with an o-phthalaldehyde reagent when non-cholesterol lipids arc eliminated prior to color development. Absorbance for 2 mg tripalmitin was found to be equivalent to about 20 μg cholesterol. Saponification followed by hexane extraction removed interfering lipids. Using the described procedure, 238 individual raw milk samples were found to contain 144.4±37.9 μg cholesterol/ml, while their skim milk portions had 26.5±6.4 μg cholesterol/ml (mean ± standard deviation). The o-phthalaldehyde cholesterol estimates agreed with those obtained by a gas-liquid chromatographic procedure when cheese and ice cream were analyzed by the colorimetric procedure with and without prior fat extraction.

Abstract Official methods for the measurement of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in dairy products use either phenyl phosphate or phenolphthaleln monophosphate as substrate. Quantitation of results requires butanol extraction of the Indophenol (Scharer) or 3-h dialysis of the liberated phenolphthaleln (Rutgers). The Advanced Fluorophos® assay Is based on a self-indicating substrate which, when acted upon by ALP, loses a phosphate radical and becomes a highly fluorescent compound. The rate of fluorophore formation Is monitored for 3 mln In a fluorometer and the enzyme activity In mU/L Is calculated. Eight laboratories participated in a collaborative study to evaluate the Fluorophos® assay for determining ALP activity In whole milk, skim milk, chocolate milk, and cream (half and half). The comparative method was the AOAC quantitative phenyl phosphate method, 16.121-16.122 (14th Ed.). Mixed herd raw milk was added to pasteurized samples at 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2% (v/v). Method performance at 0.1% (v/v) added raw milk as measured by repeatability and reproducibility standard deviations (sr and sR) and relative standard deviations (RSDr and RSDR), respectively, were: whole milk, sr = 21.7%, sR = 34.6%, RSDr = 4.4%, RSDR = 7.0%; skim milk, sr = 19.2%, sR = 31.4%, RSDr = 3.8%, RSDR = 6.2%; chocolate milk, sr = 27.6%, sR = 45.8%, RSDr = 5.3%, RSDR = 8.8%. The method has been adopted official first action by AOAC for determination of alkaline phosphatase in whole milk, skim milk, and chocolate milk.

Hydrolysis Of

Abstract Synthesis of acetylsulfamethazine has made possible an evaluation of the Bratton-Marshall assay for this compound. Hydrolysis is an essential step in the assay, which depends on color development with the sulfamethazine formed in the hydrolysis. Sulfamethazine decomposes under the conditions needed for hydrolysis of acetylsulfamethazine, and this leads to depressed values for acetylsulfamethazine and to low figures for clinical "percent acetylation." Because of this, a simple "high-pressure" liquid-chromatographic procedure was developed for the assay; it requires no hydrolysis, is rapid in application, and can be applied to as little as 10 microL of capillary blood obtained by finger-to-puncture. We found that the cutoff point between "slow" and "fast" acetylators, when this method was used on samples from 75 subjects collected about 6 h after dosage, was 40% "acetylation" in plasma.

Abstract The coccidiostat aklomide is extracted from feed with methanol and assayed colorimetrically by reduction of the nitro group to anamine with titanium trichloride and subsequent color development with t he Bratton-Marshall reaction. Thirteen laboratories studied the method collaboratively on two levels of medicated feed. Overall average recovery was 106.5% of the oretical for the low level and 104.5% of the oretical for the high level. The method is recommended for adoption as official first action

Limited Application

The triammonium salt of aurin tricarboxylic acid, commonly referred to as aluminon, forms a dye that has been used for the colorimetric determination of Al(III) species. We have reviewed the pertinent literature on the reaction of aluminon with respect to the metallic species that form colored aluminon complexes. The effects of experimental variables, such as time, temperature, and pH, upon the color development of the aluminon complex are also presented. Organic and inorganic species, particularly Be(II) and Fe(III), which can affect color formation, are described. The use of aluminon as a histochemical staining agent for the detection of aluminum requires verification by atomic absorption spectrophotometric analysis or other quantitative techniques.

This study was conducted to develop a selective and sensitive method for the determination of bisphenol A (BPA) levels in milk and dairy products. A method based on solvent extraction with acetonitrile and solid-phase extraction (SPE) was developed for the analysis of BPA in milk, yogurt, cream, butter, pudding, condensed milk, and flavored milk, and a method using two SPE cartridges (OASIS HLB and Florisil cartridge) for skim milk was also developed. The developed methods showed good recovery levels (77 to 102%) together with low detection limits (1 μg/liter for milk, yogurt, pudding, condensed milk, flavored milk, and skim milk and 3 μg/liter for cream and butter). These methods are simple, sensitive, and suitable for the analysis of BPA in milk and dairy products. When 40 milk and dairy products were analyzed by the proposed methods, BPA was not identified in noncanned products, but its levels ranged from 21 to 43 μg/kg in canned products, levels that were 60- to 140-fold lower than the migration limits in the European Union and Japan.

Abstract A method is presented for the quantitative analysis of o-phenylphenol residues in citrus oils, encapsulated flavors, and dried meal. The method utilizes high-speed liquid chromatography for the determination after specific sample preparations for each material. These preparations include hexane extraction of acidified basic extracts or steam distillation and extraction. The limit of the analysis is <1 ppm with an analysis time of <45 min.
