Abstract A method has been developed for separation and determination of 5 sugars in foods. Mixtures of sugars were separated by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a μBondapak/carbohydrate column and acetonitrile-water (80 + 20) as the mobile phase. For the gas-liquid chromatographic (GLC) determination, the sugars were reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to give the oximes, which were then converted to trimethylsilyl derivatives. The derivatives were separated on an 8 ft column containing 3% JXR as the liquid phase. The GLC preparative time was considerably longer than that for HPLC. Both methods were applied to the determination of fructose, glucose, sucrose, maltose, and lactose in processed foods. Recovery studies showed better accuracy for the HPLC method. Because of incomplete derivatization and/or the formation of anomers, the GLC method was not applicable to all foods.

Abstract The high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method is capable of detecting from 1 to 0.024 ppm methyl 3-(2-quinoxalinyl-methylene) carhazate-Nl,N4-dioxido (carbadox). Carbadox is extracted from the feed with 2% NH4OH in acetone, passed through a liquid-liquid partition, subjected to HPLC, and detected by using a 365 nm detector. No feed materials or other active drug ingredients produced false positive results.

Abstract A high-pressure liquid chromatographic procedure is described for the determination of benzo (a) pyrene and benzo(ghi)perylene. These polynuclear aromatics are extracted with acetonitrile and partitioned into petroleum ether, the petroleum ether is removed, and the residue is saponified. The compounds are purified and isolated by passing the residue through a silica gel column and a high-pressure liquid chromatographic column, and detected by their ultraviolet absorption. Recoveries of standards through the procedure averaged 104%.

Abstract A simple and rapid quantitative method is described for determining the presence and amount of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) in mineral feed premixes by high pressure liquid chromatography. The samples were extracted with dichloromethane–pentane–methanol (46+46+8) after treatment with ammonium hydroxide, cleaned up by silica Sep-pak, and analyzed by normal phase high pressure liquid chromatography: 10 μm LiChrosorb NH2 column, hexane-isopropanol (98+2) mobile phase, ultraviolet detection at 254 nm. Recoveries were better than 95% in the range 25 000–100 000 IU/kg.

Abstract A rapid and sensitive high pressure liquid chromatographic method for the analysis of dexamethasone (9α-fluoro-11β,17α,21-trihydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione) in milk has been developed. The corticosteroid can be quantitated at 20 ppb, with the limit of detectability estimated at 5 ppb. Recoveries ranged from 72 to 94%. After dexamethasone was injected into 5 Holstein-Friesian cows, no residues were found in milk, even after the first milking.

Abstract High pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) is used in the reverse phase mode for the determination of intermediates and subsidiary colors in commercial samples of FD&C Blue No. 2. Isatin-5-sulfonic acid and the lower sulfonated subsidiary color are determined in one run. A second run at lower concentration is required to quantitate the isomeric subsidiary color, since it is present in large amounts and tends to saturate the detector. The calibration and recovery data are treated statistically to evaluate the performance of the method.

ABSTRACT A new high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the determination of progesterone in the presence of other Δ43-ketosteroids is described. Using this method it is shown that the rate of production of progesterone from pregn-5-ene-3,20-dione by rat ovarian homogenate is initially rapid but falls to zero within 10 min. Experiments indicate that the inhibition is due to the progesterone formed. Inclusion of RMI 12,936 with the pregn-5-ene-3,20-dione substrate results in a lower final level of progesterone and continuous production of 7α-methyltestosterone. The reduction in the levels of progesterone in presence of RMI 12,936 corresponds closely to the reduction in plasma progesterone in vivo following administration of RMI 12,936 described preivously.

Abstract Ten analysts representing 7 laboratories participated in the evaluation of a high-pressure liquid chromatographic procedure for the determination of 4,4′-diazoaminobis(5-methoxy-2-methylbenzenesulfonic acid) (DMMA) in FD&C Red No. 40; each collaborator analyzed 7 samples. Between-laboratory standard deviations ranged from 0.0015 to 0.0033% for samples nominally containing 0–0.05% DMMA. The stability of DMMA vs. pH was also studied. It is recommended that the high-pressure liquid chromatographic method be further studied.

Abstract A method was developed for determining methyl and propyl p-hydroxybenzoates (methyl and propyl parabens) in comminuted meats. The parabens were extracted from the meat sample with acetonitrile. After filtering, the extract was analyzed by reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography, using a 254 nm absorbance detector. Samples of bologna, chicken roll, and chopped ham were fortified with approximately 100,200, and 400 ppm of each paraben. Average recoveries were 92% for methyl paraben and 94% for propyl paraben.
