Abstract Low levels of nitrite (1-5 ppm) contributed by raw materials in new fabricated food products were successfully determined by a modification of an AOAC method for processed meats. Recoveries were greater than 90% for composite samples to which 5-10 ppm nitrite had been added. This method allows analyses of fabricated food products containing hydrogenated vegetable oils, soy proteins, and dried egg whites for low levels of nitrite.

Abstract A specific microfluorometric method for the determination of ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid, and total vitamin C in food products has been automated. The procedure developed is an adaptation of the official AOAC method (secs. 43.056–43.062), except that N-bromosuccinimide is used instead of Norit to oxidize vitamin C. Ascorbic acid is selectively oxidized by N-bromosuccinimide before other interfering substances that may be present, so this method is a highly sensitive and specific technique with extensive applicability. The proposed automated method is simple, rapid, reliable, and sufficiently sensitive to analyze as little as 2 × 10−3 to 0.1 mg ascorbic acid/ml. Analytical results obtained for ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid, and total vitamin C in a wide variety of food products are reported. The analytical system developed has the capability of analyzing 50 samples/hr.

Abstract A method for determining low levels of iodide in feeds and plants is proposed. The samples are mixed with a 10% phosphate solution to maintain relatively constant ionic strength and pH and analyzed with a solid-state iodide electrode. Ashing is not required and there are no significant interferences by ions commonly found in feeds. The method is accurate in determining iodide content ranging from 10.0 ppm to high concentrations. Necessary conditions for storing and cleaning the electrodes are described. The proposed method is rapid and results compare favorably with AOAC method 7.091.

The article presents the survey data of 1830 average samples of feed, feed raw materials and food products received through the Test Center of the FSBSI «FCTRBS-RRVI»", provided by livestock and feed enterprises, agricultural companies, food manufacturers and 152 samples of feed provided by specialists of veterinary services , livestock enterprises, owners of peasant farms to determine the death of animals and birds, for the content of mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) in the period from 2018 to 2020. Determination of the DON content in the samples was carried out according to a certified procedure based on the method of thin layer chromatography. In the course of summarizing the results, it was found that samples of feed, feed raw materials and food products received through the Test Center of the of the FSBSI «FCTRBS-RRVI» from different regions of the Russian Federation in terms of DON content corresponded to the normative indicators specified in the current regulatory and technical documentation. When determining the cause of death of animals and birds, 152 samples were examined, received from farms of different regions of the Republics of Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Mordovia, Kostroma and Ryazan regions. It was found that 1.97% of samples were contaminated with DON at concentrations from 0.2 to 0.5 mg/kg of feed, in the rest, the content of mycotoxin was below the sensitivity of the method (< 0.2 mg/kg), which does not exceed the limit permissible concentration. It was recommended to exclude feed contaminated with mycotoxin from the diet of animals, since at the established concentrations, DON is not the main etiological factor in the death of animals, but due to the presence of carcinogenic, mutagenic, teratogenic, embryotoxic and immunosuppressive properties, together with other factors, it is contributing.

New Challenges

Due to the increasing globalization of food markets, there are evolving new challenges for maintaing food safety. The current problem is the development of analytical methods for 3-monochloropropanediol ester and glycidol ester, which are food contaminants of concern for the scientific community. The levels of 3-monochloropropanediol ester and glycidol ester in certain food products are controlled by the European legislation. However, the maximum allowed concentrations and uptake limits for various food products are permanently revised. Therefore, we aimed to determine 3-monochloropropanediol ester and glycidol ester in various food products, which may contain vegetable oils. We analyzed food samples obtained from local food shops, predominantly low-priced products, which are more likely to contain vegetable oils, and adulterated milk fat. The levels of 3-monochloropropanediol ester and glycidol ester were determined indirectly by analyzing free 3-monochloropropanediol and glycidol ester obtained by hydrolysis and derivatized with phenylboronic acid. Samples were analyzed by GC-MS/MS on a triple-quad mass spectrometer.

Abstract An infrared spectrophotometric (IR) method for the determination of total trans unsaturated fatty acid (trans) content and a combined gas–liquid chromatographic/infrared spectrophotometric (GC/IR) method for determination of fatty acid composition of partially hydrogenated vegetable oils (PHVO) were studied collaboratively in 12 laboratories using 7 PHVO samples, including 1 pair of blind duplicates. The test samples were methylated and analyzed for total trans content by IR and for fatty acid composition by GC/IR using a capillary column coated with SP-2560 or another suitable cyanoalkylsiloxane stationary phase. From the measured IR absorption, the isolated trans content was calculated using a calibration curve of absorption versus trans content developed with 2-component calibration standard mixtures of methyl elaidate and oleate. The GC provided the levels of mono-trans-octadecadienoates (18:2t), di-trans-octadecadienoates (18:2tt) and mono-trans-octadecatrienoates (18:3t). The trans-octadecenoate (18:1t) content was calculated with the formula: 18:1t = IR trans−0.84 × (18:2t + 18:3t − 1.74 × 18:2tt. The cisoctadecenoate (18:1c) content was obtained as the difference between total octadecenoates (18:1) and 18:1t. Reproducibility relative standard deviations (RSDR) for 15 to 35% trans content determined by IR were in the range of 8.8–11.7%, whereas RSDR for the test sample with 5% trans content was 34.6%. RSDR values for 18:1t by the GC/IR followed the same pattern as that of IR trans values: 36.4% for the test sample with 4.9% 18:1t versus 7.8–12.5% for test samples with 14.9 to 32.6% 18:1t. The content of 18:1 c in the test samples varied from 24.7 to 34.5% and their RSDR values ranged from 3.8 to 10.5%. The mean values for 18:1t and 18:1c compared favorably with the absolute levels determined by a silver nitrate-thin layer chromatography/GC procedure. The IR and GC/IR methods are recommended for determination of trans content and fatty acid composition, respectively, of partially hydrogenated fats derived from vegetable oils, terrestrial animal fats or such oils and fats isolated from food products containing &gt;5% trans fatty acids. For samples containing ≤5% trans fatty acids, a direct GC method (American Oil Chemists' Society Official Method Ce 1c-89) is available for determination of both trans content and fatty acid composition, because at lower trans levels, overlap of 18:1 cis and trans isomers on GC with very polar capillary columns is negligible. The IR method for determination of isolated trans unsaturated fatty acid content in partially hydrogenated fats and the capillary GC/IR method for determination of total cis- and trans-octadecenoic isomers and general fatty acid composition in hydrogenated vegetable oils and animal fats have been adopted first action by AOAC INTERNATIONAL.

Abstract Extraneous material was separated from feed and food products by a modified technique in which kerosene is used in a specially designed flotation flask. This technique, although effective for analyzing feed and foods, presented limitations in the analysis of finely powdered materials. Some procedural modifications and an increased in the capacity of the flotation flask from 500 to 750 mL allowed a larger sample weight (20 g) to be analyzed for mites, insect fragments, and rodent hairs, with considerably reduced residue interference. In trials with a variety of products seeded with known numbers of mites, average recovery was 83%. Recoveries of 89% were obtained from flour samples seeded with insect fragments and rodent hairs. A new process of suspending extracted mites in a mixture of industrial methylated spirit (46%) and glycerol (54%) by volume was used to allow rapid and more precise estimates of mite populations in heavily infested samples.

Abstract The IUPAC Commission on Oils, Fats and Derivatives undertook development of a method and collaborative study for the determination of triglycerides in vegetable oils by liquid chromatography. Three collaborative studies were conducted from 1985 to 1987. Refinements were made in the method after the first collaborative study, and the second and third collaborative studies demonstrated that the method produces acceptable results. Materials studied were soybean oil, almond oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, rapeseed oil, and blends of palm and sunflower oils, and almond and sunflower oils. Six test samples were analyzed by 18 laboratories from 11 countries in the second study; 4 test samples were analyzed by 16 laboratories from 12 countries in the third study. The method for determination of triglycerides (by partition numbers) in vegetable oils by liquid chromatography was adopted first action by AOAC INTERNATIONAL as an IUPAC–AOCS–AOAC method.
