Abstract
Abstract A simple and effective one-step pre-column derivatization method for reversed-phase HPLC-UV determination of the major organic acids (citric, malic, tartaric, and succinic acids) in fruit juices has been developed. The method is based on the coupling reaction of organic acids with 1-naphthylamine in the presence of N,N′-diisopropylcarbodiimide. The resulting organic acid amide derivatives were successfully separated on an AQ-C18 column and detected by a UV detector at 222 nm. Isocratic elution was performed using an acetonitrile-methanol-tetrahydrofuran-water (37:4:1:58; v/v) mixture as a mobile phase at a flow rate of 2.0 mL/min. Validation studies showed good recoveries ranging from 88.97 to 92.52% with RSD % between 2.95 and 4.56%. The detection limits obtained were 0.18, 0.48, 0.14, and 0.69 µg/mL for tartaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid, and citric acid, respectively. The method was successfully applied to three different commercial fruit juice and nectar samples with little or no clean-up procedures. Graphical Abstract
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Liquid Chromatography & Related Technologies is an internationally acclaimed forum for fast publication of critical, peer reviewed manuscripts dealing with analytical, preparative and process scale liquid chromatography and all of its related technologies, including TLC, capillary electrophoresis, capillary electrochromatography, supercritical fluid chromatography and extraction, field-flow technologies, affinity, and much more. New separation methodologies are added when they are developed. Papers dealing with research and development results, as well as critical reviews of important technologies, are published in the Journal.
