18、hat the analysis of isolated soy protein leads to false positive results in the range of 20 mg/kg to 30 mg/kg expressed as sulfur dioxide. Therefore, when analysing foodstuffs containing isolated soy proteins a proportional enhancement of the result may be obtained and is taken into account. Introdu

19、ction Sulfite can be used as a preservative of foodstuffs. In order to minimize possible negative health effects, many countries have regulated the use of sulfite in foods. This has resulted in the development of several methods of analysis to detect the presence and quantity of sulfite in a great v

20、ariety of foods. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a distillation method for the determination of the sulfite content, expressed as sulfur dioxide, in foodstuffs, in which the content of sulfite is at least 10 mg/kg. The method is applicable in the presence of other volatile sulfur compounds.

21、 It is not applicable to cabbage, dried garlic, dried onions, ginger, leeks and soy proteins 1) . It has been shown that the analysis of isolated soy protein leads to false positive results. Specific products, for which European Standards for the determination of the sulfites exist, are excluded fro

24、aboratory use Specification and test methods (ISO 3696:1987). 3 Principle Free sulfite plus reproducible portion of bound sulfites (such as carbonyl addition products) in foods are measured. The test portion is heated with a refluxing solution of hydrochloric acid to convert sulfite to sulfur dioxid

25、e. A stream of nitrogen is introduced below the surface of the refluxing solution to sweep sulfur dioxide through a water-cooled condenser and, via a bubbler attached to the condenser, into the hydrogen peroxide solution, where sulfur dioxide is oxidized to sulfuric acid. The generated sulfuric acid

26、 is titrated with standardized sodium hydroxide solution. The sulfite content is directly related to the generated sulfuric acid. See 1, 2. 4 Reagents During the analysis, unless otherwise stated, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only water of at least grade 3 as defined in EN IS

27、O 3696. 4.1 Hydrochloric acid, substance concentration c(HCl) = 4 mol/l. For each analysis, prepare 90 ml of solution by adding (carefully) 30 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid (36 %) to 60 ml of water and mix. Prepare a fresh solution daily. 4.2 Sodium hydroxide standard solution, c(NaOH) = 0,01

28、0 mol/l. 4.3 Methyl red indicator. Dissolve 250 mg of methyl red in 100 ml of ethanol. 4.4 Hydrogen peroxide solution, volume fraction f (H 2 O 2 )=3% . Just prior to use, add 3 drops of methyl red indicator and titrate with sodium hydroxide standard solution (4.2) to yellow end point. If end point

29、is exceeded, discard the solution. 4.5 Ethanol or methylated spirit. 4.6 Ethanolwater mixture, volume fraction f of ethanol = 5 %. 4.7 Nitrogen. High purity, used with regulator to maintain flow of 200 ml/min. To guard against oxygen in nitrogen gas, use an absorber as used in the gas chromatographi

30、c analysis. Alternatively, an oxygen-scrubbing solution, such as alkaline 1,2,3 trihydroxibenzene (pyrogallol), in a gas-washing bottle may be used. Prepare the gas-washing bottle as follows. Add 4,5 g of 1,2,3 trihydroxibenzene to the gas-washing bottle. Purge the gas-washing bottle with nitrogen f

31、or 2 min to 3 min. Prepare a potassium hydroxide solution by adding 65 g of potassium hydroxide to 85 ml of water. (Caution: heat is generated). Add the potassium hydroxide solution to the gas-washing bottle while an atmosphere of nitrogen is maintained in the gas-washing bottle.Page 4 EN 1988-1:199

This information does not constitute an endorsement by CEN of the glassware named. Equivalent glassware (such as the distillation appa

33、ratus described in ISO 5522:1981, see 3 in annex A of this standard) may be used if it can be shown to lead to the same results. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Distillation apparatus. Assemble the apparatus 2) (see Figure 1), which includes the following. Inlet adapter (1) with hose connector and rubber bulb to ap

The use of a pressure equalizing dropping funnel is not recommended because the condensate, possibly containing sulfur dioxide, is deposited in the funnel and side arm. Cylindrical dropping funnel (2) of$ 100 ml capacity. Round-bottomed flask (3) of capacity 1

Gas inlet tube (4) of sufficient length to permit the introduction of nitrogen within 25 mm of the bottom of the flask. 1 Inlet adapter 2 Cylindrical dropping funnel 3 Round-bottomed flask 4 Gas inlet tube 5 Bulb condenser 6 Bubbler 7 Vessel Figure 1 Distill

Vessel (7), of approximately 25 mm inner diameter and 180 mm length. NOTE If back pressure is kept as low as possible, losses of sulf

37、ur dioxide through leaks can be avoided. A thin film of stopcock grease on sealing surfaces of all joints except the joint between the cylindrical dropping funnel and the flask is helpful. Joints which are clamped together help to ensure a complete seal throughout the analysis. 5.2 Burette, of capac

NOTE To become

41、familiar and proficient with the method before routine use, it is recommended that food test portions containing known amounts of sulfite are analysed. The analysis should be performed in a manner that precludes any loss of sulfite by oxidation or reaction with components in food. Since sulfites are

42、 reactive with air and food matrices and often lack stability, portions are fortified with a stable source of sulfite, not sodium sulfite or similar salts. Sodium hydroxymethylsulfonate (HMS), which is a bisulfite addition product of formaldehyde and which is structurally similar to some combined fo

43、rms of sulfite in foods, is useful for preparing stable fortified test materials. For analysis, 50 g of prepared sample of sulfite-free food are transferred to the flask (Figure 1; item 3). An aliquot portion of aqueous solution of HMS sodium salt is added. The solution is analysed immediately. HMS

44、recoveries of more than 80 % from food matrices fortified at 10 mg/kg are recommended to ensure accurate analytical data. 6.2 Sample preparation 6.2.1 Solid samples Transfer 50 g of food, or a quantity that contains 500mg to 1500mg of sulfur dioxide, to a food processor or blender. Add 100 ml of the

45、 ethanol/water mixture (4.6) and briefly grind the mixture. Continue the grinding or blending only until the food is chopped into pieces small enough to pass through the ground glass joint of the flask (Figure 1; item 3). 6.2.2 Liquid samples Mix 50 g of test sample, or quantity that contains 500mg

46、to 1500mg of sulfur dioxide, with 100 ml of the ethanol/water mixture (4.6). 6.3 System preparation Use the distillation apparatus (5.1) assembled as shown in Figure 1, put the flask (Figure 1; item 3) in the heating mantle (5.4) and add 400 ml of water to the flask. Close the stopcock of the funnel

47、 (Figure 1; item 2) and add 90 ml of hydrochloric acid solution (4.1) to the funnel. Begin nitrogen flow at 200 ml/min 10 ml/min and initiate the condenser coolant (5.3) flow. Add 30 ml of 3 % hydrogen peroxide solution (4.4) to the vessel (Figure 1; item 7). After 15 min, the apparatus and water wi

48、ll be thoroughly deoxygenated and the prepared test portion may be introduced into the apparatus. 6.4 Sample introduction and distillation Remove the dropping funnel (Figure 1; item 2) and quantitatively transfer the test portion in aqueous ethanol to the flask (Figure 1; item 3). Wipe the tapered j

49、oint clean with a laboratory tissue, quickly apply stopcock grease to the outer joint of the funnel, and return the funnel to the flask. Examine each joint to be sure that it is sealed. Use a rubber bulb equipped with a valve to apply head pressure above the hydrochloric acid solution in the funnel. Open the stopcock of the funnel and let hydrochloric acid solution flow into the flask. Continue to maintain sufficient pressure above the hydrochloric acid solution to force the solution into the flask. The stopco
