24、to minimize the amount of air included. 7.1.2 Impure liquid or set honey After removing coarse impurities, stir the honey at ambient temperature until smooth and pass it through a screen (as in subclause 6.2), using a spatula in the case of set honey. DIN 10762:2004-06 6 7.1.3 Comb honey De-cap the

25、combs if still capped, then separate the honey completely from the combs without heating, using a screen (as in subclause 6.2). 7.2 Preparation of sample solution Weigh about 20 g of the sample prepared as in subclause 7.1 to an accuracy of 1 mg into a 100 ml beaker or a 100 ml conical flask (as in

26、subclause 6.3) and add about 60 ml of water while stirring. Transfer the content of the beaker or the conical flask quantitatively to a 100 ml volumetric flask, completing the transfer by rinsing the container with water. Then add 1,0 ml of Carrez solution no. 1 (as in subclause 5.3) followed by 1,0

27、 ml Carrez solution no. 2 (as in subclause 5.4). Mix thoroughly and make the contents of the flask up to the mark. NOTE If cloudiness occurs, neutralize the solution using sodium hydroxide solution (as in subclause 5.5). Filter the contents of the flask through a fluted filter (as in subclause 6.6)

28、into a conical flask (as in subclause 6.4). Use the filtrate (sample solution) for the ethanol (determination as in subclause 7.3). 7.3 Preparation of test solutions and determination React the blank solution and the test solution (as in subclause 7.2) using the pipetting procedure shown in table 1

29、and perform the analysis under the following conditions: Wavelength: 340 nm, Hg 365 nm or Hg 334 nm Cell: 1,00 cm path length Temperature: 20 C to 25 C Test volume: 3,55 ml Determination against air (no cell in beam path), water or blank Sample solution: 0,3 g to 12 g of ethanol per cell (in 0,1 ml

30、to 0,5 ml sample volume) Seal the cells during the determination, e.g. with laboratory foil. Troublesome bubble formation at the inside wall of the cell can be cured by sharply tapping the cell or by briefly dipping one corner of the cell into an ultrasonic bath. Because ethanol is very volatile, th

31、e following measures shall be adopted in handling the sample, in preparing dilutions and when pipetting the sample solution into the cell: a) the filtrate shall not be added to the collecting vessel in drops but shall be allowed to run down its walls; b) when alcohol-containing solutions are dispens

32、ed, they shall always be pipetted underneath the surface of the water (when preparing dilutions) or of the buffer (in the case of the mixture used for analysis); c) when pipetting very dilute sample solutions into the test solution, the enzyme assay pipette (as in subclause 6.5) shall be rinsed at l

33、east six times beforehand and the pipette tip of a piston-operated pipette (as in subclause 6.5) shall be rinsed at least three times beforehand; d) the same piston-operated pipette shall never be used for diluting alcohol-containing samples and for adding reagents; e) the atmosphere and the water s

34、hall both be alcohol-free. DIN 10762:2004-06 7 Table 1 Pipetting procedure Pipette into the cells Blank, in ml Test solution, in ml Reaction mixture (as in 5.9) 3,00 3,00 Water (as in 5.2) 0,50 Sample solution (as in 7.2) 0,50 After sealing with laboratory foil, mix using e.g. a stirring spatula or

35、by swirling. Before adding the sample solution rinse the enzyme assay pipette or the tip of the piston-operated pipette with sample solution. After about three minutes measure the absorbance (E1) and then start the reaction by adding: Alcohol dehydrogenase solution (as in 5.10) 0,05 0,05 Mix the sol

36、ution and, after about 5 to 10 minutes measure the absorbances of the solutions immediately after one another (E2). The amount of ethanol in the sample solution shall be between 0,5 g and 12 g (for measurement at 365 nm) or 0,3 g and 6 g (for measurement at 340 or 334 nm). To achieve a sufficiently

37、large difference in absorbance, dilute the sample solution until the ethanol concentration is between 0,02 g/l and 0,12 g/l or 0,01 g/l and 0,06 g/l, respectively. 8 Calculation Calculate the differential absorbance, E, from the difference in absorbance between the sample (test solution) and the bla

38、nk using equation (1): E = (E2 E1)test solution (E2 E1)blank(1) To obtain a sufficiently accurate result, the measured differential absorbance E shall generally be at least 0,100 absorbance units. Calculate the concentration by mass for which the amount of substrate is equivalent to twice the amount

39、 of NADH using equation (2): EVdMV=000120001PT (2) where is the concentration by mass of ethanol, in mg/l; VTis the test volume, in ml; VPis the sample volume, in ml; M is the molar mass of ethanol (46,07 g); d is the path length of the cell, in cm (here: 1,00 cm); is the absorptivity of NADH (6,3 l

40、 mmol1 cm1at 340 nm, 6,18 l mmol1 cm1at Hg 334 nm and 3,4 l mmol1 cm1at Hg 365 nm). DIN 10762:2004-06 8 Calculate the concentration by mass of ethanol in the sample solution using equation (3): EE =516300012500000100010746553 ,(3) where is the concentration by mass of ethanol in the sample solution,

41、 in mg/l; is the absorptivity of NADH (see above); E is the differential absorbance given by equation (1). If the sample solution has been diluted during preparation, multiply the result by the dilution factor, F. Calculate the proportion by mass, w, of ethanol, in mg/kg, using equation (4): 0001=mw

42、(4) where is the concentration by mass of ethanol in the sample solution, in mg/l; m is the initial mass of the sample, in g/l. Above 10 mg/kg, report the result to three significant places. 9 Reliability of method 9.1 Specificity Any interference due to aldehydes and ketones is eliminated by the or

43、der in which the reagents are added. Methanol is not converted due to the unfavourable KMvalues2)of the enzymes used. n-propanol and n-butanol are quantitatively converted under the test conditions, but higher primary alcohols result in a sample-dependent creep reaction. Secondary, tertiary and arom

44、atic alcohols do not react and glycerol does not interfere with the test even at fairly high concentrations. Results of about 100 % are to be expected if pure ethanol is analysed. NOTE A recovery of less than 100 % does not necessarily mean incomplete conversion in the enzymatic determination, but i

45、s more likely to indicate the loss of analyte during handling, preparing the ethanol solution and pipetting the dilute ethanol solution into the test solution. 9.2 Sensitivity and limit of detection The smallest differential absorbance the method can detect is 0,005 absorbance units. For a maximum s

46、ample volume, VP, of 0,500 ml, a test volume, VT, of 3,550 ml and determination at 340 nm, this corresponds to an ethanol concentration of about 0,1 mg/l (or 0,6 mg/l of sample solution for a sample volume, VP, of 0,100 ml and a test volume, VT, of 3,15 ml). 2) The Michaelis constant, KM, is defined

47、 as the substrate concentration at which the reaction rate reaches max/2. DIN 10762:2004-06 9 The differential absorbance of 0,020, the maximum sample volume, VP, of 0,500 ml and the test volume, VT, of 3,550 ml result in a limit of detection of 0,5 mg/l. 9.3 Linearity Linearity exists from about 0,

48、3 g of ethanol per assay (0,5 mg of ethanol per litre of sample solution, with a sample volume, VP, of 0,5 ml and a test volume, VT, of 3,550 ml) to 12 g of ethanol per assay (0,12 g of ethanol per litre of sample solution, with a sample volume, VP, of 0,100 ml and a test volume, VT, of 3,150 ml). 1

49、0 Precision 10.1 General The precision data have been determined in an interlaboratory test on three honeys having different ethanol contents, performed as specified in ISO 5725-1 and ISO 5725-2. The results will be found in Annex A. 10.2 Repeatability limit (same operator, same equipment) The absolute difference between two successive results obtained under repeatability conditions will not exceed the repeatability limit, r, in more than 5 % of cases. Values of r and
