DIN EN 13804:2013-06 EN 13804:2013 (E) 4 Introduction The Working Group, CEN/TC 275/WG 10 “Elements and their chemical species“, selects and elaborates methods of analysis of e

26、lements and their chemical species in foodstuffs. There are many methods of analysis for the determination of elements in foodstuffs which have been validated and published; the analyst is often required to make a choice between several established methods all of which purport to be applicable to th

27、e same analyte/matrix combination. The Working Group decided to establish specific criteria to guide the analyst in the selection between several methods of analysis. As a general rule, analysts should give preference to methods of analysis which comply with the provisions given in Clauses 1 and 2 o

28、f the annex to 1, with the Decision in 2 and with the General Principles for Methods of Analysis of the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC), as defined in the CAC Procedural Manual and further developed in the ”criteria approach“ to methods of analysis developed by the Codex Committee of Methods of

29、Analysis and Sampling (CCMAS). The performance criteria laid down in this European Standard are based on published data or collected from official reports on European interlaboratory studies. When such performance characteristics are not available, the criteria were established based on the experien

30、ce and opinions of the experts of CEN/TC 275/WG 10. The criteria included in this European Standard have also been used as guidance in the Working Group 10 for the selection of specific methods of analysis of trace elements to be standardised. In addition, the Working Group 10 also decided to provid

31、e some general information on sample handling and sample preparation, laboratory organisation and equipment. This document does not deal with sampling issues. It provides an overview of the processes involved from receipt of the laboratory sample to the end result. General sample preparation procedu

32、res are specified, as well as examples for some foodstuffs. DIN EN 13804:2013-06 EN 13804:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies performance criteria for the selection of methods of analysis of elements and their chemical species in foodstuffs and contains performance requirements and c

33、haracteristics, guidelines for laboratory set-up, sample preparation and test reports. 2 Sample preparation 2.1 General Food samples are commonly treated in the same way as is done before consumption (washed, peeled, removal of non-edible parts). Apart from the treatments that are just mentioned and

34、 that are clarified in some more detail in 2.4.1 and 2.4.2, samples should not undergo further processing (i.e. samples should not be boiled, steamed, fried, heated or the like). Extra treatments, like drying, may be performed to prevent the sample from decaying. In particular, for speciation analys

35、es, the potential loss or change of analytes shall be considered carefully though. Finally the sample needs to be homogenised (for example by grinding) to obtain a homogenous test portion. Contamination and uncontrolled loss of liquid, e.g. during operations such as grinding and cutting, shall be av

36、oided to the greatest extent possible. 2.2 Reagents, apparatus and equipment No reagents and chemicals other than water shall be used in sample preparation. Water with the quality of drinking water may be used for washing some samples, e.g. vegetables. However, depending on the purpose of the analys

37、is and the element to be determined, it may be necessary to use purified water (see 3.1). Apparatuses and equipment should preferably be designated for trace element analysis. Typical kitchen utensils (e.g. plastic dishes, plastic salad spinner, and coffee grinder) may also be used for sample prepar

38、ation steps as long as they do not affect both the sample and the elements to be determined. Any equipment coming into direct contact with the sample shall, if necessary, be cleaned with detergent and hot water. Equipment cleaned with detergent, and containers for storage of homogenised samples, sho

39、uld be treated with diluted nitric acid (approximately 6 % by volume) followed by purified water, if appropriate. Contamination problems may arise when stainless steel or iron equipment is used for analysis of elements such as chromium, molybdenum, nickel and iron. Special apparatus shall be used in

40、 such cases, e.g. titanium or ceramic knives, agate mortar or ball mill for size reduction and homogenisation. Ceramic materials show a high degree of mechanical and chemical stability, but they might have varying compositions (e.g. Al-oxides, Zr-oxides). Homogenisers shall be chosen carefully as no

41、t to cause losses of volatile elements (e.g. by heating up the sample during mixing) or to cause contamination of the elements to be determined or modification of species (e.g. due to warm-up by friction) in the case of speciation analyses. 2.3 Storage 2.3.1 General Both laboratory samples and test

42、samples shall be stored in such a way that the composition and sample mass does not change as a result of, for instance, drying out, evaporative loss, spoilage or decay. The test sample should be prepared as quickly as possible after arrival of the laboratory sample. Test samples may be stored in a

43、refrigerator or frozen depending on the nature of the material and the expected storage time. Suitable storage material may be made of glass, plastic containers closed with a screw cap or plastic bags. Dry products may be stored at room temperature. DIN EN 13804:2013-06 EN 13804:2013 (E) 6 2.3.2 Sto

44、rage for speciation purposes Some considerations shall be kept in mind when storing samples for speciation purposes. Parameters with a strong influence in speciation analysis are (see Table 1): a) Temperature: Storage temperature shall be low enough to prevent microbial activity resulting in reactio

45、ns, e.g. methylation and biodegradation (see Table 1). b) pH: The pH of the media may strongly affect the stability of the inorganic species. Samples intended for species analysis shall not be changed in their acidity for preservation purposes. c) Light: Light may cause instability of organometallic

46、 compounds by photodegrading. When analysing organometallic compounds storage shall be done in dark or in opaque containers. d) Storage time: Generally, storage should be kept as short as possible. Table 1 Examples of storage conditions for samples intended for speciation purposes Element (species)

47、Storage conditions Hg (Hg(II), methylmercury) Keep samples at 4 C or lower in darkness. Dilution shall be done only immediately before the analysis. Sn (butylated organotin compounds) PVC containers shall not be used to avoid contamination by organotin compounds. Store samples in borosilicate glass

48、bottles in the dark, at least at 4 C or lower. Cr (Cr (III) and Cr (VI) Only borosilicate or quartz glass should be used for handling and storage. Some glassware may cause contamination with chromium. Keep samples at 4 C or lower. The pH has different effect on the stability of Cr (III) and Cr (VI). Se (Se (IV), Se (VI) and methylated compounds) Avoid the use of poly tetra fluoro ethylene containers 3. Keep at -20 C or lower to avoid any change of the inorganic species. Acid media (pH 1,5 to 2) avoid oxidation of Se (IV) to
