12、cal laboratory use Specification and test methods ISO 7513, Instant tea in solid form Determination of moisture content (loss in mass at 103 C) 3 Principle Polyphenols are extracted with 70 % methanol from a test portion of finely ground leaf tea at 70 C. Instant teas are dissolved in hot water with
13、 10 % acetonitrile (volume fraction) added to stabilize the extract. The polyphenols in the extract are determined colorimetrically using Folin-Ciocalteu phenol reagent. The reagent contains phospho-tungstic acids as oxidants, which on reduction by readily oxidized phenolic hydroxy groups yield a bl
14、ue colour with a broad maximum absorption at 765 nm. This is due to the formation of so-called tungsten and molybdenum blues. The Folin-Ciocalteu phenol reagent reacts with a wide range of polyphenol compounds and, although the response can vary with the individual components, selection of gallic ac
15、id as a calibration standard enables useful total polyphenol data to be obtained. 4 Reagents Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade, unless otherwise specified. 4.1 Water, conforming to grade 1 of ISO 3696:1987. 4.2 Acetonitrile. 4.3 Methanol.

16、ances characteristic of green and black tea Part 1: Content of total polyphenols in tea Colorimetric method using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent 4.4 Methanol/water extraction mixture, 70 % methanol (volume fraction). Add 700 ml of the methanol (4.3) to a 1 litre one-mark volumetric flask. Dilute to the mar
17、k with water (4.1) and mix. 4.5 Folin-Ciocalteu phenol reagent, commercially available ready prepared. It is advisable to check the calibration linearity with respect to gallic acid in order to ascertain the suitability of the supplied reagent. 4.6 Dilute Folin-Ciocalteu phenol reagent, 10 % (volume
18、 fraction). Using a pipette, transfer 20 ml of Folin-Ciocalteu phenol reagent (4.5) to a 200 ml one-mark volumetric flask. Dilute to the mark with water and mix. Prepare fresh reagent solution daily. To avoid contamination of the concentrated Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, discard any unused dispensed rea
19、gent. 4.7 Sodium carbonate solution, 7,5 % (mass concentration). Weigh (37,50 0,01) g of anhydrous sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) into a 500 ml one-mark volumetric flask. Add sufficient warm water to half-fill the flask. Swirl to dissolve the sodium carbonate, cool to room temperature, dilute to the mark
20、 with water and mix. NOTE This solution will remain stable at room temperature for up to 1 month. 4.8 Gallic acid stock standard solution, corresponding to approximately 1 000 g/ml of anhydrous gallic acid. Weigh (0,110 0,001) g of gallic acid monohydrate (M = 188,14) into a 100 ml one-mark volumetr
21、ic flask. Dissolve in water, dilute to the mark and mix. Prepare a fresh standard solution daily. NOTE Gallic acid monohydrate is preferred over anhydrous, due to its greater solubility, reduced hygroscopic properties and availability of certified reagent grades, e.g. A.C.S., which is used to denote
22、 chemicals that meet specifications outlined by the American Chemical Society. If not known, the moisture content (loss in mass at 103 C) on a portion of the standard material should be determined. The concentration of the stock standard solution on a gallic acid anhydrous basis can then be calculat

As the assay is sensitive to traces of organic impurit
28、ies, extraction tubes (5.9) and graduated tubes (5.10) should all be taken through an additional cleaning procedure of washing in approx. 15 % (volume fraction) nitric acid, followed by rinsing thoroughly in water and drying in an air oven at 100 C. The use of disposable plastic tubes as an alternat
29、ive to the graduated tubes in the final colorimetic assay is recommended, as additional cleaning has not been found necessary. 6 Sampling A representative sample should have been sent to the laboratory. It should not have been damaged or changed during transport or storage. Sampling is not part of t
30、he method specified in this part of ISO 14502. A recommended sampling method is given in ISO 1839 for leaf tea, and ISO 7516 for instant tea. 7 Preparation of test samples To ensure homogeneity, grind the sample of leaf tea in accordance with ISO 1572 and store samples in well-sealed containers prot
31、ected from light. Grinding of instant tea is only required on samples of a coarse granular structure.

It is important to mix the samples thoroughly to ensure complete extraction. 8.4.2.4 Remove the extraction tube from the wate
