Q BSI 08-2000 Page 3 EN 13191-1:2000 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a gas chromatographic (GC) method for the determination of bromide residues (including some organic bromine present) as inorganic bromide in non-fatty foods. Generally, the maximum residue levels are expre
8、ssed in terms of bromide ion from all sources but not including covalently bound bromine. The method is applicable to beets, carrots, chicory, endives, cereal grains, lettuce, potatoes, spinach, strawberries and tomato. It has been validated in an interlaboratory test on lettuce i. 2 Normative refer

11、inciple An aqueous ethanolic extract of the test portion is evaporated to dryness and the residue is ashed in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The ash is solubilized with sulfuric acid and the solution is treated with ethylene oxide in di-isopropyl ether. Inorganic bromide is converted to 2-bromoet
12、hanol, which is analyzed by gas chromatography with electron-capture detection 2. 4 Reagents 4.1 General and safety aspects Unless otherwise specified, use reagents of recognized analytical grade, preferably for pesticide residue analysis, and water of grade 2 according to EN IS0 3696. Take every pr
13、ecaution to avoid possible contamination of water, solvents, inorganic salts, etc. by plastics and rubber materials. Use only glass containers for storage and handling of all water and reagents. 4.2 4.3 4.4 4.5 4.6 4.7 Ethanol, (p(C2H50H) = 96 % (VAI). Sodium hydroxide solution, c(Na0H) = 0,2 mol/l.
14、 Sulfuric acid, c(HZS04) = 0,6 mol/l. Acetone. Di-isopropyl ether, peroxide-free. Before use, check each newly opened bottle by injecting the same volume, e.g. 51.11, into the gas chromatograph as used in 6.3. If interfering peaks are observed, distill over potassium hydroxide. WARNING: Di-isopropyl
15、 ether is extremely flammable. Store protected from light. Unstable peroxides can form upon longer standing or exposure to sunlight in bottles and can result in explosion risk. Work always in a well-ventilated fume hood. Ethylene oxide, rp(C2H40) of at least 993 % volume fraction, in pressurized can

19、paratus and, in particular, the following: 5.1 Chopper. 5.2 Homogenizer or high speed blender, fitted with glass jar. 5.3 Centrifuge, provided with glass tubes of capacity I00 ml, and capable of producing a centrifugal acceleration of at least 7 O00 g at the base of the centrifuge tubes. 5.4 Nickel
20、crucibles, e.g. 5,5 cm high, inner diameter 6 cm. 5.5 Water bath, capable of being maintained at 1 O0 OC. 5.6 Laboratory oven, capable of being maintained at approximately 80 OC, with ventilation. 5.7 Muffle furnace, capable of being maintained at approximately 500 OC. 5.8 Conical flask, 250 ml, wit
21、h ground joint. 5.9 Test tubes, 10 ml and 25 ml, with ground joint. 5.10 Gas chromatograph, equipped with an electron-capture detector. 6 Procedure 6.1 Ashing Chop the test sample using the chopper (5.1), avoiding loss of juice. Transfer a test portion of 50 g into the blender cup (5.2) and add 50 m
22、l of water and 50 ml of ethanol (4.2). Blend for 2 min to 3 min and centrifuge at 7 O00 g. Calculate the total volume of supernatant taking into account the water content of the sample. Transfer an aliquot of supernatant corresponding to 15 g of the test portion into a nickel crucible (5.4) and add
23、5 ml of sodium hydroxide solution (4.3). Place the nickel crucible (without lid) on a boiling water bath (5.5) until the liquid is evaporated. Place the nickle crucible first overnight in a well-ventilated oven (5.6) at approximately 80 OC, and then in a muffle furnace (5.7) for 15 min at 500 OC. WA
24、RNING: Good ventilation in the oven is necessary, as otherwise explosions could occur due to the formation of flammable mixtures of ethanol and air. During the ashing procedure, air shall be allowed to come in contact with the evaporated residue, as otherwise mineralization will be incomplete. The c
25、olour of the ash should be grey to dark-grey. NOTE 1 : Sometimes, e.g. in the case of beet samples, the evaporated residue has been found to ignite in the furnace due to inadequate heat transfer. Ignition leads to appreciable losses of bromide. In this case, a smaller test portion should be used. NO
26、TE 2: Reduction of the supernatant corresponding to approximately I g of the test portion is necessary when samples with high content of organic matter are analyzed, because otherwise ashing will be incomplete. 6.2 Derivatization Allow the ash to cool and add 5 ml of sulfuric acid (4.4). Mix the ash
27、 well with the liquid and transfer the content of the crucible to a conical flask (5.8), using 20 ml of acetone (4.5) for rinsing. Add 5 ml of ethylene oxide solution (4.8). Stopper the flask, mix the contents by shaking and allow to stand for 1 h at room temperature. Q BSI 08-2000 STD-BSI BS EN L3L
28、SL-L-ENGL 2000 Lb24669 08b2973 878 Page 5 EN 131 91 -1 12000 Transfer approximately IO ml of the upper organic phase to a 25 ml test tube (5.9) and add 2 g of ammonium sulfate (4.9). Stopper the tube and shake vigorously for 2 min, Allow to settle and transfer approximately 5 ml of the supernatant t
29、o a 10 ml test tube. Add 1 g of sodium sulfate (4.10), stopper the tube, shake well and allow to stand for 30 min at room temperature (sample test solution). 6.3 Gas chromatography Inject equal volumes (B) of the sample test solution derived from 6.2 and of dilutions of 2-bromoethanol standard solut
30、ion (4.11) into the gas chromatograph. Make sure that the gas chromatographic conditions (column length, stationary phase type, injector, detector and column temperatures, gas flow rates, etc.) are such that the separation of 2-bromoethanol from possible interfering peaks originating from the sample
31、s is as complete as possible. Typical gas chromatographic conditions are given in annex A. NOTE 1: Due to their high separation efficiency, capillary columns are preferably used. NOTE 2: 2-chloroethanol is formed from chloride ions naturally occurring in the sample material. Its peak, however, has a
32、 shorter retention time and does not interfere with the determination. Test for interferences and recoveries 6.4 Prepare reagent blanks and carry out spiked recovery tests at levels appropriate to the maximum residue level. The chromatogram of the reagent blank should not show a peak at the retentio
33、n time of 2-bromoethanol. NOTE: Occasionally, a tailing peak with a longer retention time appears which is due to ethylene glycol and does not interfere with the determination. 7 Evaluation of results Measure the peak height (or peak area) obtained from the sample test solution and compare it with t
34、he peak heights (or peak areas) obtained for appropriate dilutions of the 2-bromoethanol standard solution (4.11). Based on this quotient, calculate the mass (A) of 2-bromoethanol, in nanograms, present in the injected sample test solution. Calculate the mass fraction w of bromide, in milligrams per
35、 kilogram of sample, using equation (I): Ax 25 x 0,639 Bx15 W= where: A is the mass of 2-bromoethanol in the injected volume of the sample test solution, in nanograms; B is the injection volume, in microlitres; 0,639 is the factor for conversion of 2-bromoethanol to bromide; 25 is the volume of the
36、organic solvents added in 6.2 in millilitres (20 ml of acetone and 5 ml of ethylene oxide solution); 15 is the mass of the aliquot of the test portion ashed in the nickel crucible, in grams. If the results indicate that the amount of residue approaches or exceeds the maximum residue level, examine a
37、t least two further test portions. 8 Confirmatory tests The bromide content can be confirmed with the derivatization method described in EN 13191-2:2000 3 using propylenoxide as reagent. O BSI 08-2000 Page 6 EN 13191-1:2000 9 Precision 9.1 General Details of the interlaboratory test of the precision
38、 of the method according to IS0 57251986 4 are summarized in annex B. The values derived from the interlaboratory test may not be applicable to analyte concentration ranges and matrices other than given in annex B. 9.2 Repeatability The absolute difference between two single test results found on id
39、entical test material by one operator using the same apparatus within the shortest feasible time interval will exceed the repeatability limit r in not more than 5 % of the cases. The values are: lettuce from untreated soil X = 13,3 mg/kg r= 3,6 mg/kg - lettuce from treated soil x = 209 mg/kg r= 35,O
40、 mg/kg 9.3 Reproducibility The absolute difference between two single test results on identical test material reported by two laboratories will exceed the reproducibility limit R in not more than 5 % of the cases. The values are: lettuce from untreated soil E = 13,3 mg/kg R= 6,9mg/kg - lettuce from
41、treated soil x = 209 mg/kg R= 75,O mg/kg 10 Test report The test report shall contain at least the following information: - all information necessary for the identification of the sample; - a reference to this European Standard or to the method used; -the results and the units in which the results h
