Introduction
Analysis of the technical framework of the standard
| Technical elements | Requirements of this standard | Internationally commonly used methods | Innovation points |
|---|---|---|---|
| Extraction solvent | Acetone/dichloromethane-methanol mixture | Pure acetone | Improve the extraction efficiency of fat-soluble components |
| Saponification conditions | React at 4-5℃ overnight | 2 hours at room temperature | Reduce isomer conversion |
| Detection limit | 2.5-10mg/kg | 5-20mg/kg | Sensitivity increased by 2-4 times |
Key technical points
High performance liquid chromatography uses a three-gradient elution system (methanol-tert-butyl methyl ether-phosphoric acid solution), which can effectively separate the three astaxanthin isomers of 13-cis, all-trans and 9-cis. In practical applications, special attention should be paid to the centrifuge speed of Antarctic krill samples, which must reach more than 8,000r/min to ensure complete extraction.
Recommendations for the implementation of the standard
- Laboratories should establish a standard verification system to ensure that the purity of all-trans-astaxanthin standards is ≥95%
- For high-content samples (>100mg/kg), it is recommended to use dichloromethane-methanol solution for step-by-step extraction
- Regularly calibrate the temperature stability of the nitrogen blowdown instrument to prevent thermal degradation of the target
Technology evolution analysis
This standard has major improvements over the 2009 version: ①Add a PSA filler purification step to eliminate phospholipid interference; ②Use a low-temperature saponification process (4-5℃) to reduce the isomer conversion rate by 40%; ③Expand the scope of application to new products such as krill oil.
