Foodstuffs - Determination of isomalt, lactitol, maltitol, mannitol, sorbitol and xylitol in foodstuffs
This European Standard specifies an HPLC-method for the determination of isomalt and other polyols such as lactitol, maltitol, mannitol, sorbitol and xylitol in foodstuffs. Chemically isomalt is described as a mixture of 6-O-a-D-glucopyranosyl-D-sorbitol (1,6-GPS) and 1-O-a-D-glucopyranosyl-D-mannitol (1,1-GPM).
The method has been validated in a collaborative study for isomalt (sum of GPS and GPM) on cookies, chewing gum, chocolate and on hard candies. Validation data for GPS and GPM are given in Clause 8, Annex A, Table A.1 and A.2
The determination of the other sugar alcohols has been (also) validated in a further collaborative study using the same method. The samples were pudding (lactitol, mannitol, xylitol), cookies (lactitol, maltitol, mannitol, sorbitol and xylitol), hard candies (lactitol, mannitol, xylitol, sorbitol) and chewing gum (maltitol, mannitol, sorbitol). Validation data are given in Clause 8 and Annex A, Tables A.3 to A.7.
Lebensmittel - Bestimmung von Isomalt, Lactit, Maltit, Mannit, Sorbit und Xylit in Lebensmitteln
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein hochleistungsflüssigkeitschromatographisches (HPLC) Verfahren für die Bestimmung von Isomalt und anderen Polyolen wie Lactit, Maltit, Mannit, Sorbit und Xylit in Lebensmitteln fest. Chemisch wird Isomalt als eine Mischung von 6-O-a-D-Gucopyranosyl-D-sorbit (1,6-GPS) und 1-O-a-D-Glucopyranosyl-D-mannit (1,1-GPM) beschrieben.
Das Verfahren wurde in einem Ringversuch mit Isomalt (Summe aus GPS und GPM) in Keksen, Kaugummi, Schokolade und Hartkaramellen validiert. Die Ringversuchsdaten für GPS und GPM sind im Abschnitt 8 und Anhang A, Tabelle A.1 und A.2 angegeben.
Die Bestimmung der anderen Zuckeralkohole wurde auch in einem weiteren Ringversuch mit demselben Verfahren geprüft. Die Proben waren Pudding (Lactit, Mannit und Xylit), Kekse (Lactit, Maltit, Mannit, Sorbit und Xylit), Hartkaramellen (Lactit, Mannit, Xylit und Sorbit), und Kaugummi (Maltit, Mannit und Sorbit). Die Ringversuchsdaten sind im Abschnitt 8 und im Anhang A, Tabellen A.3 bis A.7 angegeben.

Example: molar mass of GPS = 344,32 g/mol, GPM dihydrate = 380,32 g/mol. The exact water contents of the standard substances are determined by Karl-Fischer titration. Alternative to the calibration with pure substances, an isomalt reference sample with exactly known mass concentrations of GPM and GPS can be used.
4.2.3 1-O-.-D-Glucopyranosyl-D-mannitol (1,1-GPM)1), crystallizes with 2 mole of water (water content approximately 10 %). 4.2.4 Lactitol, crystallizes with 1 mole of water (water content approximately 5 %). 4.2.5 Maltitol 4.2.6 Mannitol 4.2.7 Sorbitol 4.2.8 Xylitol 4.3 Standard solutions Dissolve appropriate amounts of polyol standard substances (4.2.2 to 4.2.8) in water and dilute this solution again with water to obtain standard solutions with a total mass concentration of approximately 2 g/100 ml for the sum of all components. This solution may be stored for 6 weeks in a refrigerator set at +4 °C. Alternatively it is possible to store the standard solution deep frozen (-18 °C) for up to 1 year. 4.4 Carrez solution I, modified Dissolve 53,45 g of potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) (K4[Fe(CN)6] · 3 H2O) in water, mix well and dilute to 500 ml with water. Store in a brown bottle and replace it regularly. 4.5 Carrez solution II, modified Dissolve 148,75 g of zinc nitrate (Zn(NO3)2 · 6 H2O) in water, mix well and dilute to 500 ml with water. Store in a brown bottle and replace it regularly. 5 Apparatus 5.1 General Usual laboratory apparatus and, in particular, the following: 5.2 Membrane filter, for filtering the sample test solution, with pore size of e.g. 0,45 µm. NOTE Filtering of the mobile phase as well as of the sample solution through a membrane filter prior to use or injection is supposed to increase longevity of the columns.
1) For the availability of the standard substance, contact your National Standardization Institute.
Treat turbid solutions which can occur when preparing e.g. cakes and pastries with modified Carrez solutions.
NOTE Although it has not been tested in the inter-laboratory study, it is recommended to de-ionize sample test solutions, if treated with Carrez solutions in order to protect the separation column. Ions introduced by these reagents may be eliminated by means of appropriate ion exchange resins (e.g. de-ashing systems, cartridges) prior to the injection on the analytical column. 6.2 Preparation of the sample test solution 6.2.1 Soluble samples (e.g. hard candies, compressed products) Weigh in 2 g of the homogenized sample in a 100 ml volumetric flask and dissolve with water, mix and dilute to the mark. Filter turbid solutions through a membrane filter (5.2) or clarify with modified Carrez solutions (4.4) (4.5). 6.2.2 Incompletely soluble samples (e.g. pastries, chewing gum, chocolate) Weigh in 5 g to 10 g of the homogenized sample in a 100 ml volumetric flask and mix with 50 ml of water, stir for 30 min at 40 °C to 60 °C with a magnetic stirrer and clarify with modified Carrez solutions. Let the flask stand to reach room temperature and dilute to the mark with water. When the precipitate has settled, filter the supernatant aqueous phase through a membrane filter (5.2). Fat containing sample solutions may sometimes need to be filtered a second time through a membrane filter of smaller pore size.
6.3.1 HPLC conditions The separation and the quantification have proven to be satisfactory if following experimental conditions are followed: Mobile phase: Water Flow rate: 0,5 ml /min
Injection volume: 20 µl Column temperature 60 °C to 80 °C 6.3.2 Identification Inject the same appropriate volumes, e.g. 20 µl of the standard test solution (4.3) as well as of the sample test solution (6.2) into the HPLC-system.
Identify the sugar alcohols by comparison of the retention time of the peak in the chromatograms obtained with the sample test solution and with the standard solution. Peak identification can also be performed by adding small amounts of the appropriate standard solutions to the sample test solution. 6.3.3 Determination
To carry out the determination by external calibration, integrate the peak areas of the sample and compare the results with the corresponding values for the standard substance or use a calibration graph. Check the linearity of the calibration graph. Note that e.g. peaks of GPM and fructose (Pb++-column), GPS and maltitol (Ca++-column), maltitol and lactitol or xylitol and sorbitol (Ca++-column) may overlap under certain circumstances (see chromatograms in Annex C). In these cases the chromatographic conditions should be optimized. Chromatographic resolution is mainly influenced by the type of counter-ion Pb++
to Ca ++
and the temperature of the column. 7 Calculation
Calculate the mass concentration, , of each polyol as water free substance in g/100 g or the mass fraction w, in g/100 ml of the sample using equation (1): w or100022111⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅=mVAmVAρ (1) where A1 is the peak area for the polyol concerned obtained with the sample test solution (6.2), in units of area; A2

Report the result with 1 decimal place.
