Infant formula and adult nutritionals - Determination of fructans - High performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD) after enzymatic treatment (ISO 22579:2020)

This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of inulin-type fructans (including oligofructose, and fructooligosaccharides) in infant formula and adult nutritionals containing 0,03 g/100 g to 5,0 g/100 g of fructan in the product as prepared ready for consumption.
A high performance anion exchange chromatographic method in combination with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD) is applied.

WARNUNG — Das in diesem Dokument beschriebene Verfahren verwendet ätzende (Natrium¬hydroxid, Essigsäure) und giftige (Natriumazid) Chemikalien. Es sind die Sicherheitsdatenblätter zu beachten und entsprechende zusätzliche Sicherheitsvorkehrungen für die Handhabung und Ent¬sorgung zu treffen.
Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung von Fructanen des Inulintyps (einschließlich Oligo-fruktose, Fruktooligosaccharide) in Säuglingsnahrung und Nahrungsergänzungsmitteln für Erwachsene (sowohl Pulver als auch Flüssigkeit) fest, die 0,03 g/100 g bis 5,0 g/100 g Fructane in dem verzehrfertigen Enderzeugnis enthalten.
Das Verfahren wurde in einer Multi-Laborstudie [1] mit rekonstituiertem Standardreferenzmaterial (SRM) für Säuglingsnahrung/Nahrungsergänzungsmittel für Erwachsene mit einem Gehalt von 0,204 g/100 g, Nahrungsergänzungsmittel für Erwachsene als Fertignahrung (RTF, en: ready-to-feed) mit Gehalten von 1,28 g/100 g und 2,67 g/100 g, Säuglingsnahrung als Fertignahrung mit einem Gehalt von 0,300 g/100 g, rekonstituierte Folgenahrung im Bereich von 0,209 g/100 g bis 0,275 g/100 g, rekonstituierte Säuglingsnahrung im Bereich von 0,030 8 g/100 g bis 0,264 g/100 g validiert. Während der Validierungs-studie im Einzellabor [2] wurden Versuche zur Wiederfindungsrate bei Aufstockung von bis zu 5 g/100 g in rekonstituierten Säuglingsnahrungspulvern (auf Milchbasis, auf teilweise hydrolysierter Milchbasis und Sojabasis), Nahrungsergänzungsmitteln für Erwachsene als Fertignahrung und rekonstituierten pulver-förmigen Nahrungsergänzungsmitteln für Erwachsene durchgeführt.

in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all
matters of electrotechnical standardization.

governments/food control authorities.
ISO and IDF collaborate closely on all matters of standardization relating to methods of analysis
and sampling for milk and milk products. Since 2001, ISO and IDF jointly publish their International
Standards using the logos and reference numbers of both organizations.

Infant formula and adult nutritionals — Determination
of fructans — High performance anion exchange
chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection
(HPAEC-PAD) after enzymatic treatment
WARNING — The method described in this document employs corrosive (sodium hydroxide,
acetic acid) and toxic (sodium azide) chemicals. Refer to the materials safety data sheets and
take appropriate additional safety precautions for handling and waste disposal.
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of inulin-type fructans (including oligofructose,
fructooligosaccharides) in infant formula and adult nutritionals (both powder and liquid) containing
0,03 g/100 g to 5,0 g/100 g of fructans in the product as prepared ready for consumption.
[1]
The method has been validated in a multi laboratory study with reconstituted standard reference
material (SRM), infant/adult nutritional formula at a level of 0,204 g/100 g, adult nutritionals ready-
to-feed (RTF) at levels of 1,28 g/100 g and 2,67 g/100 g, infant formula RTF at a level of 0,300 g/100 g,
reconstituted follow-up formula at levels of 0,209 g/100 g to 0,275 g/100 g, reconstituted infant formula
[2]
at levels from 0,030 8 g/100 g to 0,264 g/100 g. During the single laboratory validation study , spike-
recovery experiments were performed up to 5 g/100 g in reconstituted infant formula powders (milk-
based, partially hydrolysed milk-based and soy-based), adult nutritional RTF and reconstituted adult
nutritional powders.

4 Principle
Samples are reconstituted in water (if required) and further diluted until the concentration of fructans
in solution is such that after hydrolysis the fructose and glucose concentration will be within the
range covered by the standard curve. The diluted sample is treated with a mixture of a highly specific
sucrase and α-glucanases to hydrolyse sucrose and α-glucooligosaccharides to their constituent
monosaccharides. The sample is passed through a solid phase extraction (SPE) column packed with
graphitized carbon. Salts and monosaccharides pass through and are washed away, while the fructans
are retained. Fructans are released from the column using an acetonitrile solution. The released
fructans are hydrolysed with a fructanase mixture, and the released glucose and fructose are analysed
by high performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-
PAD). The fructan content is calculated by summing the glucose and 0,9 times the fructose contents
measured. In some matrices, a blank correction may be necessary and can be applied.

pre-prepared enzyme mixture from Megazyme (5.1.17) was used. When enzymes from
another source are used, the buffer composition (type, concentration and pH) may need to be

mixture employed will completely hydrolyse any sucrose in the product without hydrolysing
the fructan. This can be checked by performing an analysis with sucrose as an analyte and

and more than 90 % recovery should be achieved when a fructan of known purity is analysed
(recommended to check using both long-chain inulin and short-chain fructooligosaccharides).

Infant formula and adult nutritionals — Determination
of fructans — High performance anion exchange
chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection
(HPAEC-PAD) after enzymatic treatment
WARNING — The method described in this document employs corrosive (sodium hydroxide,
acetic acid) and toxic (sodium azide) chemicals. Refer to the materials safety data sheets and
take appropriate additional safety precautions for handling and waste disposal.
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of inulin-type fructans (including oligofructose,
fructooligosaccharides) in infant formula and adult nutritionals (both powder and liquid) containing
0,03 g/100 g to 5,0 g/100 g of fructans in the product as prepared ready for consumption.
[1]
The method has been validated in a multi laboratory study with reconstituted Standard Reference
Material (SRM) infant/adult nutritional formula at a level of 0,204 g/100 g, adult nutritionals Ready-
To-Feed (RTF) at levels of 1,28 g/100 g and 2,67 g/100 g, infant formula RTF at a level of 0,300 g/100 g,
reconstituted follow-up-formula at levels of 0,209 g/100 g to 0,275 g/100 g, reconstituted infant formula
[2]
at levels from 0,0308 g/100 g to 0,264 g/100 g. During the single laboratory validation study, spike-
recovery experiments have been performed up to 5 g/100 g in reconstituted infant formula powders
(milk based, partially hydrolysed milk based and soy based), adult nutritional RTF and reconstituted
adult nutritional powders.

4 Principle
Samples are reconstituted in water (if required) and further diluted until the concentration of fructans
in solution is such that after hydrolysis the fructose and glucose concentration will be within the
range covered by the standard curve. The diluted sample is treated with a mixture of a highly specific
sucrase and α-glucanases to hydrolyse sucrose and α-glucooligosaccharides to their constituent
monosaccharides. The sample is passed through a solid phase extraction (SPE) column packed with
graphitized carbon. Salts and monosaccharides pass through and are washed away, while the fructans
are retained. Fructans are released from the column using an acetonitrile solution. The released
fructans are hydrolysed with a fructanase mixture, and the released glucose and fructose are analysed
by high performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-
PAD). The fructan content is calculated by summing the glucose and 0,9 times the fructose contents
measured. In some matrices, a blank correction may be necessary and can be applied.
