Non fatty foods - Determination of benzimidazole fungicides carbendazim, thiabendazole and benomyl (as carbendazim) - Part 2: HPLC method with gel permeation chromatography clean up

This draft European Standard specifies a high performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of the benzimidazole fungicides carbendazim and thiabendazole in fruits, vegetables and processed products.
When benomyl is present, it is completely degraded to carbendazim and is also determined as carbendazim. Thiophanate-methyl is partly decomposed and therefore not quantitatively determined.
The method has been validated for carbendazim and thiabendazole in an interlaboratory test with homogenates of apples, French beans, mushrooms, lemons and fruit based infant food.

Fettarme Lebensmittel - Bestimmung der Benzimidazol-Fungizide Carbendazim, Thiabendazol und Benomyl (als Carbendazim) - Teil 2: HPLC-Verfahren mit Reinigung durch Gelpermeationschromatographie

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein hochleistungs-flüssigchromatographisches Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Benzimidazol-Fungizide Carbendazim und Thiabendazol in Obst, Gemüse und deren Verarbeitungsprodukten fest.
Wenn Benomyl anwesend ist, wird es vollständig zu Carbendazim abgebaut und ebenfalls als Carbendazim bestimmt. Thiophanat-methyl wird teilweise zersetzt und deshalb nicht quantitativ bestimmt.
Das Verfahren ist für Carbendazim und Thiabendazol durch einen Ringversuch mit Homogenaten von Äpfeln, grünen Bohnen, Pilzen, Zitronen und Kindernahrung aus Fruchtzutaten validiert worden.

Aliments non gras - Détermination des benzimidazoles antifongiques, le carbendazime, le thiabendazole et le bénomyl en tant que carbendazime - Partie 2: Méthode CLHP avec purification par chromatographie par perméation de gel

Le présent projet de Norme européenne décrit une méthode de chromatographie en phase liquide a haute performance pour la détermination du carbendazime et du thiabendazole, benzimidazoles antifongiques, dans les fruits, les légumes et les produits transformés.
Si du bénomyl est présent, celui-ci est completement dégradé en carbendazime et dosé en tant que carbendazime. Le thiophanate-méthyle est partiellement décomposé et ne peut, par conséquent, etre déterminé quantitativement.
La présente méthode a été validée pour le carbendazime et le thiabendazole lors d'un essai interlaboratoires réalisé a l'aide de broyats de pommes, de haricots verts, de champignons, de citrons et d'aliments pour bébé a base de citrons et de fruits.

EN 14333-2:2004 (E) 4 1 Scope This document specifies a high performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of the benzimidazole fungicides carbendazim and thiabendazole in fruits, vegetables and processed products. When benomyl is present, it is completely degraded to carbendazim and is also determined as carbendazim. Thiophanate-methyl is partly decomposed and therefore not quantitatively determined. The method has been validated for carbendazim and thiabendazole in an interlaboratory test with homogenates of apples, French beans, mushrooms, lemons and fruit based infant food. 2 Principle The sample is homogenized with ethyl acetate, sodium hydroxide solution and anhydrous sodium sulfate and the homogenate is filtered. An aliquot portion of the ethyl acetate extract is cleaned up by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) on a polystyrene gel using a cyclohexane/ethyl acetate mixture for elution. In the GPC eluate, carbendazim and thiabendazole are determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on a normal phase column and with UV or UV and fluorescence detectors. 3 Reagents 3.1 General Unless otherwise specified, use reagents of recognized analytical grade, preferably for HPLC and pesticide residue analysis, and only distilled or demineralized water. 3.2 Safety aspects associated with reagents Vapours from some volatile solvents are toxic. Several of these solvents are readily absorbed through skin. Use an effective fume hood to remove vapours of these solvents as they are set free. Carbendazim and thiabendazole are toxic; avoid contact with skin and eyes. 3.3 Ethyl acetate 3.4 Cyclohexane 3.5 Sodium sulfate, anhydrous 3.6 Sodium hydroxide solution, mass concentration

Prior to use, filter the mixture through a membrane filter (4.7). SIST EN 14333-2:2005

EN 14333-2:2004 (E) 6 5 Procedure 5.1 Preparation of test sample Prepare a homogenate from the laboratory sample, for example by chopping (4.2), from which a representative test portion is taken. 5.2 Extraction 5.2.1 Commodities except lemons, limes, plums and juices From the test sample (5.1), weigh a test portion of 75 g (m) to the nearest 0,5 g into the jar of a blender (4.3). Add 200 ml (V1) of ethyl acetate (3.3) and 3,0 ml sodium hydroxide solution (3.6) and homogenize the mixture for 30 s. Add 40 g of sodium sulfate (3.5) and continue to homogenize the mixture for 2,5 min. Filter the homogenate with gentle suction through a glass fibre filter (4.8) topped with 20 g of sodium sulfate. To the filtrate, add 10 g of sodium sulfate and allow it to stand for 3 min. From the ethyl acetate solution, take an aliquot portion of 100 ml (V2) and concentrate it to approximately 1 ml in a rotary evaporator (4.4) with the water bath temperature set at 37 °C. Transfer the concentrate to a 5 ml calibrated test tube, rinsing the flask with ethyl acetate, and dilute the solution to 2,5 ml with ethyl acetate. Rinse the flask again with cyclohexane (3.4), add the rinsing to the test tube and adjust with cyclohexane to a volume of 5 ml (V3).
5.2.2 Lemons, limes, plums Proceed as described in 5.2.1, but add 6,0 ml sodium hydroxide solution (3.6) instead of 3,0 ml. 5.2.3 Juices Check which volume (x ml) of diluted sodium hydroxide solution (3.7) is required to adjust a portion of 7,5 g of the juice to approximately pH 10. Weigh a test portion of 75 g (m) to the nearest 0,5 g into the jar of a blender (4.3). Add 200 ml (V1) of ethyl acetate (3.3) and x ml of sodium hydroxide solution (3.6) and homogenize the mixture for 30 s. Proceed as described in 5.2.1. 5.3 Gel permeation chromatography 5.3.1 Packing gel permeation column Allow approximately 9 g of BioBeads S-X3 resin (4.5) to swell overnight in the GPC eluting mixture (3.8). Then pour the suspension all at once into the column. As soon as the gel bed has settled (free from air bubbles) to a level of approximately 40 cm, insert the plunger, lower it down to the bed level and screw it into place. Start the flow of GPC eluting mixture at a low rate and gradually increase it to 1 ml/min. If the gel bed sinks to a still lower level, adjust the plunger accordingly (observe manufacturer’s instructions). NOTE For alternative GPC column, see Annex B. 5.3.2 Checking elution volumes Load the sample loop with 1 ml of appropriately diluted standard solutions in cyclohexane
