Foodstuffs - Determination of vitamin B2 by high performance liquid chromatography

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of vitamin B2 in food by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and fluorescence detection. This method has been validated in two interlaboratory studies. The first study was for the analysis of samples of milk powder and pig's liver ranging from 1,45 mg/100 g to 10,68 mg/100 g. The second study was for the analysis of samples of tube feeding solution, baby food, powdered milk, meal with fruits, yeast, cereal and chocolate powder ranging from 0,21 mg/100 g to 87,1 mg/100 g. Vitamin B2 is the mass fraction of total riboflavin including its phosphorylated derivatives.
For further information on the validation, see Clause 8 and Annex B.

Lebensmittel - Bestimmung von Vitamin B2 mit Hochleistungs-Flüssigchromatographie

Produits alimentaires - Détermination de la teneur en vitamine B2 par chromatographie liquide haute performance

La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode de dosage de la vitamine B2 présente dans les produits alimentaires par chromatographie liquide haute performance (CLHP) et par détection fluorimétrique. Cette méthode a été validée lors de deux essais interlaboratoires. Le premier essai concernait l’analyse d’échantillons de lait en poudre et de foie de porc allant de 1,45 mg/100 g à 10,68 mg/100 g. Le deuxième essai s’appliquait à l’analyse d’échantillons de solution pour alimentation entérale, d’aliment pour bébé, de lait en poudre, de substitut de repas aux fruits, de levure, de céréales, de chocolat en poudre allant de 0,21 mg/100 g à 87,1 mg/100 g. La vitamine B2 correspond à la fraction massique de riboflavine totale, y compris ses dérivés phosphorylés.

Overview

EN 14152:2014 (CEN) specifies a validated analytical method for the determination of vitamin B2 (riboflavin) in foodstuffs using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detection. The standard defines the measurement of the mass fraction of total riboflavin, including phosphorylated derivatives, and has been validated in two interlaboratory studies covering sample ranges from 0.21 mg/100 g to 87.1 mg/100 g and 1.45 mg/100 g to 10.68 mg/100 g. For validation details see Clause 8 and Annex B.

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope and analyte: Total riboflavin (vitamin B2), including phosphorylated forms (e.g., riboflavin-5′-phosphate).
  • Sample types validated: milk powder, pig’s liver, tube feeding solutions, baby food, powdered milk, fruit meals, yeast, cereals, chocolate powder.
  • Extraction & hydrolysis: Acid hydrolysis (e.g., HCl or H2SO4) at controlled temperature/time (autoclave or heating) to liberate bound riboflavin.
  • Enzymatic dephosphorylation: Use of dephosphorylating enzymes (e.g., Taka-Diastase or α‑amylase) with optimal pH/temperature/time; enzyme contribution must be accounted for and checked by spiking with riboflavin-5′-phosphate.
  • Chromatography & detection: Reversed-phase HPLC with fluorometric detection. Example conditions: Supelco® LC-18 stationary phase (5 µm, 250×4.6 mm), mobile phase methanol:phosphate buffer (35:65) with ion-pairing agents, flow 1.0 mL/min, injection 20 µL; fluorescence detection Excitation ~468 nm / Emission ~520 nm.
  • Standards & calibration: Use riboflavin standard(s); determine stock concentration by UV spectrometry at ~444 nm. External standard quantification and linearity checks required.
  • Quality & safety: Protect analyte from light (use brown glassware), use analytical-grade reagents and Grade 1 water (EN ISO 3696). Annexes A–C provide chromatogram examples, precision data and alternative HPLC systems.

Applications and users

This standard is intended for:

  • Food testing laboratories performing nutritional analysis and label compliance.
  • Manufacturers and quality control teams monitoring fortification and raw material riboflavin content.
  • Clinical nutrition and tube-feeding product developers validating vitamin content.
  • Regulatory authorities and research labs requiring a validated HPLC method for vitamin B2 measurement.

Practical uses include routine quality control, stability testing, process validation, comparison of products, and regulatory reporting.

Related standards and documentation

  • Normative reference: EN ISO 3696 (Water for analytical laboratory use).
  • EN 14152:2014 supersedes EN 14152:2003; consult Annex B for precision and Annex C for alternate HPLC systems and method adaptations.

Dissolve an amount of riboflavin standard substance (4.19.1) previously dried and stored in dark in a desiccator possibly under vacuum and/or over phosphorous pentoxide (4.13), weighed to the nearest milligram, e.g. approximately 50 mg in a defined volume, e.g. 500 ml in an appropriate solvent e.g. diluted acetic acid (4.6) using brown volumetric flasks. This solution can be stored at 4 °C in the dark for 2 months. Riboflavin is sparingly soluble. To facilitate dissolution warm with approximately 300 ml diluted acetic acid (4.6), on a steam bath with constant stirring until dissolved, cool and add diluted acetic acid (4.6) to make 500 ml. Alternatively add 5 ml of sodium hydroxide solution (4.12) to the standard substance in a 500 ml volumetric flask. Due to the instability in alkaline solutions immediately after dissolution add 1,5 ml of glacial acetic acid (4.5) and dilute to volume with diluted acetic acid (4.6), or another appropriate acid. The concentration of the freshly prepared and if necessary also stored solution should be tested (4.20.3).
