Foodstuffs - Determination of niacin by HPLC
This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of the mass fraction of niacin in foodstuffs by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) by three different ways of hydrolysis, acid hydrolysis (A), enzymatic hydrolysis (B) or acid/alkaline hydrolysis (C). The method has been validated in interlaboratory tests on fortified and non-fortified samples such as breakfast cereal powder, chocolate cereals, cooked ham, green peas, lyophilized green peas with ham, lyophilized soup, nutritive orange juice, milk powder and wheat flour, at levels from 0,5 mg/100 g to 24 mg/100 g. For further information on the validation data, see Annex B. A and B give similar results for niacin. In options A and B niacin is calculated as the sum of nicotinamide and nicotinic acid, and expressed as nicotinic acid . Option C gives higher results than A and B for niacin with non-supplemented cereals, but similar results for other products. In option C, niacin is calculated and expressed as nicotinic acid after transformation of nicotinamide into nicotinic acid. Option A is faster and cheaper than B and C. Option B is used if an exact quantification of nicotinamide and nicotinic acid is needed. This cannot be done with option A, because there is a slight transformation of nicotinamide into nicotinic acid during the acid hydrolysis. Option C quantifies total niacin. The alkaline hydrolysis is able to liberate other forms giving higher results for niacin, which in some foods such as maize and cereals are not normally biologically available. Information on a comparison between the three different ways of hydrolysis is given in Annex C.
Lebensmittel - Bestimmung von Niacin mit HPLC
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren für die Bestimmung des Massenanteils an Niacin in Lebensmitteln
mit Hochleistungsflüssigchromatographie (HPLC) nach drei verschiedenen Hydrolysemöglichkeiten fest.
Säurehydrolyse (A), enzymatische Hydrolyse (B) oder saure/alkalische Hydrolyse (C).
Das Verfahren wurde in einem Ringversuch an angereicherten und nicht angereicherten Proben wie
pulverisierten Frühstückscerealien, Frühstückscerealien mit Schokolade, Kochschinken, grünen Erbsen,
grünen Erbsen mit Schinken (lyophilisiert), Suppe (lyophilisiert), an angereichertem Orangensaft, Milchpulver
und Weizenmehl validiert, die 0,5 mg/100 g bis 24 mg/100 g an Niacin enthielten. Weitere Informationen,
siehe Anhang B.
A und B ergeben ähnliche Ergebnisse für Niacin. Bei den Optionen A und B wird Niacin als die Summe von
Nicotinamid und Nicotinsäure berechnet und als Nicotinsäure angegeben [1]. Option C ergibt bei Niacin in
nicht angereicherten Cerealien höhere Ergebnisse als A und B, aber bei anderen Lebensmitteln ähnliche
Ergebnisse. Bei der Option C wird Nicotinamid in Nicotinsäure umgewandelt und das Niacin als Nicotinsäure
berechnet und ausgedrückt [2].
Option A ist schneller und preiswerter als B und C.
Option B wird verwendet, wenn eine genaue Quantifikation von Nicotinamid und Nicotinsäure erforderlich ist.
Hierfür ist die Option A nicht geeignet, da während der Säurehydrolyse Nicotinamid in geringem Maße in
Nicotinsäure umgewandelt wird.
Bei der Option C wird der Gesamtgehalt an Niacin bestimmt. Die alkalische Hydrolyse kann andere Derivate
freisetzen, was zu höheren Befunden von Niacin führt, was in einigen Lebensmitteln wie Mais oder Getreiden
üblicherweise nicht biologisch aktiv ist, siehe [3], [4] und [5].
Ein Vergleich der drei verschiedenen Hydrolysewege ist in Anhang C wiedergegeben.
Produits alimentaires - Dosage de la niacine par CLHP
La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode de dosage de la fraction massique de niacine dans les
produits alimentaires par chromatographie liquide à haute performance (CLHP) suivant trois types différents
d'hydrolyse : l'hydrolyse acide (A), l'hydrolyse enzymatique (B) ou l'hydrolyse acide/alcaline (C).
La méthode a été validée par des essais interlaboratoires sur des échantillons enrichis et non enrichis tels
que poudre de céréales pour petit déjeuner, céréales au chocolat, jambon cuit, petits pois, petits pois au
jambon lyophilisés, soupe lyophilisée, jus d'orange, lait en poudre et farine de blé, à des concentrations allant
de 0,5 mg/100 g à 24 mg/100 g. Pour de plus amples informations sur les données de validation, voir
l'Annexe B.
A et B donnent des résultats similaires pour la niacine. Dans les options A et B, la teneur en niacine est
calculée en tant que somme du nicotinamide et de l'acide nicotinique et elle est exprimée sous forme d'acide
nicotinique [1]. L'option C donne des résultats plus élevés que A et B pour la niacine avec des céréales sans
ajout de vitamines, mais elle fournit des résultats similaires pour les autres produits. Dans l'option C, la teneur
en niacine est calculée et exprimée sous forme d'acide nicotinique après transformation du nicotinamide en
acide nicotinique [2].
L'option A est plus rapide et moins onéreuse que B et C.
On utilise l'option B si l'on a besoin d'une quantification exacte du nicotinamide et de l'acide nicotinique. Cela
n'est pas réalisable avec l'option A car une petite partie du nicotinamide est transformée en acide nicotinique
durant l'hydrolyse acide.
L'option C donne une quantification de la niacine totale. L'hydrolyse alcaline peut libérer d'autres formes
donnant des résultats plus élevés pour la niacine, qui ne sont pas normalement disponibles biologiquement
dans certains aliments à base de maïs ou de céréales, voir [3], [4] et [5].

For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 3696:1995, Water for analytical laboratory use – Specification and test methods (ISO 3696:1987) 3 Principle Niacin vitamers are extracted from food by an acid (option A), an enzymatic (option B) or an acid/alkaline (option C) treatment and quantified by HPLC with a fluorimetric detection after a post-column derivatization with UV irradiation, see [1] and [2]. For option A and option B, niacin is determined as the sum of nicotinamide and nicotinic acid. Niacin is expressed as nicotinic acid after correction of the molecular weights. For option C, niacin is determined and expressed as nicotinic acid. The alkaline treatment transforms all nicotinamide into nicotinic acid. 4 Reagents 4.1 General During the analysis, unless otherwise stated, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and water of at least grade 1 according to EN ISO 3696:1995.
