An on-line coupled capillary isotachophoresis-capillary zone electrophoresis (cITP-CZE) method for the determination of the fumaric acid content in apple juice is presented. A clear separation of fumaric acid in real samples is achieved within 20 min. The leading, terminating and background electrolyte of the employed system consist of 10 mM HCl+beta-alanine+5 mM beta-cyclodextrin+0.05% hydroxypropylmethylcelullose (HPMC), pH 3, 10 mM citric acid and 20 mM citric acid+beta-alanine+5 mM beta-cyclodextrin+0.1% HPMC, pH 3.3, respectively. The linearity, recovery, repeatability and detection limit of the developed method are 25-1000 ng/ml, 1.07%, 95.4+/-3.5 (+/-s)% and 10 ng/ml, respectively. Low laboriousness (no sample pretreatment), sufficient sensitivity and low running cost are the important attributes of the cITP-CZE method which was successfully applied to analyses of real samples of apple juices.
A simple and rapid analytical method of five phenolic acids, gallic, chlorogenic, caffeic, ellagic and ferulic acid, which are naturally occurring bioactives, were determined in fruit juices by isocratic LC using photodiode array UV detection. The sample was pre-treated by solid-phase extraction (a combination of Sep-Pak Plus tC18 and Bond Elut PSA).
Patulin is a mycotoxin produced by several fungal species of the genera Penicillium and Aspergillus, but principally by Penicillium expansum on fruit such as apples. The occurrence of patulin as a natural contaminant of apple juice is a worldwide problem and international recommendations and regulations have been made for maximum levels permitted in consumer products. This paper reviews currently available analytical methods for its determination in fruit and fruit juices. Of these, HPLC with ultraviolet or, preferably, photodiode array detection is most widely used, although GC and TLC methods have also been described.
