The determination of n-nitrosoproline in cured meatsIvey, Francis James 20 February 1974 (has links)
A method is described for the determination of N-nitrosoproline
(NOPRO) in cured meat products. NOPRO was extracted with ethyl
acetate from a slurry of cured meat and water after the addition of
ammonium sulfamate and acid. This nitrosamino acid was converted
to the methyl ester and after further purification, it was quantitated
and confirmed by gas liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy.
Recoveries of 10 μg from spiked samples averaged about 70%.
A capillary column was used to confirm the presence of low
levels of MeNOPRO in the extracts. An oscilloscope, utilizing horizontal
sweep magnification of the mass spectrometer output, was used
to detect the elution of MeNOPRO from the column by monitoring the
m/e 30 ion. The presence of 5 nanograms per injection of concentrated
cured meat extract could be confirmed.
NOPRO was detected in several commercial meat products. Five of six bacon samples analyzed were found to contain NOPRO at
levels ranging from 13-46 ppb. A precooked ham slice and a sample
of breakfast beef contained 22 and 62 ppb NOPRO, respectively.
NOPRO was not detected in a sample of canned chopped ham nor a
wiener sample.
The detection of NOPRO, a non-volatile nitrosamine, in cured
meats suggests that the formation of other non-volatile nitrosamines
is possible. To date, only volatile nitrosamines have been analyzed
and confirmed by mass spectrometry. The ubiquity of proline and
the finding of NOPRO in several different cured meat products suggest
that NOPRO could be an indicator of nitrosation in foods.
Bacon cured in brines containing 800 and 1600 ppm nitrite
contained about 50 and 100 ppm residual nitrite, respectively. Bacons
receiving the lower nitrite level contained no NOPRO while the higher
nitrite treated bacons contained over 100 ppb NOPRO. Frying of bacon
was found to destroy 86 to 100% of NOPRO in the five samples
analyzed. NOPRO has been reported to break down during heating to
nitrosopyrrolidine (NOPYR). However, the levels of NOPRO determined
in raw bacon were not sufficient to produce the amounts of
NOPYR reported in fried bacon if the rate of conversion was similar
to that previously reported in model studies. / Graduation date: 1974

The spectrophotometric identification of the permitted synthetic food coloursDavies, Francis Raymond Edward January 1949 (has links)
Thirteen specified water soluble dyes are permitted for use in edible products consumed in Canada and the United States. The official chemical-physical method of analysis is not very successful when small amounts of one dye are present with larger amounts of others, or even in the analysis of a single dye if present in small quantities. The spectrophotometer has been shown to be very useful in identifying the thirteen permitted dyes individually, and by its means many previously unresolvable binary mixtures have been readily analyzed. Further investigation of the possibilities of this method of analysis is proceeding. / Science, Faculty of / Chemistry, Department of / Graduate

Food as a source of nitrosatable aminesMcIntyre, Timothy 15 December 1986 (has links)
Beer, nonfat dry milk, fried bacon and microwave baked fish were
treated under simulated gastric and extreme nitrosation conditions to
estimate their capacity for generation of endogenously formed
N-nitrosamines. The level of nitrosamines in beer increased from 0.1
ppb N-nitrosodimethylamine to 0.4 ppb N-nitrosodimethylamine (p < 0.05) under simulated gastric nitrosation. The levels in the other food products were not increased under the same simulated gastric
conditions (p < 0.05). Extreme nitrosation illustrated that food has
a large nitrosatable amine content. Beer produced elevated levels of
N-nitrosodimethylamine, N-nitrosodiethylamine, N-nitrosopyrrolidine
and N-nitrosomorpholine. Nonfat dry milk produced elevated levels of
N-nitrosodimethylamine, N-nitrosopiperidine, N-nitrosopyrrolidine and
N-nitrosomorpholine. Fish produced elevated levels of
N-nitrosodimethylamine and N-nitrosopyrrolidine. Overall, certain
food products provide exposure to ample amounts of nitrosatable
amines, but it appears that these food products do not produce a
significantly increased risk from endogenous N-nitrosamine exposure. / Graduation date: 1987

The effect of erythorbic acid on the determination of ascorbic acid levels in selected foods by high performance liquid chromatography and spectrophotometryTuan, Shenhsiu 18 March 1986 (has links)
A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
procedure using a LiChrosorb-NH₂ column and a eluant
buffer of 75:25 (v/v) of acetonitrile:0.05 M KH₂P0₄, pH
5.95, was developed for the successful separation and
determination of ascorbic and erythorbic acids in selected
food samples.
Application of the method, which is sensitive, rapid
and simple, for the analysis of ascorbic and erythorbic
acids in frozen apples, potato products, fruit and vegetable
concentrated juices, frozen juices, natural and artificial
flavor drink mixes, and Hi-C drinks gave satisfactory
results. Dehydroascorbic and dehydroerythorbic acids in
these samples could also be determined after reduction with
dithiothreitol.
It was verified by HPLC that the presence of erythorbic
acid affected the determination of ascorbic acid levels by
the spectrophotometric method by causing elevated absorbance readings and hence, abnormally high values. Erythorbic acid
seriously affects the true determination of ascorbic acid
contents in food samples by the spectrophotometric method.
The use of HPLC is recommended for the routine analysis
of ascorbic acid of those samples containing both ascorbic
and erythorbic acids. / Graduation date: 1986
