Glassy carbon electrodes modified with gold nanoparticles for the simultaneous determination of three food antioxidants

Electrochemical behavior of three antioxidants: butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and butylated hydroquinone (TBHQ), was investigated at a glassy carbon electrode modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs/GCE). This electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Determination of Phenolic Anti-Oxidants in Edible Oil by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Amperometric Detector

Abstract

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with amperometric detection was investigated for the analysis of 2-and 3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (BHA), 3,5-di-tert?butyl-4-hydroxytoluene (BHT), and tert?butyl-hydroquinone (TBHQ) in edible oil. The reversed-phase system developed was combined with an amperometric detector, the working electrode of which was made of glassy carbon, in order to compare the sensitivity and selectivity of ultraviolet and fluorometric detection. For the amperometric detection of HPLC, cyclic voltammetry was used to monitor the electrochemical properties of the phenolic antioxidants. A simple isolation procedure, based on the continuous liquid-liquid partition technique, was examined for the extraction and clean up of the antioxidants from edible oil. The recovery rates of BHA, BHT, and TBHQ added salad oil were between 90.2-107.7% in the range of 1-50 ppm of the antioxidants. By the present method, BHA, BHT, and TBHQ were well separated, identified and quantitated with a high sensitivity.     

Separation and Determination of Phenolic Antioxidants by HPLC with Surfactant/n‐Propanol Mobile Phases

The influence of cationic and anionic surfactants and short‐chain alcohols in the mobile phase on the retention of five antioxidants has been studied. The solutes chosen were butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and propyl, octyl, and dodecyl gallates (PG, OG, DG).The surfactants were hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and n‐propanol (PrOH) was the selected alcohol. A simple isocratic reversed‐phase method for the antioxidant determination is proposed. Separation of five primary antioxidants takes 18 min with the mobile phase SDS 0.10 M/H₃PO₄ 0.01 M/PrOH 30%. Variation of the percentage of alcohol in the mobile phase permits optimization of the retention times of the antioxidants. Detection limits in the pg range were obtained for the all solutes. The method was used to determine the antioxidants in olive oil at three different levels, giving mean recoveries close to 100% for all the solutes (BHA 102%, PG 99%, OG 99%, DG 99%) except BHT (84%).

Optimization of a high-performance liquid chromatography system by artificial neural networks for separation and determination of antioxidants

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system was used to determine the antioxidants tert-butyl-hydroquinone (TBHQ), tert-butylhydroxyanisole (BHA), and 3,5-di-tert-butylhydroxytoluene (BHT) simultaneously in oils. The paper presents a new methodology for the optimized separation of antioxidants in oils based on the coupling of experimental design and artificial neural networks. The orthogonal design and the artificial neural networks with extended delta-bar-delta (EDBD) learning algorithm were employed to design the experiments and optimize the variables. The response function (Rf) used was a weighted linear combination of two variables related to separation efficiency and retention time, according to which the optimized conditions were obtained. The above-mentioned antioxidants in rapeseed oils were separated and determined simultaneously under optimized conditions by HPLC with UV detection at 280 nm. Linearity was obtained over the range of 10-200 microg/mL with recoveries of 98.3% (TBHQ), 98.1% (BHT), and 96.2% (BHA).     

Spectrophotometric determination of Cu(II) with sequential injection analysis

A sensitive method is presented for the determination of the synthetic antioxidant butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) based on the dansylation process of the phenolic hydroxy group. The fluorescence developed can be measured directly without previous extraction or chromatographic separation of the labelled fluorescent compound. It is shown the effect of numerous experimental variables affecting the fluorescence intensity and the signal-to-noise ratio of the dansyl derivative. The compound was determined over the range 0.05-5 mug ml(-1), with a relative S.D. of 3.8% (300 ng ml(-1)) and a detection limit of 52 ng ml(-1). The selectivity conferred by the dansylation reaction has permitted to avoid the interference of normally accompanying antioxidants, such as butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), due to steric impediment. The stability of the DNS-derivative is well suited for the analysis of different foodstuffs.     

Determination of in vitro antioxidant and radical scavenging activities of propofol

Propofol (2,6-diisopropylphenol) is a hypnotic intravenous agent with in vivo antioxidant properties. This study was undertaken to examine the in vitro antioxidant activity of propofol using different antioxidant tests including by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazil (DPPH.) radical scavenging, metal chelating, hydrogen peroxide scavenging, superoxide anion radical scavenging, reducing power and total antioxidant activities. At the concentrations of 25, 50, and 75 microg/ml, propofol exhibited 97.7, 98.6 and 100% inhibition on peroxidation of linoleic acid emulsion, respectively. On the other hand, at the 75 microg/ml concentration of standard antioxidants such as butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and alpha-tocopherol exhibited 88.7, 94.5, and 70.4% inhibition on peroxidation of linoleic acid emulsion, respectively. In addition, at same concentrations, propofol was shown that it had effective reducing power, DPPH. free radical scavenging, superoxide anion radical scavenging, hydrogen peroxide scavenging and metal chelating activities. These various antioxidant activities were compared to standard antioxidants such as BHA, BHT and alpha-tocopherol. These results indicate that propofol prevents lipid peroxidation and radicalic chain reactions. At the same time, propofol revealed more effective antioxidant capacity than BHA, BHT and alpha-tocopherol.     

A Sensitive Sensor Based on CuTSPc and Reduced Graphene Oxide for Simultaneous Determination of the BHA and TBHQ Antioxidants in Biodiesel Samples

A novel and sensitive electrochemical sensor was developed for the simultaneous determination of the butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and tert‐butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) antioxidants in biodiesel samples employing the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). In this sense, a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with copper (II) tetrasulfonated phthatocyanine immobilized on reduced graphene oxide (CuTSPc/rGO) allowed the detection of BHA and TBHQ at potentials lower than those observed at unmodified electrodes. The sensor was characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and linear scan voltammetry (LSV). After optimization of the experimental parameters, the analytical curves for simultaneous determination of BHA and TBHQ by DPV technique demonstrated an excellent linear response from 0.1 to 500 µmol L^?1 with detection limit of 0.045 µmol L^?1 for TBHQ and 0.036 µmol L^?1 for BHA. Finally, the proposed method was successfully applied in the simultaneous determination of BHA and TBHQ in six biodiesel samples, and the results obtained were found to be similar to those obtained using the HPLC method with agreement at 95 % confidence level.     

Selective extraction of antioxidants with molecularly imprinted polymers

Molecular imprinting technology can be used to generate specific artificial polymeric receptors, i.e., high affinity stationary phases, as already shown for peptides and many other food ingredients. In this work, polymers have been molecularly imprinted with three exemplary antioxidants, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and propyl gallate (PG). Results of chromatographic evaluations are presented, demonstrating the specificity of the imprinted polymers (MIP) compared to non-specific control polymers (CP). For a BHA imprinted polymer and the respective analyte BHA a separation factor of α=k_BHA-MIP′/k_CP′=1.12 was found, whereas for the BHT-MIP a higher selectivity was determined with α=k_BHT-MIP′/k_CP′=1.47. Using the PG selective MIP for PG as analyte a value of α=k_PG-MIP′/k_CP′=1.24 could be achieved. Furthermore, results of extraction procedures based on MIP and CP phases are presented, demonstrating for instance a higher selectivity of the BHA-MIP in comparison with its CP when using methanol or acetonitrile as analyte solvent, and of the PG-MIP when performing the extraction in acetonitrile.     

Simultaneous analysis of antioxidants and preservatives in cosmetics by supercritical fluid extraction combined with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry

This study evaluated supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) combined with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) to determine trace preservatives and antioxidants including methylparaben (MP), ethylparaben (EP), propylparaben (PP), butylparaben (BP), butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), alpha-tocopherol (alpha-t) and alpha-tocopherol acetate (alpha-ta) in cosmetic products. A supercritical fluid extraction procedure was used to isolate four paraben preservatives and four antioxidants from the cosmetic matrix before quantitative analysis. The optimum extraction condition was performed with static extraction for 5 min, then dynamic extraction for 20 min by using carbon dioxide supercritical fluid at 14,000 kPa and 65 degrees C. Methanol was used as collection solvent and the sea sand was chosen as a filling material. The analytes were separated on a C18 reversed-phase column using methanol-water as mobile phase and quantified by measuring its mass spectrometry. The linearity range is from 10 to 20,000 ng/g with RSD values below 18%. Detection limits are achieved at the level of 4.7-142 ng/g. It was successfully applied to the determination of paraben preservatives and antioxidants in cosmetics without tedious pretreatment.     

Simultaneous determination of five synthetic antioxidants in edible vegetable oil by GC–MS

A simple, quick and nontoxic analytical method for the simultaneous determination of five synthetic antioxidants [t-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (BHA), 2,6-di-t-butyl-hydroxytoluene (BHT), t-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ), ethoxyquin (EQ) and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxymethyl-phenol (Ionox 100)] in edible vegetable oil has been developed. The analytes were extracted by ethanol, then separated and detected by GC–MS. Extraction conditions such as volume of ethanol required, mixing time and number of extractions were investigated and optimized by an orthogonal array experimental design. The five compounds behaved linearly in the 0.100∼20.0 mg/L concentration range, and the limits of detection (LOD) for BHA, BHT, TBHQ, EQ and Ionox-100 were 1.00, 0.92, 11.5, 0.83 and 1.39 μg/L, respectively. The recoveries at the tested concentrations of 1.00, 20.0 and 100 mg/kg were 75.6∼123%, with coefficients of variation <10.0%. The proposed procedure was successfully applied to the simultaneous analysis of the five antioxidants in soybean oil, tea oil, edible blended oil, rap oil, peanut oil, peanut blended oil and sesame oil samples purchased from local supermarkets.

Collaborative study of a qualitative TLC-method for detection of antioxidants (BHA, BHT, gallates and NDGA) in food

Summary A method for the qualitative detection of antioxidants butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), the gallates and nordihydroguajaretic acid (NDGA) in bakery products and fat has been tested in a collaborative study. The method is similar to a IUPAC-method, an EEC-proposed method, and an official French method. After extraction, the compounds are detected by TLC. Being a qualitative method the probability of obtaining correct results is a measure of the goodness of the method, and the study examines the influence on the probability of the following 3 factors: type of antioxidant, type of food, and concentration of antioxidant. From the study is was concluded that the method worked quite well for BHA, with a detection limit about 15 mg/kg, whereas it worked badly for BHT, the detection limit being higher than 30 mg/kg. For the gallates and NDGA the detection limit was 30 mg/kg. Maize oil disturbed the readings on the TLC-plate, and cakes give more correct results than oil/fat.

Gemeinschaftsuntersuchung einer qualitativen DC-Methode zum Nachweis von Antioxidantien (BHA, BHT, Gallate, NDGA) in Lebensmitteln

Zusammenfassung Ein Nachweisverfahren für Antioxidantien (butyliertes Hydroxyanisol BHA, butyliertes Hydroxytoluol BHT, Gallate, Nordihydroguajaretsäure NDGA) in Backwaren und Fett wurde im Rahmen einer Gemeinschaftsuntersuchung getestet. Die Methode ist ähnlich einer IUPAC-Methode, einem EEC-Vorschlag sowie einer amtlichen französischen Methode. Die DC-Trennung erfolgt nach Extraktion. Der Einfluß folgender 3 Faktoren auf die Güte der Ergebnisse wurde geprüft. Art des Antioxidans, Art des Lebensmittels, Konzentration des Antioxidans. Es ergab sich, daß die Methode für BHA gut brauchbar ist (Nachweisgrenze 15 mg/kg), während sie für BHT Nachweisgrenzen von über 30 mg/kg aufweist. Für Gallate und NDGA liegt die Nachweisgrenze bei 30 mg/kg. Maisöl stört die Ablesungen auf der DC-Platte. Bei Backwaren werden bessere Ergebnisse erhalten als bei Ölen und Fetten.
