High pressure liquid chromatographic determination of sodium saccharin, sodium benzoate, and caffeine in soda beverages: collaborative study. 1979

B B Woodward, and G P Heffelfinger, and D I Ruggles

A collaborative study for the determination of sodium saccharin, sodium benzoate, and caffeine in 3 types of soda beverage, cola, grape, and lemon-lime, has been completed using reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography with a muC18 column and acetic acid mobile phase. Recoveries for sodium saccharin were 98.6, 98.0, and 99.1%; for sodium benzoate, 100.6, 102.6, and 100.6%; and for caffeine, 100.8, 101.4, and 101.1%, respectively. The method has been adopted as official first action.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D002110	Caffeine	A methylxanthine naturally occurring in some beverages and also used as a pharmacological agent. Caffeine's most notable pharmacological effect is as a central nervous system stimulant, increasing alertness and producing agitation. It also relaxes SMOOTH MUSCLE, stimulates CARDIAC MUSCLE, stimulates DIURESIS, and appears to be useful in the treatment of some types of headache. Several cellular actions of caffeine have been observed, but it is not entirely clear how each contributes to its pharmacological profile. Among the most important are inhibition of cyclic nucleotide PHOSPHODIESTERASES, antagonism of ADENOSINE RECEPTORS, and modulation of intracellular calcium handling.	1,3,7-Trimethylxanthine,Caffedrine,Coffeinum N,Coffeinum Purrum,Dexitac,Durvitan,No Doz,Percoffedrinol N,Percutaféine,Quick-Pep,Vivarin,Quick Pep,QuickPep
