Determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in fat products by high pressure liquid chromatography. 1980

A Van Heddeghem, and A Huyghebaert, and H De Moor

The method previously described by Gertz [1] for the extraction of 3,4-benzopyrene in meat- and fishproducts has been adapted for butter, margarine, edible oils and fats and extended to other polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH): 1,2-benzopyrene, 1,2,3,4-dibenzanthracene, 1,2,5,6-dibenzanthracene and 1,12-benzoperylene. The isolated PAH are determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography on reversed-phase columns with detection by fluorimetry. Recoveries range from 76 to 85%. The detection limit varies between 0.10 and 0.90 ppb. By application of optimized analysis conditions the sensitivity can be increased to 0.01 ppb for each compound.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009821 Oils Unctuous combustible substances that are liquid or easily liquefiable on warming, and are soluble in ether but insoluble in water. Such substances, depending on their origin, are classified as animal, mineral, or vegetable oils. Depending on their behavior on heating, they are volatile or fixed. (Dorland, 28th ed)
D010569 Perylene A 20-carbon dibenz(de,kl)anthracene that can be viewed as a naphthalene fused to a phenalene or as dinaphthalene. It is used as fluorescent lipid probe in the cytochemistry of membranes and is a polycyclic hydrocarbon pollutant in soil and water. Derivatives may be carcinogenic. Perilene,Peri-Dinaphthalene,Peri Dinaphthalene
D011083 Polycyclic Compounds Compounds which contain two or more rings in their structure. Compounds, Polycyclic
D002851 Chromatography, High Pressure Liquid Liquid chromatographic techniques which feature high inlet pressures, high sensitivity, and high speed. Chromatography, High Performance Liquid,Chromatography, High Speed Liquid,Chromatography, Liquid, High Pressure,HPLC,High Performance Liquid Chromatography,High-Performance Liquid Chromatography,UPLC,Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography,Chromatography, High-Performance Liquid,High-Performance Liquid Chromatographies,Liquid Chromatography, High-Performance
D005223 Fats The glyceryl esters of a fatty acid, or of a mixture of fatty acids. They are generally odorless, colorless, and tasteless if pure, but they may be flavored according to origin. Fats are insoluble in water, soluble in most organic solvents. They occur in animal and vegetable tissue and are generally obtained by boiling or by extraction under pressure. They are important in the diet (DIETARY FATS) as a source of energy. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)
D001551 Benz(a)Anthracenes Four fused benzyl rings with three linear and one angular, that can be viewed as a benzyl-phenanthrenes. Compare with NAPHTHACENES which are four linear rings. Benz(b)Phenanthrenes,Naphthanthracenes
D001580 Benzopyrenes A class of chemicals that contain an anthracene ring with a naphthalene ring attached to it. Benzpyrene
D013050 Spectrometry, Fluorescence Measurement of the intensity and quality of fluorescence. Fluorescence Spectrophotometry,Fluorescence Spectroscopy,Spectrofluorometry,Fluorescence Spectrometry,Spectrophotometry, Fluorescence,Spectroscopy, Fluorescence
D013056 Spectrophotometry, Ultraviolet Determination of the spectra of ultraviolet absorption by specific molecules in gases or liquids, for example Cl2, SO2, NO2, CS2, ozone, mercury vapor, and various unsaturated compounds. (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed) Ultraviolet Spectrophotometry
