EN 15890:2010 Foodstuffs - Determination of patulin in fruit juice and fruit based purée for infants and young children - HPLC method with liquid/liquid partition cleanup and solid phase extraction and UV detection
This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of patulin in fruit juices and fruit-based purée, such as baby food purée, using high performance liquid chromatography with ultra-violet detection (HPLC-UV). Using naturally contaminated and spiked samplesThis method has been validated for the determination of patulin in apple juice, at levels ranging from 3,0 μg/kg to 15,5 μg/kg, and in fruit-based baby food purée, at levels ranging from 3,4 μg/kg to 17,9 μg/kg. Baby food fruit purée used inThis study contained a mixture of the following ingredients which are commercially available on the European market: blueberry; apple; banana; lemon; wheat biscuits; wheat syrup; whole milk; and vegetable oil. A detailed listing, including the fractions, of each product used inThis study is given in [1]. Further information on validation, see Clause 9 and Annex B.
