气相色谱法测定鱼油中的二十碳五烯酸、 二十二碳六烯酸和二十二碳五烯酸

目的通过优化鱼油中二十碳五烯酸(eicosapentaenoic acid,EPA)、二十二碳六烯酸(docosahexaenoic acid,DHA)和二十二碳五烯酸(docosapentaenoic acid,DPA)的测定条件,建立鱼油中EPA、DHA和DPA气相色谱定量检测分析方法。方法采用正己烷处理样品,经色谱柱(Agilent,Elite-WAX,30 m×0.25 mm,0.25μm)分离鱼油中的EPA、DHA、DPA甲酯标准品,并进行定量检测。结果 EPA浓度在0.36~3.6 mg/m L、DHA浓度在0.37~3.7 mg/m L、DPA浓度在0.16~1.62 mg/m L的范围内与峰面积的线性良好,相关系数r0.999。在80%、100%、120%添加水平下,EPA、DHA和DPA的检出限分别为0.01%、0.03%、0.009%,EPA、DHA和DPA的回收率分别为96.2%、96.4%、95.7%。结论气相色谱法灵敏度高、准确、重现性好,适用于鱼油中EPA、DHA和DPA的含量测定。

Determination of eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, and docosapentaenoic acid in fish oil by gas chromatography

Objective To establish the method for determination of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) in fish oil by gas chromatography quantitative analysis through optimizing the determination conditions of EPA, DHA and DPA in fish oil. Methods The samples were treated by hexane, EPA, DHA, and DPA in fish oil were separated with chromatographic column. Finally, the analytes were quantitatively detected. Results This method showed a good linearity in the range of 0.36~3.6 mg/mL for EPA, 0.37~3.7 mg/ml for DHA, and 0.16~1.62 mg/mL for DPA with the correlation coefficient r >0.999, the limit of detection of EPA, DHA and DPA were 0.01%, 0.03%, 0.009% under 80%, 100%, and 120% concentrations, and recovery rate of EPA, DHA and DPA in fish oil were 96.2%, 96.4%, and 95.7%, respectively. This method is suitable for sensitive,?accurate and reproducible determination of EPA, DHA and DPA in fish oil.
