Abstract
A microchip capillary-electrophoresis protocol for rapid and effective measurements of food-related phenolic acids (including chlorogenic, gentisic, ferulic, and vanillic acids) is described. Relevant parameters of the chip separation and amperometric detection are examined and optimized. Under optimum conditions, the analytes could be separated and detected in a 15 mM borate buffer (pH 9.5, with 10% of methanol) within 300 s using a separation voltage of 2000 V and a detection voltage of +1.0 V. Linear calibration plots are observed for micromolar concentrations of the phenolic acid compounds. The negligible sample volumes used in the microchip procedure obviates surface fouling common to amperometric measurements of phenolic compounds. The new microchip protocol offers great promise for a wide range of food applications requiring fast measurements and negligible sample consumption. An application on a commercial red wine was performed with minimal sample preparation and promising results.Pubblicazioni consigliate
