摘要: 建立了高效液相色谱法用于检测新西兰 Manuka 蜂蜜中的甲基乙二醛。将蜂蜜溶于水后加入邻苯二胺水溶液,在室温、避光条件下衍生化反应 8 h 以上,产物过 0. 22 μm 滤膜后用 HPLC 检测。以 Kromasil 反相色谱柱为分析柱; 甲醇和 0. 1% ( v /v) 乙酸水溶液为流动相,梯度洗脱; 检测波长为 318 nm; 外标法定量。甲基乙二醛在 1 ~ 50mg /L 范围内线性良好,相关系数为 0. 999 9; 检出限( S /N = 3) 为 0. 02 mg /L,定量限( S /N = 10) 为 0. 06 mg /L; 在50、100、200 mg /kg 添加水平下的回收率为 98. 3% ~ 101. 5%,相对标准偏差( n = 5) 小于 5%; 衍生化产物在 24 h 内稳定。实验结果表明,该方法前处理过程简单,具有良好的灵敏度、回收率和重复性,可用于新西兰 Manuka 蜂蜜的质量控制。该方法也适用于中国蜂蜜中甲基乙二醛的检测。

Abstract: An HPLC method was developed for the determination of methylglyoxal in Manuka honey ofNew Zealand. The honey sample was dissolved in water and mixed with o-phenylenediamine solution forderivatization. After the reaction for at least 8 h in the dark at room temperature,the solution was filteredwith 0. 22 μm membrane and injected into an HPLC system for analysis. The separation was carried outon a Kromasil reversed phase column with gradient elution. The mobile phases were methanol and 0. 1%( v /v) acetic acid aqueous solution. The detection wavelength was 318 nm. The external standard methodwas used for quantitation. The linear range of methylglyoxal was 1 - 50 mg /L with a correlation coefficientof 0. 999 9. The LOD ( S /N = 3) and LOQ ( S /N = 10) were 0. 02 mg /L and 0. 06 mg /L,respectively.The recoveries at the spiked levels of 50,100,200 mg /kg were 98. 3% - 101. 5% and the RSDs( n = 5) were less than 5%. The derivative of methylglyoxal was stable within 24 h. The results showedthat the pretreatment of this method is simple and the sensitivity,the recovery and repeatability are good.This method can be used for the quality control of Manuka honey of New Zealand,and also for the detectionof methylglyoxal in Chinese honey.

Manuka 蜂蜜是新西兰特有的一种珍贵蜜种,是蜜蜂 采 集 新 西 兰 特有的一种红茶树———Manuka( Leptospermum scoparium) 的花蜜酿造而成的。它区别于其他蜂蜜之处在于 Manuka 蜂蜜有强大而独特的抗菌活性。蜂蜜一般都具有抗菌活性,这是由蜂蜜本身的高渗透性、较强的酸度并且一般含有过氧化物造成的[1,2]。而 Manuka 蜂蜜的抗菌活性则不依赖于过氧化物,因此被称为非过氧化抗菌活性( non-peroxide antibacterial activity,NPA) 。1991 年,Molan 等[3]最早报道了这种抗菌活性的物质基础,并将 其 命 名 为 Manuka 独 有 因 子 ( unique Manuka factor,UMF) ; 由于并不清楚 UMF 的准确分子结构,采用微生物学方法对 Manuka 蜂蜜的 NPA 进行了检测。通过比较 Manuka 蜂蜜和一系列不同浓度的苯酚溶液对金黄色葡萄球菌的抑制程度,从 而 对Manuka 蜂蜜的 NPA 进行评级,并标示为 UMF5 + 、UMF10 + 、UMF15 + 等等( 数字表示苯酚溶液的浓度) 。目前,UMF 已经被新西兰 UMF 蜂蜜协会( UniqueManuka Factor Honey Association,UMFHA) 作为评价 Manuka 蜂蜜的质量指标,并要求被授权的蜂蜜生产商将其标注在产品包装上。
