Article Synopsis
- A study published in J. AOAC Int. detailed a method for measuring total myo-inositol in infant and nutritional formulas using high-performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD).
- The AOAC Expert Review Panel approved this method as Official First Action, confirming it meets the required standards for free myo-inositol determination while also including total myo-inositol analysis.
- The method features two techniques: a traditional approach involving 6 hours in an autoclave and a more efficient microwave-assisted acid hydrolysis with enzymatic treatment that shortens extraction time.
A method for the analysis of free and total myo-inositol in foods, feeds, and infant formulas has been developed and validated using high-performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection. The option of a free myo-inositol determination or a complete total myo-inositol determination from main bound sources can be achieved. These sources include phytates, lower'phosphorylated forms, and phosphatidylinositol.
