Abstract

Seven brands of commercial apple juice in Korea obtained from local stores were analyzed for patulin. Sep-Pak silica cartridge purification of the extract by ethyl acetate offered a good separation of patulin from other components. Patulin was determined by reverse phase liquid chromatography using a J'sphere $4\;{\mu}m$ ODS-H80 column with an ultraviolet detector set at 274 nm. Patulin concentrations in four samples ranged from 4 to $20\;{\mu}g/L$ and the other three samples from 30 to $45\;{\mu}g/L$. The limit of detection was $3\;{\mu}g/L$, and the recovery was $80{\sim}90%$ at the contamination level of $3.78{\sim}125.9\;{\mu}g/L$.

7개의 국내 시판 사과 주스제품에 대해 patulin 오염수준을 분석하였다. Sep-Pak silica cartridge를 이용한 ethyl acetate 추출물의 정제과정은 HPLC 분석시 추출물내의 다른 성분으로부터 patulin의 분리를 용이하게 하였다. Patulin 검출은 J'sphere $4\;{\mu}m$ ODS-H80 column을 사용하여 reverse phase HPLC로 274 nm에서 분석하였다. 분석결과 4개의 제품은 $4{\sim}20\;{\mu}g/L$ 수준으로, 나머지 3개 제품은 $30{\sim}45\;{\mu}g/L$ 수준으로 patulin에 오염되어 있었다. 이 분석방법에서의 검출 한계농도는 $3\;{\mu}g/L$이며 $3.78{\sim}125.9\;{\mu}g/L$ 오염수준에 대해 $80{\sim}90%$의 회수율을 보였다.
