Abstract

This study was carried out to develop an optimized analytical method using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) applied to canthaxanthin, which is not yet designated as a food colorant in Korea, as well as to perform validation and uncertainty evaluation of this method. Official methods of AOAC, UK, and Japan with HPLC-UV detection were evaluated for the analysis of canthaxanthin by comparison of linearity, resolution, selectivity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantitation (LOQ), accuracy, precision, recovery, inter-laboratory tests, and uncertainty measurement. The calibration curves showed high linearity with an $R_2$ value of over 0.999 for canthaxanthin standard solutions in all three official methods. The official method of Japan exhibited the best results in terms of resolution and selectivity, including the lowest LOD and LOQ. The average coefficients of variation were calculated as less than five of three institutes with a precision value less than 1, accuracy near 100%, and recovery ratio between $100{\pm}10%$. The expanded uncertainty for canthaxanthin was estimated to be $39.5{\pm}5.29mg/kg$ (95% confidence level, k=2), and the uncertainty of measurement was 13.4%. In this study, official methods of canthaxanthin were compared and the validities verified. The results will be further applied to establish an authorized analytical method for canthaxanthin in Korea.

본 연구는 한국에서 식용색소로 지정되지 않은 keto-carotenoid계의 canthaxanthin에 대한 최적 분석방법을 확보하기 위해 수행되었다. HPLC-UVD를 이용한 외국의 canthaxanthin 공인분석법을 검토하여 직선성, 분리능, 민감도, 검출한계(LOD), 정랑한계(LOQ)를 도출하고, 각 실험 데이터를 비교하여 최적의 canthaxanthin 분석방법을 확보하였다. 또한 확보된 최적 분석방법에 대한 정밀도, 정확도, 회수율, 실험실 간 교차검증, 측정불확도를 산출하여 canthaxanthin 최적 분석법에 대한 타당성을 검증하였다. AOAC법, 일본 및 영국의 공인분석법을 이용하여 canthaxanthin 표준용액을 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, $300{\mu}g/mL$의 6 point로 희석한 후 얻은 검량선의 상관계수는 모두 $R^2=0.999$ 이상으로 나타나 우수한 직선성을 보였으나 분리능, 민감도, LOD, LOQ는 일본의 공인분석법이 가장 우수하였다. 일본 공인분석법의 LOD와 LOQ는 각각 0.084 mg/kg, 0.254 mg/kg으로 나타났으며, 1보다 낮은 정밀도, 100%에 가까운 정확도, $100{\pm}10%$ 사이의 회수율, 교차검증 시 세 기관의 변동계수가 5이하로 나타나 canthaxanthin 분석을 위해 가장 최적화된 방법으로 확인되었다. 또한 측정하는 중에 나타나는 불확실성을 알아보기 위하여 canthaxanthin이 함유된 가공식품을 분석하여 측정불확도를 산출한 결과 $39.5{\pm}5.29mg/kg$(95% 신뢰구간, k=2.78)으로 나타났다. 확장불확도는 측정 농도의 13.4%로 나타나 유럽연합의 기준(16% 이하)에 적합한 결과를 보였다.
