Abstract:
A new method for the determination of organic acids in tobacco was established based on matrix solid phase dispersion was established. The samples and graphitized carbon black sorbent (1:4) were homogenized in a mortar for 5 min and then packed into a cartridge. The organic acids were eluted from the cartridge with water. Then, they were analysed by high performance liquid chromatography with 2% methanol (containing 0.01 mol/L NaH2PO4 buffer, pH 2.98) as mobile phase at the flow rate of 2.0 mL/min and detected at wavelength of 210 nm. The six organic acids were separated on a ZORBAX Stable Bound (4.6×50 mm, 1.8 m m) column within 3 min. The limits of detections (S/N=3) were below 200 m g/L. The mean recoveries are range from 94% -98%, and the relative standard deviations are below 3.0%. This method had been successfully applied to the determination of organic acids in tobacco with good results.
