Validation of sorbic acid assay method in wines using liquid chromatography (OENO 6/2006)
RESOLUTION OIV-OENO 687-2023
VALIDATION OF SORBIC ACID ASSAY METHOD IN WINES USING LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY (OENO 06/2006)
WARNING: this resolution modifies the following resolution: - OENO 6/2006 |
THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY,
IN VIEW of article 2, paragraph 2 iv of the Agreement of 3rd April 2001 establishing the International Organisation of Vine and Wine,
CONSIDERING the proposal of the “Methods of Analysis” Sub-commission,
CONSIDERING the resolution OENO 06/2006 “Determination of sorbic, benzoic and salicylic acid content in wine by the use of high-performance liquid chromatography”, adopted in 2006
CONSIDERING that this validation concerns only the sorbic acid,
DECIDES to add the annex A: Validation of Sorbic Acid Assay Method in Wines Using Liquid Chromatography, and to change the sorbic acid method from type IV to type II.
DECIDES to modify the resolution OENO 06/2006 “Determination of sorbic, benzoic and salicylic acid content in wine by the use of high-performance liquid chromatography” and consequently method OIV-MAAS313-20 with the following modifications, where the additions can be seen in bold letters and the deleted parts are strikethrough:
2. Scope
All wines and grape musts, especially those likely to contain only traces of sorbic, benzoic or salicylic acid. (demonstration from 1 mg/l).
3. Principle
The antiseptics are determined using HPLC by direct injection of the sample into a column functioning by isocratic reversed-phase partition chromatography with ultraviolet detection at a wavelength of 235 nm [1].
4.11. 50% vol. hydro-alcohol solution or other suitable concentration: put 500 ml of absolute alcohol (4.10) into a 1-litre flask and dilute to volume with distilled water (4.1)
5.7. Detector capable of functioning at an ultraviolet rating of 235 nm (1) and fitted with a circulating tank for HPLC (for example, 8 μl for 1 cm of optical thickness)
A 5- μm stationary phase HPLC column of the silica-type with immobilisation by octadecyl groups (C18), length 20 cm, inside diameter 4 mm (1)
6.2. Degas the elution solvent (4.6) for 5 minutes using the ultrasonic bath (5.2) or any other suitable way.
6.3. Filter the solvent using the device in (5.43)
8. Calculation
Having located the peaks of the acids to be determined in the sample, compare the peak area with those of the acids of a surrogate solution (4.13) with a known concentration C.
For example, let s be the peak area of the acid to be determined, and S is the peak area of the solution (4.13) with concentration C
It is also possible to use a calibration curve and determine the concentration by interpolation.
9. Characteristics of the method
9.1. For Sorbic acid
