  • Title: Liquid chromatographic determination of vitamin D in milk and infant formula.
    Author: Sertl DC, Molitor BE.
    Journal: J Assoc Off Anal Chem; 1985; 68(2):177-82. PubMed ID: 2985532.
    Abstract:
    Vitamin D2 or vitamin D3 is determined by liquid chromatography (LC) in milk and infant formula. Vitamin D is extracted from the saponified sample, passed through an amino-cyano LC cleanup column to remove major interferences, and quantitated using normal phase LC. Within-day precision is 4.5% relative standard deviation (RSD); the overall method RSD (reflecting technician-to-technician, day-to-day, and within-day variability) is 7.7%. Overspike recoveries averaged 97% for milk, 98% for milk-based infant formula, and 93% for soy-based infant formula. The performance of the method is compared with that of the official AOAC vitamin D method (rat bioassay). The method is applicable to the determination of vitamin D in milk and in the major milk- and soy-based infant formulas available in the United States. The method can quantitate (but not distinguish) either vitamin D2 or vitamin D3. The method is applicable to milk and infant formula samples containing between 100 and 1500 IU vitamin D/L. Sample throughput is between 4 and 8 replicates per day.
