  • Title: Total Amino Acids by UHPLC-UV in Infant Formulas and Adult Nutritionals, First Action 2018.06.
    Author: Jaudzems G, Guthrie J, Lahrichi S, Fuerer C.
    Journal: J AOAC Int; 2019 Sep 01; 102(5):1574-1588. PubMed ID: 31189489.
    Abstract:
    Background: An acid hydrolysis ultrahigh-performance LC-UV method was evaluated for the determination of total amino acids in infant formula and adult/pediatric nutritional formula. Objective: It was assessed for compliance against AOAC INTERNATIONAL Standard Method Performance Requirements (SMPR®) established by the Stakeholder Panel for Infant Formula and Adult Nutritionals (SPIFAN). Methods: A single-laboratory validation (SLV) study was conducted as a first step in the process to validate the method. In this SLV, 17 SPIFAN matrices representing a range of infant formula and adult nutritional products were evaluated for their amino acid content. Results: The analytical range was found to be within the needs for all products; some may require a dilution. Evaluation of trueness performed on Standard Reference Material 1849a (Infant/Adult Nutritional Formula) showed all compounds met the SMPR theoretical value, with exceptions for threonine and tyrosine. These may have a bias for the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) data, depending on hydrolysis used in the determination of the NIST certificate of analysis. Conclusions: Based on the results of this SLV, this method met the SMPR and was approved as a First Action method by the AOAC Expert Review Panel on Nutrient Methods on August 28, 2018.
