Abstract
Abstract
Twelve laboratories collaboratively studied a liquid chromatographic method for determination of quinic, malic, and citric acids in cranberry juice cocktail and apple juice. Samples are passed through a disposable silica cartridge, filtered, and directly injected into the chromatograph. The mobile phase is 0.2M KH2PO4 (pH 2.4). Two reverse phase columns are used, with UV detection at 214 nm. Six samples of cranberry juice cocktail and 6 samples of apple juice were sent to each collaborator. Repeatability and reproducibility coefficients of variation ranged from 1.2 to 7.6% and from 2.9 to 14.7%, respectively, for quinic, malic, and citric acid levels above 0.10%. The precision of the method is satisfactory. The method has been adopted official first action.
