Abstract

Abstract:

Tremendous attention has been paid to the analysis and determination of melamine due to the melamine accident that broke out in China in 2007. With the aim to offer useful guidance for the determination of melamine in foodstuffs and animal feed, this article summarizes chemical and toxicological properties of melamine, relevant regulations at home and abroad and detection technologies, stressly introduces national standard analytical methods of various countries for the determination of melamine, and discusses characteristics and affecting factors of various pretreatment and detection technologies.

Key words: melamine, foodstuff, animal feed, determination, pretreatment
