Abstract:

A methodology regarding preparation and certification of the reference material for Benzo(a)pyrene in pepper oil was presented. Spiked pepper oil was packed in 100 bottles after homogenization and 10 of these 100 bottles were selected to test the homogeneity of the sample. Two batches of 10 samples from these 100 bottles were kept at 4 ℃ and 20 ℃, respectively. The stabilities of 20 bottles were analyzed e once a week for 8 consecutive weeks. Test results demonstrate the homogeneity and stability of that the pepper oil sample. Benzo(a)pyrene was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, based on isotope dilution. Uncertainty components, combined standard uncertainty and expanded uncertainty were also calculated, and the concentration of the sample was certified as (9.98 ± 0.914 )μg/kg, k = 2. The reference material is intended for use in the methodological validation and quality control for benzo(a)pyrene in edible vegetable oils

Key words: food safety, reference material, benzo(a)pyrene(Bap), pepper oil, quality assurance
