Abstract:

A GC-MS method for quantitative analysis of monobutyrin was established. The determination parameters were the capillary column DB-5MS (30 × 0.25 mmm, 0.25μm), injection temperature of 280 ℃ programmed temperature increase from 100 to 150 ℃ with an increase rate of 10 ℃/min, then programmed temperature increase from 150 ℃ to final temperature of 250 ℃ at an increase rate of 30 ℃/min, helium flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and split ratio of 10:1, respectively. Results indicated that a good linear relationship between integral value (Y) of peak area and the content of monobutyrin (X) in the range of 0.5-10μg/mL was observed and the linear equation was Y=146961X-30250 (r=0.9997). Recovery rate of monobutyrin were 99.9% with the RSD of 1.7%. The limit of determination was 0.2 ng. This method is simple, accurate and reproducible so that it can be used for the determination of monobutyrin.
