Summary

Application of the modified Rankine (MR), GLC and present official Monier-Williams methods to the determination of sulphites in a variety of foods was attempted. Generally, sulphite contents determined by these three methods were in good agreement although the values obtained by the modified Monier-Wiliams method were slightly higher than by the other two. A marked interfering effect of other sulphur compounds was observed in the case of determinations by the Monier-Williams method. On the other hand, the determined sulphite values by the MR and GLC methods were independent of the coexisting sulphur compounds. The ratios of free or combined sulphites to total sulphites were compared among the two methods, and in most foods tested the rations of combined to total sulphites were not less than 65%. We conclude that both the MR and GLC methods are valid for the separate determination of free and combined sulphites in most foods, and these two methods will be preferred for routine analysis because of their simplicity and speed.

Vergleichende Bestimmungen der freien und gebundenen Sulphite in Lebensmitteln mittels der modifizierten Rankinemethode und der Gaschromatographie mit Flammenphotometer-Detektor. V.

Zusammenfassung

Es wurde eine vergleichende Sulfitbestimmung in verschiedenen Lebensmitteln mit Hilfe der modifizierten Rankinemethode (MR), der Gaschromatographie und der Monier-Williams-Methode durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse stimmen gut überein, wobei die Monier-Williams-Methode geringfügig höhere Werte erbrachte. Diese Methode wird durch schwefelhaltige Lebensmittelinhaltsstoffe empfindlich gestört.

Des weiteren wurde in verschiedenen Lebensmitteln die Relation von freiem zu gebundenem Sulfit ermittelt. Dabei stellte sich heraus, daß in den meisten Lebensmitteln 65% des Sulfits in gebundener Form vorliegen. Sowohl MR-Methode als auch Gaschromatographie erlauben eine getrennte Bestimmung von freiem und gebundenem Sulfit. Da beide Methoden einfach und schnell durchzuführen sind, eignen sie sich für die Routinebestimmung.
