Abstract | An improved extraction (2.5% HPO₃, 5 mM dithiothreitol) and HPLC quantification using a C-18 column at 35°C and 0.1M acetic acid (98%) and acetonitrile (2%) mobile phase was developed to quantify total ascorbic acid (AA) in commercial whole/semi-skim/skim raw/pasteurized/UHT milk packaged in opaque bags, transparent plastic, cardboard, and Tetra Brik™. AA content ranged 0.21-10 and 3.4-16 mg/L in milk from retail outlets and processing plants, respectively, and was higher in organic milk. For same processor/lot samples, pasteurized milk showed higher AA content than UHT milk. This was not true for retail outlets samples. AA content was similar for whole/semi-skim and semi-skim/skim milk but not for whole/skim comparisons. Among UHT samples, the AA content trend was whole<semi-skim<skim and lower for UHT milk in opaque plastic and Tetra Brik™ container. After 14d at 4°C in the dark, AA losses ranged 35-83% depending on milk type and preservation method with a higher AA retention in unopened containers. |
