Optimization of a new method for extraction of cyanidin chloride and pelargonidin chloride anthocyanins with magnetic solid phase extraction and determination in fruit samples by HPLC with central composite design

摘要

AbstractHere, we are reporting a sensitive, simple and rapid method for the analysis of cyanidin chloride and pelargonidin chloride anthocyanins in cherry, sour cherry, pomegranate and barberry produced in Iran. The analytes were extracted with acetonitrile-hydrochloric acid (1% v/v) mixture under optimized pretreatment conditions. Clean-up of the extract from fruits was conducted by magnetic solid phase extraction using salicylic acid functionalized silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles (SCMNPs) as the adsorbent. The optimized conditions searched with central composite design. Working under optimum conditions specified as: SCMNPs modified with salicylic acid, sorbent contact time and sample 10min, mechanical stirring time 57.3min.HPLC with UV-detection was used for determination of the analytes. The limit of detection, LOD, obtained for the two anthocyanins were 0.02 and 0.03μgg?1, respectively. The ranges of the spiked recoveries were 80.0–97.6 and 72.9–97.2%, with the relative standard deviations (RSD) of 2.1 and 2.5%, respectively.]]>
