Abstract

Liquid-liquid extraction combined with on-line coupled high performance liquid chromatography-gas chromatography was proposed for highly sensitive determination of trace mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) and aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH) in Baijiu, beer and wine. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.05 mg/L, the recovery was 87%-107% and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was 1.9%-4.9%. The results showed that no contaminants were detected in all beer and wine samples. MOSH were detected in five Baijiu samples with contents ranging from 0.06 to 2.74 mg/L. MOAH of 0.11 and 1.24 mg/L were detected in two Baijiu samples, respectively. The contamination of these positive samples was positively correlated with the alcohol contents which might come from the packaging metal cans.
