6、rganization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been estab

7、lished has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardizat

Store the test sample in such a way that deterioration and change in its composition are prevented. In case of mixed beve

32、rage powders, a minimum of 50 g of the product is required (for portion packages: a minimum of five portions). 7 Preparation of test samples 7.1 Green coffee Grind (5.9) green coffee beans so that more than 50 % mass fraction of the sample passes through the sieve (5.10). Then take the test sample f

33、rom the well-mixed total ground coffee. BS ISO 20481:20084 7.2 Roasted coffee Mill (5.8) roasted coffee beans so that more than 50 % mass fraction passes through the sieve (5.10). Use roasted ground coffee in commercial packages without further treatment except homogenization. 7.3 Soluble coffee Gri

34、nding of soluble coffee is not required. 7.4 Mixed beverages Homogenize mixed coffee beverage powders using the mill (5.8) immediately before extraction in order to prevent segregation. 8 Procedure 8.1 Optional determination of coffee dry matter (see 9.2) Calculate the coffee dry matter content to b

35、e used in 9.2 from the moisture content determined on a portion of the test sample (Clause 7) in accordance with ISO 6673 for green coffee, ISO 11817 for roasted coffee, ISO 3726 for instant coffee. For other types of coffee and coffee-derived products, the dry matter content determination shall be

36、subject to agreement between the interested parties. 8.2 Test portion 8.2.1 Roasted and green coffee Weigh (5.1) about 1 g of the test sample (7.1, 7.2) to the nearest milligram, and transfer into a 250 ml volumetric flask (5.11). 8.2.2 Instant coffee Weigh (5.1) about 0,5 g of the test sample (7.3)

37、 to the nearest milligram, and transfer into a 250 ml volumetric flask (5.11). 8.2.3 Mixed beverages Weigh (5.1) about 1 g of the test sample (7.4) to the nearest milligram, and transfer into a 250 ml volumetric flask (5.11). 8.3 Extraction of caffeine Add to the test portion (8.2.1, 8.2.1 or 8.2.3)

38、 in the flask, 5 g magnesium oxide (4.2) and about 200 ml water. Place the flask in a water bath maintained at boiling point and wait until the solution has reached at least 90 C. Continue heating the flask in the water bath for 20 min, mix occasionally by shaking or stirring. Remove the volumetric

39、flask from the water bath, cool to room temperature under tap water, and make up to volume with water. Wait until the solids have settled. Take an aliquot of the supernatant solution, and filter through a 0,45 m filter (5.2), discarding the first few millilitres. The filtrate is now ready for the HP

40、LC separation. BS ISO 20481:200858.4 Determination 8.4.1 Adjustment of the apparatus IMPORTANT The mobile phase should be degassed for 20 min in the ultrasonic bath (5.6) or purged with helium prior to use. If the HPLC equipment includes a degasser, 10 min are sufficient. Set up the chromatograph (5

41、.3) in accordance with the manufacturers instructions and adjust it as follows: a) flow rate of the mobile phase (4.4): 1,0 ml/min; b) UV detector set at 272 nm (or 254 nm in case of a filter detector). Ensure that the detector sensitivity range fits to the peak of the standard solution (in case of

42、more than one standard to the peak of the highest one). 8.4.2 HPLC analysis Once the flow rate of the mobile phase and the corresponding pressure are stable, allow the system to equilibrate for at least 10 min. Then inject 10 l of the standard solution onto the column, using the microlitre syringe (

43、5.7), in the next run followed by an equal volume of the sample extract (8.3). When a single standard solution is used, inject it at regular intervals (typically after six sample extracts). After each batch of analysis, thoroughly flush the chromatographic system and column with 50 % volume fraction

44、 methanol (4.1) and water, and replace column sealing plugs if disconnected for storage. 9 Calculation 9.1 Caffeine content in the sample Calculate the caffeine content, wx, expressed as a percentage by mass, numerically equivalent to grams per 100 g coffee as is, according to Equation (2): cccs cs1

Take as the result the arithmetic mean of two determinations carried out under repeatability conditions (10.2). BS ISO 20481:20086 9.2 Optional determination
