Hydroxytyrosol is a phenolic compound presenting in the leaves and fruits of olive trees (Olea europaea L.) and it has strong antioxidant activity. In recent years, Europe and the United States have recognized the use of hydroxytyrosol as a food ingredient. Furthermore, hydroxytyrosol extracted from olive pomace has a daily consumption limit (below 20 mg) in the available food list of the Food and Drug Administration. In this study, we coordinate the implementation of administrative management to establish the analytical method for hydroxytyrosol in capsule and tablet functional foods by high performance liquid chromatography. The sample was uniformly dispersed with 0.05 M sodium acetate buffer (pH 5) by ultrasonication for 20 min. After centrifuged and filtrated, the filtrate was separated by a ZORBAX Eclipse Plus C18 column (5 μm, 4.6 × 25 cm) and detected at the wavelength of 280 nm. The average recoveries of hydroxytyrosol at 0.05 and 2.5 mg/g in intra-day were 104.7 and 102.6%, and the coefficients of variation were 1.6 and 1.2%, respectively. The average recoveries of hydroxytyrosol at 0.05 and 2.5 mg/g in inter-day were 104.6 and 103.4%, and the coefficients of variation were 1.7 and 1.2%, respectively. The results showed that the method had high precision and accuracy. The contents of hydroxytyrosol in the six of seven online shopping samples were 0.07-2.88 mg/g, except one not detectable. And none of them violet the regulation for hydroxytyrosol daily recommended consumption limit (not exceed 20 mg per day). |
