Abstract
A simple method using Florisil cartridges was developed for the determination of dimethylformamide (DMF) in sucrose esters of fatty acids present in sugar esters (SuE) and sucrose acetate isobutyrate (SAIB) used as food additives. SuE was dissolved in acetone and loaded on a Florisil cartridge. SAIB was dissolved in hexane, loaded on a Florisil cartridge and washed with 10% acetone in hexane. The columns were eluted with acetone and DMF in the eluates was determined by GC with an FID detector. Recoveries of DMF at the level of 0.5-100 micrograms/g were 93.3-102.6%. The determination limit was 0.5 microgram/g.
