What is BS EN 16852- GC-MS method for the determination of ethyl carbamate in stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits and other spirit drinks about?
BS EN 16852 discusses the determination of ethyl carbamate in stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits, and other spirit drinks. BS EN 16852 is a European standard that provides a GC-MS method for the determination of ethyl carbamate in stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits, and other spirit drinks to ensure they are safe for consumption.
BS EN 16852 specifies a gas chromatographic method using mass spectrometric detection for the determination of ethyl carbamate (EC) in stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits, and other spirit drinks.
The method under BS EN 16852 has been validated in an interlaboratory study for stone fruit spirits and fruit liqueurs, at levels ranging from 0,253 mg/l to 1,11 mg/l. However, the linearity of the instrument response was proven for the concentration ranges 0,10 mg/l to 4,0 mg/l (simplified method) and 0,025 mg/l to 3,0 mg/l (procedure including sample clean-up), respectively.
Who is BS EN 16852- GC-MS method for the determination of ethyl carbamate in stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits, and other spirit drinks for?
BS EN 16852 on GC-MS method for the determination of ethyl carbamate in stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits, and other spirit drinks is useful for:
- Food scientists
- Food technologists
- Food laboratories
- Food health and safety departments
Why should you use BS EN 16852- GC-MS method for the determination of ethyl carbamate in stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits, and other spirit drinks?
Ethyl carbamate (EC), a chemical substance widely present in fermented food products and alcoholic beverages, has been classified as a Group 2A carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Long-term exposure to EC may cause neurological disorders.
BS EN 16852 provides you with apparatus, methods, procedures, gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC-MS), calculation, precision data, chromatograms.
The methods and procedures provided by BS EN 16852 assist in improving the quality of stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits and other spirit drinks and ensure reducing the risk on human health due to consumption of ethyl carbamate content.
By adopting BS EN 16852 the user can improve the quality of the stone fruit spirits, fruit marc spirits, and other spirit drinks and help produce a high-quality product.
