Abstract
Background: A method for simultaneous determination of six human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) is described. The HMOs include 2'-fucosyllactose (2'-FL, CAS number 41263-94-9), 3-fucosyllactose (3-FL, CAS number 41312-47-4), 6'-sialyllactose (6'-SL, CAS number 35890-39-2), 3'-sialyllactose (3'-SL, CAS number 35890-38-1), lacto-N-tetraose (LNT, CAS number 14116-68-8), and lacto-N-neotetraose (LNnT, CAS number 13007-32-4). The method was designed to comply with the respective Standard Method Performance Requirements (SMPR®; seeTable 1), respectively.
Objective: The method is valid for six HMOs in infant formula and adult nutritional matrixes, including samples with intact protein, protein hydrolysates, elemental formulations free of intact protein, and rice flour over the ranges defined in the SMPR (seeTable 2). The method is not valid for determination of difucosyllactose (DFL/DiFL).
Method: For most samples, reconstitution with water followed by filtration. For products containing interferences (fructans and maltodextrins), hydrolysis with enzymes is used. After preparation, samples are analyzed using high-performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD). The method provides for separation of six HMOs and other carbohydrates commonly found in infant formula and adult nutritional products (e.g., lactose, sucrose, and GOS).
Results: This study includes data from multiple matrixes evaluated by multiple laboratories globally. RSDr ranged from 0.0068 to 4.8% RSDr, and spike recovery results ranged from 89.4 to 109%. Calibration fit optimal with a quadratic curve; alternately linear fit showed no statistically significant impact to data (when correlation passes).
Conclusions: This method was reviewed by the AOAC SPIFAN Expert Review Panel (ERP) and determined to meet the SMPRs for the six noted HMOs.
Highlights: The method was granted First Action Official MethodsSM status.
