Abstract

An alternative method was applied using headspace solid-phase
microextraction (HS-SPME) for simultaneous determination of sorbic and
benzoic acid in beverages. The samples were pretreated with NaOH and fitered
through 0.45μm membrane filter, placed in 12ml amber vial and heat with the
addition with anhydrous sodium sulfate and sulfuric acid. The sorbic and
benzoic acid were extracted in the headspace by using 85 μm polyacrylate fiber
and further examined by gas chromatography with flame ionization (FID)
detector. The sensitivity of the fiber was enhanced through the optimization of
extraction and desorption temperature. The linear range of analytes was found
to be between 0.2 L
g to 1.0 L
g with regression coefficient 0.9943 for sorbic
acid and 1.000 for benzoic acid. In this analysis, the three concentrated juices
were found to be below the Malaysian permitted level of preservatives food act.
