National food safety standard - Determination of total volatile basic nitrogen in foods
1 Scope
This standard specifies the determinative method of total volatile basic nitrogen (TVBN) in foods.
This standard is applicable to the determination of TVBN in foods mainly made of meat, fresh (frozen) meat of animals, meat products and prepared meat products, animal aquatic products and seafood products and their prepared products, preserved egg products such as preserved eggs (century eggs) and salted eggs.
Method I Semimicro-kjeldahl determination
2 Principle
TVBN includes alkaline nitrogenous substances, such as ammonia and amines, produced by the decomposition of protein in animal food due to the action of enzymes and bacteria. Since its volatility, TVBN is evaporated in alkaline solution, absorbed by boric acid solution, and titrated with standard acid solution to calculate its content.

5.2 Specimen treatment
For fresh (frozen) meat, strip of skin, fat, bone and tendon and take lean meat; for fresh (frozen) seafood and aquatic products, strip of shell, skin, head, internal organs, bone and fishbone and take the edible parts; then grind and stir the specimen evenly respectively. For finished product: directly ground and evenly stir the specimen. Meat paste, meat powder, dried meat floss, fish flour, dried fish flour and liquid samples may be used directly. For preserve eggs in salt such as preserved eggs (century eggs) and salted eggs: have their eggshells and egg membranes removed, and then add water to make egg:water = 2:1, and then grind them by a mixer and evenly stir them into homogenate. Weight, to the nearest of 0.001g, 20g of specimen for fresh (frozen) samples, or 10g of specimen for dried products such as meat powder, dried meat floss, fish flour and dried fish flour; pipette 10.0mL or 25.0mL of liquid samples, place it in a conical flask with stopper, accurately add 100.0mL of water, shake the flask from time to time so that the specimen is evenly dispersed in the specimen solution, and filter it after dipping for 30min. Weight, to the nearest of 0.001g, 15g of egg homogenate for preserved eggs and salted eggs (in calculating the content, the mass of the specimen is the mass of egg homogenate multiplied by 2/3). Put it in a conical flask with stopper, accurately add 100.0mL of trichloroacetic acid solution, vigorously and fully shake it for 1min, and let it stand for 15min to make the protein precipitate and then filter it. The filtrate shall be used in time, and the filtrate that cannot be used in time shall be stored in the refrigerator at 0℃ ~ 4℃ for later use. The trichloroacetic acid solution may be used instead of water for special samples which are rich in protein colloid, sticky and difficult to filter. During distillation, 1 ~ 2 drops of silicon oil defoamer may be added to samples with more foam.
5.3 Determination
Add 10mL of boric acid solution and 5 drops of mixed indicator solution into the receiving flask, insert the lower end of the condenser tube below the liquid level, accurately pipette 10.0mL of filtrate, inject it into the reaction chamber via a test glass, wash the test glass with 10mL of water and make it flow into the reaction chamber, and then plug the rod-shaped glass stopper. Then inject 5mL of magnesium oxide suspension into the reaction chamber, immediately close the glass stopper, and add water to the test glass to prevent air leakage. Clamp the screw clamp and start distillation. After distillation for 5min, move the distillate receiving flask to make the liquid level leave the lower end of the condenser tube, and then distill for 1min. Then rinse the outside of the lower end of the condenser tube with a small amount of water, and remove the distillate receiving flask. Titrate with hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid standard volumetric solution (0.0100mol/L) to the end point.
