Determination of Biotin in Foods
食品安全国家标准
食品中生物素的测定
1 Scope
This Standard specifies determination method of biotin in foods.
This Standard is applicable to determination of biotin in foods.
2 Principles
Biotin is the nutrient necessary for growth of lactobacillus plantarum. In the biotin determination culture medium, the growth of lactobacillus plantarum is linearly related to the content of biotin in the specimen to be determined, so the content of the substance to be determined in the specimen can be calculated by comparing the light transmittance and standard work curve.
