Determination of Acrolein in Glycerol by Gas Chromatography
A method for the determination of acrolein in glycerol samples has been established. The samples were dissolved in ethanol,separated by MEGA-WAX Plus capillary column (30 m×0.32 mm×0.5 μm) and detected by FID. The correlation coefficient (r) of the standard curve in the range of 0.25~10 ug/mL is 0.9999,the limits of detection was 0.10 µg/mL and the limit of quantification was 0.25µg/mL. The relative standard deviation was 0.56%~2.87% and the recovery rate was 99.72%~99.93%. The method has the advantages of simple operation,short analysis time,high precision and accuracy,and can be used for the determination of acrolein in glycerol products.
