This method is suitable for the determination of egg yolk concentration in the range of 40 to 250 g/l in egg liqueur and liqueur with egg.
ISO 3696:1897 Water for analytical laboratory use — Specifications and test methods.
The ethanol-soluble phosphorus compounds found in egg yolk are extracted and assayed photometrically as a phosphorus molybdate complex.
dissolve 20 g of ammonium molybdate (CAS 12054-85-2), (NH 4 ) 6 Mo 7 O 24 .4H 2 O in 400 ml water at 50 o C;
dissolve, in another vessel, 1 g of ammonium vanadate (CAS 7803-55-6), NH 4 VO 3 , in 300 ml hot water, allow to cool, then add 140 ml of concentrated nitric acid (CAS 7697-37-2). Combine the cooled solutions in a 1 000 ml volumetric flask and make up to the 1 000 ml mark.
Samples are stored at room temperature prior to analysis.
dihydrogen phosphate solution (ml) | 0 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 |
P 2 O 5 (mg) | 0 | 0,167 | 0,334 | 0,501 | 0,668 | 0,835 |
The egg yolk content in g/l is calculated from the following formula:
where:
conversion factor for total P 2 O 5 in g in 100 g of egg yolk
value established from the calibration curve
mass per unit volume (g/ml) of the egg-based liqueur at 20 o C
weight of the egg-based liqueur in g
dilution factor for a 5 ml aliquot of ash solution.
