An ULPC-MS/MS method was optimized in order to measure cobalamins in naturally enriched raw milk and to evaluate their fate during thermal treatments and along the process of cheese making. After addition of methotrexate as internal standard, samples were submitted to heat treatment in presence of cyanide that converts all the less stable cobalamins in cyanocobalamin; then a purification was performed by a solid phase extraction (SPE) step. Reverse phase UPLC separation coupled to tandem mass spectrometry provides a fast and reliable determination.

Abstract

An ULPC-MS/MS method was optimized in order to measure cobalamins in naturally enriched raw milk and to evaluate their fate during thermal treatments and along the process of cheese making. After addition of methotrexate as internal standard, samples were submitted to heat treatment in presence of cyanide that converts all the less stable cobalamins in cyanocobalamin; then a purification was performed by a solid phase extraction (SPE) step. Reverse phase UPLC separation coupled to tandem mass spectrometry provides a fast and reliable determination.
