A rapid high performance liquid chromatographic method for the determination of tyramine in dairy products was developed. The amine was extracted from foods with warm methanol, separated by ion-pair reversed phase chromatography and quantitatively determinated after o-phthalaldehyde post-column derivatization with a fluorescence detector. The calibration curve for tyramine in the range of 20-400 ng was linear and reproducible. The overall recovery rates were satisfactory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
