Abstract
Derivatisation treatment with diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate followed by ultra-HPLC allowed the simultaneous quantification of 22 amino acids, 7 biogenic amines and ammonium ions in cheese samples in under 10 min. This is the fastest elution time ever reported for such a resolution. The proposed method shows good linearity (R(2)>0.995) and sensitivity (detection limit 0.08-3.91 μM; quantification limit <13.02 μM). Intra- and inter-day repeatability ranged from 0.35% to 1.25% and from 0.85% to 5.2%, respectively. No significant effect of the cheese matrix was observed.
