Overview

The BS ISO 7102:2024 standard is an essential document for professionals in the field of infant nutrition and food safety. This standard provides a comprehensive methodology for the determination of β-galactooligosaccharides (β-GOS) in infant formula using Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC) with fluorescence detection after pre-column derivatization. This advanced analytical technique ensures precise and accurate measurement of β-GOS, which are crucial components in infant formula due to their prebiotic properties.

Key Features

  • Advanced Analytical Method: Utilizes UHPLC with fluorescence detection for high sensitivity and specificity.
  • Pre-column Derivatization: Enhances the detection capabilities, ensuring accurate quantification of β-GOS.
  • Comprehensive Guidelines: Detailed procedures and protocols for consistent and reproducible results.
  • Industry Standard: Recognized and adopted globally, ensuring compliance with international regulations.

Why This Standard is Important

β-Galactooligosaccharides are non-digestible carbohydrates that play a significant role in promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria in infants. Their presence in infant formula is crucial for mimicking the beneficial effects of human milk. The BS ISO 7102:2024 standard provides a reliable and validated method for the determination of these important compounds, ensuring that infant formulas meet the highest standards of quality and safety.

Detailed Methodology

The standard outlines a meticulous process for the determination of β-GOS, starting from sample preparation to the final analysis. The use of UHPLC with fluorescence detection after pre-column derivatization offers several advantages:

  • High Sensitivity: The fluorescence detection method is highly sensitive, allowing for the detection of β-GOS at very low concentrations.
  • Specificity: The pre-column derivatization step ensures that the β-GOS are specifically targeted, reducing the interference from other components in the formula.
  • Speed and Efficiency: UHPLC provides faster analysis times compared to traditional HPLC methods, increasing laboratory efficiency.

Applications

This standard is indispensable for:

  • Infant Formula Manufacturers: Ensuring their products meet regulatory requirements and provide the intended health benefits.
  • Quality Control Laboratories: Implementing robust testing protocols to maintain product quality and safety.
  • Research Institutions: Conducting studies on the nutritional content and health impacts of infant formulas.

Global Recognition

The BS ISO 7102:2024 standard is recognized worldwide, making it a critical document for any organization involved in the production, testing, or research of infant formulas. Compliance with this standard not only ensures product quality but also enhances consumer trust and confidence.

Conclusion

In the highly regulated and sensitive field of infant nutrition, the BS ISO 7102:2024 standard stands out as a vital resource. By providing a detailed and validated method for the determination of β-galactooligosaccharides, it helps manufacturers and laboratories ensure that their products are safe, effective, and of the highest quality. This standard is a testament to the ongoing commitment to improving infant health and nutrition through rigorous scientific methods and international collaboration.
