How do you Analyse vitamin content in food?

Analyzing the vitamin content in food involves several laboratory techniques. Here's an overview of the common methods used High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC):  HPLC is a widely used technique for analyzing vitamins, particularly water-soluble vitamins like vitamin C (ascorbic acid), B vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, etc.), and fat-soluble vitamins like vitamins A, D, E, and K. This method separates and quantifies individual vitamins based on their chemical properties. Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS):  LC-MS combines chromatography with mass spectrometry detection to analyze and quantify vitamins in food samples. It offers high sensitivity and selectivity and can be used for both water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins. UV-Visible Spectrophotometry: UV-visible spectrophotometry is commonly used for analyzing vitamin concentrations, particularly for vitamin A (retinol) and vitamin E (tocopherol), which absorb UV or visible light at specific wav...
