Abstract:

Based on the similarity of the fluorescence properties of three estrogens, a new fluorescence method for direct determination of the total amount of three estrogens(estradiol, estriol, ethinyloestradiol) in milk powder was developed. Taking estriol as the standard reference material, the standard curve method was adopted. The fluorescence intensity of estriol has a linear relationship with the concentration in the range of 1.00~2000 nmol/L and the detection limit of 0.16 nmol/L. The recovery is in the range of 89.11%~98.49%. This method is simple, rapid, highly accurate and sensitive and has been successfully applied to determine the total estrogens in milk powder with satisfactory results.
