Applications of a Chemiluminescent Nitrogen HPLC Detector to the Analysis of Soy Bean Products PittCon 2004Chicago, IL Mark E. Homan, R&D Chemist
Examples of Commercially Available Soy Sauce Products • Chinese Style • (made primarily from soy beans) • Japanese Style Tamari • (made primarily from soy beans) • Japanese Style Shoyu • (made from equal mix of soy and wheat) • Japanese Style Shiro • (made primarily wheat) • Non-brewed and Semi-brewed • (soy acid hydrolysate) • Teriyaki (soy sauce principle flavor component) • Worcestershire(added as flavor component) • Dipping and traditional Western style sauces
Naturally Brewed Soy Sauce soy beans cooking roasting wheat aspergillus oryzae starter culture Koji fermentation 2-3 days Moromi fermentation 18-20% brine solution, second culture added lactic acid bacteria and yeast 3-12 months press filter pasteurization bottling
Chemically Processed Soy Sauce defatted, soy bean flakes hydrochloric acid hydrolysis 3-24 hours soy bean hydrolysate + salt, corn syrup, caramel coloring, ethyl alcohol pasturization bottling
Compounds in Traditionally Brewed Soy Sauce soy beans + whole wheat fermentation amino acids + peptides sugars color components (i.e. melanin) alcohols aroma components organic acids
Antek Model 8060Chemiluminescent Nitrogen Detector(CLND) • Proteins, peptides and amino acids contain nitrogen • Detector responds only to chemically bound nitrogen • Detector response is directly proportional to the total amount of nitrogen in sample • Calibration with as few as one standard • Total nitrogen or speciated detection modes • Stand alone operation or as a part of a multiple detector system
Samples Sample Type Production Method Soy bean hydrolysate powder Acid Hydrolysis Store Label Brand Acid Hydrolysis Chinese Dark (wheat + soy) Fermentation Japanese Shoyu (wheat + soy) Fermentation Japanese Tamari (mostly soy) Fermentation Teriyaki (wheat and soy) Fermentation Worcestershire (wheat and soy) Unknown
