National Food Safety Standard -- Determination of Lead in
Food Additives
1 Scope
This Standard specifies the limit test and quantitative test methods for lead in food
additives.
This Standard applies to the limit test and quantitative test of lead in food additives.
Method One -- Diphenylthiocarbazone (dithizone) colorimetric method
2 Principle
The specimen is treated by adding diammonium hydrogen citrate, potassium cyanide
and hydroxylamine hydrochloride to eliminate the interference of iron, copper, zinc and
other ions. At pH 8.5 ~ 9.0, lead ions and diphenylthiocarbazone (dithizone) form a red
complex. Extract with chloroform and compare with the standard series to do limit test
or quantitative test.

5 Sample processing
5.1 Preparation of inorganic specimens
The "specimen processing" of inorganic samples is measured according to the
corresponding standard methods.
5.2 Preparation of organic specimens
In addition to the corresponding standard methods for organic specimens, the
"specimen processing" is generally carried out according to the following methods:
a) Wet digestion: Weigh 5.000 g of the specimen and place it in a 250 mL conical
flask. Add 10 mL of nitric acid. After leaving it for a while (or overnight), heat it.
After the reaction has subsided, remove it and cool it. Add 5 mL of sulfuric acid
along the wall of the flask. Continue heating until the solution in the flask begins
to turn brown. Keep adding nitric acid (if necessary, add some perchloric acid)
until the organic matter is completely decomposed. Continue heating until a large
amount of white sulfur dioxide smoke is generated. The solution shall be colorless
or slightly yellow in the end. After cooling, add 20 mL of water and boil it.
Remove the remaining nitric acid until white smoke is generated. Do this twice.
Let it cool. Transfer the solution to a 50 mL volumetric flask. Wash the conical
flask 2~3 times with a small amount of water. Transfer the washing solution to
the volumetric flask. Add water to the mark. Mix well and set aside. Take the
same amount of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. At the same time, do a reagent blank
test.
b) Dry ashing method: This method is used for specimens that are not suitable for
wet digestion. Weigh 5.000 g of specimen into a porcelain crucible. Add an
appropriate amount of sulfuric acid to wet the specimen. After careful
carbonization, add 2 mL of nitric acid and 5 drops of sulfuric acid. Carefully heat
until the white smoke evaporates. Transfer to a high-temperature furnace. Ash
completely at 500°C. Take out after cooling. Add 1 mL of nitric acid solution
(1+1). Heat to dissolve the ash. Transfer the specimen solution to a 50 mL
volumetric flask (filter if necessary). Wash the crucible with a small amount of
water. Transfer the washing solution to the volumetric flask. Add water to the
mark. Mix well and set aside. Take a crucible and do a reagent blank test at the
same time.
6 Determination
6.1 Limit test
Take appropriate amount of specimen solution and standard lead solution (lead content
not less than 5 μg) and place them in 125 mL separatory funnels respectively. Add nitric
acid solution (1%) to 20 mL.
Add 1 mL of diammonium hydrogen citrate solution (500 g/L), 1 mL of hydroxylamine
hydrochloride solution (200 g/L) and two drops of phenol red indicator solution to the
specimen solution and the standard working solution of lead (1 mg/mL). Adjust to red
with ammonia solution (1+1). Add 2 mL of potassium cyanide solution (100 g/L) to
each. After mixing, add 5.0 mL of dithizone working solution. Shake vigorously for 1
min. After standing and stratification, filter the chloroform layer through absorbent
cotton into a 1 cm colorimetric cup. At a wavelength of 510 nm, adjust the zero point
with chloroform and measure the absorbance or perform visual colorimetry. The
absorbance or chromaticity of the sample solution shall not be greater than that of the
standard lead solution.
If the specimen is processed, the lead limit standard shall also be treated in the same
way.
6.2 Quantitative determination
Pipette 10.0mL (or appropriate amount) of specimen solution and the same amount of
reagent blank solution into 125 mL separatory funnels, respectively. Add 1% nitric acid
solution to each until 20 mL.
Pipette 0.0 mL, 0.1 mL, 0.3 mL, 0.5 mL, 0.7 mL, 1.0 mL (equivalent to 0 μg, 1 μg, 3
μg, 5 μg, 7 μg, 10 μg of lead, respectively) of the lead standard working solution and
place them in 125 mL separatory funnels. Add nitric acid solution (1%) to 20 mL each.
Add 1 mL of diammonium hydrogen citrate solution (500 g/L), 1 mL of hydroxylamine
hydrochloride solution (200 g/L) and two drops of phenol red indicator solution to the
sample solution, reagent blank solution and lead standard solution. Adjust to red with
ammonia solution (1+1). Add 2 mL of potassium cyanide solution (100 g/L) to each.
Mix well. Add 5.0 mL of dithizone working solution to each. Shake vigorously for 1
min. After standing for stratification, filter chloroform through absorbent cotton into a
1 cm colorimetric cup. Adjust the zero point with a zero tube at a wavelength of 510
nm and measure the absorbance. Draw a standard curve.

digestion tank) into a polytetrafluoroethylene inner tank. Add 2 mL~4 mL of nitric acid
and soak overnight. Add 2 mL~3 mL of 30% hydrogen peroxide (the total amount
cannot exceed 1/3 of the tank volume). Cover the inner cover. Tighten the stainless-
steel jacket. Put it into a constant temperature drying oven. Keep it at 120℃~140℃ for
3 h~4 h. Cool it naturally to room temperature in the oven. Wash or filter the digestion
solution into a 10 mL or 25 mL volumetric flask (depending on the salt content of the
sample after digestion). Wash the tank with water in small amounts several times.
Combine the washing solution in a volumetric flask and dilute to the mark. Mix well
for later use. Perform a reagent blank test at the same time.

Add 10.0 mL of nitric acid and 2.0 mL of hydrogen peroxide (30%). Mix well. Digest
in a microwave digestion instrument. Recommended digestion conditions are shown in
Annex A. After digestion is completed, cool naturally to room temperature. Open the
lid to remove acid. Wash or filter the digestion solution into a 10 mL~25 mL volumetric
flask (depending on the salt content of the sample after digestion). Wash the tank with
water in small amounts several times. Combine the washing solution in a volumetric
flask and dilute to the mark. Mix well and set aside. Perform a reagent blank test at the
same time.

content) into a porcelain crucible. First, carbonize on an adjustable electric hot plate
with low heat until smokeless. Transfer to a muffle furnace and ash for 6 h~8 h at 500℃.
Cool. If the individual samples are not completely ashed, add 1 mL of mixed acid and
heat on an adjustable electric furnace with low heat. Repeat several times until digestion
is complete. Remove and cool. Dissolve the ash with nitric acid solution (0.5 mol/L).
Wash or filter the specimen digestion solution into a 10 mL or 25 mL volumetric flask
(depending on the salt content of the sample after digestion). Wash the porcelain
crucible with water in small amounts several times. Combine the washing solution in a
volumetric flask and dilute to the mark. Mix well for later use. Perform a reagent blank
test at the same time.
13.1.4 Wet digestion: Weigh 1.000 g~5.000 g of the specimen into a conical flask or a
tall beaker. Put a few glass beads. Add 10 mL of mixed acid (or add 1 mL~2 mL of
nitric acid). Cover and soak overnight. Add a small funnel and digest on an electric
stove. If it turns brown-black, add more mixed acid until white smoke comes out. The
digestion liquid is colorless and transparent or slightly yellow. Remove and cool. Wash
or filter the digestion liquid into (depending on the salt content of the specimen after
digestion) a 10 mL or 25 mL volumetric flask. Wash with water in small amounts
several times. Combine the washing liquid in the volumetric flask. Make up to the mark.
