Current Official Testing Methods B 1 AOAC 942.23 (Food) and 986.27 (IF) HPLC with fluorescence detection, acid hydrolysis, enzyme treatment, and pre‐column thiachrome formation. GB 5413.11, EN 14122 and BIS 5398 all employ a very similar approach as the AOAC methods with the EN method allowing for post‐column thiachrome conversion, and the BIS method also including the microbiological method option.
