This study introduces an automated solid-phase extraction (SPE) method for efficiently concentrating and purifying soy isoflavone extracts. The optimized method achieves high recovery rates and reproducibility, offering a rapid and specific solution for isoflavone analysis.

Area of Science:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Food Science
  • Natural Product Chemistry

Background:

  • Soy isoflavones are valuable compounds with potential health benefits.
  • Efficient extraction and purification methods are crucial for accurate analysis of isoflavones.
  • Existing methods may lack speed, specificity, or reproducibility.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and optimize an automated solid-phase extraction (SPE) method for soy isoflavone analysis.
  • To evaluate and compare the performance of various SPE cartridges and parameters.
  • To establish a fast, specific, quantitative, and reproducible method for isoflavone clean-up and concentration.

Main Methods:

  • Evaluation of eight SPE cartridges with different sorbents (C18, divinylbenzene).

  • Optimization of key extraction parameters including sample loading flow rate, solvent volume, and pH.
  • Development of a standardized protocol involving conditioning, loading, washing, and elution steps.

    • Main Results:

    • Divinylbenzene-based cartridges (Strata X, HLB oasis) demonstrated superior performance.
    • Optimized method achieved a 6.25:1 sample clean-up/concentration ratio.
    • Mean isoflavone recovery was 99.37% with intra- and inter-day reproducibility exceeding 98%.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed automated SPE method is highly effective for soy isoflavone analysis.
    • The method is fast (under 10 minutes), specific, quantitative, and reproducible.
    • This technique provides a robust solution for sample preparation in isoflavone research and quality control.
