An on-line method to detect and quantify antioxidant species in complex extracts has been developed as a combination of conventional HPLC separation and a postcolumn reaction with phosphomolybdenum reagent at acidic pH. Sample analytes were chromatographed by HPLC, and the postcolumn formation of a phosphate/Mo(V) complex was detected at 598 nm with an on-line absorbance detector. An optimized instrumental system was set up using pure alpha-tocopherol, and it was successfully tested with complex food extracts including lettuce, tomato, red pepper, and soybean seed, where several tocopherols and carotenoids were identified. A potential application of this detection method to quantitatively determine different antioxidants was considered, and a specific application to the determination of tocopherols was developed. The new method was characterized with respect to linearity interval, repeatability, and reproducibility, the quantitative results obtained were validated by comparison with a conventional HPLC method with fluorometric detection, and it was applied to the determination of tocopherols in different foods. The results suggest that the proposed on-line HPLC method can be a powerful instrument for the detection, purification, and characterization of natural antioxidants.
