Animal feeding stuffs - Determination of amino acids content

ISO 13903:2005 describes the determination of free (synthetic and natural) and total (peptide-bound and free) amino acids in feeding stuffs, using an amino acid analyser or HPLC equipment. It is applicable to the following amino acids: sum of cystine and cysteine; methionine; lysine; threonine; alanine; arginine; aspartic acid; glutamic acid; glycine; histidine; isoleucine; leucine; phenylalanine; proline; serine; tyrosine; valine.The method does not distinguish between the salts of amino acids, nor does it differentiate between D and L forms of amino acids. It is not valid for the determination of tryptophan or hydroxy analogues of amino acids.Limits of quantification depend on the chromatographic equipment, but levels as low as: 0,3 g/kg total lysine; 0,25 g/kg total methionine; 0,35 g/kg total cystine plus cysteine; 0,2 g/kg total threonine; 0,035g/kg free lysine; 0,035g/kg free methionine; and 0,03g/kg free threonine can typically be analysed.

Animal feeding stuffs - Determination of amino acids content

ISO 13903:2005 describes the determination of free (synthetic and natural) and total (peptide-bound and free) amino acids in feeding stuffs, using an amino acid analyser or HPLC equipment. It is applicable to the following amino acids: sum of cystine and cysteine; methionine; lysine; threonine; alanine; arginine; aspartic acid; glutamic acid; glycine; histidine; isoleucine; leucine; phenylalanine; proline; serine; tyrosine; valine.

The method does not distinguish between the salts of amino acids, nor does it differentiate between D and L forms of amino acids. It is not valid for the determination of tryptophan or hydroxy analogues of amino acids.

Limits of quantification depend on the chromatographic equipment, but levels as low as: 0,3 g/kg total lysine; 0,25 g/kg total methionine; 0,35 g/kg total cystine plus cysteine; 0,2 g/kg total threonine; 0,035g/kg free lysine; 0,035g/kg free methionine; and 0,03g/kg free threonine can typically be analysed.

Le présent document prescrit une méthode d'analyse générale pour le dosage des acides aminés communs, à l'exception du tryptophane. Cette méthode ne permet pas de différencier les formes D et L, ni les sels d'acides aminés, ni de déterminer les analogues hydroxylés de ces acides aminés.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
