Trace Metal Analysis<br />
• Typically, FDA establishes if a trace metal is limited for use in a<br />
food and/or beverage:<br />
– Industry Circular 91-11 sets a tolerance of 300 ppb lead in wine<br />
– 27 CFR 24.246 sets a tolerance of 500 ppb copper in wine<br />
• If fined with copper sulfate<br />
– Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry<br />
• Direct analysis (dilute and shoot)<br />
• Low ppb LOQ<br />
• High throughput<br />
• Able to scan for 53 elements in one sequence<br />
• If <strong>TTB</strong> analyzes a sample, and the concentration of a trace<br />
metal appears to be high, we ask FDA for a health hazard<br />
