Ensuring that the vitamin content of products is consistent with the label claim isn’t just good practice – it’s a regulatory requirement. Waters recognizes the crucial role that rapid, reliable, and cost-effective analytical methods play in accurately monitoring nutritional content and ensuring compliance with product labels.
Waters vitamin solutions enable food and beverage testing laboratories to create efficient testing methods, supporting manufacturers in:

Reduce non-specific adsorption from metal interactions in HPLC and UHPLC applications and obtain higher quality, reproducible data with the Arc Premier System.
Minimize metal-sensitive analyte loss and improve recovery with the ACQUITY Premier System for ultra-performance liquid chromatography analysis.
Get the flexibility of quaternary or binary solvent blending and decrease your time to result with the ACQUITY UPLC H-Class PLUS System to improve the characterization of your most complex samples.
Address routine and complex separation challenges while delivering reliability, robustness, sensitivity, and increased throughput of convergence chromatography techniques with the ACQUITY UPC2 System.
Replicate and improve the performance of your existing LC vitamin analysis methods without compromising data quality with Arc HPLC System.
Reduce human errors, HPLC system downtime, and generate consistent global method performance with the Alliance iS HPLC System to multiply the productivity and efficiency of your QC lab.
Minimize the risk of unexpected coelutions or components and confirm trace-components with certainty with the ACQUITY QDa II Mass Detector and enhance the analytical value of each analysis.
Significant improvements in peak shape and sensitivity of vitamin B chromatograms are observed using the ACQUITY Premier LC system and column with MaxPeak HPS Technology (green traces) compared to the stainless steel setup (red traces). (A) demonstrates these enhancements from the initial injections, while (B) shows the sustained benefits after extensive system use.
Mass detection enables the detection of vitamins at low levels, as demonstrated by the SIR chromatogram of vitamin B12 using the ACQUITY QDa Mass Detector (A), compared to the UV chromatogram (B).
The stereoisomers of all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate were separated into two main peaks, while RRR-α-tocopheryl acetate showed a single sharp peak within 15 minutes on an ACQUITY UPC² System, offering a reliable method to differentiate between natural and synthetic vitamin E.
