A simultaneous analysis of reducing sugars and 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde of the Maillard reaction products was detailed. It was based on a high performance anion exchange chromatography with electrochemical detector system and an HPLC with refractive index detector. Results showed that high performance anion exchange chromatography with electrochemical detector using a CarboPac PA-1 column (Dionex Corp., Sunnyvale, CA) was more suitable for reducing sugars and 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde determination, especially for trace analysis. The lowest detectable limit of reducing sugars and 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde was 0.00005mol/L in this experiment. However, HPLC with a refractive index detector always produces a tailing peak for 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde, and mannose and fructose cannot be absolutely separated. The results of the present study could provide a more sensitive means for 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde and reducing sugar detection.
