We established an analytical method for the detection of seven phthalates, dimethyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate (DEP), benzyl butyl phthalate, di-i-butyl phthalate, dibutyl phthalate (DBP), diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), and di-n-octhyl phthalate, using an ultra high performance liquid chromatograph equipped with a photodiode array detector. This method is quick, with minimal contamination, and was applied to the analysis of aromatic and deodorant aerosol products. Phthalates were detected in 15 of 52 samples purchased from 1999 to 2012 in Yokohama. Three types of phthalate (DEP, DBP, DEHP) were detected, and their concentrations ranged from 0.0085-0.23% DEP in nine samples, 0.012-0.045% DBP in four samples, and 0.012-0.033% DEHP in four samples. No other phthalate esters were detected. Furthermore, we estimated phthalate exposure via breathing in commonly used aromatic and deodorant aerosol products, then evaluated the associated risk. The estimated levels of phthalate exposure were lower than the tolerated daily limit, but the results indicated that aromatic and deodorant aerosol products could be a significant source of phthalate exposure.

To verify the presence of yohimbine and its four stereoisomers (corynanthine, α-yohimbine, β-yohimbine, and isorauhimbine) in health food and to perform a quantitative analysis, we examined the separation and detection conditions for each component by GC-MS and LC-UV-MS. As a result, in GC-MS analysis, baseline separation of all five components (yohimbine and its four stereoisomers) was achieved with a mid-polar column. However, the presence of a water desorption peak due to heating, calibration curves with poor linearity, and low recovery rates suggested that the use of GC-MS for quantitative analysis required further consideration. On the other hand, in LC-UV-MS analysis, baseline separation of all the five components was possible when a mixture of ammonium bicarbonate buffer and acetonitrile was used as the mobile phase. In addition, calibration curves showed adequate linearity with good recovery rates. On the basis of these results, we decided to employ the analytical condition by LC-UVMS. Using this method, we analyzed commercial health food to determine the actual contents of yohimbine and its stereoisomers, and identified food products in which only yohimbine was detected, as well as those in which yohimbine and its four stereoisomers were detected. Furthermore, we found at a high frequency food products in which corynanthine and α-yohimbine were detected at higher concentrations than yohimbine.
