Abstract
Capsaicin, dihydrocapsaicin and nordihydrocapsaicin were determined in paprika powders and oleoresins after clean-up on silica and aluminium oxide with controlled activity followed by isocratic reverse phase HP LC (RP-HPLC) with fluorescence detection. Caprylic acid vanillylamide (CVA) was synthesized for use as internal standard. Samples with less than 0.6 mu g/g (10 Scoville Heat Units) were analysed.
