摘要: The aim of the present study was to analyze folate content and composition in foods consumed daily by Chinese people. The concentration of seven folate derivatives in sixty-four selected foods was determined by a liquid-chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry method. The total folate levels ranged from 0.28 to 129 mu g/100 g fresh weight, with an average of 21.18 mu g/100 g. The highest folate content was found in boiled egg yolk and waxy corn (>120 mu g/100 g), abundant folate levels in cooked vegetables such as hot pepper, spinach, soybean sprout, stem lettuce, coriander, and broccoli (44-72 mu g/100 g), and lowest in Coca Cola (0.28 mu g/100 g). 5-Methyl-tetrahydrofolate was the major folate derivative in various foods, accounting for 72% of the total folates on average, with the highest being 90% in egg yolk. These data will enable estimation of the daily folate intake and allow dietary recommendations to improve folate status in humans.
