BackgroundCapsaicinoids are a group of compounds that give
various peppers their characteristic taste.Capsaicin is comprised of seven capsacinoids, or
closely related alkanoids.Upon contact with capsaicin, neurons in the
nociceptors in the palate become excited, emitting a perception of pain, and release local inflammatory mediators.
SHV = 16.1 million

Dihydrocapsaicin and NordihydrocapsaicinDihydrocapsaicin: accounts for 22% of total capsaicinoid
mixture. The same pungency as capsaicin. SHV = 16.1 million
Nordihydrocapsaicin: Accounts for 7% of the total capsaicinoid mixture. Half as pungent as capsaicin. SHV= 9.3 million

Scoville Heat ValueFirst brought to light by in 1912 by Wilbur
Scoville.The Scoville heat value is relative to the final
concentration of capsaicin in a compound, expressed in grams of compound per gram of sample.
The value is obtained by multiplying the literature established SHV of the pure compound by the final concentration.

Purpose of ExperimentTo quantify and determine the Scoville Heat
Value of various peppers through High Performance Liquid Chromatography.
Three alkaloids were tested: Capsaicin, Dihydrocapsaicin, and Nordihydrocapsaicin.
SHV was calculated from integrated absorbance data.

ProcedurePreparation of samples:
1000 ppm stock was made by dissolving 25 mg in 25 mL of 95% ethanol.
Serial Dilutions: (1000 ppm)(V1) = (50)(10) = .5 mL 1000 ppm stock (1000 ppm)(V1) = (40)(10) = .4 mL 1000 ppm stock (1000 ppm)(V1) = (30)(10) = .3 mL 1000 ppm stock (1000 ppm)(V1) = (20)(10) = .2 mL 1000 ppm stock (1000 ppm)(V1) = (10)(10) = .1 mL 1000 ppm stock (1000 ppm)(V1) = (5)(10) = .05 mL 1000 ppm stock (1000 ppm)(V1) = (1)(10) = .01 mL 1000 ppm stock

MethodSolutions were filtered via vacuum filtration,
brought up to volume in a 100mL Erlenmeyer flask.
Approximatley 10 uL was injected onto the column for each sample.
All standards and samples were run three times.

Discussion Calculated values were not extremely accurate, however the
pattern remained constant. Errors:
Low baseline resolution Voltage range was not constant throughout experiment Peaks were truncated
Heat of peppers could have varied based upon soil they were grown in and time of year they were harvested.
Standards and calibration curves could have been made of the Dihydrocapsaicin and Nordihydrocapsaicin, however due to high cost and limited availability, this was not practical.
Only 50mg of synthetic capsaicin was available, so only one stock solution was able to be made.

Future ExperimentsStock solution would be remade each time
standards were made and run.Dihydrocapsaicin and Nordihydrocapsaicin
calibration curves could be made.Use of a wider variety of peppers.
