Radioimmunoassay of deoxynivalenol in wheat and corn   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  
With the availability of antibody against deoxynivalenol triacetate (DON-triacetate), a radioimmunoassay (RIA) for DON in wheat was developed. DON is extracted from the sample with acetonitrile-water (84 + 16), defatted with hexane, and then reacted with acetic anhydride to form DON-triacetate. The reaction mixture is loaded onto a C-18 cartridge to remove excess reagents and impurities. Acetylated DON is eluted from the cartridge with 50% methanol in water, and then analyzed by radioimmunoassay utilizing antiserum against DON-triacetate and tritiated DON-triacetate. Overall recovery for DON added to wheat between 50 and 5000 ppb was 86% with a standard deviation of 7% and coefficient of variation of 8%. The limit of detection for DON was about 20 ppb. Analysis of 12 naturally contaminated wheat, corn, and mixed feed samples for DON revealed that RIA results agreed well with thin layer chromatographic analyses performed by other laboratories.  相似文献

The present paper describes an enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) used in combination with thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and liquid chromatography (LC) for determination of fusarochromanone (TDP) mycotoxins in barley, wheat, and a Fusarium culture grown in rice and corn. The mycotoxins were first extracted from the sample with 100% methanol and subjected to TLC or LC without additional cleanup treatment. Individual fractions eluted from TLC or LC were acetylated, then analyzed by ELISA. Determinations of TDP toxins at levels as low as 0.1 and 0.5 ng were achieved by ELISA in combination with LC and TLC, respectively. The detection limit for TDP-1 in barley and wheat was about 20 ppb by ELISA alone as compared with a detection limit of 5 ppb by a combination of ELISA with either TLC or LC. Overall analytical recovery (% of added) of TDP-1 added to barley and wheat at 5, 10, and 20 ppb of TDP-1 was 106.9 +/- 15.3 and 113.2 +/- 11.6 by LC-ELISA and 108.8 +/- 9.1 and 110.4 +/- 4.9 by TLC-ELISA, respectively. Analysis of extracts obtained from Fusarium equiseti R6137 grown in corn and rice by the combination of TLC and ELISA revealed that diacetyl-TDP was also produced by this fungus in addition to TDP-1 and TDP-2. Comparable results were obtained when fungal extracts were subjected to ELISA, LC, and immunochromatography (i.e., combination of ELISA with either TLC or LC).  相似文献

An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of HT-2 toxin in the presence or absence of T-2 toxin is described. In the indirect ELISA, the relative cross-reactivities of antibodies against T-2 toxin (anti-T-2) with T-2 toxin and HT-2 toxin were 1 and 0.1, whereas anti-HT-2 cross-reactivities with T-2 toxin and HT-2 toxin were 0.33 and 1, respectively. Using such relationships, a formula was established that could be used to calculate the individual toxin concentration in a mixed sample after experimentally analyzing for T-2 and HT-2 toxins in the 2 indirect ELISAs. This method was tested by analyzing urine samples spiked with HT-2 toxin alone and samples spiked with both T-2 toxin and HT-2 toxin. A cleanup protocol for treatment of urine samples before ELISA was also established. The overall analytical recovery of HT-2 toxin when it was added at concentrations of 0.1-10 parts per billion (ppb) to the urine samples was ca 89%. When both T-2 and HT-2 toxins were added to the urine samples at equal concentrations of 0.5 to 5.0 ppb, their recoveries were 112 and 109%, respectively.  相似文献

Monensin is converted to monensin bromoacetate, which provides successful coupling to protein and allows production of monensin-specific rabbit antisera. A modified indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed, which is highly sensitive (2 ng/mL) to monensin determination. Monensin recovery was 53-81% at 10 ppb in sera or urine, and 81-130% at 100 ppb in dichloromethane-extracted feces or water. Overall recovery was 98.8% with coefficients of variation from 6 to 52% over the range of monensin concentrations studied. This is the first immunoassay reported for the carboxylic ionophore antibiotics.  相似文献

An improved enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for aflatoxin B1 in cornmeal and peanut butter was developed. Aflatoxin B1 in cornmeal and peanut butter samples was extracted with 70% methanol in water containing 1% dimethylformamide diluted with assay buffer to a final concentration of 7.0% methanol, and directly subjected to an ELISA procedure that took less than 1 h for quantitative analysis and less than 30 min for screening tests. Analytical recoveries for 5-100 ppb B1 added to the cornmeal and peanut butter were 91 and 95.4%, respectively. The interwell and interassay coefficient of variation was 10% or less at the 20 ppb level and above. Agreement for B1 levels in more than 30 naturally contaminated corn, mixed feed, and peanut butter samples was excellent between the ELISA data and the data obtained from different independent laboratories using TLC or other analytical methods.  相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for fipronil was developed by using polyclonal antibodies (pABs) or monoclonal antibodies (mABs), and its suitability of the determination of this analyte in spiked water samples was studied. The pABs-based assay showed I50 = 17.95 ppb, I90 = 203.40 ppb, and I10 = 0.066 ppb, whereas the mABs-based assay showed I50 = 5.99 ppb, I90 = 485.40 ppb, and I10 = 0.074 ppb. The recoveries of fipronil from tap water samples by pABs-based ELISA were 93.00-124.00% in the range of 0-500 ng/mL, and those obtained from the samples by mABs-based ELISA were 94.70-108.00%. Different types of water from pool, river, and sea were spiked at different levels (ranging form 0.1 to 10 microg/L) and were assayed by the indirect ELISA with mABs. The recoveries of fipronil by this ELISA were in the range of 80-120%. The results demonstrate that this assay is suitable for the quantitative detection of fipronil at trace levels in water samples.  相似文献

A stability-indicating liquid chromatographic method is presented for determining sulfamethoxazole in tablets. The method uses a 10 micron silica column, an isooctane-methylene chloride-2-propanol-acetonitrile-glacial acetic acid (70 + 25 + 5 + 5 + 0.5) mobile phase, and photometric detection at 254 nm. Seven laboratories collaboratively studied this method on powdered composite samples prepared from commercial 500 and 1000 mg tablets and on an authentic tablet mixture containing 83.32% added sulfamethoxazole. Mean assay results for the 500 and 1000 mg tablets were 102.2 and 97.9% of declared, respectively (n = 4). The mean recovery value for the synthetic sample was 99.4% (n = 4). The pooled reproducibility standard deviation (SD) (coefficient of variation (CV)) and pooled repeatability SD (CV) were +/- 1.01 (1.01%) and +/- 0.96 (0.96%), respectively. These results were in good agreement with those obtained by the Associate Referee for the titration method of USP XX. The proposed method can also be used for monitoring the presence of sulfanilamide in sulfamethoxazole by increasing the proportions of both acetonitrile and 2-propanol in the mobile phase. The method has been adopted official first action.  相似文献

A collaborative study of a rapid method for the determination of deoxynivalenol (DON) in winter wheat was successfully completed. The method involves sample extraction with acetonitrile-water (84 + 16), cleanup using a disposable column of charcoal, Celite, and alumina, and detection by thin layer chromatography after spraying with an aluminum chloride solution. Each of the 15 collaborators analyzed 12 samples, 2 of which were naturally contaminated, and 10 to which DON was added, in duplicate, at levels of 0, 50, 100, 300, and 1000 ng/g. Average recoveries of DON ranged from 78 to 96% with repeatabilities of 30-64% and reproducibilities of 33-87%. The results of the study show that false positives were not a problem and that all of the analysts could detect DON at the 300 ng/g level or higher. The method has been adopted official first action.  相似文献

A gas chromatographic (GC) method is described to determine deoxynivalenol in wheat and corn at levels as low as 20 ppb. Ground samples are extracted with water, adsorbed onto a Clin Elut column, extracted with ethyl acetate, and passed through a silica gel Sep-Pak cartridge. The final extract is then derivatized with N-heptafluorobutyrylimidazole and quantitated by GC using an electron capture detector. Recoveries are greater than 85% for spiked samples at levels of 50-1000 ppb. Results for wheat, corn, and mixed feed samples are given as well as the results of an interlaboratory study on a naturally contaminated wheat sample.  相似文献

Polyclonal antibodies for microcystin-leucine-arginine (MCYST-LR) were generated from rabbits after immunizing the animals with MCYST-LR conjugated with gamma-globulin. A competitive direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cdELISA) and a competitive indirect ELISA (ciELISA) were used for the characterization of the antibodies and for analysis of the toxin in algal cultures and dietary supplements. The concentrations causing 50% inhibition (IC(50)) of binding of MCYST-horseradish peroxidase (MCYST-HRP) to the solid-phase antibodies by MCYST-LR, MCYST-arginine-arginine variant (MCYST-RR), MCYST-tyrosine-arginine variant (MCYST-YR), and nodularin (NODLN) in the cdELISA were found to be 0.10, 0.12, 0.14, and 0.20 ng/mL, respectively. In the presence of algae matrix, the detection limit is less than 10 ppb. The overall analytical recovery of MCYST-LR (25 to 500 ng/g) added to the algal dietary supplements and then extracted with 0.1 M ammonium bicarbonate in the cdELISA was found to be 83.7%. Analysis of MCYSTs in algal cultures and dietary supplements showed that six of eleven cultures produce MCYSTs, and five of the algal cultures were not MCYST producers. Eight of eleven tested commercial algal dietary supplements contained MCYSTs at a level lower than 100 ppb. The presence of MCYST-LR in the Microcystis aeruginosa culture was confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography.  相似文献

A method is presented for determination of residues of gentian violet (GV), its demethylated metabolites (pentamethyl and tetramethyl), and leucogentian violet (LGV) in chicken tissue. The analytes are extracted from tissue with acetonitrile/buffer and partitioned into methylene chloride. Polar lipids are removed on an alumina column followed by partitioning into methylene chloride from a citrate buffer. The compounds of interest are isolated on a disposable carboxylic acid cation exchange column and then eluted with 0.02% HCl in methanol. GV, its metabolites, and LGV are determined by liquid chromatography using isocratic elution with a buffered mobile phase from a cyano column and amperometric electrochemical detection at +1.000 V. Average recoveries of GV and LGV from commercially purchased chicken liver fortified with 20 ppb of each compound were 92% [standard deviation (SD) = 7, coefficient of variation (CV) = 7.6%] and 86% (SD = 7, CV = 8.1%), respectively. Average recoveries of GV, LGV, the pentamethyl metabolite, and 1 of the tetramethyl metabolites from control chicken liver (provided by the Center for Veterinary Medicine) fortified with 20 ppb of each compound were 80% (SD = 7, CV = 8.8%), 76% (SD = 3, CV = 3.9%), 83% (SD = 6, CV = 7.2%), and 76% (SD = 8, CV = 10.5%), respectively. Mean results from 10 analyses of residue-incurred chicken liver were 31 ppb GV (SD = 3, CV = 9.7%), 34 ppb pentamethyl metabolite (SD = 3, CV = 8.8%), and 40 ppb tetramethyl metabolite(s) (SD = 2, CV = 5.0%), for an average value of 105 ppb total residues (SD = 6, CV = 5.7%); no LGV was found. Data are also presented to show applicability of the method to muscle tissue.  相似文献

Aflatoxin B1 (B1), T-2 toxin (T2), and ochratoxin A (OA) were assayed in a single extract from barley grain by using competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) with monoclonal antibodies. B1 and T2 monoclonal antibodies were conjugated to horseradish peroxidase for direct competitive ELISA while an indirect competitive ELISA was used for OA determination. The competitive ELISA detected 0.1 ng/mL of B1, 10 ng/mL of T2, or 1 ng/mL of OA. Acetonitrile-0.5% KCl-6% H2SO4 (89 + 10 + 1) extracts of barley grain either were diluted 1:10 for direct assay or were subjected to a simple liquid-liquid cleanup procedure to concentrate the extract 10:1 before assay. For cleanup, water was added to the acetonitrile extract to partition water-soluble interfering substances, and then the mycotoxins were re-extracted with chloroform. The chloroform extract was evaporated to dryness and redissolved in Tris HCl buffer for ELISA. The mean recoveries from barley spiked with 4-60 ng/g of B1, 50-5000 ng/g of T2, and 5-500 ng/g of OA were, respectively, 93.8, 80.6, and 95.8%. The mean within-assay, inter-assay, and subsample coefficients of variation by ELISA of barley grain colonized with toxigenic fungi were less than 12% for B1 and OA but as high as 17% for T2.  相似文献

A limited survey was conducted over a 2-year period to determine the incidence and levels of deoxynivalenol (DON) in corn and wheat grown in selected areas of the United States. Samples of corn (198) and wheat (247) were collected and analyzed by a gas chromatographic method. Sixty-six percent of the corn samples collected in 1984 and 30% of the corn samples collected in 1985 contained DON. The average concentration of DON in corn, by state, ranged from 0.11 to 1.20 micrograms/g; the maximum concentration was 2.47 micrograms/g. Only 2 of the 247 samples of wheat contained DON at a concentration greater than 2 micrograms/g, which is the level of concern suggested by the Food and Drug Administration for wheat entering the milling process for human consumption.  相似文献

A sensitive and accurate detection method is of great importance in monitoring fusaproliferin levels in foods and animal feeds and evaluating its potential hazard to human and animal health. Several methods have been developed to detect fusaproliferin in cereals and cereal-related products, including thin-layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (MS), gas chromatography (GC), and GC-MS. However, these detection methods either suffer from low sensitivity, need expensive instruments, or are susceptible to interfering substances in the sample matrix. The GC-flame ionization detector method developed herein is sensitive, reliable, and easy to use for detecting fusaproliferin in corn and corn-based samples. Its detection limits were 0.04 ng for standard trimethylsilyl-fusaproliferin and about 5 ppb for fusaproliferin in corn samples. The limits of quantitation of this method were 0.15 ng fusaproliferin/injection and 20 ppb of fusaproliferin in corn samples. The recovery rates of fusaproliferin from corn samples spiked with 200, 1000, and 5000 ppb standard fusaproliferin were 109, 85.7, and 98.9% on average. The repeatability of the method was acceptable when evaluated by the Horwitz equation. Of the tested corn samples, three out of five sweet corn and the three yellow corn samples were found to have low levels of fusaproliferin (9.4-45.3 ppb). A moldy corn sample had a fusaproliferin content of 297 ppb.  相似文献

beta-Cyclodextrin enhances the fluorescence of aflatoxins B1 and G1 in aqueous systems. This effect was utilized in developing a unique reverse-phase liquid chromatographic (LC) method for determination of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2 (B1 detection limit 1 ppb), without preparing derivatives of B1 and G1. The aflatoxins are dissolved in methanol or the mobile phase for injection onto the LC system. Using a mobile phase of methanol-beta-cyclodextrin (1 + 1), the aflatoxins are resolved on a C18 column. Fluorescence of the aflatoxins is enhanced by post-column introduction of an aqueous concentrated beta-cyclodextrin solution. All 4 aflatoxins elute within 10 min in the order G2, G1, B2, B1. Fluorescence responses for B1 and G1 standards were linear over the concentration range 0.5-10 ng, yielding correlation coefficients (r) of 0.9989 and 1.000, respectively. The average peak response ratio for G1:B1 for the mobile phase-enhancement solution described was 0.765 with a coefficient of variation (CV) of 0.98%. CVs were 6.2, 9.0, and 7.5% for multiple assays of aflatoxin B1 in 3 samples of naturally contaminated corn. For samples of corn spiked to a total B1 content of 8.3 ng/g, average B1 recovery was 90% (CV 11.7%).  相似文献

A rapid screening procedure based on the selective adsorption of deoxynivalenol (DON) from extracts of wheat and corn has been developed. DON is extracted from the sample with acetonitrile-water (85 + 15) and partially purified on a preparative minicolumn. Solvent is evaporated and the residue is dissolved in toluene-acetone (95 + 5) and chromatographed on a novel detector minicolumn which selectively adsorbs DON. A blue fluorescence is produced when the column is heated 5 min at 100 degrees C. The procedure is capable of detecting DON at greater than or equal to 500 ng/g. Forty-three wheat samples, contaminated with DON at 60-6300 ng/g, were assayed by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) of the heptafluorobutyryl derivative of DON and by the selective adsorption procedure. Comparison of results showed 91% agreement between data from the 2 methods. Selective adsorption assays were positive for all samples that were greater than or equal to 500 ng/g by GC-MS (no false negatives) and were negative for 85% of samples less than 500 ng/g (4/27 false positives). These four samples contained greater than 200 ng/g by GC-MS. Samples of wheat (64), corn (23), soybeans (8), and sorghum (6) were extracted and extracts were assayed by thin-layer chromatography and the selective adsorption procedure. Selective adsorption assays agreed with TLC results.  相似文献

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for microcystins in blue-green algal blooms   总被引：18，自引：0，他引：18  
A direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the freshwater blue-green algal toxin microcystin (MCYST) in algae and water was developed. The assay involves coating anti-MCYST-variant leucine-arginine (LR) antibody to the ELISA plate and the use of MCYST-LR-peroxidase as the enzyme marker. The linear portion of the standard curve for MCYST in phosphate buffer containing saline (PBS) was 0.5-10.0 ng/mL (25-500 pg/assay). The minimum detection level for MCYST-LR was 0.20 ng/mL (10 pg/assay). Contaminated water could be directly used in the ELISA. The overall analytical recoveries for MCYST-LR added to water at levels of 1-20 ng/mL was 83.4%. For analysis of cellular MCYST, the toxin was first extracted from the algae with 0.1M ammonium bicarbonate, diluted with PBS to less than 0.5 mg dried algae/mL (less than 5.0 mg wet weight/mL) and directly used in the ELISA. C-18 reverse-phase Sep-Pak cartridges effectively adsorbed MCYST from the toxin-containing solutions. The toxin could be recovered from the cartridge by eluting with 60% methanol. Using this approach, an algae extract that was relatively free of MCYST was prepared and was used in a recovery study. The overall analytical recovery of MCYST added to the algae extract in the range of 0.25-20 ppm was 83% with a coefficient of variation of 11.9%. The detection limit for MCYST in dried algae was about 0.25-0.5 microgram/g (0.25-0.5 ppm) lyophilized algae sample. This method was applied for the analysis of several naturally occurring algal blooms. Limited samples were also analyzed for MYCST by liquid chromatography.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Citreoviridin, a neurotoxic mycotoxin, has been found as a natural contaminant in corn left unharvested in the southeastern United States and in rice of several Asian countries, including Japan. A reliable analytical method for the quantitative determination of citreoviridin in corn and rice is described. Corn or rice is extracted with dichloromethane, and the extract is partially purified on silica and amino solid-phase extraction (SPE) columns. The extract is analyzed for citreoviridin by normal-phase liquid chromatography, using a mobile phase of ethyl acetate-hexane (75 + 25) at 1.5 mL/min and a fluorescence detector to measure the yellow fluorescence (388 nm excitation, 480 nm emission). With a 100 microL injection loop, the relationship between concentration and injection volume is linear for 20-60 microL injections. Recoveries of citreoviridin added to yellow corn at 10-50 ng/g were 91.0-96.9%; recoveries from white corn (10-50 ng/g added) were 96.8-102.8%. Recoveries of 5000 ng/g added to white corn were 89.0%, indicating that heavily contaminated samples can be assayed by the method. Minimum detection limits were 10 ng for citreoviridin standard and 2 ng/g for citreoviridin added to corn. White rice fermented with Penicillium citreo-viride (1524 ppm) was mixed with and serially diluted with uncontaminated ground corn to obtain citreoviridin-contaminated corn (ca 25 ppb). When the samples were assayed by the method, a mean level of 24.4 +/- 1.65 ppb (6.5% coefficient of variation) was obtained. Four fermented rice food samples and 3 commercial rice samples were investigated.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

A study was conducted to evaluate the performance of 2 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) for rapidly screening samples of peanuts for the presence of aflatoxin. The EZ-Screen Quick Card Test and the Afla-10 Cup Test were compared with liquid chromatography in duplicate analyses of common extracts of peanuts contaminated in the range of 0-70 ppb (ng/g). Each assay properly identified 95% of samples containing no detectable aflatoxin as negative and greater than 97% of samples containing greater than 10 ppb aflatoxin as positive. The card test, which had a 20 ppb detection threshold, identified as positive 32 of 34 samples in the 11-20 ppb range. This indicates that the card test might actually have a detection threshold closer to 10 ppb. Most of the errors associated with the assays occurred on samples containing less than 10 ppb aflatoxin. The cup and card tests identified 76 and 67% of the samples, respectively, as negative, in the range of 4-10 ppb. For samples either negative or contaminated above their detection thresholds for the assays, the methods are well suited for use as rapid screening tests.  相似文献

An immunoenzymatic method for the quantitative determination of dietary lectin activities employing immobilized glycoproteins was studied. Lectins from wheat germ (WGA), peanut (PNA), and jack bean (ConA) were added to microtiter plates coated with ovalbumin or asialofetuin and quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with lectin-specific antibodies. ELISA responses for lectin activity were dose-dependent in the concentration range 30-1000 ng/mL for WGA and 80-1000 ng/mL for both PNA and ConA. Inhibition assays carried out with different saccharides confirmed that the binding of lectins to immobilized glycoproteins was specific. The proposed method is specific and sensitive, allowing the quantitative determination of lectin activities on raw samples by simple dilution of the extracts. Examples of application to wheat germ and roasted peanut extracts are reported.  相似文献
