Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for T-2 toxin metabolites in urine   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
A direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for determination of total T-2 toxin metabolites in urine was developed. The assay involves coating anti-3-acetyl-neosolaniol-hemisuccinate-bovine serum albumin conjugate (anti-3-Ac-NEOS-HS-BSA) antibody to the ELISA plate and using 3-Ac-NEOS-HS-peroxidase as the enzyme marker. Competitive ELISA revealed that the antibody had good cross-reactivity with acetyldiacetoxyscirpenol (Ac-DAS), T-2 tetraol tetraacetate, 3'-OH-Ac-T-2, 3-Ac-NEOS, and 3,4,15-triacetyl-12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-en-8-one (Ac-T-2-8-one), but less cross-reactivity with Ac-T-2 toxin and T-2 toxin. All metabolites of T-2 toxin in urine were converted to T-2 tetraol tetraacetate (T-2-4ol-4Ac) by acetylation of the sample extract before ELISA. To test the ELISA accuracy, a radioimmunoassay (RIA) was performed simultaneously. The linear portion of the standard curve of this direct ELISA for T-2-4ol-4Ac was 0.2-2.0 ng/mL, which was 10 times more sensitive than RIA. The minimum detection level for T-2-4ol-4Ac was 0.02 ng/mL (0.4 pg/assay) in the absence of urine sample. The overall analytical recoveries for T-2 toxin, HT-2, T-2-4ol, 3'-OH-HT-2, NEOS, and a mixture of these 5 toxins added to the urine samples in the ELISA at concentrations of 0.05 and 0.2 ng/mL were 87 and 94%, respectively.  相似文献

The mycotoxin T-2 toxin, produced by various Fusarium species, is a widespread contaminant of grain and grain products. Knowledge about its toxicity and metabolism in the human body is crucial for any risk assessment as T-2 toxin can be detected in processed and unprocessed food samples. Cell culture studies using cells of human origin represent a potent model system to study the metabolic fate of T-2 toxin as well as the cytotoxicity in vitro. In this study the metabolism of T-2 toxin was analyzed in a cell line derived from human colon carcinoma cells (HT-29) and primary human renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (RPTEC) using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with Fourier transformation mass spectrometry (HPLC-FTMS). Both cell types metabolized T-2 toxin to a variety of compounds. Furthermore, cell cycle analysis in RPTEC proved the apoptotic effect of T-2 toxin and its metabolites HT-2 toxin and neosolaniol in micromolar concentrations.  相似文献

Deuterated acetyl derivatives (3-trideutero-acetyl-T-2 and 15-trideutero-HT-2) were prepared for use as internal standards for the quantitation of T-2 and HT-2 in blood by tandem mass spectrometry. The method used was multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), which essentially involves the selection of a parent ion for analysis followed by monitoring of the daughter ions generated by collision activated decomposition. The parent ions chosen for the trifluoroacetate derivative of T-2 and HT-2 were m/z+ 478 and 532, respectively. Both parents yield the same daughter ions, i.e., 180, 138, and 121. HT-2 and T-2 were added to blood extracts in amounts ranging from 1 to 20 ppb. The limit of detection is about 0.5 ppb with an effective detection limit of 1.0 ppb in a range of 1-20 ppb. The recovery is about 90%. This method can be used by veterinarians for purposes of diagnostics. It can be used for urine as well as blood.  相似文献

A reliable method for the determination of T-2 toxin and HT-2 toxin in different cereals, including oats, as well as in cereal products was developed. After extraction with methanol/water (90/10, v/v) and dilution with a 4% NaCl solution, the toxins were purified with immunoaffinity columns, derivatized with 1-anthroylnitrile, separated by HPLC, and determined using fluorescence detection. Due to the unspecific derivatization reagents, validation parameters were matrix dependent: in the range 10-200 microg/kg, recovery rates of 74-120% with relative standard deviations between 0.5 and 20.3% were obtained. On average, the limit of quantitation was shown to be 8 microg/kg for each toxin. For naturally contaminated samples, comparable results were obtained when analysis was performed according to this method without derivatization as well as according to a method based on a SPE cleanup utilizing tandem mass spectrometric detection in both cases. Using aqueous acetonitrile as extractant resulted in incorrectly high toxin concentrations due to water absorption of dry samples and toxin accumulation in the organic phase in the subsequent phase separation of the extractant. Furthermore, when comparing the commercially available immunoaffinity columns for T-2 and HT-2 toxins, significant differences regarding capacity and cleanup performance were observed.  相似文献

A method for the analysis of T-2 toxin in milk is presented. Ethyl acetate extracts of milk samples which had been spiked with T-2 toxin were purified by thin layer chromatography and derivatized with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide to produce the T-2 toxin trimethylsilyl ether (T-2 toxin-TMS). N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl-d9)acetamide was used to make T-2 toxin d9-trimethylsilyl ether (T-2 toxin-d9 TMS) which was added to the derivatized milk extract as an internal standard. Samples were analyzed by combined gas-liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry using either electron impact ionization or chemical ionization mass spectrometry. In electron impact ionization analyses, simultaneous monitoring of the T-2 toxin-TMS fragment ion at m/z 436 and the T-2 toxin-d9TMS fragment ion at m/z 445 gave a T-2 toxin-TMS detectability estimated at 6 microgram/kg. In chemical ionization analyses, the T-2 toxin-TMS fragment ion at m/z 377 and the T-2 toxin-d9TMS fragment ion at m/z 386 were simultaneously monitored to give a T-2 toxin-TMS detectability estimated at 3 microgram/kg. Average recovery was 85% at 200 microgram/kg and 65% at 20 microgram/kg.  相似文献

A gas chromatographic method for screening trichothecene mycotoxins in feeds is described. Feed is extracted with acetonitrile-water, and the toxins are purified with charcoal-alumina-Celite, Florisil, and silica mini-columns. Deoxynivalenol (DON), nivalenol (NIV), diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS), T-2 toxin, and their fungal metabolites are hydrolyzed to their corresponding parent alcohols (DON, NIV, scirpentriol, or T-2 tetraol) by alkaline hydrolysis. After derivatization to their pentafluoropropionyl analogs, they are quantitated by capillary gas chromatography with electron capture detection. Identity can be confirmed and sensitivity can be increased by using negative chemical ionization mass spectrometry with no additional sample workup. Recoveries of DAS, DON, and T-2 toxin averaged, respectively, 80, 65, and 85% in corn; 84, 65, and 88% in soybeans; and 70, 57, and 96% in mixed feeds at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 2.0 ppm. Recoveries of 15-monoacetoxyscirpenol (MAS), HT-2, NIV, and T-2 tetraol were 97, 97, 86, and 56%, respectively, in corn at a concentration of 0.25 ppm: A detection limit of 0.02 ppm in corn, soybeans, and mixed feeds, and 0.05 ppm in silages is estimated.  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 method is presented for the quantification and structure confirmation of trichothecenes in wheat by high-performance liquid chromatography combined with multiple mass spectrometry (MS(n)()). Nine type A- and B-trichothecenes were determined (nivalenol, deoxynivalenol, fusarenon-X, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol, 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol, neosolaniol, diacetoxyscirpenol, HT-2 toxin, and T-2 toxin). Extraction was carried out with acetonitrile/water. The extract was purified on a MycoSep column. Quantification was based on an internal standard and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization in the positive ion mode. Recoveries from spiked wheat were in the range of 80-106% at levels of 500 ppb. The limits of quantification for the whole method were between 10 and 100 ppb. Ion adduct formation with ammonium and acetate ions and MS(n) experiments provided information about substitution and fragmentation behavior of the mycotoxins. A scheme has been established for the partial structure elucidation of type A- and B-trichothecenes in fungal cultures.  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

The great sensitivity of some cell species to toxins has been adapted to a direct biological determination of trichothecene contamination of food and feeds. The murine spleen lymphocyte stimulated by PHA (Phaseolus vulgaris phytohaemagglutinin) appeared to be the most convenient cells because of their particular sensitivity to cytotoxic trichothecenes and the opportunity to translate this cytotoxicity to immunosuppressive hazard, one of the most important concerns for trichothecenes. In this paper, the use of cell cultures was adapted for a survey of corn. The toxins were extracted by aqueous methanol, and the extract was defatted with hexane and purified on a silica gel/Florisil column. This extract was then used for a gas chromatographic (GC) determination and the biological test. The growth of cells was measured by the incorporation of tritiated thymidine (3H Tdr), and the inhibition was expressed by the IC50: concentration of corn extract inhibiting by half the 3H Tdr incorporation. We have tested pure toxins, control corn, corn spiked with T-2 toxin, corn experimentally inoculated with toxigenic Fusarium strains, and naturally contaminated corn. A good correlation exists between IC50 and the T-2 toxin concentration as determined by GC analysis. The response is not affected by the presence of zearalenone or by small amounts of deoxynivalenol. A quantitative evaluation of cytotoxic trichothecenes in corn is valuable in the range of 100 ppb to 10 ppm, expressed as T-2 toxin equivalents. The result is obtained in 48 h.  相似文献

A fast and sensitive bioassay with hamster (BHK-21 C13) fibroblasts for the detection of toxic trichothecenes in maize is described. Cells are exposed to pure toxins or crude maize extracts for 30 min. The mixture is then incubated with [1-14C]-leucine for an additional 60 min and the radioactivity incorporated into the protein of the washed cells is determined. The sensitivity of the assay was in the range 1-10 ng/mL (or 50 ppb in maize) for T-2, HT-2, and diacetoxyscirpenol. At least 1000-fold higher concentrations of non-trichothecene mycotoxins and plant toxins were necessary to cause an inhibition of protein synthesis in the cells. Of 24 maize samples tested, 14 gave a positive response in this assay and the presence of trichothecenes could be confirmed chemically in 11 samples. Therefore, the described bioassay is proposed as a useful screening method for cytotoxic trichothecenes in maize.  相似文献

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were developed for imidacloprid, a neonicotinoid insecticide. Haptens were designed in such ways that spacer arms were introduced on either the pyridinyl or the imidazolidinyl ring of imidacloprid. Two sets of polyclonal antibodies were raised from rabbits immunized with two different immunogens and were characterized with an indirect ELISA format. Cross-reactivities and effects of organic solvents on the assays were evaluated. One set of antibodies shows approximately equal cross-reactivities to imidacloprid and its major metabolites with half-maximum inhibition concentrations (I(50)) of 73-88 ppb. Another is specific to imidacloprid with an I(50) of 35 ppb. The assay was initially applied to the analysis of imidacloprid in fortified water, coffee cherry, and bean extracts.  相似文献

A monoclonal antibody-based ractopamine immunoassay has been applied to incurred samples from sheep and cattle. Results obtained by immunoassay were compared with those from high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Three sets of sample extracts containing primarily unmetabolized ractopamine were analyzed. Correlation of HPLC with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for beef liver samples gave an r(2) = 0.98 despite rather low ractopamine concentrations (range 1.1-13.4 ng/mL, n = 6). Ractopamine concentrations in cow urine samples treated by solid phase extraction, to remove ractopamine metabolites, also showed a high correlation between the HPLC and the ELISA results (r(2) = 0.95, range 1.0-275 ng/mL, n = 61). In contrast, HPLC and ELISA analyses of ractopamine in sheep urine were not well-correlated (r(2) = 0.58, range 0.85-51 ng/mL, n = 34). When ractopamine conjugates in urine samples were hydrolyzed with hydrolytic enzymes, ELISA and HPLC methods were highly correlated [r(2) = 0.94 for sheep (range 123-10 554 ppb, n = 60) and an r(2) = 0.98 for cattle (range 14-8159 ppb, n = 62)]. Tissues contained only minute amounts of ractopamine, and after 7-day withdrawal periods, less than 1 ppb of free ractopamine was detected. Ractopamine was rapidly metabolized in both cattle and sheep. The difference in ractopamine concentration of urine samples before and after hydrolysis indicated that only 1-5% of ractopamine was excreted unmetabolized. Results from this study indicate that the monoclonal antibody-based ELISA could be useful for a sensitive, quantitative, or qualitative ractopamine screening assay.  相似文献

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for deoxynivalenol in corn and wheat   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
The availability of antibody against deoxynivalenol (DON) triacetate (Tri-Ac-DON) has enabled development of a direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and an indirect ELISA for DON in corn and wheat. In both assays, DON is extracted from the sample with acetonitrile-water, reacted with acetic anhydride to form Tri-Ac-DON, and diluted in phosphate buffer for analysis. Direct ELISA was found to be the more sensitive procedure. Fewer interferences are evidenced, and the assay is less time consuming than is indirect ELISA. For direct ELISA, recovery of 10-1000 ppb DON added to corn and wheat was 100% (SD 15, CV 15%) and 102.1% (SD 12.2, CV 11.9%), respectively. For indirect ELISA, overall recovery of 10-1000 ppb DON added to wheat was 121.5% (SD 39.5, CV 32.5%); in the higher concentration range (500-1000 ppb), recovery was 105% (SD 18, CV 17%). The minimal detection level for DON was around 10 ppb. Analysis of 7 naturally contaminated samples for DON showed that the ELISA results agreed well with those obtained by radioimmunoassay and thin-layer chromatography.  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

Samples of winter wheat (n =84), winter rye (46) and barley (29) were collected from the larger family farms and from partnerships in Lithuania just after the 1998 harvest. The number of samples collected from each region was proportional to the amount of grain produced in it. The levels of the Fusarium toxins deoxynivalenol (DON), 3-acetyl-DON, 15-acetyl-DON, nivalenol (NIV), fusarenon-X (4-acetyl-NIV), T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin, 4,5-diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS), 1,5-monoacetoxyscirpenol (MAS) and scirpentriol in the grain were determined by gas chromatography with mass-selective detection (GC-MS). DON was most often detected in the wheat and rye samples and NIV in the barley samples. The concentrations found were lower than those causing acute or chronic toxic effects in livestock or humans. No fusarenon-X or 15-acetyl-DON was detected, and only small amounts of other trichothecenes were present. Climatic conditions in Lithuania in the summer of 1998 were slightly cooler and wetter than the average for the 1992-1996 but were close to the norm. Because the samples analysed were representative of grain produced for the market in seasons with normal weather, trichothecene contamination of grain from large family farms and partnerships would not be expected to be a problem in most years.  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

Determination of cutin-bound residues of chlorothalonil by immunoassay   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
An indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine photochemically cutin-bound residues of chlorothalonil in enzymatically isolated tomato and apple fruit cuticles. The samples were spiked, irradiated, exhaustively extracted, and depolymerized with boron trifluoride complex resulting in a soluble depolymerisate. With this procedure, the ELISA could be calibrated with free target molecules for the quantification of originally bound chlorothalonil residues. In fruit cuticles that were irradiated for 8 h by simulated sunlight, 0.030 and 0.068 mg/g photoinduced cutin-bound residues of wax-free cuticles (calculated as chlorothalonil) were determined for tomatoes and apples, respectively. For the used antibody mAb chl. 4/11, cross-reactivities with derivatives of chlorothalonil simulating different types of cuticle-bound residues are given and discussed.  相似文献

A multiresidue method was developed for the simultaneous determination of low parts per billion (ppb) concentrations of the herbicides alachlor, metolachlor, atrazine, and simazine in water and soil using isotope dilution gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Known amounts of 15N,13C-alachlor and 2H5-atrazine were added to each sample as internal standards. The samples were then prepared by a solid phase extraction with no further cleanup. A high resolution GC/low resolution MS system with data acquisition in selected ion monitoring mode was used to quantitate herbicides in the extract. The limit of detection was 0.05 ppb for water and 0.5 ppb for soil. Accuracy greater than 80% and precision better than 4% was demonstrated with spiked samples.  相似文献

Small charcoal/alumina cleanup columns have been effectively used to remove interfering materials from grain, feed, and food extracts prior to chromatographic determination of trichothecene mycotoxins. A thin layer chromatographic method has been developed that can simultaneously detect part per billion concentrations of deoxynivalenol, fusarenon X, nivalenol, T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin, neosolaniol, and diacetoxyscirpenol in food and feed samples. Recoveries of 90-99% can be obtained. The use of charcoal/alumina cleanup columns in conjunction with liquid chromatography and gas chromatography of trichothecenes is also discussed.  相似文献
