An Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography combined with Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (UHPLC-ToF-MS) method has been developed for determination of nine mycotoxins, namely aflatoxins (AFB, AFB, AFG and AFG), ochratoxin A (OTA), zearalenone (ZEA), toxin T2 (T2) and fumonisins (FB and FB) in maize. The method included a two-step extraction with acetonitrile 80% (v/v). After optimization, the analytical method was validated. The different concentrations tested take in account the Maximum Levels (ML) for maize (Commission Regulation EC no. 1881/2006) and good results for repeatability (%RSD ≤ 15.4%), reproducibility (%RSD ≤ 15.9%) and recovery (77.8-110.4%, except for AFG2 at 2 μg/kg which presented a recovery of 73.4%) were achieved. These met the performance criteria imposed by Commission Regulation (EC) no. 401/2006. The method was applied to twenty-two samples from Portuguese producers of maize. Fumonisins were the most frequently detected mycotoxins, but the levels do not exceed those imposed by European legislation.
已开发出一种超高效液相色谱与飞行时间质谱联用(UHPLC-ToF-MS)的方法,用于测定玉米中的九种霉菌毒素,即黄曲霉毒素(AFB₁、AFB₂、AFG₁和AFG₂)、赭曲霉毒素A(OTA)、玉米赤霉烯酮(ZEA)、T-2毒素(T-2)以及伏马毒素(FB₁和FB₂)。该方法包括用80%(v/v)乙腈进行两步萃取。优化后,对该分析方法进行了验证。所测试的不同浓度考虑了玉米的最大限量(欧盟委员会法规EC No. 1881/2006),并在重复性(%RSD≤15.4%)、再现性(%RSD≤15.9%)和回收率(77.8 - 110.4%,2 μg/kg的AFG₂除外,其回收率为73.4%)方面取得了良好结果。这些结果符合欧盟委员会法规(EC)No. 401/2006规定的性能标准。该方法应用于来自葡萄牙玉米生产商的22个样品。伏马毒素是最常检测到的霉菌毒素,但含量未超过欧洲法规规定的水平。
