Abstract

MIL53(Al)‐SiO2@Fe3O4 composite was prepared by co‐precipitation route with a typical Stöber synthetic process and ultrasonic‐agitation, then subsequently utilized as a multi‐component novel sorbent in solid‐phase microextraction (SPME) of aflatoxin B1 in winter herbal teas. Microstructural properties of MIL53(Al)‐SiO2@Fe3O4 composite was characterized by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, powder X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) methods, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area measurement. The MIL53(Al)‐SiO2@Fe3O4 composite was found to be a very effective sorbent in spectrofluorimetric determination of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in winter herbal teas via magnetic solid‐phase extraction (SPE) route. The proposed method showed a wide linear range from 0.5 to 150 ng/ml, low limit of detection (LOD = 0.5 ng/ml), and an acceptable recovery values (70.7–96.5%) in real samples analysis. This study shows that the suggested method possesses an important potential to use for detecting AFB1 in quality control laboratories.
