Abstract

Enrichment, separation and purification are very important to accurately analyze mycotoxins in complicated samples. In the work, we developed a new enrichment, purification and high-performance liquid chromatography combined with fluorescence detector (HPLC-FLD) for aflatoxins B1 (AFB1), ochratoxin A (OTA) and Zearalenone (ZEN) assay using the macroporous magnetic 3D photonic crystal microspheres (3DPCMs). The conditions of enrichment and purification for mycotoxins have been optimized, which are as follows: pore size of 3DPCMs at 280 nm, 1:1 methanol:acetonitrile (v/v) as eluent, antibody concentrations at 60 µg/mL,60 µg/mL and 120 µg/mL for OTA, AFB1 and ZEN, respectively. The recovery rates in the rice, wheat and corn samples range from 70.01% to 100.12% and the relative standard deviation (RSD) range from 0.45% to 7.09%. The recovery rates used 3DPCMs are almost tenfold higher than that used non-macroporous PCMs in the same conditions. The developed method is simple, rapid (time including enrichment, purification and detection <2 h) and only requires small volume reagents (≤200 µL).
