Abstract Modified AOAC 991.31 and AOAC 2000.03 methods for the simultaneous determination of total aflatoxins (AFs), aflatoxin B1, and ochratoxin A (OTA) in processed cereal-based foods by RP-HPLC coupled with fluorescence detection were validated. A KOBRA® Cell derivatization system was used to analyze total AFs. One of the modifications was the extraction procedure of mycotoxins. Both AFs and OTA were extracted with methanol–water (75 + 25, v/v) and purified with an immunoaffinity column before HPLC analysis. The modified methods were validated by measuring the specificity, selectivity, linearity, sensitivity, accuracy, repeatability, reproducibility, recovery, LOD, and LOQ parameters. The validated methods were successfully applied for the simultaneous determination of mycotoxins in 81 processed cereal-based foods purchased in Turkey. These rapid, sensitive, simple, and validated methods are suitable for the simultaneous determination of AFs and OTA in the processed cereal-based foods.

Abstract The simultaneous determination of mycotoxins was performed in 3 steps: extraction, cleanup, and detection. For extraction, a mixture of acetonitrile–water (60 + 40, v/v) was proved appropriate. For cleanup, a new Afla-Ochra-Zea immunoaffinity column was used. After derivatization with trifluoroacetic acid, the mycotoxins aflatoxins, ochratoxin A (OTA), and zearalenone (ZEA) were determined simultaneously by liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. The detection limits in different matrixes after cleanup with the new immunoaffinity column were very low: aflatoxins, 0.002–0.7 μg/kg; OTA, 0.07–0.25 μg/kg; ZEA, 1–3 μg/kg. The limits of determination were: aflatoxins, 0.25 μg/kg; OTA, 0.5 μg/kg; ZEA, 5 μg/kg. The recovery rates for aflatoxins, OTA, and ZEA for rye and rice were between 86 and 93% when a 0.5 g sample matter per immunoaffinity column was used.

Contamination Levels

Doenjang, a Korean fermented soybean paste, is vulnerable to contamination by mycotoxins because it is directly exposed to environmental microbiota during fermentation. A method that simultaneously determines 20 mycotoxins in doenjang, including aflatoxins (AFs), ochratoxin A (OTA), zearalenone (ZEN), and fumonisins (FBs) with an immunoaffinity column cleanup was optimized and validated in doenjang using LC-MS/MS. The method showed good performance in the analysis of 20 mycotoxins in doenjang with good linearity (R2 > 0.999), intra- and inter-day precision (<16%), recovery (72–112%), matrix effect (87–104%), and measurement uncertainty (<42%). The validated method was applied to investigate mycotoxin contamination levels in commercial and homemade doenjang. The mycotoxins that frequently contaminated doenjang were AFs, OTA, ZEN, and FBs and the average contamination level and number of co-occurring mycotoxins in homemade doenjang were higher than those in commercially produced doenjang.

Abstract Background: Tarhana is a traditional fermented, sun-dried Turkish food containing yogurt and cereals. There are several potential sources of mycotoxins in tarhana, such as contamination of ingredients or formation during preparation, when water activity is suitable for fungal growth and may lead to mycotoxin production during fermentation or subsequent sun-drying. Objective: To optimize an immunoaffinity column method and carry out single-laboratory validation for the determination of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2 together with ochratoxin A (OTA) in tarhana. Method: A homogenized sample was extracted with methanol–acetonitrile–water (25 + 25 + 50) using a high-speed blender. The sample extract was filtered, diluted with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution, and applied to a multi-immunoaffinity column (AFLAOCHRA PREP®). Aflatoxins and OTA were removed with neat methanol and then directly analyzed by reverse-phase LC with fluorescence detection using post-column bromination (Kobra® Cell). Results: Test portions of blank tarhana were spiked with a mixture of total aflatoxins and OTA to give levels ranging from 2.5 to 10.0 and 1.5 to 6.0 μg/kg, respectively. Recoveries for total aflatoxins and OTA ranged from 82 to 93 and 78 to 94%, respectively, for spiked samples. Based on results for spiked tarhana (30 replicates, each at three levels), the relative standard deviation for repeatability ranged from 1.4 to 7.2 and 3.6 to 7.7% for total aflatoxins and OTA, respectively. Conclusions: The performance characteristics for recovery, repeatability, and sensitivity have demonstrated that the method meets method performance criteria for use for official purposes. The method was demonstrated as being applicable to naturally contaminated samples of tarhana of varied composition obtained from local markets in Turkey. Highlights: This is the first immunoaffinity column method for simultaneous analysis of aflatoxins and OTA in traditional Turkish food (tarhana). Suitability was demonstrated by single-laboratory validation for official purposes in Turkey. The method was demonstrated as suitable for naturally contaminated samples of tarhana of varied composition.
