Novel Enzyme-Linked Aptamer Assay for the Determination of Aflatoxin B1 in Peanuts

Abstract

A novel enzyme-linked aptamer assay is reported for the determination of aflatoxin B₁ (AFB₁). AFB₁ can competitively bind with the immobilized biotin-aptamer and release biotin complementary DNA, leading to the gradual fading of the detection system color with increasing of AFB₁ concentration. In the absence of AFB₁, the biotinylated complementary DNA is not be released from the fixed aptamer. Therefore, the enzyme reaction occurs in the detection system. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the proposed method possessed a wide linear range for AFB₁ from 1 to 80?ng/mL (R² of 0.990) with a low detection limit of 0.36?ng/mL. The method was then applied to detect uncontaminated peanuts fortified with different concentrations of AFB₁. The recovery values were from 82.60% to 94.43%, which indicated the proposed method may be used to detect AFB₁ in food and has potential for the development of test kits.     

Development of the custom polymeric materials specific for aflatoxin B1 and ochratoxin A for application with the ToxiQuant T1 sensor tool

Two polymers were computationally designed with affinity to two of the most abundant mycotoxins aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and ochratoxin A (OTA) for application in the ToxiQuant T1 System. The principle of quantification of AFB1 and OTA using the ToxiQuant T1 instrument comprised of a fluorimetric analysis of mycotoxins adsorbed on the polymer upon exposure to UV light. High affinity of the developed resins allowed the adsorption of both toxins as discrete bands on the top of the cartridge with detection limit as low as 1 ng quantity of mycotoxins.     

Determination of Deoxynivalenol,Zearalenone, Aflatoxin B1, and Ochratoxin by an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay

The purpose of this study was to establish a simple method for noninstrumental detection of these residues by a multianalyte dot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The multianalyte dot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was simple, inexpensive, and fast and is expected to have broad applications in the food processing industry in rural China.     

一种简单灵敏的基于适配体的黄曲霉毒素B1电化学传感器

黄曲霉毒素B1（AFB1）以其高毒性和致癌性成为食品安全隐患而备受关注. 本文拟构建一种新颖、简单、快速、灵敏的传感器用于谷物食品中AFB1的痕量检测. 将介孔碳（CMK）修饰在工作电极表面来增大电极的表面积,再将工作电极恒电位沉积金纳米粒子（AuNPs）,提高电信号的同时,为下一步巯基化适配体的连接提供位点. 检测过程中,AFB1可以竞争性地去除吸附在适配体链上的亚甲基蓝（MB）引起电信号的变化,对AFB1进行定量检测. 修饰的工作电极导电性能得到改善,灵敏度大大提高,对AFB1的线性响应范围为0.1 ~ 75 μg·L^-1,检出限低至36 ng·L^-1. 在对不同谷物食品（大米、玉米、糯米）进行加标回收实验中,回收率在92.3% ~ 103.6%范围之间,实现对目标物的定量检测. 本文为食品中AFB1快速检测方法提供了一种新思路和新方法.     

Simultaneous enzyme immunoassay for the screening of aflatoxin B1 and ochratoxin A in chili samples

Membrane-based immunoassay has been developed for simultaneous estimation of aflatoxin B₁ (AFB₁) and ochratoxin A (OA) in chili samples. The combined estimation of both the mycotoxins is more economical in respect of time, work and materials than two separate assays. The method uses a low cost test device consisting of a membrane with immobilized anti-AFB₁ and anti-OA antibodies and a filter paper attached to a polyethylene card below the membrane. It allows direct analysis of sample extracts containing substantial amount (40%) of methanol. This permits the use of two-fold diluted sample extracts resulting in minimum dilution error. The limit of quantitation obtained was 2 and 10 μg kg⁻¹ for AFB₁ and OA, respectively. The tolerance of 40% methanol was found to be due to the application of small size (0.8 mm diameter) spots on membranes, as the tolerance decreases to 20% with gradual increase in spot size. The combined method is capable of producing acceptable results to analyze AFB₁ and OA in chili with accuracy and precision. The AFB₁ and OA values obtained for spiked and naturally contaminated chili samples by the simultaneous method were in good correlation with those measured by individual ELISA. The method offers a simple, rapid and cost-effective screening tool to meet the requirements of the rapidly evolving EU legislation.

Micro-plate chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay for aflatoxin B1 in agricultural products

In this work, a micro-plate chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay by antibody-coated for the determination of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in agricultural products has been established. Aflatoxin B1 antibody (AFB1-Ab) was adsorbed physically on polystyrene micro-plate hole as solid phase antibody, which took place immunity-reaction between antigen and antibody with AFB1 standard solution or samples by direct competition. Luminol-hydrogen peroxide chemiluminescence system catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) with p-iodophenol enhancement was used as signal detecting system. The effects of several factors, including composition and pH of coating solution, dilution ratio and amount of antibody and enzyme labeled antigen, time of antibody-coating, incubation and chemiluminescence reaction, and other relevant variables upon the immunoasaay were studied and optimized. The linear range of proposed method for AFB1 was 0.05-10.0 ng g⁻¹ with a correlative coefficient of −0.9997. The sensitivity of the proposed method was 0.01 ng g⁻¹. The RSDs of intra- and inter-assay were less than 12.2% and 10.0%, respectively. This method has been successfully applied to the evaluation of AFB1 in agricultural products with recoveries of 79.8%, 101.9% and 115.4% for low, middle and high concentration samples, respectively. It shows a good correlation with the commercial available ELISA kit for AFB1 with correlative coefficient of 0.9098 indicating that the established CLEIA method can be used to determine AFB1 in real samples.

Horseradish peroxidase-screen printed biosensors for determination of Ochratoxin A

This work summarizes the manufacturing procedure of Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) based biosensors for the determination of the mycotoxin Ochratoxin A (OTA). The biosensors have been fabricated using the single technology of screen-printing. That is to say, an HRP containing ink has been directly screen-printed onto carbon electrodes, which offers a higher rapidity and simplicity in the manufacturing process of biosensors for OTA determination. The formal redox potential of the Fe(III/II) moiety of HRP has been used to demonstrate the effective loading of enzyme into the ink. The chronoamperometric oxidation current registered has been successfully related to the concentration of OTA in solution from different samples, including beer ones. Under the optimum conditions of the experimental variables, precision in terms of reproducibility and repeatability has been calculated in the concentration range from 23.85 to 203.28 nM. A relative standard deviation for the slopes of 10% (n = 4) was obtained for reproducibility. In the case of repeatability, the biosensor retained a 30% of the initial sensitivity after the third calibration. The average capability of detection for 0.05% probabilities of false positive and negative was 26.77 ± 3.61 nM (α = 0.05 and β = 0.05, n = 3).

Fe3O4 Nanorods-RGO-ionic Liquid Nanocomposite Based Electrochemical Sensor for Aflatoxin B1 in Ground Paprika

A novel and sensitive method for the determination of aflatoxin B1 (AFA−B1) in ground paprika using a methyltrioctylammonium chloride ionic liquid (IL), iron oxide nanorods (Fe₃O₄ nanorods) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) fabricated glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was developed. The synthesized nanoparticles, nanocomposites and modified electrode surfaces were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA/DSC) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. Moreover, the electrochemical performance of the developed sensor was determined by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The obtained results demonstrate that the sensitivity of AFA−B1 is significantly enhanced on RGO-Fe₃O₄ nanorods-IL-GCE in comparison with bare GCE, RGO-GCE and RGO-Fe₃O₄ nanorods-GCE. The redox peak currents of AFA−B1 exhibited good linear relationship with its concentration in the range from 0.02 to 0.33 ng mL⁻¹ with detection limit of (LOD) 0.03 ng mL⁻¹ and limit of quantification (LOQ) 0.36 ng mL⁻¹ respectively (S/N=3). In addition, the fabricated electrode showed good stability and reproducibility. The proposed technique was effectively applied to identify the AFA−B1 in real ground paprika samples with acceptable results.
