Abstract: | A new analytical strategy was established to improve the determination and identification performance during analyses of microcystins and diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins in different matrices. Automated high performance size exclusion chromatography (gel permeation chromatography, SEC) was applied for the clean-up of raw extracts from algae and mussel tissue containing either microcystins or DSP toxins. The cleaned raw extracts are well suited for the direct determination of microcystins and DSP toxins by HPLC/MS. The analyses of cleaned raw extracts containing microcystin by HPLC and UV/diode array detection (DAD) revealed chromatograms without interfering peaks. Additionally, methods for the identification of unknown microcystins and those not available as standards were developed and established. The proposed strategy is exemplarily demonstrated for the analyses of a natural algae community from a lake in Slowakia and a naturally contaminated mussel from Portugal.
