Abstract
BACKGROUND
Mycotoxins are produced by fungi as secondary metabolites. They often multi-contaminate food and feed commodities posing a health risk to humans and animals. Fast and easy multiplex screening could be thought as a useful tool for detection of multi-contaminated food and feed commodities.
RESULTS
A highly sensitive immune-affinity monolithic arrays for detecting the mycotoxins zearalenone, deoxynivalenol, T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin, aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, and fumonisin B1 were fabricated using UV induced co-polymerisation. The mycotoxin antibodies firstly reacted with functional monomer to form antibody/functional monomer bio-conjugates. Subsequently, the antibody/functional monomer bio-conjugates co-polymerised with cross-linker to form mycotoxins immune-affinity arrays. With optimal fabrication conditions, all mycotoxin immune-affinity monolithic arrays exhibited a linear response spanning three orders of magnitude. And the immune-affinity monolithic array has a low detection limit and has a good uniformity (intra-assay CV, and inter-assay CV both <8%).
CONCLUSION
The fabricated mycotoxin immune-affinity monolithic arrays were proved as a sensitive, stable and economical tool in real food samples detection. Moreover, the mycotoxin immune-affinity monolithic arrays would be able to minimise manipulation steps: add samples and enzyme labelled mycotoxins, and detect CL signals. © 2016 Society of Chemical Industry.
