Popis: | A new sensitive method for the simultaneous determination of 12 trichothecenes (deoxynivalenol, nivalenol, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol, 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol, fusarenon X, T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin, neosolaniol, monoacetoxyscirpenol, diacetoxyscirpenol, T-2 triol, and T-2 tetraol) by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) is presented. The development of the method and investigations on the matrix influence on the MS signal are described in particular. The matrix effect was thereby minimized by using an internal standard, a special mobile phase, and specific fragmentation parameters. The sample was extracted with acetonitrile/water (84:16, v/v), and the extract was cleaned up with a MycoSep 227 column. Quantification was based on the internal standard de-epoxy-deoxynivalenol. Calibration curves were linear between 16 and 1600 ng/g, and the limits of detection ranged from 0.18 to 5.0 ng/g. The developed method was applied for the determination of trichothecenes in 120 naturally contaminated wheat and oat samples. |
