1. Effects of gamma irradiation on aflatoxins
B Mutluer, F U Erkoç Z Lebensm Unters Forsch . 1987 Nov;185(5):398-401. doi: 10.1007/BF01042262.
The effects of gamma irradiation on a mixture of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, G2 were studied. Standard solutions of A and B were irradiated at 5, 10, and 20 kGy in a solution of water/DMSO (9 + 1, v/v) by using a 137Cs source. The control (0 kGy) and irradiated samples were subjected to RP-HPLC analyses with methanol/water (4 + 5, v/v) as the mobile phase. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) was the most radio-sensitive of the four compounds. The radiosensitivity of the other aflatoxins, was in increasing order: G2, B2, G1. Only about 5% of AFB1 remained after irradiation of solution A at 5 kGy. When the concentration of solution B was increased two-fold, trace amounts of AFB1 remained after irradiation doses of 10 and 20 kGy. Irradiation was found to be suitable for the destruction of aflatoxins in solution.
2. Development of immunosensor based on OWLS technique for determining Aflatoxin B1 and Ochratoxin A

Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by a number of different fungi, and can be present in a wide range of food and feed commodities including cereal grains, oil seeds, dried fruits, apple juice, wine and meat products from animals fed contaminated meal. Many mycotoxins are highly resistant, and survive food processing, and therefore enter the food chain and provide a threat to human health. The optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy (OWLS) technique has been applied to the detection of Aflatoxin and Ochratoxin in both competitive and in direct immunoassays. After immobilizing the antibody or antigen conjugate for the direct or indirect measurement, respectively, the sensor chip was used in flow-injection analyser (FIA) system. When using non-competitive method, sensor responses were obtained first only at analyte concentrations of 5-10 ng ml(-1). In both cases, the responses were very unstable. For competitive sensor investigation with the sensitized chip first the optimal dilution rate of monoclonal antibodies was determined, for the measurement of Ochratoxin A and Aflatoxin B1 the monoclonal antibody stock solution was diluted to 1 microg ml(-1) and to a 1:400 dilution, respectively. During the competitive measurement standard solutions were mixed with monoclonal antibodies at the appropriate concentration, the mixture was incubated for 1 min and injected into the OWLS system. The sensitive detection range of the competitive detection method was between 0.5 and 10 ng ml(-1) in both cases. After the establishment of the indirect method, barley and wheat flour samples were measured, and the results were in good correlation by those measured by enzyme linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA). Regression coefficient between the two methods for Ochratoxin and Aflatoxin was determined as 0.96 and 0.89, respectively.
3. Biosorption of B-aflatoxins Using Biomasses Obtained from Formosa Firethorn [Pyracantha koidzumii (Hayata) Rehder]
Alma Vázquez-Durán, Abraham Méndez-Albores, Rosa Adriana Ramales-Valderrama Toxins (Basel) . 2016 Jul 13;8(7):218. doi: 10.3390/toxins8070218.
Mycotoxin adsorption onto biomaterials is considered as a promising alternative for decontamination without harmful chemicals. In this research, the adsorption of B-aflatoxins (AFB₁ and AFB₂) using Pyracantha koidzumii biomasses (leaves, berries and the mixture of leaves/berries) from aqueous solutions was explored. The biosorbent was used at 0.5% (w/v) in samples spiked with 100 ng/mL of B-aflatoxin standards and incubated at 40 °C for up to 24 h. A standard biosorption methodology was employed and aflatoxins were quantified by an immunoaffinity column and UPLC methodologies. The biosorbent-aflatoxin interaction mechanism was investigated from a combination of zeta potential (ζ), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The highest aflatoxin uptakes were 86% and 82% at 6 h using leaves and the mixture of leaves/berries biomasses, respectively. A moderate biosorption of 46% was attained when using berries biomass. From kinetic studies, the biosorption process is described using the first order adsorption model. Evidence from FTIR spectra suggests the participation of hydroxyl, amine, carboxyl, amide, phosphate and ketone groups in the biosorption and the mechanism was proposed to be dominated by the electrostatic interaction between the negatively charged functional groups and the positively charged aflatoxin molecules. Biosorption by P. koidzumii biomasses has been demonstrated to be an alternative to conventional systems for B-aflatoxins removal.
