FUMONIPREP® immunoaffinity columns are used in conjunction with HPLC or LC-MS/MS for detection of fumonisins B1 and B2 in a wide range of commodities.

Description

Intended use:

Immunoaffinity columns are used in conjunction with HPLC or LC-MS/MS for detection of fumonisins B1 and B2 in a wide range of commodities.

 

General Information:

The procedure is based on monoclonal antibody technology, which makes the test highly specific, sensitive, rapid and simple to perform. Improved clean-up and concentration of toxins from complex food matrices results in reduced chromatography interference and lower detection limits. The columns contain a gel suspension of monoclonal antibody specific to the toxins of interest. Following extraction of the toxins the sample extract is filtered, diluted and passed slowly through the immunoaffinity column. Any toxins which are present in the sample are retained by the antibody within the gel suspension. The column is washed to remove unbound material and the toxins are then released from the column following elution with solvent. The eluate is collected prior to analysis by HPLC or LC-MS/MS. Fumonisins are required to be derivatised when analysed by HPLC.

 

Benefits:

  • The columns can be used for the analysis of certain metabolites and masked mycotoxins.
  • The columns give excellent recoveries, meet EU performance criteria and have low % RSD.
  • They are wide format allowing the sample to flow easily by gravity.

Sample preparation A representative sample should be obtained by following one of the officially recognised sampling procedures. It is recommended that a minimum of 1 kg of representative sample is finely ground and a portion (10 – 50 g dependent on method used) of this is removed and extracted.
Incubation time 60 sec
LOD (Detection limit) FB1 5ng/ml (ppt), FB2 10 ng/ml by using the HPLC method,
FB1 1 ng/ml, FB2 1 ng/ml by using the LC-MS/MS method.
Validated matrices Food and feed.
Available application notes Methods are available for all matrices covered by legislation as well as additional commodities. Deviation from the methods described in our Instructions For Use and Application Notes may not result in optimum results. Please contact your local R-Biopharm distributor for further information.
Detected analyte Fumonisin B1 und B2 in food und feed.
Evaluation It is recommended to run at least a 3 – 6 point calibration curve. In constructing a suitable curve the levels of the calibration standards should bracket or include the range of expected results. The diluted standard solution should be prepared fresh on the day of analysis and used within a 24 hour period.
