Article Abstract

Herein we present a double-color lateral flow immunoassay (D-MANP-LFIA) test strip for the rapid and simultaneous quantitative detection of fumonisin B1 (FB1) and T-2 toxin (T-2). The D-MANP-LFIA employs two differently colored core-shell structured magnetic aggregation-induced emission bifunctional nanoparticles (MANPs) as signal amplification tags. Leveraging their high fluorescence intensity and well-retained magnetic properties, the D-MANP-LFIA enables accurate and concurrent quantification of FB1 and T-2 through a chicken IgY antibody-mediated, independent C-line-assisted ratiometric signal output strategy. The detection limits for FB1 and T-2 were as low as 0.183 ng/mL and 0.017 ng/mL in PBS. Aditionally, the D-MANP-LFIA demonstrated good practicality, accurately quantifying FB1 and T-2 in feed and corn samples. Collectively, the D-MANP-LFIA provides a powerful tool for the rapid detection of multiple trace mycotoxins in complex matrices, making it highly valuable for food and feed safety monitoring.

This study investigates the presence of mycotoxins in green coffee-based dietary supplements to ensure their safety, given the potential risks of contamination and the growing interest in them among consumers. A sample treatment based on a salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) followed by one-step solid-phase extraction (SPE) was selected for the extraction and clean-up of 15 mycotoxins followed by ultra-high performance chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry detection (UHPLC-MS/MS). The target mycotoxins included aflatoxins (AFG1, AFG2, AFB1, AFB2), toxins (AOH, AME, TEN), ochratoxin A (OTA), fumonisins (FB1, FB2), zearalenone (ZEN), trichothecenes (T-2, HT-2), enniatin B1 (ENNB1), and beauvericin (BEA).

Mycotoxin contamination in maize poses significant food and feed safety risks, particularly in regions with variable climatic conditions like Serbia. This study investigated the occurrence of regulated mycotoxins in maize harvested across the Republic of Serbia from 2021 to 2023, emphasizing the impact of climatic factors. A total of 548 samples of unprocessed maize grains were analysed for the presence of key mycotoxins, including aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, zearalenone, deoxynivalenol, fumonisins, and trichothecenes type A (T-2 and HT-2 toxins), using validated analytical methods.

Co-contamination of multiple mycotoxins in feed has become one of the most important issues in the world. In this study, the characteristics and interactions of co-contamination among 15 mycotoxins were explored in dairy cow feed, including total mixed ration (TMR), silage, maize, and hay feed. The results showed that four dairy cow feeds were constantly contaminated with mycotoxins, including zearalenone (ZEN), fumonisins (FBs), deoxynivalenol (DON), ochratoxin A (OTA), T-2 toxin (T-2), and aflatoxins (AFs).
