Mycotoxin occurrence in milk and durum wheat samples from Tunisia using dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction and liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection.

Food and feed contamination with mycotoxins is a major public health concern. Humans and animals are exposed to these toxins by consuming contaminated products throughout their lives. In this study, a method based on dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME), followed by … Continue reading

Ion mobility-mass spectrometry to extend analytical performance in the determination of ergot alkaloids in cereal samples.

This work evaluates the potential of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) to improve the analytical performance of current liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) workflows applied to the determination of ergot alkaloids (EAs) in cereal samples. Collision cross section (CCS) values for EA … Continue reading

Non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis–time of flight mass spectrometry method to determine emerging mycotoxins.

Enniatins (ENN) and beauvericin (BEA) are emerging mycotoxins that have been traditionally determined by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). However, to the best of our knowledge, no analytical methods based on capillary electrophoresis (CE)–MS/MS have been reported … Continue reading

Occurrence of ergot alkaloids in barley and wheat from Algeria

The natural occurrence of six major ergot alkaloids, ergometrine, ergosine, ergotamine, ergocornine, ergokryptine and ergocristine, as well as their corresponding epimers, were investigated in 60 cereal samples (barley and wheat) from Algeria. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass … Continue reading

A novel approach based on capillary liquid chromatography for the simultaneous determination of neonicotinoid residues in cereal samples

A simple and effective method using solid–liquid extraction followed by capillary liquid chromatography with diode array detection (CLC-DAD) has been established for the extraction and determination of seven neonicotinoid insecticides commercially available (imidacloprid, thiacloprid, clothianidin, thiamethoxam, acetamiprid, nitenpyram and dinotefuran) … Continue reading
