Food Chem 2024; 453:139626. [PMID: 38759440 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 04/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
Ethyl carbamate (EC) is a carcinogen widely found in the fermentation process of Baijiu. Herein, we construct a molecularly imprinted polymers/MXene/cobalt (II) based zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (MIP/MXene/ZIF-67) nano-enzyme sensor for the detection of EC during Baijiu production. The ZIF-67 is synthesized in situ on the MXene nanosheets to provide a superior catalytic activity to H2O2 and amplify the electrochemical signal. The MIP is prepared by the polymerization reaction to recognize EC. Owing to the interaction between EC and EC-MIP, the interferences are effectively eliminated, greatly improving the accuracy of the expected outcome. This approach attains an ultrasensitive assay of EC ranging from 8.9 μg/L to 44.5 mg/L with detection limit of 0.405 μg/L. The accuracy of this method is confirmed by the recovery experiment with good recoveries from 95.07% to 107.41%. This method is applied in natural EC analyses, and the results are consistent with certified gas chromatograph- mass spectrometer.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin that can contaminate a variety of agricultural commodities, including fruit juices and wines. The capability of a magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) method with a magnetic metal-organic framework (MOF) material having a three-layer core-shell structure to improve the detection of OTA in food matrices using high performance liquid chromatography is described. Analysis of the material through X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated the successful synthesis of the magnetic nanomaterial Fe3O4@SiO2@UiO66-NH2. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Zetasizer lab indicated its nano-sized morphological features. The conditions affecting the magnetic solid-phase extraction procedure, such as material dosage, pH, composition and amount of eluent, desorption solution and desorption time were investigated to obtain the optimal extraction conditions. Under optimized conditions, the recoveries of spiked analytes at three different concentrations ranged from 95.83 to 101.5%, and the relative standard deviations were below 5%. Coupling with HPLC allowed the limit of detection to be 0.3 μg kg-1. This method is simple and specific, and can effectively avoid the influence of coexisting elements and improve the sensitivity of determination through fast MSPE of OTA. It has broad development prospects in OTA detection pre-treatment.

Abstract
Developing ultrasensitive sensing platforms for trace ochratoxin A (OTA) in food safety is still challenging. Herein, we presented a novel dual-mode sensing strategy for fluorescence and colorimetric detection of OTA by combining the target-responsive hemin-encapsulated and copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) functionalized DNA hydrogel. Through simple assembly and in situ synthesis methods, fluorescence CuNCs are synthesized and modified on the 3D hydrophilic network structure of DNA cross-linked. OTA specifically recognized by Apt-linker can control the collapse of hydrogel, resulting in the fluorescence quenching of CuNCs and release of coated hemin. Interestingly, OTA could trigger Apt-linker conformational changes to form G-quadruplex structures, allowing the released hemin to form G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme via self-assembly. Fluorescence signal amplification could be achieved through further fluorescence quenching of CuNCs caused by DNAzyme-catalyzed hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) because of the peroxidase activity of DNAzyme. Simultaneously, DNAzyme could catalyze the H2O2-mediated oxidation of TMB to provide colorimetric signal. Thereafter, the DNA-CuNCs hydrogel exhibited low detection limits of 3.49 pg/mL in fluorescence mode and 0.25 ng/mL in colorimetric modality. Real sample analyses of foodstuffs showed satisfactory results, providing prospective potential for monitoring mycotoxin contaminant.

Abstract
Since ochratoxin A (OTA) is immunotoxic, teratogenic and carcinogenic, it is very important to monitor this compound in food samples. In the present work, the development and fabrication of a label-free electrochemical aptasensor based on the gold nanoparticles/silver-based metal-organic framework (AuNPs/Ag-MOF) for the determination of ochratoxin A (OTA) is introduced. The aptasensor was fabricated by electrodeposition of AuNPs on a glassy carbon electrode modified with Ag-MOF. The characteristics of the synthesized Ag-MOF were determined by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-Visible spectroscopy. The aptamer was immobilized on the modified electrode and then OTA was incubated on it. The process of different stages of the aptasensor construction has been confirmed by two methods of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) and using [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- as a redox probe. The EIS method has also been used for the OTA quantitative determination. The difference in charge transfer resistance (Rct) before and after the interaction of OTA with the immobilized aptamer was considered as the analytical response of the aptasensor. Using the developed aptasensor, it is possible to measure OTA in the concentration range of 1.0 × 10-3 to 200.0 ng mL-1 with a detection limit of 2.2 × 10-4 ng mL-1. Finally, the ability of the aptasensor to measure OTA in red and black pepper was investigated and completely satisfactory results were obtained.

Abstract
A colorimetric sensor detects an analyte by utilizing the optical properties of the sensor unit, such as absorption or reflection, to generate a structural color that serves as the output signal to detect an analyte. Detecting the refractive index of an analyte by recording the color change of the sensor structure on its surface has several advantages, including simple operation, low cost, suitability for onsite analysis, and real-time detection. Colorimetric sensors have drawn much attention owing to their rapidity, simplicity, high sensitivity and selectivity. This Review discusses the use of colorimetric sensors in the food industry, including their applications for detecting food contaminants. The Review also provides insight into the scope of future research in this area.

Abstract
We proposed a visual strategy for rapid and ultrasensitive detection of ochratoxin A (OTA) by integration of primer-mediated exponential rolling circle amplification (P-ERCA) with a designed nucleic acid lateral flow strip (LFS). The recognition component was preimmobilized in the tube by hybridization between the immobilized functionalized aptamer and complementary ssDNA. Recognition of OTA induces the release of complementary ssDNA from the tube, which will also act as the primer of the designed P-ERCA. Three nicking sites on the template P-ERCA could contribute to the production of enormous signal probes based on the simultaneous amplification-nicking model, which can be visually measured directly with the constructed nucleic acid LFS. Importantly, the nicked signal probe can also act as the trigger of the new-round RCA, achieving exponential growth of signal probes for measurement and signal enhancement. Taking advantage of the extraordinary amplification efficiency of P-ERCA and the simplicity of LFS, this P-ERCA-LFS method demonstrates ultrasensitive detection of OTA with a visual limit of detection as low as 100 fg/mL for qualitative screening and a limit of detection of 35 fg/mL for semiquantitative analysis. This designed strategy could also be utilized as a universal method for detection of other chemical analytes with the replacement of the aptamer for recognition, and the nucleic acid LFS unit could also be a useful protocol for direct ssDNA analysis.

Abstract
An ochratoxin A (OTA) electrochemical biosensor based on a cascade signal amplification strategy with Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) and ring opening polymerization (ROP) was constructed. The large specific surface area of AgNPs was used to increase the loading of OTA aptamer on the electrode surface, enhancing the ability to capture OTA as a way to achieve the first signal amplification. The OTA antibody modified with polyethylenimine specifically recognizes the OTA, forming an aptamer-OTA-antibody sandwich structure. The amino group on polyethylenimine initiates the ROP reaction with α-amino acid-n-carboxylic anhydride-ferrocene (NCA-Fc) as the monomer. A large number of electrochemical signal units of ferrocene are introduced into the sensing system for a second signal amplification. By amplifying the signal twice, the sensitivity of the sensor is improved. Under the optimal conditions, the detection range of the sensor is 1 pg·mL-1 ~ 1 μg·mL-1, while the detection limit is as low as 117 fg·mL-1. Moreover, the sensor has the advantages of high sensitivity, good stability and selectivity. Standard addition recovery experiment proved that the sensing system can be successfully used for the detection of OTA in four actual samples with recoveries in the range 90.0 to 113% with RSDs of 0.6 to 5.2%, providing a new idea for the pollution assessment of mycotoxins.

A simple and robust aptasensor assembled on surfactant-mediated liquid crystal interface for ultrasensitive detection of mycotoxin. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1270:341478. [PMID: 37311610 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.341478] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2023] [Revised: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Here, a simple aptasensing approach is represented to sensitively detect ochratoxin A (OTA) as one of the most perilous mycotoxins with carcinogenic, nephrotoxic, teratogenic, and immunosuppressive sequels on human health. The aptasensor is based on the alteration in the orientational order of liquid crystal (LC) molecules at the surfactant-arranged interface. Homeotropic alignment of LCs is achieved by the interaction of the surfactant tail with LCs. By perturbing the alignment of LCs due to the electrostatic interaction of the aptamer strand with the surfactant head, a colorful polarized view of the aptasensor substrate is induced drastically. While OTA causes the re-orientation of LCs to a vertical state by forming an OTA-aptamer complex that induces darkness of the substrate. This study shows that the length of the aptamer strand impacts the efficiency of the aptasensor; longer strand results in the greater disruption of LCs, and therefore, increases the aptasensor sensitivity. Hence, the aptasensor can determine OTA in the linear concentration range of 0.1 fM-1 pM as low as 0.021 fM. The aptasensor is capable to monitor OTA in grape juice, coffee drink, corn, and human serum real samples. The proposed LC-based aptasensor provides a cost-effective, easy-to-carry, operator-independent, and user-friendly array with great potential to develop portable sensing gadgets for food quality control and health care monitoring.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a powerful mycotoxin present in a variety of food products, and its detection is important for human health. Here, a fluorescent aptasensor is reported for sensitive OTA determination. Specifically, the surface of bio-inspired passion fruit-like dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres-enriched quantum dots (MSNQs-apt) was first modified with the OTA aptamer as the recognition unit and fluorescence emitter, while the aptamer-complementary DNA (MNPs-cDNA) was linked with the magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as the separation element. In the range of 2.56 pg/mL to 8 ng/mL, the proposed aptasensor exhibited satisfactory linearity and a detection limit of 1.402 pg/mL. The developed aptasensor achieved recoveries of 90.98-103.20% and 94.33-107.57 % in red wine and wheat flour samples, respectively. By simply replacing the aptamer, this aptasensor can be easily extended to detection of other analytes, suggesting its potential as a universal detection platform for mycotoxins in food products.

A Novel Electrochemiluminescence Immunosensor Based on Resonance Energy Transfer between g-CN and NU-1000(Zr) for Ultrasensitive Detection of Ochratoxin A in Coffee. Foods 2023; 12:foods12040707. [PMID: 36832782 PMCID: PMC9955951 DOI: 10.3390/foods12040707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2022] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunosensor based on nanobody heptamer and resonance energy transfer (RET) between g-C3N4 (g-CN) and NU-1000(Zr) was proposed for ultrasensitive ochratoxin A (OTA) detection. First, OTA heptamer fusion protein was prepared by fusing OTA-specific nanometric (Nb28) with a c-terminal fragment of C4 binding protein (C4bpα) (Nb28-C4bpα). Then, Nb28-C4bpα heptamer with the high affinity used as a molecular recognition probe, of which plenty of binding sites were provided for OTA-Apt-NU-1000(Zr) nanocomposites, thereby improving the immunosensors' sensitivity. In addition, the quantitative analysis of OTA can be achieved by using the signal quenching effect of NU-1000(Zr) on g-CN. As the concentration of OTA increases, the amount of OTA-Apt-NU-1000(Zr) fixed on the electrode surface decreases. RET between g-CN and NU-1000(Zr) is weakened leading to the increase of ECL signal. Thus, OTA content is indirectly proportional to ECL intensity. Based on the above principle, an ultra-sensitive and specific ECL immunosensor for OTA detection was constructed by using heptamer technology and RET between two nanomaterials, with a range from 0.1 pg/mL to 500 ng/mL, and the detection limit of only 33 fg/mL. The prepared ECL-RET immunosensor showed good performance and can be successfully used for the determination of OTA content in real coffee samples, suggesting that the nanobody polymerization strategy and the RET effect between NU-1000(Zr) and g-CN can provide an alternative for improving the sensitivity of important mycotoxin detection.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is an important mycotoxin detected in edible oil, and it can be effectively removed by classical edible oil refining processes. However, the fate of OTA in the refining process has not been reported. In this study, we systematically tracked the OTA changes during the oil refining process by fortifying 100 μg/kg OTA in crude rapeseed oil. Results showed that about 10.57%, 88.85%, and 0.58% of OTA were removed during the degumming, deacidification, and decolorization processes. Among them, 16.25% OTA was transferred to the byproducts, including 9.85% in degumming wastewater, 5.68% in soap stock, 0.14% in deacidification wastewater, and 0.58% in the decolorizer; 83.75% OTA was found to transform into the lactone ring opened OTA (OP-OTA) during the deacidification stage, which is attributed to the hydrolysis of the lactone ring of OTA in the alkali refining. The OP-OTA was verified to distribute in the soap stock, and small amounts of OP-OTA could be transferred to deacidified wastewater when the OTA pollution level reached 500 μg/kg in crude rapeseed oil. The OP-OTA exhibited strong toxicity, especially nephrotoxicity, as reflected by the cell viability assay and in silico toxicity. Therefore, the safety of the soap stock processing products from OTA-contaminated rapeseed deserves attention.

Abstract
Developing robust and sensitive food safety detection methods is important for human health. Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a powerful analytical technique for complete separation of input source (electricity) and output signal (light), thereby significantly reducing background ECL signal. ECL biosensors have attracted considerable attention owing to their high sensitivity and wide dynamic range in food safety detection. In this review, we introduce the principles of ECL biosensors and common ECL luminophores, as well as the latest applications of ECL biosensors in food analysis. Further, novel nanomaterial assembly strategies have been progressively incorporated into the design of ECL biosensors, and by demonstrating some representative works, we summarize the development status of ECL biosensors in detection of mycotoxins, heavy metal ions, antibiotics, pesticide residues, foodborne pathogens, and other illegal additives. Finally, the current challenges faced by ECL biosensors are outlined and the future directions for advancing ECL research are presented.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) contamination of corn has received significant attention due to the wide distribution and high toxicity of OTA. The maximum residue limit standard of OTA in corn has been established by the Chinese Government and other unions. Nanoparticle-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) assays are promising methods for the sensitive and fast detection of OTA. However, satisfactory detection sensitivity is commonly achieved with complicated signal amplification processes or specific nanoparticle morphologies, which means that these assays are not conducive to fast detection. This study proposes a simple and novel strategy to improve the sensitivity of FRET aptasensors. In this strategy, a DNA tetrahedron was first used in gold nanorod-based FRET aptasensors. DNA tetrahedron-modified gold nanorods are used as fluorescent acceptors, and Cy5-modified complementary sequences of the OTA aptamer are used as fluorescent donors. The aptamers of OTA are embedded in the DNA tetrahedrons, and FRET occurs when the aptamers hybridize with the Cy5-modified complementary sequences. The aptamer-integrated DNA tetrahedron modified on the surface of gold nanorods acts as an anchor, thus avoiding the crowding and entanglement of aptamers. Due to the competitive combination between the OTA aptamers and complementary sequences, the greater the amount of OTA, the less the amount of Cy5-modified complementary sequences that bind with the aptamers and the less the amount of Cy5 that is quenched. Thus, the fluorescence intensity is positively related to the OTA concentration. In this study, in the concentration range of 0.01-10 ng/mL, the fluorescence intensity was found to be linearly related to the logarithmic concentration of OTA. The limit of detection was calculated to be 0.005 ng/mL. The specificity of the developed biosensor was demonstrated to be efficient. The accuracy and stability of the developed aptasensor were also tested, and the method exhibited good performance in real samples.

Abstract
We developed a new ochratoxin A (OTA) aptamer biosensor to promptly detect OTA in food. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) were used as carriers, and aptamers were used as recognition probes and gating molecules. The fluorescent dye Rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) was loaded into mesoporous silica, and through electrostatic contact, the OTA aptamer was adsorbed on amino-modified mesoporous silica. The fluorescent dye released from the mesopore in the presence of OTA because of the conformational change induced in the aptamer by the target. The amount of ochratoxin was determined by measuring the fluorescence intensity. Our findings revealed a positive relationship between the fluorescence intensity and OTA concentration, with a limit of detection of 0.28 ng mL-1, and the detection range was 0.05-200 ng mL-1. The recovery rate was 80.7%-110.8% in real samples. The proposed approach is suitable for the quantification of other toxins.

Abstract
Electrochemical sensor has great potential in the detection of small molecules by virtues of low cost, fast response, and easy to miniaturization. However, electrochemical sensing of ochratoxin A (OTA) was seriously hindered by the heavy electrode-fouling effect and poor electrochemical activity inherent from OTA molecular. Herein, two-dimensional titanium carbide (2D Ti3C2) MXene incorporated with carboxylic multiwalled carbon nanotubes (cMWCNTs) was developed as a glassy carbon electrode modifier for rapid and sensitive detection of OTA. Physical characterizations combined with electrochemical techniques revealed that cMWCNTs can not only prevent the restacking of 2D Ti3C2nanosheets but also facile its electron transfer, leading to a nanohybrid with a high specific surface and good electrocatalytic activity to OTA. Under optimal conditions, the electrochemical sensor showed a good linear response to OTA in a concentration range from 0.09 to 10μmol·l-1and a low detection limit (LOD) of 0.028μmol·l-1. The proposed sensor was impelled successive times to detect OTA, a good repeatability was obtained, indicating the constructed sensor possessed good anti-fouling property. Moreover, satisfactory recoveries between 91.8% and 103.2% were obtained in the real sample analysis of grape and beer, showing that the developed sensing technique is reliable for the screening of trace OTA in food resources.

Abstract
Safety and quality are key issues for the food industry. Consequently, there is growing demand to preserve the food chain and products against substances toxic, harmful to human health, such as contaminants, allergens, toxins, or pathogens. For this reason, it is mandatory to develop highly sensitive, reliable, rapid, and cost-effective sensing systems/devices, such as electrochemical sensors/biosensors. Generally, conventional techniques are limited by long analyses, expensive and complex procedures, and skilled personnel. Therefore, developing performant electrochemical biosensors can significantly support the screening of food chains and products. Here, we report some of the recent developments in this area and analyze the contributions produced by electrochemical biosensors in food screening and their challenges.

Abstract
Nowadays, contamination of various mycotoxins in crops and their products exposes increasing risks to human health. Efficient determination methods are urgently needed. Herein, a bifunctional aptamer and a simple aptasensor based on microscale thermophoresis assay (MST) were constructed for the first time for simultaneous determination of two mycotoxins, i.e. zearalenone (ZEN) and ochratoxin A (OTA). The bifunctional aptamer was engineered by splicing a ZEN aptamer and an OTA aptamer with a linker according to the structure analysis of aptamers. The binding mechanism of the bifunctional aptamer to ZEN and OTA were revealed basing on the molecular docking studies. The MST assay proved that the bifunctional aptamer showed high affinity and specificity towards ZEN and OTA. Furthermore, a bifunctional aptamer-based MST-aptasensor was developed for simultaneous detection of ZEN and OTA in corn oil sample. The MST-aptasensor provided a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.12 nM, with satisfactory recoveries of 93.31-104.19% and excellent selectivity, indicating that the bifunctional aptamer and MST-aptasensor had great potential in practical applications.

Abstract
Mycotoxins are toxic compounds naturally produced by certain types of fungi. The contamination of mycotoxins can occur on numerous foodstuffs, including cereals, nuts, fruits, and spices, and pose a major threat to humans and animals by causing acute and chronic toxic effects. In this regard, reliable techniques for accurate and sensitive detection of mycotoxins in agricultural products and food samples are urgently needed. As an advanced analytical tool, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), presents several major advantages, such as ultrahigh sensitivity, rapid detection, fingerprint-type information, and miniaturized equipment. Benefiting from these merits, rapid growth has been observed under the topic of SERS-based mycotoxin detection. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the recent achievements in this area. The progress of SERS-based label-free detection, aptasensor, and immunosensor, as well as SERS combined with other techniques, has been summarized, and in-depth discussion of the remaining challenges has been provided, in order to inspire future development of translating the techniques invented in scientific laboratories into easy-to-operate analytic platforms for rapid detection of mycotoxins.

Abstract
The association of a mycotoxin-ochratoxin A (OTA)-with a high-affinity DNA aptamer (anti-OTA) immobilized on a functionalized surface has been investigated at the molecular level. Anti-OTA aptamers are coupled by aminolysis in several steps on an acid-terminated alkyl monolayer grafted on a silicon substrate, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy in attenuated total reflection geometry is used to assess the immobilization of anti-OTA (in its unfolded single-strand form) and determine its areal density (ca. 1.4/nm2). IR spectra further demonstrate that the OTA/anti-OTA association is efficient and selective and that several association/dissociation cycles may be conducted on the same surface. The areal density of OTA measured after association on the surface (IR spectroscopy) and after dissociation from the surface (UV-vis spectroscopy) falls in the range 0.16-0.3/nm2 which is close to the areal density of a closed-packed monolayer of anti-OTA aptamers folded to form their G-quadruplex structure. The interactions between OTA and its aptamer at the surface are discussed with the help of density functional theory calculations-to identify the complex IR vibrational modes of OTA in solution-and UV-vis spectroscopy-to determine the protonation state of the adsorbing species (i.e., OTA dissolved in the buffer solution).
