Abstract:
For the first time, the possibility of using stripping voltammetry for the simultaneous determination of aflatoxins В1 and М1 on a glassy-carbon electrode has been shown. The influence of various factors (Еэ, τэ, w, and the nature of the background electrolyte) on the potential and magnitude of the oxidation current of mycotoxins has been estimated. Working conditions for voltammetric determination and reproducibility of analytical signals for two mycotoxins have been selected. The mutual influence of aflatoxins В1 and М1 on the value of analytical signals in their simultaneous presence has been studied. It has been found that, in the range of their detectable contents, the presence of aflatoxin В1 reduces the analytical signal of aflatoxin М1 by 45-50%, but the linearity of the calibration dependence is preserved. The content of aflatoxin М1 in determination of aflatoxin B1 does not exert a significant effect in the range of 10-15%. Based on the results obtained, a procedure has been proposed for determining the content of aflatoxins В1 and М1 in their joint presence in milk by voltammetry in the concentration ranges 2 × 10-3 ÷ 2 × 10-1 mg/dm3 and 2 × 10-4 ÷ 2 × 10-2 mg/dm3, respectively (Sr not more than 18%).
