Simultaneous determination of beauvericin, enniatins, and fusaproliferin by high performance liquid chromatography

J Agric Food Chem. 2000 Aug;48(8):3317-20. doi: 10.1021/jf990373n.

Abstract

A rapid, sensitive and inexpensive HPLC method for routine screening of beauvericin, fusaproliferin, and enniatin B(1), A(1), and B has been optimized. Detection limits were determined, ranging between 0. 5 and 3.6 ng according to the compound obtained after spiking samples with each mycotoxin at 10-56 microg/mL concentration range; recoveries averaging from 56 to 74% were obtained. LC-MS conditions for enniatin analyses by API electrospray technique were set up, this allowing a unique identification of three different enniatins.
