The immunoaffinity column can
selectively adsorb fumonisin (FB1, FB2, FB3) from the sample solution, thereby
having a highly targeted purification effect on the sample. The sample solution
that has been purified by passing through the column can be directly used for
LC- MS/MS analysis after concentrating with nitrogen gas and resuspended or for
HPLC analysis after derivatization.
Affinity columns can be used
in combination with HPLC or LC- MS/MS to achieve rapid testing, and to increase
signal-to-noise ratio and improve the accuracy of the detection method.

Fumonisin is a metabolite
produced by Fusarium fungi. It has acute and chronic
toxicities and is species-specific and organ specific. Studies have found that
high concentrations of fumonisin can cause acute species-specific toxicity symptoms in many domestic and laboratory animals, such
as equine leukoencephalomalacia, porcine pulmonary edema, and liver and
kidney diseases in sheep. The toxin has also been found to be related to
esophageal and liver cancer in humans.
The basis of the measurement
is the antigen-antibody reaction. Antibodies are connected to the column and
the fumonisin in the sample is extracted, filtered, and diluted, and then
passed slowly through the Ochratoxin A immunoaffinity column. The toxins bind to the antibodies in
the column and the immunoaffinity column is then washed to remove other
unrelated substances that have not been bound. Fumonisin is then eluted with
methanol and injected into an analytical instrument for detection.
