This application note describes a rapid and sensitive LC/MS/MS method for the detection and analysis of four aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, and G2) that provides detection down to 1 ppb. The 500 Ion Trap MS/MS capabilities result in the collection of clear, baseline resolved chromatographic peaks for target compound quantitation.
The document presents an analytical method for the detection and analysis of four carcinogenic mycotoxins: aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2. The study utilizes a rapid Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) approach to achieve high sensitivity with detection limits down to 1 ppb.
The method provides detection down to 1 ppb.
The four aflatoxins were separated and identified in less than 15 minutes.
Calibration curves are linear from 1 to 50 ppb.
