19 Analytical Procedures
19.1 Extraction
Rice, corn, wheat, soy and peanut: weigh-take 20.00 g of rice, corn, wheat and soy
grinded sample which is sieved through 0.85 mm sieve mesh (peanut grinded sample
shall be sieved through 2 mm sieve mesh). Place the sample into a conical flask with
a stopper. Add 80 mL of methanol - sodium chloride solution (90 + 10). Conduct
oscillation for 30 min, then, filter it. Gather 40 mL of the sample solution (in terms of
soy and peanut sample, take 20 mL of the sample solution, then, add 20 mL of
extracting solution); transfer it into a 250 mL separating funnel. Add 25 mL of sodium
chloride solution (the volume ratio of methanol and water shall be 55 + 45) and 25 mL
of petroleum ether. Shake it for 2 min, then, place it still for stratification. Place the
upper layer of petroleum ether solution into a conical flask; transfer the lower layer of
solution into the previous separating funnel. Then, use 25 mL of petroleum ether to
extract once. In the end, combine the respectively obtained upper layer of petroleum
ether solution; add 25 mL of methanol - sodium chloride solution (55 + 45) [in terms of
soy and peanut sample, add 25 mL of methanol - sodium chloride solution (70 + 30);
shake it for 30 s]. Combine the lower layer into the previous methanol aqueous layer.
Repeatedly use methanol - sodium chloride solution (55 + 45) to extract twice [in terms
of soy and peanut sample, repeatedly use methanol - sodium chloride solution (70 +
30) to extract once], so as to extract sterigmatocystin in that layer. After combining the
lower layer of solution, add 30 mL of trichloromethane (in terms of soy and peanut
sample, except from adding trichloromethane, add 13 mL of sodium chloride solution;
the volume ratio of methanol and water shall be 55 + 45); shake it for 2 min, then, place
it still. When the upper layer of turbid liquid becomes partially pellucid, use quantitative
expand to around 9 cm; take it out to evaporate it.
19.2.1.3.2 Vertical expansion: developing solvent is 15 mL of benzene - methanol -
glacial acetic acid (90 + 8 + 2 or 92.5 + 6 + 1.5). Place the side that is closer to the
standard point and the sample solution point into the slot, then, expand to around 9
cm; take it out to evaporate it.
19.2.1.4 Fluorescence developing
On a thin-layer plate, spray aluminum trichloride - ethanol solution (200 g/L); heat it up
at 80 °C for 10 min. Then, immediately observe the result under ultraviolet light
(wavelength 365 nm). After the thin-layer plate cools down, thinly spray for the second
time (no need for heating), then, directly observe the result.
19.2.1.5 Observe and evaluate the result
Observe under ultraviolet light. If the second point of the second plate displays the
minimum detection amount in corresponding area of the standard point, but in the
same position on the first plate, fluorescent point does not emerge, then, the content
of sterigmatocystin in the sample is 5 μg/kg (in terms of soy and peanut sample, the
content of sterigmatocystin is 20 μg/kg). If the emerging fluorescence intensity is
equivalent to the fluorescence intensity of the minimum detection amount of the
standard point, and this florescence point overlaps with the standard point of the
second plate of sample solution, then, the content of sterigmatocystin in the sample is
5 μg/kg (in terms of soy and peanut sample, the content of sterigmatocystin is 20 μg/kg).
If the emerging fluorescence intensity is stronger than the minimum detection amount
of the standard point, then, in accordance with the estimated fluorescence intensity,
decrease the microliter drops being added, or, dilute the sample solution, then, add
drops of different microliters, till the fluorescence intensity of the sample solution point
is consistent with the fluorescence intensity of the minimum detection amount. After
spraying aluminum trichloride for the first time and the second time, respectively
observe and evaluate the result; the two results shall be consistent. If the result is
positive, place the thin-layer plate in the dark for 10 min, then, observe once. If the
sample is still positive, conduct further confirmatory test. Namely, on a baseline, which
is at a distance of 3 cm from the lower end of the thin-layer plate (10 cm 18.5 cm),
dropwise add 1 point of 10 μL of the standard service solution (0.4 μg/mL) and 3 points
of sample solution, 16 μL per point. On 1 point of the sample solution, dropwise add
10 μL of the standard service solution (0.4 μg/mL); on the other point, dropwise add
10 μL of the standard service solution (1 μg/mL). On each point, add a small drop of
trifluoroacetate; place it in the dark to react for 10 min; use hot wind to blow it for 5 min,
so that the temperature of the thin-layer plate is not higher than 40 °C. Use glacial
acetic acid - benzene (10 + 90) to expand it for 1 ~ 2 times, till the derivative of
sterigmatocystin is separated from impurities. During the expansion, keep it away from
light. The subsequent fluorescence developing step is the same as 19.2.1.4. In the end,
observe the plate under ultraviolet light: if the sample solution is positive, derivative
which overlaps with the sterigmatocystin standard shall be generated. The minimum
