Rapid liquid chromatographic determination of aflatoxins M1 and M2 in artificially contaminated fluid milks: collaborative study
1986
Stubblefield, R.D. | Kwolek, W.F.
An international collaborative study involving 14 collaborators from 5 different countries was conducted to test a rapid liquid chromatographic (LC) method for detecting aflatoxins M1 and M2 in fluid milk. Each collaborator prepared artificially contaminated milk samples (0.078-1.31 ng M1/mL and 0.030-0.13 ng M2/mL) by adding solutions containing various concentrations of aflatoxins M1 and M2 to fresh milk. Recoveries ranged from 85.2 to 102.5% (av. 93.7%) for aflatoxin M1 and from 99.5 to 126.7% (av. 109.8%) for aflatoxin M2. Coefficients of variation averaged 21.4% (M1) and 35.9% (M2). An analysis of variance was calculated from combined data to determine variance components. The within-laboratory variations (So) (repeatability) were 27.9% (M1) and 23.9% (M2), and the among-laboratory variations (Sx) (reproducibility) were 44.5% (M1) and 64.7% (M2). No visual differences were determined between normal or reverse phase LC for contaminated samples; however, there were an insufficient number of collaborators using normal phase to give meaningful separate statistical data. For 26 observations of uncontaminated milk, 3 false M1 positives were reported for normal phase LC determinations and 2 false M1 positives were reported for reverse phase LC determinations. Three normal phase and 11 reverse phase false M2 positives were reported for 104 observations in uncontaminated milk. The reverse phase LC method for determination of aflatoxins M1 and M2 in fluid milk has been adopted official first action.
