TY - JOUR A1 - Neuhof, Torsten A1 - Koch, Matthias A1 - Rasenko, Tatjana A1 - Nehls, Irene T1 - Occurrence of zearalenone in wheat kernels infected with Fusarium culmorum JF - World mycotoxin journal N2 - The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of zearalenone in wheat kernels contaminated with this mycotoxin. Kernels from a sample of a wheat harvest affected by Fusarium culmorum were sorted into six groups according to their visual attributes. Milled portions of these groups were analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence and diode array detection. The clean-up was performed with an immunoaffinity column after methanol/water (4:1, v/v) extraction. The zearalenone content of the unsorted kernel fraction was 74 µg/kg. The group of healthy-looking kernels was contaminated with only 6 µg/kg of zearalenone. The groups of kernels that appeared shrunken and chalky white, damage routinely caused by Fusarium, were contaminated with 170 and 117 µg/kg, respectively. A remarkably high level of zearalenone contamination, 2,184 µg/kg, was observed for the group of reddish kernels. An association between the presence of the red pigment aurofusarin and high levels of zearalenone was found. Therefore, this pigment may be used as a marker of high zearalenone content.

The summation parameter total petrol hydrocarbon (TPH) is defined according to ISO 16703:2004 with regard to the sample preparation to be applied, the flame ionisation detection (FID) and the boiling range of C10–C40 to be integrated. Comprehensive tests of homogeneity and stability have been carried out on the candidate material using appropriate models. The outcome of the study served as the basis for the certification of the candidate reference material as ERM-CC015a. The certified mass fraction is 1,820±130mgkg-1 and traceability was established by using an appropriate calibration standard certified for the mass fraction of C10–C40. The interlaboratory scatter of measurement results in this exercise can largely be explained by the variability of the individual calibrations based on this common calibration standard.

EOX ist ein für die rasche Bewertung der Organochlor- Belastung kontaminationsverdächtiger Flächen wertvoller Summenparameter, der sämtliche mit organischen Lösungsmittel extrahierbare Organohalogenverbindungen erfasst. Gegenwärtig existiert jedoch kein für die Bodenanalytik genormtes Verfahren für die Durchführung von EOX-Bestimmungen. Daher wird in der Praxis auf das für Schlämme und Sedimente entwickelte Verfahren nach DIN 38414 S17 (1990) zurückgegriffen, so auch in der Bundesbodenschutz- und Altlasten-Verordung (BBodSchV). Literaturangaben und Erfahrungen mit der Wiederfindungsrate polarer Extraktionsmittel und moderner Extraktionsverfahren bei Organochlorpestiziden, die eine bedeutende Quelle für EOX in Schlämmen und Böden darstellen, lassen vermuten, dass das genannte Normverfahren systematisch zu Unterbefunden neigen könnte. Für die Untersuchungen wurden an der BAM entwickelte Boden-Referenzmaterialien mit "natürlicher", über jahrzehntelangen Eintrag entstandener DDT- und Lindan-Belastung verwendet. Neben den klassischen Extraktionsverfahren nach Soxhlet kamen die ultraschallunterstützte Extraktion, die Mikrowellen- und die beschleunigte Lösungsmittelextraktion (ASE) jeweils mit Lösungsmitteln unterschiedlicher Polarität zum Einsatz. Extraktionsausbeuten und Wiederholpräzision der einzelnen Varianten wurden verglichen und vor dem Hintergrund der Ergebnisse unabhängiger Verfahren wie der gaschromatographischen Bestimmung der einzelnen Organochlorverbindungen bewertet. Die Polarität des Extraktionsmittels weist auch bei trockenen Böden den größten Einfluss auf die Extraktionsausbeuten der in den untersuchten Proben enthaltenen Organochlorverbindungen auf. Die Mischung Hexan/Aceton (1:1), die sich für die Extraktion verschiedener organischer Parameter bewährt hat, ist hinsichtlich der EOX-Analytik der existierenden Norm überlegen.

These toxic substances undergo different transformation reactions during storage and cereal processing. One of these reactions is the addition of water to a double bond in the ergoline skeleton. Since light is required for this process, the substances formed were named lumi-ergot alkaloids. From these, a new asymmetric carbon and consequently two epimers with different polarities are formed. For investigations of lumi-ergot alkaloids, ergometrine was used exemplarily as it represents one of the six ergot alkaloids predominantly formed by Claviceps purpurea. The main reaction product, the less polar compound of the two lumiergometrine epimers, was separated by HPLC and unambiguously identified as 10-(S)-lumi-ergometrine using X-ray structural analysis. A HPLC-MS/MS method was developed for the detection of this substance in sclerotia extracts. Using this method, the existence of both epimeric forms of lumiergometrine could be proved in the sclerotia. This is the first time that the existence of a lumi-transformation product of ergot alkaloids was proved in naturally grown samples.

Therefore, multi-mycotoxin methods have been developed in the last couple of years. To enlarge these methods for further analytes, we have developed a LC-MS/MS method for the quantification of the mycotoxin aurofusarin. Additionally, further LC-MSn experiments were performed to demonstrate the fragmentation pattern of aurofusarin. Applicable multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) transitions of aurofusarin were found and optimized by parameter variation of the tandem mass spectrometer. The applicability of the developed method was tested by analysis of naturally contaminated wheat.

The specific characteristics of reference materials employed in the process of demonstrating equivalence between laboratories in the course of proficiency testing as well as the development, comparison and validation of methods are elaborated. The demand is for series of appropriately characterised samples which are fit for the purpose and it is seen from representative examples that the utilisation of such tailor-made RM designed to tackle the specific need of an analytical problem dominates over certified matrix reference materials in this context. Concluding, the role of certified matrix reference materials in quality assurance is briefly looked at both from the user’s and providers’ points of view.

A1 - Nehls, Irene T1 - In vitro cultured lung cancer cells are not suitable for animal-based breath biomarker detection JF - Journal of breath research N2 - In vitro cultured lung cancer cell lines were investigated regarding the possible identification of volatile organic compounds as potential biomarkers. Gas samples from the headspace of pure culture medium and from the cultures of human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines A549 and Lu7466 were exposed to polypropylene fleece in order to absorb odour components. Sniffer dogs were trained with loaded fleeces of both cell lines, and honey bees were trained with fleeces exposed to A549. Afterwards, their ability to distinguish between cell-free culture medium odour and lung cancer cell odour was tested. Neither bees nor dogs were able to discriminate between odours from the cancer cell cultures and the pure culture medium. Solid phase micro extraction followed by gas chromatography with mass selective detection produced profiles of volatiles from the headspace offered to the animals. The profiles from the cell lines were largely similar; distinct differences were based on the decrease of volatile culture medium components due to the cells' metabolic activity. In summary, cultured lung cancer cell lines do not produce any biomarkers recognizable by animals or gas chromatographic analysis.

Therefore, the presence of VOCs in solid HTC products obtained from wheat straw, biogas digestate and four woody materials was investigated using headspace gas chromatography. A variety of potentially harmful benzenic, phenolic and furanic volatiles along with various aldehydes and ketones were identified in feedstock- and temperature-specific patterns. The total amount of VOCs observed after equilibration between headspace and char samples produced at 270 °C ranged between 2000 and 16,000 µg/g (0.2–1.6 wt.%). Depending on feedstock 50–9000 µg/g of benzenes and 300–1800 µg/g of phenols were observed. Substances potentially harmful to soil ecology such as benzofurans (200–800 µg/g) and p-cymene (up to 6000 µg/g in pine wood char) exhibited concentrations that suggest restrained application of fresh hydrochar as soil amendment or for water purification.

HTC runs revealed that TOC loads were largely unaffected by process severity or type of feedstock whereas the C2–C6 fatty acids, determined by GC, displayed clear effects of temperature and feedstock. HPLC demonstrated simultaneously the initial increase and subsequent consumption of cellulose-derived furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural as well as the increase of the lignin-derived 2-methoxyphenol. 2-Methylbenzofuran, an example for a substance potentially harmful to aquatic biota, was observed in high concentration in the HTC liquor from wheat straw-based feedstocks.

A case study concerned with groundwater contaminated with perchloroethylene, trichloroethylene and 1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane including their degradation products which involves private contract laboratories and an independent provider of quality assurance (QA) is presented. The experience gained with biannual monitoring campaigns over 14 years indicates that the selection of contractors on basis of accreditation status and successful performance in interlaboratory comparisons are not sufficient. Rather the auditing of the contractors by the QA provider prior to each campaign and the crosschecking of selected monitoring samples by the QA provider led to a lasting improvement of reliability in the contractors' measurement results. A mean deviation of 20% from the reference value determined by the QA provider for the crosschecked samples was reached.

HBCD isomers were quantified using HPLC-MS/MS (ESI-) after separation on a combination of a reversed phase and a chiral analytical column. The degradation of all six isomers followed first-order kinetics and the estimated half-lives ranged from 6.3 min for both β-HBCD enantiomers to 32.3 min in case of (+)-γ-HBCD. (+)-α- and (–)-γ-HBCD displayed significantly shorter half-lives than their corresponding antipodes. It could be shown that this degradation led to a significant enrichment of the first eluting enantiomers (–)-α- and (+)-γ-HBCD. Individual patterns of mono- and dihydroxylated derivatives obtained from each α- and γ-HBCD enantiomer were seen to be distinctly characteristic. The patterns of monohydroxylated HBCD derivatives detected in liver and muscle tissues of pollack, mackerel and in herring gull eggs were largely similar to those observed in the in vitro experiments with rat liver microsomes. This enabled individual hydroxy-HBCDs to be assigned to their respective parent HBCD enantiomers.

Es wurden Untersuchungen zu den Verfahrensschritten Extraktion, Extraktreinigung, Messung und Integration durchgeführt. Im Ergebnis der Untersuchungen wurde festgestellt, dass die Extraktion von Feststoffproben (20 g) mit einem Extraktionsvolumen von mind. 40 mL Aceton und 20 mL n-Heptan erfolgen muss, um eine zufriedenstellende Extraktionsausbeute zu gewährleisten. Im Rahmen dieses Projektes wurde ein Rechenprogramm für die Bestimmung der Rest- Aceton-Konzentration in Heptan-Extrakten erstellt. Mit diesem Programm können auch die Wasservolumina ermittelt werden, die für eine gewünschte Rest-Aceton-Konzentration notwendig sind. Anhand von Bodenextrakten, PAK-, Stearylstearat- und Triglycerid-Standardlösungen wurde nachgewiesen, dass die Säulen-Technik eine wesentlich effektivere Extraktreinigung bewirkt als das sogenannte Batch-(Schüttel-) Verfahren. In einem Modellversuch an drei verschiedenen Bodenextrakten wurde gezeigt, dass die zwischen FGAA- und ISO-Verfahren unterschiedliche Art der Peak-Integration eines GC-FID Chromatogramms zwischen n-Dekan (C10) und n-Tetracontan (C40) keinen Einfluss auf das Endergebnis hat. Eine Basislinienkorrektur des Proben-Chromatogramms ist daher nicht erforderlich. Das FGAA-Verfahren enthält in seiner Vorschrift für die Berechnung des MKW-Gehalts im Probenmaterial einen systematischen Fehler von etwa 8 %. Dieser Fehler entsteht durch den Unterschied zwischen dem theoretischen Extraktvolumen von 150 mL und dem realen Extraktvolumen von etwa 139 mL. Dieser systematische Fehler sollte in einer nachfolgenden Fassung des FGAA-Verfahrens vermieden werden.

The transformation of DON to D3G through glucosylation is catalysed by plant enzymes, however, the exact circumstances are not well understood. In order to investigate the role of enzymatic glucosylation in germinating grains, DON treated kernels were steeped and germinated under laboratory conditions. Furthermore, the effect of malting on the DON content of the contaminated barley was investigated. In all cases, DON and its derivatives were quantified by HPLC-MS/MS before, during and after the experiments. Amongst the six tested cereals; wheat, rye, barley, spelt, and millet transformed DON to D3G during germination whilst the oats were inactive. For wheat, barley, and spelt the initial DON content was reduced by 50%, with the loss being almost entirely accounted for by D3G formation. As D3G might be cleaved during digestion, the elevated D3G concentration may obscure the toxicologically relevant DON content in processed food and beer. The germination process has a major influence on the 'masking' of DON, leading to high quantities of D3G that may be missed in common mycotoxin analyses.

T1 - Feasibility studies for the preparation and certification of reference materials - Part II: Mineral oil contaminated waste materials JF - Accreditation and quality assurance N2 - The 2-year international joint project HYCREF (Contract-No. G6RD-CT-2002-00854), funded by the European Commission in the 5th Framework programme, aimed to develop methods to prepare homogenous and stable water-, soil- and waste reference materials contaminated with mineral oil hydrocarbons and to test certify the mineral oil content by gas chromatographic methods. As mineral oil products are important sources for environmental contaminations, appropriate reference materials certified by using the new gas chromatographic methods (soil: ISO/FDIS 16703, waste: prEN 14039 and KW/04, water: ISO 9377-2) are highly needed. Additional to the HYCREF-results presented in part I–mineral contaminated soils–this second paper gives an overview of the feasibility study for the preparation and test certification of three waste reference materials (offshore marine sediment, building material and industrial waste). The following specifications, which had been defined in the project work plan, were reached successfully: uncertainty of the mineral oil content resulting from the certification exercise ≤ 5% and a between-bottle inhomogeneity of ≤ 3%. All three materials have been evaluated for long- and short term stability. They contain different levels and types of mineral oil and cover the full application range of ISO/FDIS 16703 and prEN 14039 (100–10,000 mg/kg). The expanded uncertainties U cert of the three materials are about 6%. In this way, they are comparable to ERM®-CC015a (U cert=7.1%, mineral oil in a river sediment) and are suited to close the present gap of commercially available CRM for mineral oil determination in waste.

The certified parameter is the ethanol mass concentration at 20 °C. When used in a wet bath simulator, the solutions deliver gas samples that meet the requirements set by the Organization of Legal Metrology for calibration of breathalyzers. The materials were prepared gravimetrically by spiking of ethanol into water in single 5 L units. A complete uncertainty budget for the preparation process has been established. The purity of the commercial ethanol stock solution was identified to be the main source of uncertainty. For stability and homogeneity measurements and for the verification of the gravimetric mass concentration of the CRMs, a robust high-precision gas chromatography, with flame-ionization detection method for ethanol determination in aqueous samples was developed and validated. The good performance of this method has been demonstrated in several international comparisons organized by the Consultative Committee for Amount of Substance-Metrology in Chemistry at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures.
