Abstract

Post-column fluorimetric detection for the determination of aflatoxins Q1, P1 and B1 was carried out by using HPLC with a 2.0 mm id column. The post-column reagent consisted of a 10–2M aqueous solution of heptakis-di-O-methyl-β-cyclodextrin. The fluorescence enhancement achieved was 37- and 27-fold for AFQ1 and AFB1, respectively, whereas the AFP1 signal was increased just about 2-fold. With the proposed method, aflatoxins Q1, P1 and B1 can be simultaneously determined in human urine. The detection limits (S/N = 3) were as follows: 0.7 ng ml–1 for AFQ1, 0.5 ng ml–1 for AFP1 and 0.3 ng ml–1 for AFB1.
