Foodstuffs - Determination of ochratoxin A in pork meat and derived products by IAC clean-up and HPLC-FLD

This document describes a procedure for the determination of ochratoxin A (OTA) in pork products specifically ham, pork-based products (canned chopped pork) and pork liver using high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD).
The method has been validated for ochratoxin A in naturally contaminated ham, pork based products (canned chopped pork) and pork liver containing 0,5 μg/kg to 11 μg/kg [4], [5], [6].
Laboratory experiences have shown that this method is also applicable to pâté and kidney [4].

Lebensmittel - Bestimmung von Ochratoxin A in Schweinefleisch und Schweinefleischerzeugnissen mit Hochleistungsflüssigchromatographie und Fluoreszenzdetektion (HPLC-FLD)

Dieses Dokument beschreibt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung von Ochratoxin A (OTA) in Schweinefleischerzeugnissen, insbesondere Schinken, Schweinefleisch-basierten Erzeugnissen (geschnittenes Schweinefleisch in Dosen) und Schweineleber mit Hochleistungsflüssigchromatographie mit Fluoreszenzdetektion (HPLC-FLD, en: high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection).
Das Verfahren wurde für Ochratoxin A in natürlich kontaminiertem Schinken, Schweinefleisch-basierten Erzeugnissen (geschnittenem Schweinefleisch in Dosen) und Schweineleber im Bereich von 0,5 μg/kg bis 11 μg/kg validiert [4], [5], [6].
Laborerfahrungen haben gezeigt, dass dieses Verfahren auch auf Pastete und Nieren anwendbar ist [4].

Produits alimentaires - Dosage de l'ochratoxine A dans la viande de porc et les produits carnés issus du porc par chromatographie liquide à haute performance couplée à la détection par fluorescence (CLHP-DFL)

La présente Norme européenne décrit un mode opératoire de dosage de l’ochratoxine A (OTA) dans les produits issus du porc, notamment le jambon, les produits carnés à base de porc (porc haché en conserve) et le foie de porc, par chromatographie liquide à haute performance couplée à la détection par fluorescence (CLHP-DFL).
La méthode a été validée dans des échantillons naturellement contaminés en ochratoxine A de jambon, de produits carnés à base de porc (porc haché en conserve) et de foie de porc à des teneurs allant de 0,5 μg/kg à 11 μg/kg [4], [5], [6].
Les expériences en laboratoire ont démontré que cette méthode est également applicable aux pâtés et aux reins [4].

Introduction
Ochratoxins are a class of pentaketide molecules made up of dihydroisocoumarin linked to
β-phenylalanine. Ochratoxin A (OTA) is mainly produced by Aspergillus ochraceus, A. carbonarius and
A. niger in tropical regions and by Penicillium verrucosum in temperate climates. It is found in a variety of
food products, especially cereals and their derivatives which are major contributors to exposure, but it is
also found in coffee, wine, beer, dried fruits and spices. Ochratoxin A can also be detected in pork meat
and pork based products.
WARNING 1 — Suitable precaution and protection measures need to be taken when carrying out
working steps with harmful chemicals. The latest version of the hazardous substances ordinance (EU)
1907/2006 [3] should be taken into account as well as appropriate national statements.
WARNING 2 — The use of this document can involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment.
This document does not purport to address all the safety problems associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety and health practices and
determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
WARNING 3 — Ochratoxin A has been classified as substance of Group 2B by International Agency for
Research on Cancer (IARC) meaning the existence of sufficient evidence of its renal carcinogenicity to
animals and possibly to humans.

4 Principle
Ochratoxin A is extracted by mixing a test portion with a mixture of methanol and aqueous sodium
hydrogen carbonate solution. The extract is centrifuged, diluted with a mixture of phosphate buffered
saline (PBS) and a polysorbate 20 solution, and applied to an immunoaffinity column containing
antibodies specific to ochratoxin A.
The purified extract is analyzed by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC)
coupled with fluorescence detection (FLD).
