Development and comparison of single-step solid phase extraction and QuEChERS clean-up for the analysis of 7 mycotoxins in fruits and vegetables during storage by UHPLC-MS/MS

A robust and sensitive UHPLC-MS/MS method was developed for the analysis of seven mycotoxins in fruits and vegetables. The variations of seven mycotoxins concentrations during storage were also determined for the first time. Solid phase extraction (SPE) and QuEChERS clean-up were compared, and extraction was finally performed with acetonitrile under acidic conditions followed by HLB SPE purification. Seven mycotoxins were separated on a C18...
