EN 14132:2009 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of ochratoxin A content in barley and roasted coffee using immunoaffinity column clean up and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). This method has been validated for ochratoxin A contents in barley in the range from 0,1 µg/kg up to 4,5 µg/kg and for roasted coffee in the range from 0,2 µg/kg up to 5,5 µg/kg. 2 Normative reference The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory use - Specification and test methods (ISO 3696:1987) 3 Principle Ochratoxin A is extracted from barley by blending with aqueous acetonitrile. The extract is purified by passing it through an immunoaffinity column. Ochratoxin A is extracted from ground roasted coffee by blending with methanol and sodium hydrogen carbonate. The extract is cleaned up by passing it first through a phenyl silane column and then through an immunoaffinity column. Ochratoxin A is separated by reverse-phase HPLC and determined by fluorescence. 4 Reagents 4.1 General During the analysis, unless otherwise stated, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only distilled water or water of grade 1 as defined in EN ISO 3696. Solvents shall be of quality for HPLC analysis. Commercially available reagents with equivalent properties to the ones listed may be used.
4.2 Sodium chloride 4.3 Disodium hydrogen phosphate 4.4 Potassium dihydrogen phosphate 4.5 Potassium chloride 4.6 Sodium hydroxide solution, ρ(NaOH) = 8,0 g/l Dissolve 8 g of sodium hydroxide in 900 ml of water, then dilute to 1 l with water. 4.7 Phosphate buffered saline (PBS) Dissolve 8 g of sodium chloride (4.2), 1,2 g of disodium hydrogen phosphate (4.3), 0,2 g of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (4.4) and 0,2 g of potassium chloride (4.5) in 900 ml of water. Adjust the pH to 7,4 with sodium hydroxide solution (4.6) then dilute to 1 l with water. Commercially available phosphate buffered saline tablets with equivalent properties may be used.

4.19 Phenyl silane column wash reagent 2, ρ(NaHCO3) = 1 g/100 ml In a 100 ml volumetric flask dissolve 1 g of sodium hydrogen carbonate in 90 ml water. Dilute to volume with water.
4.20 Phenyl silane column elution reagent Mix 7 parts per volume methanol (4.10) with 93 parts per volume of water. 4.21 Ochratoxin A stock solution Dissolve 1 mg of the ochratoxin A (in crystal form) or the contents of 1 ampoule (if ochratoxin A has been obtained as a film) in solvent mixture (4.13) to give a solution containing approximately 20 µg/ml to 30 µg/ml of ochratoxin A. To determine the exact concentration, record the absorption curve between a wavelength of 300 nm and 370 nm in 5 nm steps in 1 cm quartz cells (5.14) and solvent mixture (4.13) as reference. Identify the wavelength for maximum absorption and calculate the mass concentration of ochratoxin A, ρota, in micrograms per millilitre, using Equation (1): bMAota×××=ερ100max (1) SIST EN 14132:2009
EN 14132:2009 (E) 6 where
Amax is the absorption determined at the maximum of the absorption curve (here: at 333 nm);
M is the molar mass of ochratoxin A (M = 403,8 g/mol);
0 is the molar absorption coefficient of ochratoxin A in the solvent mixture (4.13), (here: 544 m2/mol);
b is the optical path length of the quartz cell in centimetres. This solution is stable at –18°C for at least 4 years. 4.22 Ochratoxin A standard solution
Dilute the stock solution (4.21) with the solvent mixture (4.13) to obtain a standard solution with a mass concentration of ochratoxin A of 10 µg/ml. Store this solution in a refrigerator at approximately 4°C and check its stability. 4.23 Ochratoxin A calibration solution Pipette 200 µl of the 10 µg/ml ochratoxin A standard solution (4.22) into a glass vial and dilute to 1 ml with 800 µl of solvent mixture (4.13). This gives 2 µg/ml ochratoxin A solution. Pipette 100 µl of the 2 µg/ml ochratoxin A solution into a glass vial (5.2). Evaporate the solvent under a stream of nitrogen. Redissolve in 10 ml injection solvent (4.16) which has been filtered through a 0,2 µm filter (5.12). This gives a calibration solution containing 20 ng/ml. Prepare the calibration solutions at the beginning of every day of the analysis.
4.24 Spiking solution Pipette 100 µl of the 10 µg/ml ochratoxin A standard solution (4.22) into a glass vial. Dilute to 2 ml with 1,9 ml of the mixture of toluene and acetic acid (4.13). This gives a mass concentration of 500 ng/ml ochratoxin A. 4.25 Immunoaffinity column The immunoaffinity column contains antibodies raised against ochratoxin A. The column shall have a total capacity of not less than 100 ng of ochratoxin A. The performance of the column should be checked by applying a solution of 100 ng ochratoxin A in a solvent mixture of the same composition as the sample extract (6.1.3) to be applied. This shall give a recovery of not less than 85 %. 4.26 Phenyl silane solid phase extraction columns
500 mg sorbent weight and 3 ml reservoir volume (to ensure adequate column bed depth and prevent analyte breakthrough). The column should have a total capacity of not less than 100 ng ochratoxin A and should give a recovery of not less than 85 % when applied in a standard solution of ochratoxin A in the roasted coffee extraction solvent (4.15) containing 100 ng of ochratoxin A. 5 Apparatus Usual laboratory equipment and, in particular, the following: 5.1 Analytical balance, accurate to 0,01 mg 5.2 Glass vials, of at least 10 ml Certain types of vials might lead to losses of ochratoxin A during evaporation. To avoid this, silanization could be applied. Prepare vials by filling them with silanizing reagent and leave this reagent in the vial for 1 min. Rinse the vial twice with appropriate solvent (toluene, acetone or hexane) followed by water (twice) and dry the vial. SIST EN 14132:2009
