OBJECTIVETo establish a method for determination of 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38) in microdialysates from rat brain.

METHODSThe concentrations of SN-38 were measured by LC-MS/MS method with Agilent Eclipse Plus C18 (2.1 mm ×100 mm, 1.8 μm) reversed phase column using acetonitrile-0.1% methanoic acid as mobile phase with gradient elution at a flow rate of 0.3 ml/min and temperature at 35 degree. Multiple reaction monitoring using the precursor to product ion combinations of m/z 393.1→349.1 was performed to detect SN-38 in microdialysates from rat brain.

RESULTSBlank microdialysate had non-interference. The method was linear over the concentration range of 0.1015-1015 ng/ml (r=0.9995); and the lower limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.1015 ng/ml. The recovery of assay for SN-38 ranged from 97.54%-100.60%. The intra- and inter-day precision and stability were both well. The concentrations of SN-38 in brain microdialysates presented pharmacokinetics process and achieved the peak after 220 min.

CONCLUSIONThe fully validated LC-MS/MS analytical method has high specificity and sensibility, which can be used effectively to analyze SN-38 in microdialysates from rat brain.

Objective This report aims to assess the exposure risk of aflatoxin B1 in edible vegetable oil in Guangxi.Methods By using margin of exposure (MOE),the report analyzes the dietary exposure of aflatoxin B1 in edible vegetable oil with the data from contamination survey and dietary intake survey.Results For the vegetable oil sample,the content of aflatoxin B1 was between 0.50-320.00 μg/kg.The detection rate of peanut oil was 78.08％ (114/146) which was higher than other vegetable oil,and the exceeding rate was 31.51％ (46/146).For peanut oil,the average content was 30.80 μg/kg,the dietary exposure of the population was 17.30 ng/kg BW,and the MOE was 18.For the prepackaged peanut oil samples,the average content of aflatoxin B1 was 6.33 μg/kg,which was below the limit.While for the bulk peanut oil,the average content of AFB1 was 41.50 μg/kg,which was more than 1.08 times of the limit,and the dietary exposure was 25.59 ng/kg BW.The MOE of bulk peanut oil was 12,1/8 of the prepackaged peanut oil.Conclusion Food safety regulators should pay more attention to bulk peanut oil products,the priority in the risk management measures.At the same time,related department should also promote healthy education for the residents.
