AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are difficult to prepare high-purity TeA from Alternaria alternifolia in an efficient and economical manner. Furthermore, the preparation methods are cumbersome, time-consuming, and costly, which cannot meet the needs of TeA detection and toxicological studies in food and feed.
Alternaria alternata was cultured in an optimized potato-glucose-agar/water medium. Combined with acetonitrile extraction, n-butanol extraction, macroporous resin decolorization, and three-stage chromatographic purification (reversed-phase preparation-gel size exclusion-normal-phase preparation) techniques, TeA was efficiently separated and purified.
It achieves high-yield (1003.1 mg/kg) and high-purity (>99%) preparation of TeA, simplifies the operation process, reduces production costs, and is suitable for the detection and toxicological studies of TeA.
