Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of functional materials technology, and more specifically, to a method for enriching succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors and their applications. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, frequent food safety incidents have drawn increasing attention to food safety and human health, making the detection of various harmful residues a major concern and highlighting the importance of researching rapid detection technologies. Currently, two bottlenecks hindering the development of rapid food safety detection technologies are low sample pretreatment efficiency and insufficient refinement of rapid detection techniques. Achieving food safety requires a variety of accurate, convenient, rapid, and sensitive rapid detection technologies capable of detecting different contaminants. For samples with complex matrices, the key challenge in rapid detection of food contaminants is sample pretreatment. This involves not only extracting the analyte as completely as possible but also removing other coexisting impurities to avoid interference with detection. Therefore, developing simple, effective, time-saving, and labor-saving pretreatment methods is crucial. Thus, improving rapid detection technologies while simultaneously establishing efficient sample pretreatment methods is urgently needed.

[0003] Currently, the most commonly used pretreatment methods include liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), solid-phase extraction (SPE), solid-phase microextraction (SPME), supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), matrix solid-phase extraction, and QuEChERS technology. However, all of these methods have some drawbacks. SPE involves many steps, is time-consuming and labor-intensive, SPME extraction of coated fibers is expensive and has a short service life, while MSPD, although simple to operate, has fewer steps, and saves labor and time, is not easy to automate. SFE requires large-scale instruments and equipment and has high testing costs. At the same time, adsorbent materials also have the following problems: the adsorption of impurities is limited, some adsorbents are expensive, and most adsorbents cannot be recycled.

[0004] Magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) is a solid-phase extraction technique that uses magnetic materials as adsorbents. It achieves efficient separation of the adsorbent from the sample matrix through an external magnetic field. Compared to traditional solid-phase extraction (SPE), MSPE offers advantages such as simple and rapid pretreatment steps, low organic solvent consumption, high target analyte recovery, and minimal sample loss. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a method to elute and recover succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors from complex matrices such as environmental water or food. Summary of the Invention

[0031] The following provides a detailed description of specific embodiments of this disclosure. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative and explanatory purposes only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.

[0047] Optionally, the food includes at least one of grapes, cucumbers, and honey.

[0048] The present disclosure is further described in detail below through examples. All raw materials used in the examples are commercially available.

[0049] Example 1

[0050] Preparation of tetraethylenepentaaminomagnetic graphene oxide (TMGO) material.

[0051] TMGO was synthesized via a coprecipitation method: First, 0.2 g of TGO (purchased from Xianfeng Nanotechnology Co., Ltd.) was dispersed in 200 mL of ultrapure water and sonicated for 30 min. FeCl2·4H2O (0.4 g, 0.002 mol) and FeCl3·6H2O (1.08 g, 0.0004 mol) were dissolved in 40 mL of ultrapure water at a molar ratio of 1:2. The ultrapure water containing TGO was mixed with the ultrapure water containing FeCl2·4H2O (0.4 g, 0.002 mol) and FeCl3·6H2O to obtain a mixed solution. This mixed solution was transferred to a three-necked round-bottom flask and heated in a 70°C water bath for 0.75 h to obtain a second mixed solution. Add 20 mL of ammonia (25 wt%) to the second mixture, stir vigorously for 45 min under nitrogen atmosphere, collect TMGO using an external magnetic field, wash with acetonitrile and ultrapure water in sequence, and finally dry the magnetic nanomaterial at 60 °C for 5 h.

[0052] Example 2

[0053] In this embodiment, the material prepared in Example 1 was characterized by SEM and TEM to determine the morphology, surface distribution and particle size of TGMO.

[0054] Figure 1The study showed that magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were randomly modified in a spherical shape on the TGO surface. This indicates that Fe3O4 nanoparticles were successfully attached to TGO.

[0055] Figure 2 The black dots show Fe3O4 and the transparent area are several layers of TGO film. Fe3O4 consists of 10-15 nm nanoscale spherical particles. TEM images show that MNPs are aggregated due to magnetic dipole interactions.

[0056] Figure 3 The magnetic properties of TMGO nanoparticles in a magnetic field range of -10000 to 10000 Oe were investigated using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). TMGO exhibited near-zero hysteresis coercivity and a maximum saturation magnetization (Ms) of 63.73 emu / g, indicating that TMGO can be rapidly separated from solution. Furthermore, dispersed TMGO nanoparticles could be rapidly collected (within 30 seconds) in solution under an applied magnetic field, demonstrating that TMGO possesses sufficiently high magnetic saturation for MSPE.

[0057] Figure 4 The XRD patterns of the prepared TGO and TMGO are shown. Furthermore, the XRD pattern of TMGO showed six new peaks, (220), (311), (400), (422), (440), and (511), which can be attributed to Fe3O4. These results indicate that TMGO was successfully formed by depositing Fe3O4 on the TGO surface and possesses a good crystal structure.

[0058] In this embodiment, the specific surface area, pore volume, and pore size of TMGO were determined using nitrogen adsorption-desorption, and calculated using the Barrette-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) method and the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method. Figure 5 As can be seen, a hysteresis loop exists under high pressure, which is a typical type IV isotherm, reflecting a special phenomenon of a mesoporous or microporous structure. The results show that the BET specific surface area of ​​TMGO is 113.93 m². 2 / g, pore volume is 0.25cm³ 3 With a pore size of 8.6 nm, the TMGO prepared in this embodiment has a large specific surface area and pore volume, which is beneficial for actual pre-enrichment and improves the efficiency of succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor absorption from complex matrices.

[0059] This embodiment also performed thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) on the material prepared in Example 1. Figure 6The study shows the mass loss of TMGO nanocomposites in three key stages from 20 to 600 °C. In the first stage (<130 °C), there is a slight reduction in mass, which may be attributed to dehydration and residual fluctuations. Overall, these materials exhibit good thermal stability at room temperature. In the second stage, mass gradually decreases as the temperature increases in the range of 130-450 °C, possibly due to the decomposition of oxygen-containing functional groups such as carboxyl and hydroxyl groups. In the third stage (>450 °C), the prepared material experiences weight loss, possibly due to the vaporization and decomposition of the carbon skeleton.

[0061] The succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor used in this disclosure was purchased from Tianjin Alta. Other reagents whose purchase source is not specified can all be obtained through purchase.

[0062] Succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors include: methomyl, carboxin, oxycarboxin, sulfadiazine, fluopyram, cymoxanil, fluopyram, cymoxanil, fluopyram, pyrimethanil, pyrimethanil, pyrimethanil, pyrimethanil, fluopyram, fluopyram, benzovindiflupyr, bifenthiophanate-methyl, thifluzamide, and fluopyram hydroxylamine (standard products, all purchased from Tianjin Alta).

This mixed standard solution was then serially diluted with acetonitrile to 800, 500, 200, 50, 10, and 5 μg / L. Matrix mixed standard working solution: Matrix mixed standard working solutions of the above concentrations were prepared using blank sample extracts for the preparation of standard working curves. All standard solutions were stored at -20℃ and prepared fresh for each use.

[0064] Pretreatment of food samples: Water, grapes, cucumbers, grape juice, honey, and mixed fruit and vegetable juice were selected as target samples for testing; grape juice and mixed fruit and vegetable juice were obtained from supermarkets; grape and cucumber samples were homogenized using a high-speed blender, and 5 grams of sample were accurately weighed and placed in a 50 mL centrifuge tube. 5 mL of acetonitrile was added, and the mixture was vortexed for 3 minutes. After centrifugation at 4000 rpm for 5 minutes, the supernatant (5 mL) was collected, dried under nitrogen, and then dissolved in 5 mL of water; 10 grams of honey were dissolved in 100 mL of water, and the water sample was obtained from supermarket purified water; before MSPE extraction, the above test samples were stored in the dark at 4℃; before MSPE extraction, the mixed standard working solution was added to the water, grape, cucumber, grape juice, honey, and mixed vegetable juice samples at three concentrations (5.0, 20.0, and 100.0 μg / L) for laboratory spiking tests.

[0065] Magnetic solid-phase extraction enrichment and concentration process: 15 mg of TMGO adsorbent was added to 3 mL of the sample to be tested in a 10 mL glass bottle, and vortexed for 7 min to obtain the first mixed solution; the adsorbent containing succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor in the first mixed solution was magnetically enriched using a magnet, the supernatant was discarded during the extraction stage, and 3 mL of a mixed solution of acetonitrile and methanol (with a weight ratio of 4:6) was added to the glass bottle for elution to desorb, and vortexed for 7 min to achieve efficient enrichment of succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor bactericides. The adsorbent was collected, filtered using a 0.22 μm filter, and then 2 μL of the extract was injected into an UPLC-MS / MS system (instrument model: Waters Xevo TQ-S ultra-high performance liquid chromatography triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer) for detection. The linear range obtained was 5-800 μg / L, and the limit of detection was 0.0050-0.0927 μg / L. The recoveries of 19 succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors were 71.2-119.4%, as shown in Table 1.

[0066] The entire experimental process disclosed herein uses only 3 mL of organic solvent, significantly reducing the amount of organic reagents used compared to the traditional SPE method, thus meeting the requirements of green chemistry. Furthermore, the method provided in this disclosure optimizes experimental conditions, eliminating the need for additional equipment such as centrifuges and vortex mixers during pretreatment, making the experimental process simple and easy to operate. The magnetic material used for enriching succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors is recyclable and reusable, exhibiting good adsorption performance and a long service life; it achieves highly efficient enrichment of succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors with a weak matrix effect.
