Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wheat aflatoxin trace detection, in particular to a wheat aflatoxin trace detection method. Background Art

[0002] Wheat is the third largest grain crop, and China is the world's largest wheat producer [1]. Grains such as wheat go through a long storage and transportation process from harvest to processing. During the storage and transportation process, grains are very likely to become moldy due to environmental factors. Among them, Aspergillus flavus is a common saprophytic fungus that is often found on moldy grains, grain products, and other moldy organic matter. Its toxin contamination is a key issue of concern in the food and agricultural products industry. Wheat and other grain crops are easily contaminated by Aspergillus flavus when stored under hot and humid conditions, producing aflatoxin.

[0003] However, the properties of mycotoxins are relatively stable and are generally not removed during subsequent processing, which poses a serious threat to human and animal health [2-4]. Aflatoxin secreted by Aspergillus flavus consists of 15-20 compounds, among which aflatoxin B1 (abbreviated as AFB1) is the most harmful and toxic. It is listed as the number one carcinogen in humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer and is one of the main factors inducing malignant tumors such as primary hepatocellular carcinoma [5]. In recent years, due to global warming, the extent and scope of aflatoxin damage to grains such as wheat have been on the rise [6].

[0004] Therefore, monitoring and preventing fungal toxin contamination in grain has become a top priority in grain work. Developing rapid, efficient, non-destructive, and trace on-site detection technology for grain fungal toxin contamination levels in order to achieve early detection and early prevention is of great significance to ensuring food security.

[0005] At present, in daily life, the identification of grain mold contamination mainly relies on human sense of smell, vision and other sensory means. In the laboratory, the common methods for detecting the aflatoxin contamination level of grain include thin layer chromatography (TLC), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS / MS), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), etc. [7-9]. Among the above methods, the identification results of artificial sensory means are usually delayed. If the grain is detected to be moldy by artificial sensory means, the grain has often suffered irreversible damage, thus losing the significance of grain mold detection, and it is too empirical; although the TLC and ELISA determination methods are simple to operate, they are prone to false positives and have poor quantitative effects, and are not suitable for final confirmation; although the LC-MS / MS and HPLC determination methods have high detection accuracy and low detection limit, they require expensive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometers and high performance liquid chromatography, the sample pretreatment process is cumbersome, the detection cost is high, the efficiency is low, and the requirements for test personnel are high, and the application of on-site detection is subject to certain restrictions. Therefore, conventional methods for detecting aflatoxin in grain cannot meet the needs of rapid and non-destructive modern food testing and are not suitable for application scenarios of on-site in-situ testing under grain storage conditions. Summary of the invention

[0006] Technical issues solved

[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for detecting trace amounts of aflatoxin in wheat, which is mainly used to solve the problem that monitoring and preventing fungal toxin contamination in grain has become a top priority in grain work, and to develop a rapid, efficient, non-destructive, trace on-site detection technology for grain fungal toxin contamination levels to achieve the purpose of early detection and early prevention, which is of great significance for ensuring food security, and the conventional detection methods for aflatoxin in grain cannot meet the needs of rapid and non-destructive modern food testing, and are not suitable for application scenarios of on-site in-situ detection under grain storage conditions.

[0008] Technical Solution

[0009] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0010] A method for detecting trace amounts of aflatoxin in wheat comprises the following steps:

[0011] S1: Conduct a storage experiment of wheat inoculated with aflatoxin-producing fungal strains: Wheat inoculated with different doses of aflatoxin-producing fungal strains were packed into different fresh-keeping bags and placed in different intelligent artificial climate incubators for temperature-controlled storage until visible mold spots appeared. The storage experiment was terminated; AFB1 physical and chemical tests were performed on the wheat samples according to the method specified in GB 5009.22, and the data were recorded;

[0013] S3: Controllable synthesis and color development mechanism of magnetic nano-color-sensitive materials: It is planned to try to achieve the controllable synthesis of nano-color-sensitive materials based on magnetic metal-organic frameworks (MMOFs) by evaporation solvent method, diffusion method, hydrothermal or solvothermal method, ultrasound and microwave method; use UV-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence and other methods to characterize the spectral changes of the molecular aggregation of magnetic nano-color-sensitive materials, so as to obtain magnetic nano-color-sensitive materials with strong adsorption, porosity, unique spatial configuration, large specific surface area and strong coordination ability; study the coordination reaction between wheat AFB1 indicator odor molecules and magnetic nano-color-sensitive materials under different aflatoxin contamination levels;

[0014] S4: Creation of magnetic nano colorimetric sensor and analysis of specific color development mechanism: The prepared different magnetic nano colorimetric materials were dissolved in DMAC, and the above solutions were respectively transferred with a spotting capillary, and adsorbed on the hydrophobic reaction substrate material polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film in sequence in the fume hood. After the solvent was completely evaporated, the magnetic nano colorimetric sensor array was obtained; the medium substrate and the magnetic nano colorimetric material were characterized before and after the combination using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and on this basis, the magnetic nano colorimetric material on the sensor array was reconstructed in a targeted manner to improve the color development specificity of the magnetic nano colorimetric material; the morphology, size, and surface properties of the magnetic nano colorimetric material were regulated and optimized by adjusting the emulsifier concentration, type, and emulsification method, and the binding force between the sensor medium substrate and the magnetic nano colorimetric material was enhanced; finally, the sensor response characteristics of wheat indicator odor molecules under different aflatoxin contamination levels were analyzed, the response mechanism of the sensor to the indicator odor molecules was explored, and the non-destructive detection mechanism of the magnetic nano colorimetric sensor for stored wheat AFB1 was clarified;

[0015] S5: Data collection and preprocessing of wheat volatile components by magnetic nano color sensors: The collected wheat samples were placed in a closed sensor chamber with a ring-shaped LED light source inside to ensure uniform illumination on the sensor array surface; the magnetic nano color sensor was placed on the top of the sensor chamber and left to stand for five minutes to obtain the odor information of the wheat volatile components and present it in the form of an image;

[0016] S6: Research on deep feature extraction of magnetic nano color sensor images: Based on the existing convolutional neural network (CNN) model structure, the new CNN structure is redesigned according to their effect of deep feature learning on preprocessed color sensor images. The multi-objective group intelligent optimization algorithm (MOPSO, MOACO, MOABC, etc.) is used to optimize the parameters such as width and depth of the new CNN, and the new CNN training is realized in a supervised learning manner; the optimal model is determined by combining model accuracy and inference real-time performance to realize deep extraction of magnetic nano color sensor image features; finally, the image features are abstracted layer by layer by sharing weight parameters, and the top-level output of the model is used as the extracted image deep features;

[0017] S7: Construction and optimization of wheat AFB1 nonlinear detection model: According to the deep features of the magnetic nano-color sensor image extracted by S6, a stacked extreme learning machine autoencoder network (SELM-AEN) is proposed to construct a nonlinear detection model for stored wheat AFB1; the established model is verified by the national standard test results, and the SELM-AEN nonlinear detection model is further optimized according to the verification feedback results, and finally a nonlinear detection model based on deep learning theory with high detection accuracy and strong fault tolerance is obtained.

[0018] As a further solution of the present invention, the storage temperature in S1 is controlled at 12°C, 20°C, 28°C, 36°C and 44°C respectively; and sampling is performed at intervals of 3-5 days.

[0019] Furthermore, S2 introduces a swarm intelligence optimization algorithm (PSO, ACO, ABC, etc.) to search for indicative odor molecules related to AFB1, establishes a general mathematical model between indicative odor molecules and AFB1 content, clarifies the change mechanism of indicative odor molecules under different aflatoxin contamination levels, and lays a theoretical foundation for on-site non-destructive and trace detection of wheat AFB1 by magnetic nano color sensitive sensors.

[0020] On the basis of the above scheme, S3 intends to use the spectral dynamics method to analyze the law of spectral redshift or blueshift in the coordination reaction between the two, and intends to use density functional theory (DFT) to reveal the change law of electron cloud density and spatial structure in the coordination reaction, so as to clarify the color display mechanism of magnetic nano-color-sensitive materials.

[0021] As a further solution of the present invention, S4 intends to use X-ray electron spectroscopy analysis (XPS) to study the interaction between molecules of magnetic nano-color-sensitive materials, and on this basis, to carry out targeted modification of the surface of the magnetic nano-color-sensitive materials to increase the contact area between the magnetic nano-color-sensitive materials and volatile substances, thereby improving the sensitivity and stability of the magnetic nano-color-sensitive sensors.

[0022] Furthermore, in S5, a high-performance CCD camera is used to obtain the sensor array image data before and after the reaction. The image processing software is used to perform filtering, threshold segmentation and other pre-processing on the images of the sensor array before and after the reaction. Then, a circle with the center of each color-sensitive point on the sensor as the origin and a radius of 15 pixels is constructed as a template, the grayscale value of each template is calculated, and the grayscale values ​​before and after the reaction are subtracted to obtain the difference image before and after the reaction. After normalization, the GRB color image of each sample can be obtained for subsequent analysis.

[0023] On the basis of the above scheme, in the process of constructing the nonlinear detection model of S7, the model structure of SELM-AEN is first designed, and then multi-objective group intelligent optimization algorithms such as MOPSO, MOACO, and MOABC are introduced to optimize the network depth and the number of neurons in each hidden layer of SELM-AEN to determine the optimal network structure and parameters, and establish a high-precision SELM-AEN nonlinear detection model to realize trace detection of wheat AFB1.
