Deoxynivalenol (DON) poses a significant threat to human health due to its widespread distribution and biological toxicity. Here, we identified a novel DON-degrading enzyme from Youhaiella tibetensis (YoDDH). YoDDH exhibited the highest activity against DON at pH 4.5 and 40°C, in the presence of Ca...

Amoxicillin is a beta-lactam group of antibiotics used against bacterial infections. The growth of the antibiotic market and abuse of amoxicillin led to its accumulation in nature, especially in foods. Thus, rapid amoxicillin tests are needed to protect human health and increase food safety. In...

The development of different matrix adsorbents is a research focus in the multiresidue analysis of veterinary drugs in foods. In this study, a novel elastic matrix adsorbent based on a reduced graphene oxide-coated melamine sponge was prepared and applied in matrix purification for the simultaneous ...

Vitamin K refers to a group of vitamins that play an important role in blood coagulation and regulation of bone and vascular metabolism. However, vitamin K₃ may give severe side effects in animal and humans when improperly added to food and feed due to its toxicity. Here, an electrochemical...

Milk has a high nutritional value. However, milk is easily contaminated in the production, processing, and storage processes, which harms consumers' health. Therefore, the harmful substances' detection in milk is important. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have proven high potential in food safety...

Aflatoxin M₁ (AFM₁) is a highly carcinogenic and toxic compound that is commonly found in dairy foods such as milk. We developed an electrochemical MIP (molecularly imprinted polymer) and aptamer (Apt) based aptasensor (Apt-Au@PEIM/AFM₁/MIP-Apt/(AuNPs)/GCE) with dual-recognition signal...

To get rid of the singularity of the detection of veterinary drug residues in liquid milk, a high-throughput determination was developed for 126 VDRs in 17 categories in liquid milk based on the one-step extraction coupled with LC-HRMS (UPLC-Q-Exactive-Orbitrap-MS). The results showed that adding...

In the present study, a highly efficient analytical method based on preconcentration of tetracyclines (TCs) in water and milk samples using a magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (Fe₃O₄/SiO₂/MIP) synthesized by means of a novel semi-covalent synthesis for TCs and determination by HPLC-DAD was...

Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for aquaculture animals, which plays an important role in maintaining normal growth, enhancing immune and antioxidant functions. However, the range of suitable Se inclusion in the diet is very narrow and excess Se will result in a variety of toxic effects ...

On the fish Labeo rohita, the impact of a sublethal dose of cadmium (0.01 μg/lt) was tested on blood glucose, liver glycogen, and muscle glycogen. The first day of exposure resulted in an increase in the blood glucose level, which then steadily dropped between the seventh and fifteenth day. Their...
