We developed and tested a prototype of an antibody microarray immunoassay for simultaneous quantitative detection of four typical mycotoxins (aflatoxin B1, ochratoxin A, zearalenone, and fumonisin B1) in corn samples. The test kit consisted of a nitrocellulose membrane layered with immobilized monoclonal antibodies against mycotoxins. During the assay, the mycotoxin-protein conjugates were biotinylated. The signal detection was enhanced by a combination of the biotin-streptavidin system and enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL). This improved the sensitivity of the assay. Under the optimized conditions, four calibration curves with goodness of fit (R2 > 0.98) were plotted. The results showed that the detection limits for aflatoxin B1, ochratoxin A, zearalenone, and fumonisin B1 were 0.21, 0.19, 0.09, and 0.24 ng/mL, with detection ranges of 0.47–55.69, 0.48–127.11, 0.22–31.36, and 0.56–92.57 ng/mL, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) of this antibody microarray for aflatoxin B1, ochratoxin A, zearalenone, and fumonisin B1 in corn was 5.25, 4.75, 2.25, and 6 μg/kg, respectively. The recovery rates from the spiked samples were between 79.2% and 113.4%, with coefficient of variation <10%. The results of the analysis of commercial samples for mycotoxins using this new assay and the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) were comparable and in good agreement. This assay could also be modified for the simultaneous detection of other multiple mycotoxins, as well as low-weight analytes, hazardous to human health.

Oxygen plasma micro-nanostructured poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) slides were modified through silver microparticle deposition to create microarray substrates that enhance the emitted fluorescence intensity. Silver deposition relied on a commercially available reagent and was completed in two 30-min incubation cycles of the substrate with the reagent. The fluorescence enhancement achieved using these substrates over flat PMMA slides was determined through the development of a microarray for the multiplexed detection of four mycotoxins, aflatoxin B1, ochratoxin A, fumonisin B1, and deoxynivalenol. It was shown that the implementation of silver-plated oxygen plasma micro-nanotextured PMMA substrates increased the signals obtained for aflatoxin B1 and ochratoxin A by approximately 2.8 times, 5.6 times for deoxynivalenol, and 16-times for fumonisin B1, compared to flat PMMA substrates. Most notably, this signal increase was not accompanied by a significant increase in the non-specific signal. In addition, the spot repeatability both across a single slide as well as between different slides was high, with coefficients of variation lower than 12%. The slides were also stable for at least three months, thus offering a microarray substrate with improved properties compared to standard glass slides, regarding both the absolute spot fluorescence intensity and between spots repeatability.
