How to quickly separate and detect cadmium (Cd2+) and lead (Pb2+) from solid samples is a difficult problem that needs to be solved. For this, Fe3O4@agarose@iminodiacetic acid (IDA) was synthesized and used for rapid purification of Cd2+ and Pb2+. This material can remove complex matrix interference completely within a short time of 15 min. The mechanism of the adsorption kinetics fit well to a pseudo-second-order model. A portable screen-printed electrodes (SPEs)-based electrochemical detection platform was established. After coupling with the pretreatment, the whole detection process only took within 30 min. The limits of detection (LOD) were ten times lower than those of the Codex general standard, with values of 0.02 and 0.01 mg/kg for Pb2+ and Cd2+, respectively. The recoveries ranged from 84.1% to 109.7% in naturally contaminated grain, in good agreement with the ICP-MS, demonstrating great prospects for the rapid screening and monitoring of Cd2+ and Pb2+ in grain.

A rapid, accurate, and ecofriendly pretreatment plays an extremely important role prior to ICP-MS for heavy metal analysis. In order to improve the pretreatment efficiency, a high-throughput and automatic magnetic solid-phase extraction of five heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Mn, Cu, and Zn) was carried out by a magnet-controlled pretreatment system with an ecofriendly diluted acid as an extracting agent and carboxyl-functionalized magnetic beads as a pretreatment material. Key conditions, including the pH, adsorption time, and eluent solution, were optimized. The time for purification and enrichment was only 8 min. The adsorption capacities of the carboxyl-functionalized magnetic beads were in the range of 152~426 mg g−1. The preconcentration factor of Cu was 40, and others were 200. In the optimal conditions, the limits of detection for Mn, Zn, Cd, Cu, and Pb by ICP-MS were 3.84, 2.71, 0.16, 11.54, and 6.01 ng L−1, respectively. The percentage recoveries were in the range of 80~110%, and the relative standard deviations were less than 3%. The developed method was in good agreement with traditional standard microwave digestion. Additionally, the designed system could simultaneously process up to 24 samples within 22 min, reducing the time to less than 1 min/sample. Thus, the proposed auto-MSPE-ICP-MS method was successfully applied to analyze five heavy metals in cereals and feeds with a simple operation and high precision, safety, and reliability.

A simple, rapid, sensitive, accurate, and automatic graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) method for detecting Cd and Pb in cereals is presented. This method enables the simultaneous determination of Cd and Pb in cereals with a pre-treatment method of diluted acid extraction and a high-performance lead–cadmium composite hollow-cathode lamp (LCC-HCL), and it realizes automatic determination from sample weighing to result output through an automatic diluted acid extraction system. Under the optimization, Pb and Cd in cereals were simultaneously and automatically detected in up to 240 measurements in 8 h. The LOD and LOQ of this method were 0.012 and 0.040 mg·kg−1 for Pb, and 0.0014 and 0.0047 mg·kg−1 for Cd, respectively. The results of the four certified reference materials were satisfied; there was no significant difference compared with the ICP-MS method according to a t-test, and the RSDs were less than 5% for Cd and Pb. The recoveries of naturally contaminated samples compared with the ICP-MS method were favorable, with 80–110% in eight laboratories. The developed method is rapid, low-cost, and highly automated and may be a good choice for grain quality discrimination and rapid analysis of Cd and Pb in different institutions.

A chromatography-free detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in cereals and oils through atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) has been developed using quantum dots and immunomagnetic beads. A magneto-controlled pretreatment platform for automatic purification, labeling, and digestion was constructed, and AFB1 detection through AAS was enabled. Under optimal conditions, this immunoassay exhibited high sensitivity for AFB1 detection, with limits of detection as low as 0.04 μg/kg and a linear dynamic range of 2.5–240 μg/kg. The recoveries for four different food matrices ranged from 92.6% to 108.7%, with intra- and inter-day standard deviations of 0.7–6.3% and 0.6–6.9%, respectively. The method was successfully applied to the detection of AFB1 in husked rice, maize, and polished rice samples, and the detection results were not significantly different from those of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The proposed method realized the detection of mycotoxins through AAS for the first time. It provides a new route for AFB1 detection, expands the application scope of AAS, and provides a reference for the simultaneous determination of multiple poisonous compounds (such as mycotoxins and heavy metals).

An integrated aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) detection platform with quantum dot (QD)-based electrochemical immunosensor and an automated magneto-controlled pretreatment system was successfully developed. The automated pretreatment system adopts the immunoaffinity magnetic beads (IMB) as the capture probe of AFB1 and QD-labeled AFB1 complete antigen (AFB1-BSA-QDs) as the signal probe. AFB1-BSA-QDs can be easily converted into corresponding metallic cations through acidic treatment, which can be detected electrochemically via anode stripping voltammetry (ASV). Moreover, a disposable screen-printed electrode (SPE) without requiring any further modification is used in the novel electrochemical immunosensor‚ making routine testing feasible. Under optimal conditions, the detectable concentration range of AFB1 was 0.08–800 μg/kg. The metal ion signal associated linearly with the logarithm of AFB1 concentration within the range of 5–240 μg/kg, with a detection limit of 0.05 μg/kg. The spiked recoveries of three different concentrations in four different matrixes ranged from 83.9 to 118.0%, and inter-day relative standard deviations were below 10%. Furthermore, the methodology was validated by analyzing naturally contaminated samples, and results of the novel immunosensor were in good agreement with those of LC-MS/MS, demonstrating the potentiality of the developed method for the monitor of AFB1 in cereals and oils.

Consequently, they streamline the processes of purifying, competitively binding, and releasing signals for mycotoxin detection (Xuan et al., 2020;Ye et al., 2022;Zhang, Liu et al., 2022).
