One-pot green synthesis of ZIF-8/IgG composite for the precise orientation and protection of antibody and its application in purification and detection of aflatoxins in peanut oil.

This study presents a novel approach toward the one-pot green synthesis of ZIF-8/IgG composite, focusing on its precise orientation and protection of the anti-aflatoxins antibody. The antibody orientation is achieved through the specific binding of IgG to the Fc region of the antibody, while the antibody protection is accomplished by the structural change restriction of ZIF-8 framework to the antibody. Consequently, the antibody exhibits enhanced target capability and significantly improved tolerance to organic solvents. The ZIF-8/IgG/anti-AFT was employed for the purification and detection of AFTs by coupling with UPLC. Under optimized conditions, the recoveries of spiked AFTs in peanut oils are between 86.1% and 106.4%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) ranging from 0.8% to 8.8%. The linearity range is 0.5-20.0 ng for AFB1 and AFG1, 0.125-5.0 ng for AFB2 and AFG2, the limit of detection is 0.1 ng for AFB1 and AFG1, 0.03 ng for AFB2 and AFG2.
