ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Ethyl carbamate (EC) is a potentially toxic carcinogen produced during fermentation and storage of fermented foods, and many countries have set thresholds for its content in food. Therefore, sensitive, rapid and accurate detection of EC is meaningful to ensure the quality of fermented food.RESULTS:
This study introduces a CdTe quantum dots/nano-5,10,15,20-tetrakis (4-methoxyphenyl)-porphyrin (nano TPP-OCH3 ) fluorescence sensor system detection of EC. The specificity of this sensing mainly relies on a photo-induced electron transfer and electrostatic force interaction between EC and nano TPP-OCH3 . This sensor presented a linear range of 10 to 1000 µg L-1 (R2 = 0.9903) with a low detection limit of 7.14 µg L-1 . Meanwhile, the recovery (91.19-101.09%) and precision [relative standard deviation (RSD) = 0.64-3.05%] of the sensor for the analysis of fermented food (yellow rice wine, soy sauce, Chinese spirits, Pu-erh tea) samples were good and could meet the requirements of practical detection. Moreover, the detection results of fermented food (yellow rice wine, soy sauce, Chinese spirits, Pu-erh tea) samples by this sensor are basically consistent with those of high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detector (HPLC-FLD).CONCLUSION:
This method was expected to provide a potential platform for sensitive and accurate detection of EC in food safety monitoring, which would provide knowledge of the flavor and quality related to fermented food. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.Palavras-chave
