A method for qualitative and quantitative analysis of Fusarium mycotoxins by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) using cold on-column injection was improved. Eight typical mycotoxins, including deoxynivalenol (DON), 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol (3ADN), fusarenon-X (FX), diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS), 15-monoacetylscirpenol (15MAS), T-2 toxin (T-2), scirpentriol (SCT), and zearalenone (ZEA) were subjected to GC-MS without chemical derivatization by means of the on-column injection technique. Chromatographic separation of the toxins extracted from barley was achieved as a single peak, and the specific EI mass spectra of each toxin were obtained. The fatty acids in the extract that interfere with measurements of the toxins on the gas chromatogram were removed by precipitation as an insoluble metal soap with zinc acetate. Additional clean-up was accomplished using a Bond Elut Florisil cartridge. The quantitative detection limit in barley ranged from 0.1 to 0.5 micrograms/g. The average recoveries of 93.1% for DON, 3ADN, 15MAS, DAS, T-2 and ZEA, and 46.0% for FX and SCT added to barley at the level of 1 microgram/g were obtained.
