Rapid Purification of Fumonisins and Their Hydrolysis Products with Solid-Phase Extraction Columns
Fumonisins B3 and B4 (FB3 and FB4) were recovered from the 50:50 acetonitrile/water extract of corn cultures of a strain of Fusarium moniliforme that does not make FB1 or FB2 by stirring the extract with IRA-68, a weak anion-exchange resin. The fumonisins were desorbed with 5% acetic acid in the sam...

Summary: | Fumonisins B3 and B4 (FB3 and FB4) were recovered from the 50:50 acetonitrile/water extract of corn cultures of a strain of Fusarium moniliforme that does not make FB1 or FB2 by stirring the extract with IRA-68, a weak anion-exchange resin. The fumonisins were desorbed with 5% acetic acid in the same solvent. After dilution with water, the desorbed fumonisins were separated into FB3 (FB3 and FA3) and FB4 (FB4, FC4, and FA4) fractions with a tC18 solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridge. The FB3 fraction was then separated into FB3 and FA3 by using an NH2 SPE cartridge and eluting with 5% acetic acid and increasing amounts of acetonitrile in water. Finally, FB1 and FA3 were hydrolyzed with calcium hydroxide. After recovery from the reaction mixture using a tC18 cartridge, the hydrolyzed and partially hydrolyzed analogues were separated and the unreacted fumonisins recovered by using an NH2 cartridge, initially in the normal-phase mode with increasing amounts of water in acetonitrile and then in the reversed-phase mode after the addition of 5% acetic acid to the solvent and eluting in the reverse order.
