To ensure reasonable intake of selenium for humans and provide insights on the development and nutritional analysis of high-quality selenium-enriched food, we established a reliable and highly sensitive method for the determination of selenium species in Z0206 selenium-enriched polysaccharide (Se-EPS). By optimizing the pre-treatment conditions (different enzymes, enzyme combinations, enzymatic time, concentration of enzymes, and centrifugation time), we found that Se-EPS can be effectively hydrolyzed by proteinase K for 18 h, followed by HPLC-ICP-MS determination. The developed method presented high sensitivity with the limit of detection and quantitation in the range of 0.44–2.35 μg L −1 and 1.54–7.21 μg L −1 . The relative standard deviation (RSD) was all less than 10% and recovery was greater than 80% except for SeCys2, which further validated the repeatability and accuracy of the proposed method. Under the optimized conditions, we could determine 4 selenium species: elemental selenium (78.37%), seleno-methionine (14.27%), selenocystine (0.03%), and Se-methylselenocysteine (5.22%) in Se-EPS. This work provides new insights into the determination of different selenium species in selenium-enriched food.

Abstract The content of metallothionein (MT) in fish can serve as a biomarker for heavy metal contamination in an aquatic environment. In this paper, an improved sample separation and quantification method using cadmium saturation combined with anion exchange high performance liquid chromatography–inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC–ICP-MS) was developed to measure the two major isoforms of MT (MT-I and MT-II) in fish. Replacing sulfur with cadmium as the quantitative element by cadmium saturation reduced the instrumental requirement and analysis cost. In the chromatographic separation, NH 3 –NH 4 Cl buffer was applied as the mobile phase instead of Tris–HCl buffer to prevent carbon deposition on the ICP cone. The chloride concentration was found to be a key factor to the separation of MT-I and MT-II, and the optimum chromatographic condition was 27 mM of NH 3 –NH 4 Cl in isocratic mode, with a pH of 8.6 and a flow rate of 0.8 mL min −1 . The limits of detection were 0.7 μg g −1 for MT-I and 1.0 μg g −1 for MT-II, with recoveries ranging from 96.2 to 104.2% for MT-I and 84.7 to 90.4% for MT-II in different fish tissues. The relative standard deviations were less than 8% for both isoforms. Graphical abstract

Ti (IV)-modified vinyl phosphate magnetic nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @KH570-PO 4 -Ti (IV)) was prepared for simultaneous extraction of multiple arsenic species, followed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)– inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) analysis. Inorganic arsenic (iAs), dimethyl arsenic acid (DMA), monomethyl arsenic acid (MMA), p -amino phenyl arsenic acid ( p -ASA), 4-hdroxyphenylarsenic acid (4-OH), phenyl arsenic acid (PAA), and 3-nitro-4-hydroxyphenylarsenic acid (ROX) were investigated as interest analytes. It was found that they were quantitatively adsorbed on Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 @KH570-PO 4 -Ti (IV) at pH 5, and desorbed completely with 0.1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution. Enrichment factor of 100-fold was obtained by consuming 100 mL sample solution. Under the optimal conditions, the method combining MSPE with HPLC-ICP-MS presented a linear range of 1–5000 ng/L for seven arsenic species. The limits of detection were 0.39, 0.60, 0.23, 1.85, 0.54, 0.48, and 0.84 ng/L for DMA, MMA, p -ASA, iAs, 4-OH, PAA, ROX, with the relative standard deviations ( c = 10 ng/L, n = 7) of 3.6, 3.9, 5.5, 12.4, 6.1, 5.8, 5.0, respectively. The accuracy of the method was validated by analyzing BCR 627 Tuna fish. The application potential of the method was further evaluated by chicken muscle and liver samples. No target arsenic species were detected in these samples, and good recoveries (80.6–123%) were obtained for the spiked samples at low, medium, and high concentration levels.

Dietary selenium deficiency is recognized as a global problem. Pork is the most widely consumed meat throughout the world and an important source of selenium for humans. In this study, a reliable approach was developed for analyzing selenium and its speciation in the muscles of pigs after different selenium treatments. The selenium source deposition efficiency was ranked as: selenomethionine > methylselenocysteine > selenite, and the muscle selenium content had a dose effect with selenomethionine supplementation. In total, four species of selenium were detected in the muscles of pigs and the distributions of these selenium species were greatly affected by the dietary selenium supplementation forms and levels. Selenomethionine (>70% of total selenium) and selenocystine (>11%) were the major selenium species, followed by methylselenocysteine and selenourea. Therefore, selenium-enriched pork produced from selenomethionine is a good source for improving human dietary selenium intake.

The analysis of iodine content in kelp is mainly focused on determining total iodine content, which lacks a rapid and sensitive analytical method for iodine species corresponding to iodate, iodide, monoiodotyrosine (MIT), and diiodo-tyrosine (DIT). Based on exploring the pretreatment methods of enzymatic hydrolysis of kelp, a rapid determination method of high-performance liquid chromatography and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HPLC-ICP-MS) for different iodine species existed in kelp samples was established. The pretreatment method is trypsin hydrolysis of kelp samples treated at 50°C for 10 hours, then the extraction solution was obtained by centrifugation, and filtration was proved for the first time. A high-efficiency separation anion-exchange column (Dionex IonPac AS-14) for iodate, iodide, MIT, and DIT with 0.1 mol·L−1(NH4)2CO3 solution at pH = 9 as a mobile phase, a flow rate of 0.8 mL·min−1 for the first 1500 s, and 1.2 mL·min−1 for the last 1800 s was confirmed. The linear ranges of the standard calibrations on four iodine species are 1.0–150 μg·L−1, and the detection limits are 1.62, 1.02, 1.59, and 2.55 μg·L−1, respectively, while the RSD values of four iodine species are all less than 2%. Under the optimized conditions, the proposed method was successfully applied for the speciation analysis of iodine in kelp samples.

Zwitterion-functionalized polymer microspheres (ZPMs) have been designed and used as the core adsorbent for the selective and rapid enrichment of mercury species in environmental waters by an on-line solid-phase extraction (SPE). Zwitterionic S-ZPMs and N-ZPMs having an anionic sulfonic group, but differing in cationic S + and N + moieties were prepared from Merrifield resin by treating with 1,2-ethanedithiol and imidazole , followed by modification with 1,3-propanesultone. Without any additional reagents, inorganic mercury (In-Hg), methylmercury (MeHg) and ethylmercury (EtHg) were quantitatively adsorbed on the home-made mini-column packed with ZPMs. Following extraction with 60 mM ammonium acetate and 0.15% L -cysteine ( L -Cys) solution within seconds, separation and speciation of mercury were successfully achieved by the HPLC–ICP-MS technique. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the enrichment factors (EFs) are up to 105 and 98 for inorganic and organic mercury only with 40 mL sample solution, respectively. The low detection limits of 0.78 ng L −1 , 0.63 ng L −1 , and 0.49 ng L −1 were reached for In-Hg, MeHg and EtHg, respectively, with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) below 4.1%. The feasibility and accuracy of the on-line SPE–HPLC–ICP-MS method were successfully applied for mercury speciation in surface water, seawater as well as certified reference material (CRM). The results here demonstrate a facile, sensitive and selective method for speciation of mercury at trace levels.

The production of selenium-enriched fish contributes to alleviating selenium deficiency for humans. In this study, selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) comparable in bioavailability to selenomethionine (SeMet), increased SeMet content in O. macrolepis ( Onychostoma macrolepis ) muscle. Additionally, dietary SeNPs significantly enhanced selenocysteine (SeCys 2 ) and methylselenocysteine (MeSeCys) levels in O. macrolepis muscle. The effect of SeNPs on selenium speciation in grass carp muscle was consistent with O. macrolepis results. SeCys 2 and MeSeCys showed antioxidant capacity in HEK293T cells, indicating enhanced health benefits of Se-enriched fish produced using SeNPs. Furthermore, the addition of 0.3 mg/kg SeNPs significantly improved the flesh quality of O. macrolepis by reducing the content of crude fat and heavy metals, as well as increasing the levels of crude protein, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and the ratio of n-3/n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Therefore, selenium-enriched fish produced from SeNPs is a good source for improving human dietary selenium intake.

The complex and cumbersome preparation of magnetic covalent organic frameworks (COFs) nanocomposites on a small scale limits their application. Herein, a rapid and easy route was employed for the preparation of magnetic thiourea-based COFs nanocomposites. COFs were coated on Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles at room temperature without a catalyst within approximately 30 min. This method is suitable for the large-scale preparation of magnetic adsorbent. Using the as-prepared magnetic adsorbent (Fe 3 O 4 @COF-TpTU), we developed a simple, efficient, and sensitive magnetic solid-phase extraction-high performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (MSPE-HPLC-ICP-MS) for the enrichment and determination of mercury species, including Hg 2+ , methylmercury (MeHg), and ethylmercury (EtHg). The effects of the experimental parameters on the extraction efficiency, including solution pH, adsorption and desorption time, composition and volume of the elution solvent, salinity, coexisting ions, and dissolved organic matter, were comprehensively investigated. Under optimised conditions, the limits of detection in the developed method were 0.56, 0.34, and 0.47 ng L −1 with enrichment factors of 190, 195, and 180-fold for Hg 2+ , MeHg, and EtHg, respectively. The satisfactory spiked recoveries (97.0–103%) in real water samples and high consistency between the certified and determined values in a certified reference material demonstrate the high accuracy and reproducibility of the developed method. The as-proposed method with simple operation, high sensitivity, and excellent anti-matrix interference performance was successfully applied to the enrichment and determination of trace levels of mercury species in the natural samples with complicated matrices, such as underground water, surface water, seawater and biological samples.

Ion-pair reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC-ICP-MS) has been used to determine two inorganic iodine species (I− and IO3−) and two organic iodinated amino acids (MIT and DIT) in seaweed and seawater samples within 5 min. The mobile phase used for a reversed phase C18 column was as follows: 2.0 mM tetraethylammonium hydroxide, 10 mM L-phenylalanine and 1% methanol (pH 8.9). Values of 1.5 mL min−1 for the flow rate of the mobile phase and 25 °C for the column temperature were selected for rapid separation of iodine species. The detection limits for IO3−, I−, MIT and DIT were 0.061, 0.052, 0.079 and 0.24 μg L−1, each, and the repeatabilities of peak height and peak area (20 μg L−1 for iodide and iodate, 40 μg L−1 for MIT, 100 μg L−1 for DIT) were all lower than 4%. Under the optimized conditions, the proposed method was successfully applied for the speciation analysis of iodine in seaweed and seawater samples. Recoveries of IO3−, I−, MIT and DIT in seaweed and seawater samples were between 90 and 110%. All results prove its advantages including high sensitivity, environmentally friendly, low time consumption, which are beneficial for routine analysis of iodine speciation in environmental and food fields.

Arsenic species were quantified to further explore the biotransformation of arsenic and better explain the potential health risks. In this research, the levels of six arsenic species (AsB, AsC, MMA, DMA, As 3+ , and As 5+ ) were determined in 160 squid samples by HPLC-ICP-MS. AsB was the most predominant speciation in squid tissues. The arsenic species, including AsB, AsC, and MMA, were found in all samples, followed by DMA (49.38%), As 3+ (21.25%), and As 5+ (2.5%). Results indicated squid samples from offshore had higher levels of AsB, AsC, MMA, and DMA. Pearson’s correlation analysis found correlations between As-MMA, DMA-As 5+ , and AsB-MMA, which showed a clear methylation pathway. The levels of inorganic arsenic were below the standard, and no potential health risks were identified. Therefore, the application of total arsenic in our previous study to assess health risks may be biased. In future, there is a need to optimize food safety monitoring of arsenic and comprehensively grasp the basic status and change law of marine ecological environment.

The speciation analysis of arsenic (As) has always received great attention, in which the analysis of complex matrix samples remains challenging, mainly manifested in selection of suitable sample pretreatment methods and sensitive analytical spectrometers. In this work, microwave-assisted extraction of total As and various As species in bones, with their respective determination by ICP-MS and HPLC-ICP-MS, was studied, and was successfully utilized to determine As species in panda and pig bones. The results reveal the content of As ranging from 28 to 75 μg g −1 in the panda bone samples and 0.27 μg g −1 in pig bone, in which >90% is inorganic As V except for little As III and organic As. The method could be applicable to the analysis of diverse bone samples.

Extraction of arsenic (As) species in leafy vegetables was investigated by different combinations of methods and extractants. The extracted As species were separated and determined by HPLC-ICP-MS method. The microwave assisted method using 1% HNO 3 as the extractant exhibited satisfactory efficiency (>90%) at 90 °C for 1.5 h. The proposed method was applied for extracting As species from real leafy vegetables. Thirteen cultivars of leafy vegetables were collected and analyzed. The predominant species in all the investigated vegetable samples were As(III) and As(V). Moreover, both As(III) and As(V) concentrations were positive significant ( p < 0.01) correlated with total As (tAs) concentration. However, the percentage of As(V) reduced with tAs concentration increasing probably due to the conversion and transformation of As(V) to As(III) after uptake. The hazard quotient results indicated no particular risk to 94.6% of local consumers. Considerably carcinogenic risk by consumption of the leafy vegetables was observed.
