Determination of irradiation histories of raw beef livers using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry of 5,6-dihydrothymidine.
Food Chemistry 2017 Februrary 2
A method for detecting irradiation histories of raw beef livers was developed by measuring 5,6-dihydrothymidine (DHdThd) using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Liver DNA was extracted using phenol-chloroform extraction followed by precipitation in 50% ethanol. DNA was then enzymatically digested and nucleosides were purified using an OASIS MCX column. DHdThd and thymidine (dThd) contents of resulting test solutions were analyzed using LC-MS/MS. DHdThd was detected specifically after γ-irradiation. Concentration ratios of DHdThd to dThd in the test solutions increased dose-dependently after irradiation at 1.0-11.3kGy, which included the practical dose for sterilization of 2-7kGy. Dose-response curves from beef livers of individual animals almost overlapped. Thus, this method is a candidate for the detection of irradiation histories of foods from which DNA can be extracted.
