Sumario:[Image: see text] Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a common mycotoxin, and it is a significant threat to human health throughout the food chain. In this study, a sensitive and specific fluorescent sensor based on magnetic separation technology combined with chain displacement amplification was developed for fast and easy detection of OTA in food. The designed strand displacement amplification can improve the sensitivity for the detection, and the magnetic nanomaterials can provide a large surface area, thus enhancing the capture efficiency of the target from the sample. Based on those designs, the experimental results showed that the proposed method displayed excellent performance. The linearity range was 0.5–128.0 ng/mL. The detection limit was 0.125 ng/mL; the relative standard deviations were 3.92–7.71%. Additionally, the developed method was satisfactorily applied to determine OTA in wheat, corn, and red wine samples at three spiked levels (1.0, 8.0, and 64.0 ng/mL). The recoveries ranged from 85.45 to 107.8% for wheat flour, 101.34 to 108.35% for corn flour, and 91.15 to 93.80% for red wine, respectively. Compared with high-performance liquid chromatography, the proposed method showed a lower limit of detection and equal recovery. Hence, the designed method is a potential and good detecting tool for OTA residue analysis in complex matrix samples.
