Hoffmann, Jessica Fernanda published the artcileVolatile compounds profile of Brazilian aromatic brown rice genotypes and its cooking quality characteristics, Related Products of alcohols-buliding-blocks, the main research area is volatile compound brown rice cooking.

Background and objectives : This study evaluated the volatile profile by solid-phase microextraction (SPME)-gas chromatog./mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and the cooking quality properties of seven aromatic and one non-aromatic rice genotypes grown in Brazil. Findings : Twenty-three volatile compounds were identified by SPME-GC/MS anal. PCA and PLS-DA allowed the separation of aromatic and non-aromatic genotypes. PLS-DA anal. revealed six compounds as discriminating between groups: 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2-AP), decanal, 2-hexanone, 2-pentylfuran, 1-hexanol, and hexanal. 2-AP was detected only in aromatic genotypes, and the content varied from 0.21 to 0.57 μg/g. Cooking time changed from 23.5 to 38.3 min in the new aromatic genotypes while hardness changed from 52.7 to 100.7 N. Conclusions : Our study revealed six volatile compounds as discriminants between aromatic and non-aromatic genotypes grown in Brazil. 2-AP was identified only in aromatic genotypes. Genotype BR5 exhibited the best general performance since their volatile compounds results indicate less off-flavors (hexanal), higher 2-AP content, and similar cooking time and hardness to IRG and JAS. Significance and novelty : Results may help rice chain in selecting Brazilian genotypes of aromatic rice to be grown in Brazil and distributed worldwide. Also, this work may serve as a starting point for future work on aromatic rice authenticity.

Zhao, Cong published the artcileCharacterization of key aroma compounds in pixian broad bean paste through the molecular sensory science technique, Related Products of alcohols-buliding-blocks, the main research area is pixian broad bean paste key aroma compound mol sensory.

The Pixian broad bean paste (PBBP) is widely welcomed by consumers in China due to its unique aroma. The objective of this study was to characterize the key aroma of PBBP. The aromas of PBBP were fractionated by normal phase-liquid chromatog. (NP-LC) and detected and identified by gas chromatog.-olfactory (GC-O) coupled with gas chromatog.-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and quantitated by stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE). The results showed that 58 aroma-active compounds were identified in PBBP, of which acids and phenolics had the highest concentration, and 39 odorants were demonstrated as important odorants. Besides, aroma recombination tests and statistical anal. showed that the original PBBP and recombinant have no significant difference in sweat/sour, roasted, and floral attributes, proving that this study successfully simulated the typical aroma of PBBP. The omission tests demonstrated 4-ethylguaiacol and 4-vinylguaiacol as the key odorants and revealed the significance of sotolon, 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone (HDMF), the entire class of phenolics, and the entire class of acids, particularly acetic acid, 3-methylbutanoic acid, 4-methylpentanoic acid may have a synergistic effect, for the overall aroma of the PBBP.

Christian, Arias-Reyes published the artcileNADH-linked mitochondrial respiration in the developing mouse brain is sex-, age- and tissue-dependent, Application In Synthesis of 97-67-6, the main research area is NADH ATP synthase brainstem cortex sexual dimorphism oxidative phosphorylation; Brain development; Brainstem; Mice; Mitochondria; Sex dimorphism; cortex.

Mitochondria play a major role in the brain. In this work, we collected samples of brainstem and cortex of mice at postnatal ages 3 (P3), 21 (P21), and at adulthood (3 mo old) and evaluated the mitochondrial oxygen consumption after complex I activation. To do so, we used our oxygraph-2 K system (OROBOROS) that measures the mitochondrial bioenergetics in saponin-permeabilized tissue punches of 2 mg weight Furthermore, as sex dimorphism in the brain occurs since very early stages of development, we performed experiments in brain samples of male and female mice. Accordingly, the mitochondrial oxygen consumption rate (OCR) was evaluated under activation of complex I (NADH-linked respiration – mitochondrial state 3), and during the inhibition of the complex V (ATP synthase) with oligomycin (mitochondrial state 4). In following, the respiratory control ratio (RCR – state 3/state4) was calculated as an index of mitochondrial oxidative-phosphorylation coupling. Our results show that the activity of the mitochondrial complex I in the brain increases along with the postnatal development in a sex- and tissue-dependent manner, with males showing higher activity than females, and with brainstem tissue showing higher activity than cortex. Our data may contribute to a better understanding of the sex-dependent maturation of the cortex and the cardiorespiratory network located in the brainstem.

Hong, Yubiao published the artcileChiral-at-Iron Catalyst: Expanding the Chemical Space for Asymmetric Earth-Abundant Metal Catalysis, Related Products of alcohols-buliding-blocks, the main research area is chiral iron catalyst chem space asym earth abundant metal; enantioselective Cannizzaro reaction; asym Nazarov cyclization.

A new class of chiral iron catalysts is introduced that contains exclusively achiral ligands with the overall chirality being the result of a stereogenic iron center. Specifically, iron(II) is cis-coordinated to two N-(2-pyridyl)-substituted N-heterocyclic carbene (PyNHC) ligands in a bidentate fashion in addition to two monodentate acetonitriles, and the dicationic complex is complemented by two hexafluorophosphate ions. Depending on the helical twist of the PyNHC ligands, the metal center adopts either a Λ or Δ absolute configuration. Importantly, the two PyNHC ligands are constitutionally and configurationally inert, while the two acetonitriles are labile and allow asym. transition metal catalysis. This is demonstrated with an enantioselective Cannizzaro reaction (96% yield, 88% ee) and an asym. Nazarov cyclization (89% yield, >20:1 dr, 83% ee).

Dou, Zuman published the artcileThe effect of ultrasound irradiation on the physicochemical properties and α-glucosidase inhibitory effect of blackberry fruit polysaccharide, Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks, the main research area is blackberry fruit polysaccharide ultrasound irradiation physicochem property.

In this study, the influence of ultrasound irradiation on the characterization and α-glucosidase inhibitory effect of polysaccharide from blackberry fruit (BBP, mol. weight of 591.39 kDa) was investigated. After degraded, BBP-8, BBP-16 and BBP-24 three fractions were obtained with mol. weight of 363.93, 249.51 and 177.42 KDa, resp. Moreover, compared with the particle size of BBP (1070.5 nm), that of BBP-8, BBP-16 and BBP-24 were decreased to 679.9, 548.8 and 395.4 nm, resp. However, the monosaccharide composition test, FT-IR, and tertiary structure anal. all indicated that the ultrasound did not destroy the primary structure of the original polysaccharide. In addition, the degraded polysaccharide (BBP-24) exhibited the stronger α-glucosidase inhibitory activity than that of BBP. By fluorescence spectrum and CD spectrum anal., we found that the polysaccharide could induce the structure change like rigidity structure (α-helixe) and loop structure (random coil) of α-glucosidase to inhibit its activity by binding to the α-glucosidase. The polysaccharide with different mol. weight showed different binding capacity which was related to its inhibitory effect on the α-glucosidase. In general, the results suggested that appropriate degradation was benefit for the enhancement of the inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase of blackberry polysaccharide, and ultrasound irradiation was a green and efficient method to produce bioactivity-added polysaccharide for use in the functional food.

Chen, Xiaoxia published the artcileStructural characterization and osteogenic bioactivities of a novel Humulus lupulus polysaccharide, Safety of (2R,3S,4S,5R)-2,3,4,5,6-Pentahydroxyhexanal, the main research area is Humulus osteoporosis osteogenicity polysaccharide.

The female flowers of H. lupulus are also used in traditional Chinese medicine, but the biol. active ingredients underlying its benefits remain unclear. In this study, we isolated a homogeneous polysaccharide (HLP50-1) with a mol. weight of 49.13 kDa from female flowers of H. lupulus via a DEAE-Cellulose 52 anion exchange column and a Sephadex G-75 gel filtration column. Methylation, GC-MS, and NMR analyses revealed that the HLP50-1 comprised (â†?)-α-D-Glcp-(1â†? â†?)-α-D-Manp-(1â†? â†?)-α-L-Rhap-(1â†?, β-D-Glcp-(1â†?, α-L-Araf-(1â†? â†?,6)-2-OAc-β-D-Galp-(1â†? β-D-Galp-(1â†? â†?,6))-β-D-Glcp-(1â†? â†?,3,4)-α-D-Xylp-(1â†? â†?)-α-D-Glcp-(1â†? â†?)-α-D-Galp-(1â†? â†?)-α-D-Galp-(1â†?. Advanced structural anal. showed that the HLP50-1 contained irregular fragments of different sizes and shapes with a smooth surface. The aggregates appeared be composed of accumulated crystals. Furthermore, the osteogenic activities of the HLP50-1 were evaluated via MC3T3-E1 cells in vitro. The results showed that 0.13μM HLP50-1 led to outstanding proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization of the MC3T3-E1 cells. Therefore, HLP50-1 has osteogenic effects, and it may be a candidate for the treatment of osteoporosis. It has broad application prospects in functional foods, health-care products, and pharmaceuticals.

Aroulmoji, Vincent published the artcileSolution properties and the masking of unpleasant tastes of nicotine – sweetener – water mixtures, Product Details of C12H24O11, the main research area is nicotine sweetener water mixture solution unpleasant taste.

Solutions properties of sapide mols. provide fundamental information on type (hydrophobic or hydrophilic) and degree of hydration. Physico-Chem. properties like intrinsic viscosity, Apparent Sp. volume (ASV) and related parameters for bitter mol. (nicotine) and bitterness inhibitors (carbohydrate sweeteners, artificial sweeteners) and their mixtures were determined to study the role of water structure in the mechanism of unpleasant taste inhibition. The hydrophobicity of bitter mol. (nicotine) is manifested by ASV value of 0.920 cm3g-1 obtained in artificial buffered saliva (pH â‰?8.2). Under these conditions nicotine (3-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)pyridine) is in neutral form, the most potentially hydrophobic. Exptl. results indicate that viscometric constant (intrinsic viscosity [η], Huggins constant k’, B coefficient) could discriminate between different sapid mols. tested at our laboratory The ASV value of carbohydrate sweeteners falls within the sweet region. The bitterness of nicotine is manifested by ASV as high as 0.920 cm3g-1, which falls in the bitter region. Solution properties also determined for sweet-bitter mixtures validate an improvement in the fitting of solute mols. with solvent structure through the decrease of ASV which falls in the range of ASVs of sweet mols. The results of viscometric constants and hydration number of sweet-bitter mixtures illustrate an obvious effect of sweet mols. on the hydration property of nicotine. The effect of sweetener on the solution property of bitter mol. (nicotine) is attributed to a modification of hydration. This exptl. result validates the assumption in designating sweetener as bitterness inhibitor. The mechanism of inhibition of bitterness by sweet mols. may be credited to the arrangement of water mols. hydration which is more mobile.

Cai, Cheng published the artcileComparison of Two Acid Hydrotropes for Sustainable Fractionation of Birch Wood, Safety of 3-Pentanol, the main research area is acid hydrotrope sustainable birch wood; acid recovery; cellulose nanofibrils; esterification; lignin; maleic acid.

This study reports on a comparative study of acid hydrotropic fractionation (AHF) of birch wood using maleic acid (MA) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TsOH). Under the same level of delignification, lignin dissolved by MA is much less condensed with a higher content of ether aryl β-O-4 linkages. Lignin depolymerization dominated in MA hydrotropic fractionation (MAHF) and resulted in a single lower mol. weight peak, in contrast to the competitive depolymerization and repolymn. in p-TsOH AHF with a bimodal distribution. The less condensed MA-dissolved lignin facilitated catalytic conversion to monophenols. Carboxylation of residual lignin in fractionated cellulosic water-insoluble solids (WISs) enhanced enzymic saccharification by decreasing nonproductive cellulase binding to lignin. At a low cellulase loading of 10 FPU g-1 glucan, saccharification of WIS-MT120 from MAHF at 120°C was 95% compared with 48% for WIS-PT85 from p-TsOH AHF at 85°C under the same level of delignification of 63%. Residual lignin carboxylation also facilitated nanofibrillation of WIS for producing lignin-containing cellulose nanofibrils (LCNFs) through an enhanced lignin lubrication effect, which substantially decreases fibrillation energy. LCNFs from only one pass of microfluidization of WIS-MT120 have the same morphol. as those from WIS-PT85 after three passes. MA also has a lower solubility and higher minimal hydrotropic concentration, which facilitated acid recovery. MA is U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved as an indirect food additive, affording significant advantages compared with p-TsOH for biorefinery applications.

Churakova, Ekaterina published the artcileAccurate analysis of residual lactose in low-lactose milk: Comparing a variety of analytical techniques, COA of Formula: C6H12O6, the main research area is milk lactose HPAEC PAD residual analysis.

To receive the designation “”lactose-free””, milk should contain <0.01% (weight/weight) lactose. As the anal. of such low levels of lactose is often hampered by other saccharides present or formed during milk processing, methods are required that are highly sensitive, accurate and precise. Currently, there is no international standard anal. method for the determination of lactose in low- or lactose-free milk, despite such a need from the dairy industry. We validated the anal. of residual lactose in lactase-treated UHT milk using HPAEC-PAD on a CarboPac PA100 column and compared it with a variety of commonly used anal. techniques for measuring lactose, including HPLC-RI, NMR, enzymic kits, cryoscopy, and lactose biosensors. The results show that only one anal. technique, namely the Biomilk300, an amperometric biosensor, has performance comparable with anal. by HPAEC-PAD, which remains one of the most accurate, precise and sensitive methods to assess low levels of lactose in milk.

Cai, Zhongyu published the artcileResponsive Photonic Crystal Carbohydrate Hydrogel Sensor Materials for Selective and Sensitive Lectin Protein Detection, HPLC of Formula: 2595-07-5, the main research area is photonic crystal carbohydrate hydrogel sensor detection lectin; biosensors; carbohydrate hydrogels; copolymerization; lectin proteins detection; photonic crystals.

Lectin proteins, such as the highly toxic lectin protein, ricin, and the immunochem. important lectin, jacalin, play significant roles in many biol. functions. It is highly desirable to develop a simple but efficient method to selectively detect lectin proteins. Here the authors report the development of carbohydrate containing responsive hydrogel sensing materials for the selective detection of lectin proteins. The copolymerization of a vinyl linked carbohydrate monomer with acrylamide and acrylic acid forms a carbohydrate hydrogel that shows specific “”multivalent”” binding to lectin proteins. The resulting carbohydrate hydrogels are attached to 2-D photonic crystals (PCs) that brightly diffract visible light. This diffraction provides an optical readout that sensitively monitors the hydrogel volume The authors use lactose, galactose, and mannose containing hydrogels to fabricate a series of 2-D PC sensors that show strong selective binding to the lectin proteins ricin, jacalin, and Con A. This binding causes a carbohydrate hydrogel shrinkage which significantly shifts the diffraction wavelength. The resulting 2-D PC sensors can selectively detect the lectin proteins ricin, jacalin, and Con A. These unoptimized 2-D PC hydrogel sensors show a limit of detection (LoD) of 7.5 × 10-8 M for ricin, a LoD of 2.3 × 10-7 M for jacalin, and a LoD of 3.8 × 10-8 M for Con A, resp. This sensor fabrication approach may enable numerous sensors for the selective detection of numerous lectin proteins.
