Application of enriched stable isotopes as tracers in biological systems: a critical review

The application of enriched stable isotopes of minerals and trace elements as tracers in biological systems is a rapidly growing research field that benefits from the many new developments in inorganic mass spectrometric instrumentation, primarily within inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) instrumentation, such as reaction/collision cell ICP-MS and multicollector ICP-MS with improved isotope ratio measurement and interference removal capabilities. Adaptation and refinement of radioisotope tracer experiment methodologies for enriched stable isotope experiments, and the development of new methodologies coupled with more advanced compartmental and mathematical models for the distribution of elements in living organisms has enabled a broader use of enriched stable isotope experiments in the biological sciences. This review discusses the current and future uses of enriched stable isotope experiments in biological systems.     

Stereoelective polymerization of D,L-lactide using N-heterocyclic carbene based compounds

A new Zn alkoxide catalyst supported by an N-heterocyclic carbene rapidly polymerizes D,L-lactide (D,L-LA) to heterotactic enriched poly(lactide)(PLA), while the free carbene and analogs instead yield highly isotactic enriched PLA.     

Working methods paper: Micro‐scale preparation and characterization of isotopically enriched monomethylmercury

A synthesis method for the micro‐scale laboratory preparation of isotopically enriched monomethylmercury (MMHg) has been successfully established. This compound is an important standard for species‐specific isotope dilution analysis. The isotopically enriched MMHg has been synthesized from commercially available mercury oxide (²⁰¹HgO) using methylcobalamin co‐enzyme as methylating agent. The time required is less than 2 h and the final yield is about 90%. The proposed method is faster than those previously reported in the literature. It allows work on a micro scale to control the use of expensive enriched isotope standard. It also allows control of unintentional formation of dimethylmercury. The enriched mercury‐containing reaction products were analyzed by capillary gas chromatography coupled to an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer after derivatization with sodium tetraethylborate. The isotopic composition, concentration, purity and stability of the synthesized, enriched MMHg have been investigated in order to establish standard protocols for MMHg isotope dilution analysis or isotope labeling incubation experiments.

Hydrothermal Carbon Enriched with Oxygenated Groups from Biomass Glucose as an Efficient Carbocatalyst

Metal‐free carbocatalysts enriched with specific oxygenated groups with different morphology and size were synthesized from glucose by hydrothermal carbonization, in which cheap and widely available biomass could be converted into functionalized carbon using an environmentally benign process. The hydroxy‐ and carbonyl‐enriched hydrothermal carbon (HTC) could be used in nitrobenzene reduction, and higher conversion was obtained on the sphere morphology with smaller size. In the Beckmann rearrangement of cyclohexanone oxime, carboxyl‐enriched HTC exhibited superior performance compared with conventional solid acid (such as HY and HZSM‐5), on which the strong acid sites and weak Lewis acid sites lead to high selectivity for the side product. Although the intrinsic acidity of carbon is weak, the carboxyl‐enriched carbon was used in weak Brønsted acid‐catalyzed reactions, such as the Beckmann rearrangement.     

Differential Pulse Voltammetric Determination of Selenocystine Using Selenium‐gold Film Modified Electrode

Differential pulse voltammetric determination of selenocystine (SeC) using selenium‐gold film modified glassy carbon electrode ((Se‐Au)/GC) is presented. In 0.10 mol?L^?1 KNO₃ (pH 3.20) solution, SeC yields a sensitive reduction peak at ?740 mV on (Se‐Au)/GC electrode. The peak current has a linear relationship with the concentration of SeC in the range of 5.0×10^?8–7.0×10^?4 mol?L^?1, and a 3σ detection limit of SeC is 3.0×10^?8 mol?L^?1. The relative standard deviation of the reduction current at SeC concentration of 10^?6 mol?L^?1 is 3.88% (n=8) using the same electrode, and 4.19% when using three modified electrodes prepared at different times. The content of SeC in the selenium‐enriched yeast and selenium‐enriched tea is determined. The total selenium in ordinary or selenium‐enriched tea is determined by DAN fluorescence method. The results indicate that in selenium‐enriched yeast about 20% of total selenium is present as SeC and in selenium‐enriched tea SeC is the major form of selenoamino acids. The total selenium content in selenium‐enriched tea soup is 0.09 μgSe/g accounting by 7% compared with that in selenium‐enriched tea. Hence, only a little amount of selenium is utilized by drinking tea, and most selenium still stay in tealeaf. Uncertainty are 22.4% and 16.1% for determination of SeC in selenium‐enriched yeast and selenium‐enriched tea by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) on (Se‐Au)/GC electrode, respectively.     

Lead Tetraacetate Cleavage of Chiral Phenylglycinol Derived Secondary Amines Without Racemization

Diastereomerically enriched N-(1,1-disubstituted methyl)(2 ‘-hydroxyl’-phenylethyl) amines were oxidatively converted to enantiomerically enriched primary disubstituted methylamines in excellent yields without racemization, using an improved lead tetraacerate (LTA) procedure.     

Influence of Freeze-Dried Phenolic-Rich Plant Powders on the Bioactive Compounds Profile,Antioxidant Activity and Aroma of Different Types of Chocolates

In this study, the blueberries (BLUB), raspberries (RASB), blackberries (BLCB), pomegranates pomace (POME) and beetroots (BEET) freeze-dried powders were used as the sources of phenolic compounds to enrich different types of chocolates, substituting a part of the sweetener. It was found that 1% addition of fruit or vegetable powders to chocolates increased the content of total phenolic compounds (flavan-3-ols, phenolic acids and anthocyanins) of enriched dark and milk chocolates compared to the control ones dependent on the powder used. Among the enriched chocolates, the chocolates with the addition of BLUB powder were characterized by the highest total polyphenol content. The highest percentage increase (approximately 80%) in the total polyphenol content was observed in MCH chocolate enriched with BLUB powder. Chocolates incorporated with BLUB, RASB, BLCB and POME powders presented a richer phenolic compound profile than control counterparts. The highest DPPH radical-scavenging capacity was exhibited by the DCH98S chocolate enriched with BEET powder. However, the DCH98ESt chocolates enriched with POME and BEET powders demonstrated the highest FRAP values. An electronic nose analysis confirmed the existence of differences between the profiles of volatile compounds of various types of chocolates enriched with fruit or vegetable powders. Thus, the enrichment of dark and milk chocolates with BLUB, RASB, BLCB, POME and BEET powders seemed to be an interesting approach to enhance bioactivity and to enrich the sensory features of various chocolate types.     

White Chocolate with Resistant Starch: Impact on Physical Properties,Dietary Fiber Content and Sensory Characteristics

Resistant starch (RS) is a part of insoluble dietary fiber, and it could be recognized as a functional food ingredient in some types of confectionery products that lack dietary fiber. Unlike dark and milk chocolate, white chocolate does not contain fat-free cocoa solids rich in dietary fiber. In the present study, 5%, 10%, and 15% of white chocolate were substituted with RS in order to improve the nutritional value of enriched white chocolate. The influence of RS on rheological, textural, and thermal properties of the chocolate fat phase was firstly investigated, and then further influence on physical properties, dietary fiber content, and sensory characteristics of enriched white chocolates were investigated. The obtained results showed that enriched chocolates had increased content of total dietary fiber and reduced total fats and protein content in accordance with the added amount of RS. At the same time, RS increased viscosity and reduced the hardness and volume mean diameter in enriched chocolates in accordance with the added amount. RS improved the nutritional composition of white chocolate by increasing the content of dietary fiber. At the same time, RS did not impair the color and sensory characteristics of enriched white chocolates.     

Lipase production by Penicillium restrictum using solid waste of industrial babassu oil production as substrate

Lipase, protease, and amylase production by Penicillium restrictum in solid-state fermentation was investigated. The basal medium was an industrial waste of babassu oil (Orbignya oleifera) production. It was enriched with peptone, oliveoil, and Tween-80. The supplementation positively influenced both enzyme production and fungal growth. Media enriched with Tween-80 provided the highest protease activity (8.6 U/g), whereas those enriched with peptone and olive oil led to the highest lipase (27.8 U/g) and amylase (31.8 U/g) activities, respectively.     

Opening of substituted oxetanes with H(2)O(2) and alkyl hydroperoxides: stereoselective approach to 3-peroxyalcohols and 1,2,4-trioxepanes

[reaction: see text] Lewis acid-catalyzed opening of oxetanes by hydrogen peroxide proceeds regioselectively and with good to moderate stereoselectivity to furnish enantiomerically enriched 3-hydroperoxyalkanols. The corresponding opening using alkyl hydroperoxides furnishes 3-peroxyalkanols. The hydroperoxyalkanols are easily converted into enantiomerically enriched 1,2,4-trioxepanes, building blocks for antimalarials.     

Stereoselective cyclopropanation of chiral 5-substituted dihydro-2H-piperazines

The Simmon–Smith cyclopropanation of enantiomerically enriched dehydropiperazines is reported. The reaction is highly stereoselective and allowed us to prepare new, enantiomerically enriched 3-substituted 2,5-diazabicyclo[4.1.0]heptane cores with high diastereomeric purity and a relative anti-configuration, which was assigned by NMR analysis.     

Ruthenium(0) nanoparticle-catalyzed isotope exchange between 10B and 11B nuclei in decaborane(14)

Well dispersed ruthenium(0) nanoparticles, stabilized in the ionic liquid agent, trihexyltetradecylphosphonium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, have been successfully prepared via a reduction reaction of the precursor [CpRuCp*RuCp*]PF6 (Cp* = C5Me5). The ruthenium(0) nanoparticles were shown to catalyze the isotope exchange reaction between 10B enriched diborane and natural abundant B10H14 to produce highly 10B enriched (approximately 90%) decaborane(14) products. The ruthenium(0) nanoparticles were characterized by TEM, XRD, and XPS. The 10B enriched decaborane(14) has been analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, NMR, and high-resolution MS.     

Improvement of oxygen reduction reaction and methanol tolerance characteristics for PdCo electrocatalysts by Au alloying and CO treatment

The mass ORR activity of CO heat-treated PdCoAu/C catalysts, compared to Pd/C, is enhanced approximately 6-fold, and even 25-fold in a methanol containing environment due to the formation of delicate PdCo and PdAu alloys enriched in the core and PdAu alloy species enriched on the shell structure.     

High Enrichment of MMP-9 and Carboxypeptidase A by Tweezing Adsorptive Bubble Separation (TABS)

Tweezing adsorptive bubble separation (TABS) was used as a method for the enrichment of matrix metalloproteinases (92-kDa type IV, gelatinase B (MMP-9)) and carboxypeptidase A (CPA) from dilute aqueous solutions. The method is based on the chelation of metalloenzymes applying 2-(carbamoylmethyl-(carboxymethyl)amino)acetic acid (ADA) coupled with an octyl part to form a surface active unit. MMP-9 could be enriched with an enrichment ratio of 12.0 and a recovery of 87.3%, and CPA could be enriched 18.8-fold and with 95.3% recovery. Both enzymes were enriched without significant losses of enzymatic activity. To verify that the enzymes were tweezed by ADA-C8 without abstraction of the zinc ions from the active center, TABS trials were additionally conducted with zinc ions in complex with ADA-C8, which revealed only negligible enrichment ratios of the enzymes (2.2 for MMP-9 and 0.2 for CPA). The results obtained impressively demonstrate that zinc-containing proteases can be enriched selectively and efficiently by TABS.

The samples of all 4 materials were irradiated in a nuclear reactor, the activity of ¹⁷⁷Lu measured and compared with a computed one. In the case of ¹⁷⁷Lu produced from enriched Lu target the amount of activity obtained is 40 to 70% higher than calculated. The results achieved will be applied for the optimization of ¹⁷⁷Lu production for medical applications.     

A comparative study of some nuclear methods for235U/238U isotopic ratios determination

In the present work, a comparative study is made among nuclear methods for²³⁵U/²³⁸U ratios determination: activation analysis followed by high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometry, delayed neutron counting, passive gamma-ray and alpha spectrometry. Activation analysis followed by high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometry yielded a relative standard deviation down to 0.1% and a relative error of about 1% for standards of uranium enriched to 14%. Passive gamma-ray spectrometry using Ge(Li) detectors yielded a relative error down to 0.1% for enriched uranium and values even lower for the standard deviation. Passive gamma-ray spectrometry using Low Energy Photon Detector (LEPD) yielded a precision of 0.2% and a still better accuracy for enriched standards. In the case of alpha spectrometry, a relative error down to 0.5% and a precision of about 1% were obtained, also for enriched uranium standards. Delayed neutron counting allowed a relative standard deviation of about 7% and a relative error of about 2%, for standards of depleted uranium.

Enrichment of low abundance proteins of Escherichia coli by hydroxyapatite chromatography.

Visualization of low-copy-number gene products is essential for the detection of novel drug targets by differential protein expression studies. We investigated the enrichment of low-abundance proteins of Escherichia coli by hydroxyapatite chromatography. The proteins of the various pools collected from a ceramic hydroxyapatite column were analyzed by two-dimensional electrophoresis and identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry. Approximately 800 spots corresponding to 296 different proteins were identified in the hydroxyapatite eluate. About 130 proteins that had not been detected in the two-dimensional gels of the total extract were identified. Hydroxyapatite chromatography enriched low-abundance but also major components of the E. coli protein extract. In particular, it enriched many low-molecular-mass proteins, such as cold-shock proteins. The proteins bound to the hydroxyapatite matrix belong to several classes, including enzymes with various catalytic activities, heat- and cold-shock proteins and many hypothetical and novel proteins with yet unknown functions. The results include a list of the proteins enriched by hydroxyapatite chromatography and a two-dimensional map of the enriched proteins. They may be useful in the design of protein purification pathways using master purification steps and in the search for novel drug targets.
