亚临界水萃取在分析化学中的应用

亚临界水的介电常数ε随温度增加而减少,在250℃时ε值只有27（介于甲醇与乙醇之间）,比常温常压下下水的介电常数ε＝80下降了许多。亚临界水极性的减弱,使它对中极性和非极性有机化合物的溶解度大大增加,可以定量萃取出固体试样中的多环芳烃和多氯联苯化合物。另外,亚临界水也可以作为反相高效液体色谱的洗脱液。     

Effects of Different Processing Methods Based on Different Drying Conditions on the Active Ingredients of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge

Compared to the traditional processing method, fresh processing can significantly enhance the preservation of biologically active ingredients and reduce processing time. This study evaluated the influences of fresh and traditional processing based on different drying conditions (sun drying, oven drying and shade drying) on the active ingredients in the roots and rhizomes of S. miltiorrhiza. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was utilized to determine the contents of six active ingredients in the roots and rhizomes of S. miltiorrhiza. The data were analyzed by fingerprint similarity evaluation, hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and principal component analysis (PCA). The results suggest that compared to the traditional processing method, the fresh processing method may significantly increase the preservation of biologically active ingredients. Furthermore, the findings demonstrated that among the three drying methods under fresh processing conditions, the shade-drying (21.02–26.38%) method is most beneficial for retaining the active ingredients in the roots and rhizomes of S. miltiorrhiza. Moreover, the fingerprint analysis identified 17 common peaks, and the similarity of fingerprints among samples processed by different methods ranged from 0.989 to 1.000. Collectively, these results suggest novel processing methods that may improve the yield of active ingredients for S. miltiorrhiza and may be implemented for industrial production.

Isolation of Garlic Bioactives by Pressurized Liquid and Subcritical Water Extraction

Garlic (Allium sativum L.) is widely used in various food products and traditional medicine. Besides unique taste and flavour, it is well known for its chemical profile and bioactive potential. The aim of this study was to apply subcritical water extraction (SWE) and pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) for the extraction of bioactive compounds from the Ranco genotype of garlic. Moreover, PLE process was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) in order to determine effects and optimize ethanol concentration (45–75%), number of cycles (1–3), extraction time (1–3 min) and temperature (70–110 °C) for maximized total phenols content (TP) and antioxidant activity evaluated by various in vitro assays. Furthermore, temperature effect in SWE process on all responses was evaluated, while allicin content (AC), as a major organosulphur compound, was determined in all samples. Results indicated that PLE provided tremendous advantage over SWE in terms of improved yield and antioxidant activity of garlic extracts. Therefore, high-pressure processes could be used as clean and green procedures for the isolation of garlic bioactives.

Electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical studies of four tanshinones from Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge

The spectra of four tanshinones in the potentiostatic reduction process, including tanshinone I, dihydrotanshinone I, tanshinone IIA and cryptotanshinone, were investigated using spectroelectrochemical cell and UV spectrophotometer. Their cyclic voltammograms （CVs） were recorded with a glassy carbon electrode （GCE）. The experiment results show that the antioxidant activity of these tanshinones, in the structure, where A, B and C rings connect through a single double bond, is weaker than that where A ring does not have double bond. Moreover, the increasing angle strain in the reduction process could enhance the antioxidant activity. In summary, the rank of antioxidant activities of these tanshinones, from weak to strong, is tanshinone I, dihydrotanshinone I, tanshinone IIA and cryptotanshinone.     

Desulfurization of Morupule Coal with Subcritical Aqueous Ethanol Extraction

Coal combustion greatly contributes to global emissions of toxic gases into the atmosphere, with sulfur emissions as one of the prominent pollutants in addition to carbon dioxide. Nevertheless, Botswana utilizes Morupule''s sub‐bituminous coal with average sulfur and ash contents, as determined in this study being 1.9 and 24.4 % by weight with an average calorific value of 22 MJ Kg⁻¹ to generate electricity. We report an optimized extraction method for reducing total sulfur in Morupule coal from 1.9±0.2 to 0.43±0.02 wt.% at optimum conditions of ethanol/water (90/10, v/v %) at 129 °C (105 bars) in 10 minutes. A Box–Behnken experimental design was employed to select the optimal conditions of temperature (100–180 °C), water proportion in ethanol (10–90, v/v %) and extraction time (10–30 minutes), thus reducing the total sulfur under these mild conditions compared to conventional extraction. The optimized conditions were however not efficient in removing ash.     

Identifying chemical markers in wine-processed Salvia miltiorrhiza using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight-tandem mass spectrometry

To find the chemical markers of wine-processed Salvia miltiorrhiza (WSM), 76 constituents, including diterpenoid quinones and phenolic acids in Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM) and WSM, were profiled using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) in positive- and the negative-ion modes. Thirty compounds were screened out as candidate differential components using chemometrics analysis, and the concentration of most compounds increased after processing with wine. Seven compounds, namely tanshinone IIA, magnesium lithospermate B, salvianolic acid G, cryptotanshinone, isocryptotanshinone, salvianolic acid B, and rosmarinic acid, were selected as chemical markers of WSM using variable importance of the project. This study revealed the chemical markers of WSM and confirmed that WSM can improve the extraction and solubility effect of chemical constituents.     

Micelle-mediated extraction of tanshinones from Salvia miltiorrhiza bunge with analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography

The feasibility of employing non-ionic surfactant oligoethylene glycol monoalkyl ether (Genapol X-080) as an alternative and effective solvent for the extraction of tanshinones from Salvia miltiorrhiza bunge was studied for the first time. Various experimental conditions were investigated to optimize the extraction. Under optimum conditions, i.e. 10% Genapol X-080 (w/v), liquid/solid ratio of 20:1 (ml g⁻¹), ultrasonic-assisted extraction for 45 min, the extraction recovery of the tanshinones reached the highest value. When compared with commonly used solvents, 10% Genapol X-080 yielded almost the same extraction efficiency as methanol and dichloromethane-methanol (1:4). For the pre-concentration of tanshinones by cloud-point extraction (CPE), sodium chloride was added to the solution to facilitate the phase separation and increase the pre-concentration factor by reducing the volume of the surfactant-rich phase.

Simultaneous Determination of Seven Lipophilic and Hydrophilic Components in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge by LC-MS/MS Method and Its Application to a Transport Study in a Blood-Brain-Barrier Cell Model

Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge (SM) has been extensively used in Alzheimer’s disease treatment, the permeability through the blood-brain barrier (BBB) determining its efficacy. However, the transport mechanism of SM components across the BBB remains to be clarified. A simple, precise, and sensitive method using LC-MS/MS was developed for simultaneous quantification of tanshinone I (TS I), dihydrotanshinone I (DTS I), tanshinone IIA (TS IIA), cryptotanshinone (CTS), protocatechuic aldehyde (PAL), protocatechuic acid (PCTA), and caffeic acid (CFA) in transport samples. The analytes were separated on a C18 column by gradient elution. Multiple reaction monitoring mode via electrospray ionization source was used to quantify the analytes in positive mode for TS I, DTS I, TS IIA, CTS, and negative mode for PAL, PCTA, and CFA. The linearity ranges were 0.1–8 ng/mL for TS I and DTS I, 0.2–8 ng/mL for TS IIA, 1–80 ng/mL for CTS, 20–800 ng/mL for PAL and CFA, and 10–4000 ng/mL for PCTA. The developed method was accurate and precise for the compounds. The relative matrix effect was less than 15%, and the analytes were stable for analysis. The established method was successfully applied for transport experiments on a BBB cell model to evaluate the apparent permeability of the seven components.

Comparison of the chromatographic fingerprint,multicomponent quantitation and antioxidant activity of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge. between sweating and nonsweating

Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge. is a traditional Chinese medicine applied in the treatment of various diseases in clinical practice. In the course of its processing, S. miltiorrhiza Bge. is usually processed by sweating. This study employed 10‐component contents determination coupled with high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fingerprint and antioxidant activity to investigate the effect of sweating on S. miltiorrhiza Bge. so as to evaluate the quality of S. miltiorrhiza Bge. The HPLC method was performed using C₁₈ and 0.05% phosphoric acid aqueous solution–acetonitrile with a gradient elution system. It was validated for linearity, precision, repeatability, stability and recovery. Similarity analysis, principal components analysis and antioxidant activity assays were used to compare sweated S. miltiorrhiza Bge. (SSM) and nonsweated S. miltiorrhiza Bge. (NSSM). SSM and NSSM showed good similarities in HPLC fingerprint (>0.9), but principal components analysis could classify the HPLC fingerprint and 10‐component quantitation analysis. Meanwhile, the antioxidant activity of SSM was significantly higher than that of NSSM (p < 0.01). The results of this study indicated that sweating could alter the content of chemical constituents in S. miltiorrhiza Bge., and could also improve its antioxidant activity. In addition, the method not only affords a viable strategy for comparing SSM and NSSM and assessing the quality of S. miltiorrhiza Bge., but also provides a reference for other herbal medicine that suffers from sweating.     

Protein Hydrolysis by Subcritical Water: A New Perspective on Obtaining Bioactive Peptides

The importance of bioactive peptides lies in their diverse applications in the pharmaceutical and food industries. In addition, they have been projected as allies in the control and prevention of certain diseases due to their associated antioxidant, antihypertensive, or hypoglycemic activities, just to mention a few. Obtaining these peptides has been performed traditionally by fermentation processes or enzymatic hydrolysis. In recent years, the use of supercritical fluid technology, specifically subcritical water (SW), has been positioned as an efficient and sustainable alternative to obtain peptides from various protein sources. This review presents and discusses updated research reports on the use of subcritical water to obtain bioactive peptides, its hydrolysis mechanism, and the experimental designs used for the study of effects from factors involved in the hydrolysis process. The aim was to promote obtaining peptides by green technology and to clarify perspectives that still need to be explored in the use of subcritical water in protein hydrolysis.
