Electropolymerization of single‐walled carbon nanotubes composited with polypyrrole as a solid‐phase microextraction fiber for the detection of acrylamide in food samples using GC with electron‐capture detection

We developed a solid‐phase microextraction coupled to GC with electron‐capture detection method for the detection of acrylamide in food samples. Single‐walled carbon nanotubes and polypyrrole were electropolymerized onto a stainless‐steel wire as a coating, which possessed a homogeneous, porous, and wrinkled surface, chemical and mechanical stability, long lifespan (over 300 extractions), and good extraction efficiency for acrylamide. The linearity range between the signal intensity and the acrylamide concentration was found to be in the range 0.001–1 μg/mL, and the coefficient of determination was 0.9985. The LOD, defined as three times the baseline noise, was 0.26 ng/mL. The reproducibility for each single fiber (n = 6) and the fiber‐to‐fiber (n = 5) repeatability prepared in the same batch were less than 4.1 and 11.2%, respectively.     

A rapid and convenient method for preparative separation of three indissolvable polyphenols from Euphorbia pekinensis by the flexible application of solvent extraction combined with counter‐current chromatography

A rapid and convenient method was established to preparatively isolate the three ellagic acid types of compounds, which were the main polyphenols in Euphorbia pekinensis, by flexibly applying solvent extraction combined with counter‐current chromatography (CCC). The total extract (extracted using 95% ethanol) of E. pekinensis was pretreated by two simple steps before CCC isolation, following the procedure: the total extract was extracted by classical solvent extraction using petroleum ether and ethyl acetate, respectively, and then the ethyl acetate extract was suspended using 95% ethanol, after being allowed to stand overnight, the sediment was obtained. Partial sediment (100 mg) was then directly separated by CCC with a two‐phase solvent system composed of chloroform‐95% ethanol‐water‐85% formic acid (50:50:50:5, v/v/v/v). About 22 mg of 3,3′‐dimethoxy ellagic acid (1), 12 mg of 3,3′‐di‐O‐methyl‐4‐O‐(β‐d ‐xylopyranosyl)ellagic acid (2), and 35 mg of ellagic acid (3) with purities of 96.0, 95.2, and 95.4% were obtained respectively in one step within 4 h. After being purified by washing with methanol, the purities of the three compounds obtained were all above 98%. The purities were determined by HPLC and their chemical structures were further identified by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The recoveries were calculated as 84.6, 85.7, and 89.5%, respectively. The result demonstrated that the present isolation method was rapid, economical and efficient for the preparative separation of polyphenols from E. pekinensis.     

Prenylated Benzene Metabolites from Melicope pteleifolia

Chemical investigation on the stem and root of Melicope pteleifolia afforded three new prenylated benzene metabolites as racemic mixtures, named pteleifolins A–C ( 1 – 3 , resp.). Their gross structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis, especially 2D‐NMR experiments. An enantiomer resolution of (±)‐ 1 using chiral HPLC was performed, and the absolute configuration of the enantiomers were determined to be (+)‐(S)‐ 1 and (?)‐(R)‐ 1 by means of circular‐dichroism analysis.     

Three-Component,Four-Molecule,Ru-Catalyzed Cascade Reactions of Indoles and Alkyl Bromides with Sodium Nitrite

Abstract

An operationally simple domino approach for the ruthenium-catalyzed synthesis of (E)-2,3′-bi(3H-indol)-3-one O-alkyl oximes by the region- and stereoselective three-component, four-molecule reactions of indoles with sodium nitrite and alkyl bromides under mild reaction condition in dimethylformamide is described. Remarkably, multiple bonds including C?C, C=N, and C?O bonds were conveniently formed in one pot. The reaction is tolerant to air and is atom economical, in accordance with the concept of modern green chemistry.     

Enantioselective Synthesis of Chiral Propargylic Alcohols Catalyzed by Bifunctional Zinc-Based Complexes

This work demonstrates an efficient way to prepare chiral propargylic alcohols by asymmetric addition of terminal Zn-acetylide to aldehydes catalyzed by bifunctional zinc-based complexes. The corresponding products with moderate to good yields and enantioselectivities were obtained in the absence of moisture-sensitive Ti(O ⁱ Pr)₄.     

Biomass Composition, Lipid Characterization, and Metabolic Profile Analysis of the Fed-Batch Fermentation Process of Two Different Docosahexanoic Acid Producing Schizochytrium sp. Strains

Growth and fermentation characteristics, biomass composition, lipid characterization and metabolic profiling analysis of two different Schizochytrium sp. strains, the original strain and the industrial adaptive strain, were investigated in the fed-batch fermentation process. The final cell biomass, total lipids content, docosahexanoic acid (DHA) content and DHA productivity of the adaptive strain were much higher than those of the original strain. The metabolic distinctions which extensively existed between these two strains were revealed by the score plot of principal component analysis. In addition, potential biomarkers responsible for discriminating different strains were identified as myo-inositol, histidine, alanine, asparagine, cysteine, and oxalic acid. These findings provided new insights into the industrial strain screening and further improvement of DHA production by Schizochytrium sp.     

化学感觉及其转导机制

化学感觉包括了红辣椒产生的灼烧感、椒样薄荷产生的清凉感、碳酸饮料产生的麻刺感和葡萄酒产生的涩感,是化学物质刺激到感受冷、热、疼痛等神经系统而产生的敏感性反应。化学感觉是一个相对较新的术语,最早称为共同化学感觉,后来又称为三叉神经反应。化学感觉与嗅觉、味觉相互结合形成一种独特的食品香味,尽管其他感官输入(例如质地、色泽和温度等)也参与整个香味形成过程。本文对化学感觉的基本特征、它与嗅觉、味觉的相互作用及其转导机制进行了概括介绍。     

A pH-sensitive controlled dual-drug release from meso-macroporous silica/multilayer-polyelectrolytes coated SBA-15 composites

A novel dual-drug delivery system based on mesoporous-macroporous silica/polyelectrolytes-SBA-15 has been synthesized. The structure and composition of these materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and N₂ adsorption–desorption measurements. In this system, water-soluble metformin hydrochloride and fat-soluble ibuprofen were used as model drugs to study the controlled release behavior. The pH-controlled release of individual drugs was obtained by the primary release of metformin hydrochloride from polyelectrolytes-SBA-15 in acid condition and the predominant release of ibuprofen from MMC in alkaline environment. The results show that the polyelectrolytes-SBA-15/mesoporous-macroporous silica can be used as dual-drug release system and the individual drug can be controlled release with the change of pH value of the environment.
