Ultrasound-assisted development and characterization of novel polyphenol-loaded pullulan/trehalose composite films for fruit preservation

A novel food packaging film was developed by incorporating a tea polyphenols-loaded pullulan/trehalose (TP@Pul/Tre) into a composite film with ultrasound-assisted treatment of dual-frequency (20/35 kHz, 40 W/L) for 15 min to assess the physicochemical and mechanical properties of a composite film. The optimized ultrasound-assisted significantly increases elongation at break, tensile strength, and improves the composite film's UV/water/oxygen barrier properties. Structure analysis using attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction and thermal stability revealed that these improvements were achieved through ultrasound-enhanced H-bonds, more ordered molecular arrangements, and good intermolecular compatibility. Besides, the ultrasound-assisted TP@Pul/Tre film has proven to have good antibacterial performance against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, with approximately 100 % lethality at 4 h and 8 h, respectively. Moreover, the ultrasound-assisted TP@Pul/Tre film effectively delayed moisture loss, oxidative browning, decay, and deterioration in fresh-cut apples and pears, thereby extending their shelf life. Thus, ultrasound has proved to be an effective tool for improving the quality of food packaging films, with a wide range of applications.

Synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers using acrylamide‐β‐cyclodextrin as a cofunctional monomer for the specific capture of tea saponins from the defatted cake extract of Camellia oleifera

Molecularly imprinted polymers were synthesized using mixed tea saponins as a template and acrylamide‐β‐cyclodextrin as a cofunctional monomer for the specific binding and purification of tea saponins from the defatted cake extract of Camellia oleifera. The adsorption properties of the prepared polymers were systematically evaluated including adsorption kinetics, adsorption isotherms, and selective recognition characteristics. It showed that the adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo first‐order kinetic model (R² = 0.995) with an equilibrium time of 3 h, adsorption isotherm data fitted well with the Langmuir–Freundlich model (R² = 0.984) with an adsorption capacity of 14.23 mg/g. The relative selectivity coefficient (k´) in the presence of the analogues glycyrrhizic acid and glycyrrhetinic acid were 1.16 and 17.21, respectively. The performance of the molecularly imprinted polymers as solid‐phase extraction materials was investigated and the results indicated that using acrylamide‐β‐cyclodextrin as a cofunctional monomer improved both the adsorption capacity and active sites stability of the imprinted polymers. The solid‐phase extraction using the polymers as packing materials was subsequently applied for the separation of tea saponins in raw C. oleifera press extract, and targets were obtained with a purity reaching 89%.     

Solid‐phase purification and extraction for the determination of trace neonicotinoid pesticides in tea infusion

An analytical protocol that includes solid‐phase purification and extraction is successfully developed for the determination of trace neonicotinoid pesticides in tea infusion. The method consists of a purification on amino‐functionalized mesoporous silica SBA‐15 followed by a solid‐phase extraction based on graphene oxide before ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry analysis. Parameters that significantly affected the extraction of the neonicotinoids onto graphene oxide, such as the amount of adsorbent, extraction time, pH, elution solvent, etc. were optimized. The amino‐functionalized mesoporous silica SBA‐15 has been proved to be an efficient adsorbent for removal of polyphenols especially catechins from tea infusion. Graphene oxide exhibits a very rapid adsorption rate (within 10 min) and high adsorption capacities for neonicotinoids at low initial concentration (0.01–0.5 mg/L). The analysis method gave a good determination coefficient (r² > 0.99) for each pesticide and high recoveries in the range of 72.2–95.0%. Powder X‐ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and UV‐vis spectroscopy were utilized to identify the structure and morphology of graphene oxide. The adsorption driving force of neonicotinoids on graphene oxide mainly depends on π–π electron donor–acceptor interaction and electrostatic interaction.     

Tea and fluorosis

Tea trees (Camellia sinensis), abundant in fluoride, selectively absorb F from the soil and air in the surrounding, and accumulate mainly in the tea leaves in the form of Al and F complex. Long-term consumption of high fluoride tea could result in chronic fluoride intoxication. This review summarized those data of the fluoride content in various tea commodities, and estimated the risk of fluorosis caused by high fluoride tea commodities. We also introduced fluorosis caused by tea from case reports, epidemiology observations and animal models. Fluorosis was easily misdiagnosed and over-looked and people made little acquaintance in the high fluoride in some tea commodities. So it is the time to pay more attentions on the over-looked safety problem of tea and tea products and some measures should be taken to the fluorosis caused by tea. Large-scale epidemiological investigations and further studies on tea-type fluorosis are in need for those tea-drinking areas. In addition, it is urgent that governmental and international agencies adopt safe standards of fluoride content in tea commodities.     

Influence of the surfactant bromide of cetyltrimetyl ammonium in the determination of chlorogenic acid in instant coffee and mate tea samples

In this study, two quantitative differential-pulse polarography (DPP) and square-wave voltammetry (SWV) methods were developed to determine total chlorogenic acid (CGA). Studies on this compound involve its reduction at a hanging mercury drop electrode in micellar media—a simple, fast, reliable, and sensitive method. The use of surfactant cationic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was pivotal to the development of these methods, allowing for satisfactory changes in CGA reduction. The supporting electrolyte which provided the best-defined CGA determination was 0.04-mol L⁻¹ phosphate buffer at pH 6.0 in the presence of CTAB. Based on this use and under optimized conditions, the two new DPP and SWV methods for CGA analysis had detection limits of 2.36 × 10⁻⁷ and 1.34 × 10⁻⁹ mol L⁻¹, respectively, for a pure standard. Analysis of the standard in the presence of treated instant coffee and mate tea samples allowed for good average recovery rates, ranging from 97.06% to 105.90%.
