Direct and simultaneous determination of representative byproducts in a lignocellulosic hydrolysate of corn stover via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with a Deans switch

Pretreatment is one of the most important steps in producing fuel ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass. Simple, fast and accurate quantification of byproducts in lignocellulosic hydrolysates is critical to optimize the pretreatment procedures, but still a challenge. In this paper, a new GC-MS (SIM) method based on a Deans switch has been developed for the determination of byproducts in a corn stover hydrolysate. The Deans switch was incorporated into a hardware system that facilitated the direct aqueous injection (DAI) on GC-MS system. Simultaneous chromatographic separation and quantification of 18 byproducts including four aliphatic acids, five furan derivatives, four phenolic compounds and five others were achieved within 45 min. The detection limits of the presented method for various byproducts were in the range of 0.007-0.832 mg/L. The within-day and between-day precisions of the method were less than 6.0% (RSD, n=6). The accuracy of the method was confirmed with recoveries of 86-128%. A lignocellulosic hydrolysate sample of corn stover was successfully analyzed using this method, with aliphatic acids and furan derivatives accounting for 89.15% of the selected total byproducts.     

Effects of ultrasonic treatment on the structural and functional properties of cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica) seed protein

With the steady increase in the consumption of ultra-processed foods, there is growing interest in sustainable diets that include more plant protein. However, little information is available regarding the structural and functional properties of cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica) seed protein (CSP), a by-product of the cactus seed food-processing chain. This study aimed to explore the composition and nutritional value of CSP and reveal the effects of ultrasound treatment on protein quality. Protein chemical structure analysis showed that an appropriate intensity of ultrasound treatment (450 W) could significantly increase protein solubility (96.46 ± 2.07%) and surface hydrophobicity (13.76 ± 0.85 μg), decrease the content of T-SH (50.25 ± 0.79 μmol/g) and free-SH (8.60 ± 0.30 μmol/g), and enhance emulsification characteristics. Circular dichroism analysis further confirmed that the ultrasonic treatment increased the α-helix and random coil content. Amino acid analysis also suggested that ultrasound treatment (450 W) increased the hydrophobic amino acid content. To evaluate the impact of changes in the chemical structure, its digestion behavior was studied. The results showed that ultrasound treatment increased the release rate of free amino acids. Furthermore, nutritional analysis showed that the digestive products of CSP by ultrasound treatment can significantly enhance the intestinal permeability, increase the expression of ZO-1, Occludin and Claudin-1, thus repairing LPS induced intestinal barrier disfunction. Hence, CSP is a functional protein with high value, and ultrasound treatment is recommended. These findings provide new insights into the comprehensive utilization of cactus fruits.
