In this study, theCutaneotrichosporon dermatisstrain M503 was isolated and could efficiently degrade tetracycline, doxycycline, and chlorotetracyline. The characteristics of tetracycline degradation were investigated under a broad range of cultural conditions. Response surface methodology (RSM) predicted that the highest degradation rate of tetracycline could be obtained under the following conditions: 39.69 °C, pH of 8.79, and inoculum dose of 4.0% (v/v, ~3.5 × 106cells/mL in the medium). In accordance with the five identified degradation products of tetracycline, two putative degradation pathways, which included the shedding of methyl and amino groups, were proposed. Moreover, the well diffusion method showed that the strain of M503 decreases the antibacterial potency of tetracycline, doxycycline, and chlorotetracycline. These findings proposed a putative mechanism of tetracycline degradation by a fungus strain and contributed to the estimation of the fate of tetracycline in the aquatic environment.Keywords:tetracycline;biodegradation;Cutaneotrichosporon dermatis;response surface methodology (RSM);degradation products;antibacterial potency

Polygonatum sibiricumPolysaccharide (PsP) with antioxidant function is the main active component ofPolygonatum sibiricum(P.sibiricum). The currently poor extraction yield and extraction methods of PsP cannot meet the application of that in food industrial production. In this research, an ultrasound-assisted extraction-deep eutectic solvents (UAE-DESs) method, which has never been used in the PsP industry, was first used to extract PsP. The extraction conditions were optimized by the response surface method (RSM). Both the extraction yield and antioxidant function were simultaneously considered during the optimization process. The indicators of PsP’s level and antioxidant activity in vitro were used to present the extraction yield of the UAE-DESs method, the purity, and the antioxidant effect of PsP. Under the optimal conditions, which included a liquid–solid ratio of 26:1 (mL:g), extraction temperature of 80 °C, ultrasonic time of 51 min, and ultrasonic power of 82 W, the PsP extraction yield could reach (43.61 ± 0.09)%, which was obviously higher than single DESs (33.81%) and UAE (5.83%), respectively, and the PsP appeared favorably antioxidant function. This research proposed an efficient extraction method for PsP, filled the basic research gap, and further improved the development of PsP as a dietary supplement with antioxidant function in the food industry.Keywords:Polygonatum sibiricumPolysaccharide (PsP);ultrasound-assisted extraction-deep eutectic solvents (UAE-DESS);antioxidant function;response surface method (RSM)

Zanthoxylum alkylamides, as a numbing substance in Zanthoxylum bungeanum has many physiological effects. However, the numbing taste and unstable properties limited its application. This study aimed to optimize the preparation process of Zanthoxylum alkylamides liposomes by response surface methodology (RSM) and to investigate the in vitro absorption characteristics of the liposomes through the Caco-2 cell monolayer model. The process parameters of liposomes were as follows: Zanthoxylum alkylamides was 15 mg, phospholipid–feedstock ratio was 6.14, phospholipid–cholesterol ratio was 8.51, sodium cholate was 33.80 mg, isopropyl myristate was 29.49 mg, and the theoretical encapsulation efficiency of the prepared liposomes could reach 90.23%. Further, the particle size of the liposomes was 155.47 ± 3.16 nm, and the ζ-potential was −34.11 ± 4.34 mV. Meanwhile, the liposomes could be preserved for 14 days under the condition that the content of Zanthoxylum alkylamides was less than 2 mg/mL and the preservation temperature was lower than 25 °C. Moreover, the uptake characteristics of the Zanthoxylum alkylamides liposomes in the Caco-2 cell monolayer model were also investigated. The results showed that the Zanthoxylum alkylamides liposomes could be taken up and absorbed by Caco-2 cells. Also, the Zanthoxylum alkylamides liposomes had a better uptake performance than the unembedded Zanthoxylum alkylamides and conformed to the passive uptake.

In this study, the magnetic core-shell nanomaterial Fe 3 O 4 /SiO 2 /N-TiO 2 /Ag/AgCl (FSNT/Ag/AgCl) that efficiently degraded methyl orange (MO) was produced. The dosages of tetrabutyl titanate (TBOT), urea and AgNO 3 were optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). Scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis (XPS), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectrum (UV–vis DRS) were used to characterize the nanomaterial. The particle size of FSNT/Ag/AgCl was 91.98 nm, and it presented a core-shell structure with Fe 3 O 4 as the core, SiO 2 and N-TiO 2 wrapped in Fe 3 O 4 , and Ag/AgCl deposited on the outermost layer. Performance and mechanism research experiments showed that under the optimized conditions of 1 g/L FSNT/Ag/AgCl, pH = 9, temperature of 35℃ and initial MO concentration of 10 mg/L, about 90 % of MO was degraded in 20 min. The mineralization rate was 35.2 % within 120 min. Holes (h + ) and superoxide anions (·O 2 − ) were the main active substances in the whole photocatalytic degradation. FSNT/Ag/AgCl could be recovered by magnet. After 5 repeated experiments, the degradation rate of MO within 100 min still reached 88.5 %. This work provides a recyclable core-shell nanomaterial for faster degradation of dye wastewater.

Lipase-catalyzed synthesis of mono- and diesters of 3-O-β-D-galactopyranosyl-sn- glycerol (β-GG) with caproic acid was performed in acetone. The simultaneous production of 1(6’)-monoesters and 1,6’-diesters of β-GG was achieved in this reaction. In order to improve the yield of β-GG esters, four process parameters, enzyme concentration (15 ∼ 25 mg/mL), and substrate molar ratio (caproic acid: β-GG= 1.60 ∼ 2.00 mmol: 0.10 mmol), reaction temperature (40 ∼ 60 °C), and reaction time (8 ∼ 12 h), were optimized via response surface methodology (RSM) employing a three-level-four-variable central composite design. Results showed that enzyme concentration had the most significant (p < 0.0001) effect on the synthesis of β-GG esters. The optimal reaction conditions in acetone were given as follows: Novozyme435 concentration 18.65 mg/mL, molar rate of caproic acid to β-GG 19.46:1, reaction temperature 48 °C, and reaction time 9.83 h. The yield of β-GG esters reached 88.08% under above optimized conditions, which was very close to the predicted value 87.95%. The molar ratio of monoester to diesters was 0.39:0.61. β-GG esters with other fatty acyl chains were synthesized based on the optimized conditions. In vitro antitumor activity indicated that the antitumor activity of β-GG esters was dependent on the nature of fatty acids, such as the length of acyl chain, the degree of saturation, as well as the number of acyl chain.

Background As potent antioxidants, anthocyanins can protect the body from free radicals. However, the traditional solvent extraction method has the disadvantages of requiring a high extraction temperature and long extraction time, so it is necessary to develop an efficient extraction method for anthocyanins. Results In this study, the technique of natural deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was applied to extract anthocyanins from purple perilla leaves with the aid of microwave-ultrasonic assisted extraction (MUAE). The response surface methodology (RSM), based on the Box–Behnken design (BBD), predicted the maximum extraction yield of anthocyanins to be 619.62 mg (100 g) −1 under the following conditions: x 1 (ultrasonic extraction power) = 357.25 W, x 2 (time) = 25.62 min, and x 3 (temperature) = 57.80 °C. The biological activity of the extract obtained was evaluated by examining its radical-scavenging effect on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, hydroxyl radical, and superoxide anion radicals. Its bacteriostatic impact was investigated on four typical bacteria: Shewanella putrefaciens ( S. putrefaciens ), Pseudomonas fluorescens ( P. fluorescens ), Escherichia coli ( E. coli ), and Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ). Conclusion The integrated extraction method of DESs with MUAE was efficient, energy-saving, green, and sustainable. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

The natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) was used as the extraction solvent to extract the four ingredients from Chuanxiong-Honghua. NADES-7 composed of L-proline and lactic acid (1:2) has a better extraction effect compared with traditional solvents. The extraction process was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) and ant colony algorithm-enabled backpropagation neural network (ACO-BPNN), which were compared with each other. ACO-BPNN has a higher R 2 and predictive value than RSM. The optimal process parameters predicted by the ACO-BPNN were determined to be as follows: solvent-to-material ratio, 8 mL/g; extraction time, 67 min; water concentration, 48%; and extraction temperature, 50 °C. The best predicted comprehensive evaluation value was 4.2634, and the mean value obtained from the experiment was 3.8678. Compared with traditional solvents, the antioxidant activity of NADES-7 extract was better, and the mean value of DPPH, FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant power), and ABTS assays were 0.1555, 0.1132, and 0.0894 mmol Trolox/g dry weight, respectively. Experimental results show that ACO-BPNN can better optimize the extraction process of many different polar compounds in plant combinations.

Quercetin was extracted from Portulaca oleracea L. through biphasic acid hydrolysis to investigate its potential as a suppressor of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) and its hypoglycemic effect in type 2 diabetic mice. The extraction procedure was optimized utilizing the response surface method (RSM) in a single-factor experimental setting. An extraction efficiency of 0.675% was achieved using the following optimized parameters: 0.064 mol/L vitriol, 1 : 109.155 solid-liquid ratio, and 21.408 min ultrasonication. Overall, findings indicate the effectiveness of quercetin extraction. A mouse model for type 2 diabetes was established to receive oral treatment with various quercetin concentrations for 8 weeks. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) and the DPP-IV activity in the serum were significantly reduced. The weight and insulin levels of the mice in the quercetin group were raised compared to those in the model group ( < 0.01). Quercetin dose-dependently inhibited postprandial blood glucose excursions, as demonstrated by the oral glucose tolerance test. These results confirmed that quercetin has hypoglycemic effects and considerably improves insulin sensitivity via DPP-IV targeting.

The objective of this study was to explore the potential of Antarctic krill-derived peptides as α-glucosidase inhibitors for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The enzymolysis conditions of α-glucosidase inhibitory peptides were optimized by response surface methodology (RSM), a statistical method that efficiently determines optimal conditions with a limited number of experiments. Gel chromatography and LC-MS/MS techniques were utilized to determine the molecular weight (M w ) distribution and sequences of the hydrolysates. The identification and analysis of the mechanism behind α-glucosidase inhibitory peptides were conducted through conventional and computer-assisted techniques. The binding affinities between peptides and α-glucosidase were further validated using BLI (biolayer interferometry) assay. The results revealed that hydrolysates generated by neutrase exhibited the highest α-glucosidase inhibition rate. Optimal conditions for hydrolysis were determined to be an enzyme concentration of 6 × 10 3 U/g, hydrolysis time of 5.4 h, and hydrolysis temperature of 45 °C. Four peptides (LPFQR, PSFD, PSFDF, VPFPR) with strong binding affinities to the active site of α-glucosidase, primarily through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. This study highlights the prospective utility of Antarctic krill-derived peptides in curtailing α-glucosidase activity, offering a theoretical foundation for the development of novel α-glucosidase inhibitors and related functional foods to enhance diabetes management.
