A new AAPH-Incubating HPLC-DAD-HR MS/MS method was developed for the rapid and high-throughput screening of antioxidants directly in natural products and applied to Gardenia jasminoides fruit. This method was assumed that the peak areas of compounds with potential antioxidant activity in HPLC chromatograms would be significantly reduced or disappeared after incubating with the AAPH which can release ROO at physiological conditions (37 °C, pH 7.4). Additionally, the activity of antioxidants can be evaluated by comparing the peak reduction rates and the screened components can be further identified by HRMS/MS. Then, 17 potential natural antioxidants from the crude extract of GJF was screened. Among them, three major components including crocin I, crocin II and crocetin showed excellent ROO scavenging activity, which were further validated by the ORAC assay. In conclusion, our study provided a simple and effective strategy to rapidly screen antioxidants in natural products.

Gardenia fruit oil (GFO) is a new emerging edible woody oil with few investigations of its’ refinement process. In this study, different degumming, deacidification and bleaching technologies were introduced for realizing moderate refining of the GFO based on the preservation of bioactive micronutrients. Firstly, a simple multi-stage solid phase extraction (SPE) combined with a lab- affordable HPLC-UV instrument was developed for determinations of several vital biological constituents, such as crocetin, geniposide, polyphenols, phytosterols and squalene in the GFO. Satisfactory limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), recovery, intra-day and inter-day precision were obtained. Subsequently, changes of those phytochemicals during three types of degumming, followed by three kinds of deacidification and then three ways of bleaching were investigated, offering insightful suggestions for achieving moderate refining of the GFO. Finally, the refined GFO might be suggested as a potential functional edible oil with valuable micronutrients. To our knowledge, this is the first study investigating moderate refinement techniques for GFO, as well as developing novel methods for phytonutrients analysis in the GFO.

Crocus sativus L. is a both medicinal and food bulbous flower whose qualities are geographically characterized. However, identification involving different places of origin of such substances is currently limited to single-omics mediated content analysis. Integrated metabolomics and proteomics, 840 saffron samples from six countries (Spain, Greece, Iran, China, Japan, and India) were analyzed using the QuEChERS extraction method. A total of 77 differential metabolites and 14 differential proteins were identified. The limits of detection of the method were 1.33 to 8.33 μg kg −1 , and the recoveries were 85.56% to 105.18%. Using homology modeling and molecular docking, the Gln84, Lys195, Val182 and Pro184 sites of Crocetin glucosyltransferase 2 were found to be the targets of crocetin binding. By multivariate statistical analysis (PCA and PLS-DA), different saffron samples were clearly distinguished. The results provided the basis for the selection and identification of high quality saffron from different producing areas.

In this work, a robust method for the separation of gardenia yellow and geniposide from gardenia fruit was developed based on a molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction (MISPE) procedure. First, hydrophilic molecularly imprinted microspheres (HMIMs) were prepared using gardenia yellow as the template via reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) precipitation polymerization. The resultant HMIMs demonstrated the multiresponsiveness to pH, temperature, and magnetism, achieving controllable uptake and release of gardenia yellow and easy recovery by external magnets. Meanwhile, the HMIMs possessed high adsorption capacity, fast binding kinetics, specific recognition, and reusability. Finally, a MISPE approach using HMIMs as adsorbent was developed for extraction of gardenia yellow and purification of geniposide after optimization of the adsorption and elution conditions. Thus, efficient separation of gardenia yellow and geniposide with relative purities of 99.77 ± 0.05% (94.04 ± 0.10% recovered) and 94.50 ± 0.62% (95.40 ± 0.86% recovered), respectively, was achieved.
