Saccharin sodium and rebaudioside A are widely used as non-caloric sweeteners in our daily life; however, the impacts and regulatory mechanisms of such sweeteners on reproduction remain unclear. In the present study, we used rats as animal models to evaluate the effects of daily exposure to saccharin sodium and rebaudioside A on ovarian biologic functions. Weanling rats were distributed into five experimental groups receiving normal water, 1.5 or 7.5 mM saccharin sodium solution, or 0.5 or 2.5 mM rebaudioside A solution for 48 days of exposure. The results showed an increased percentage of abnormal estrous cycles, augmented number of ovarian cysts, elevated serum progesterone levels, and increased expression of steroidogenesis-related factors in saccharin sodium-treated groups. Conversely, rebaudioside A-treated groups showed decreased serum progesterone levels. Our findings suggest that saccharin sodium exerts adverse biologic effects on ovaries, and rebaudioside A is a potential steroidogenic disruptor in female rats.

In this work, a saccharin sodium imprinted nanoparticles composite material has been successfully synthesized in aqueous solution. This molecular imprinted material has promising practical utility in the detection of saccharin sodium. First, we synthesized SiO 2 nanoparticles, followed by the modification of functional amino group. Then we used functionalized SiO 2 @NH 2 as the cores, saccharin sodium as the template, acrylic acid (AA) as the functional monomer and ammonium persulphate (APS) as the initiator. Molecularly imprinted nanoparticles (MIPs) were synthesized by surface-imprinted polymerization under airtight tubes at 60 °C for 12 h. MIPs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The binding experiments were shown to have relatively high adsorption capacity (8.965 mg g −1 ) and selective recognition ability over structurally related compounds. Therefore, MIPs provide a sensitive and selective approach and offer the potential to become a new key for the detection of saccharin sodium.

Preservatives and sweeteners are always added in the food production process, which can extend the life and flavor of food. Benzoic acid and saccharin sodium are commonly used as preservatives and sweeteners respectively. Phenyllactic acid as a natural preservative, mainly produced by phenylalanine fermentation, may exist in fermented food. The objective of the current study is to develop a reverse-phase HPLC-UV method for simultaneous determination of benzoic acid, sorbic acid, phenyllactic, phenylalanine, and saccharin sodium in vinegar. They were separated on Sapphiresil TM (C 18 ) column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) with a mobile phase consisting of methyl alcohol:ammonium acetate buffer (pH 6.44; 0.02 M) (20:80, v/v) ran in isocratic mode at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. Complete baseline separation of five analytes was achieved in < 12 min, the linear range was 0.25–50 μg/mL with a correlation coefficient R 2 value > 0.9975, the method was validated with recoveries in the 96.93 to 118.42% range, and RSD was 0.39–6.21%. The detection limits of phenylalanine, benzoic acid, saccharin sodium, sorbic acid, and phenyllactic acid were 0.25, 0.01, 0.01, 0.025, and 0.05 mg/L. This method could be used for determining of benzoic acid, sorbic acid, phenyllactic acid, phenylalanine, and saccharin sodium in vinegar.

Due to the strong background interferences in the low-mass region and poor reproducibility of conventional organic matrices, it is of great importance to develop a novel matrix for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze small molecules. In this work, water-soluble fullerenol C 60 (OH) 24–26 was selected as a MALDI matrix for the analysis of low-molecular-weight compounds in consideration of optical absorption property, water solubility and stability. Compared with the traditional matrices, fullerenol demonstrated lower background interference and stronger peak intensity. In addition, the hydrophilic fullerenol could avoid the heterogeneous crystallization in sample preparation, increase the reproducibility and sensitivity of MALDI-MS, and ameliorate quantitative analysis of small molecules. With saccharin as model analyte, quantitative analysis was carried out using fullerenol as matrix. The results demonstrated satisfying reproducibility and good tolerance to salt. The limit-of-detection of the quantitative analysis was as low as 4 pmol, and the linear range is 1–100 μg mL −1 with R 2 greater than 0.99. The analytical results also showed excellent precision and accuracy, low matrix effect and good recovery rate. Fullerenol as a potential matrix was further validated in the quantification of saccharin sodium in different real food samples, such as nuts and drinks. This work not only confirms the potential of fullerenol for the quantitative analysis in food field, but also provides a new technique for rapid analysis of small molecules.
