In this study, the effect of the γ-valerolactone (GVL)/H2O pretreatment system on bamboo (Neosinocalamus affinis) for enzymatic hydrolysis and ethanol fermentation was investigated. The performance characterization of the pretreated bamboo substrates, including the chemical composition, the structural characteristics, and the ability to produce bioethanol, were evaluated. The recovered substrates were enzymatically hydrolyzed for 48 h and then fermented to bioethanol. For the cellulose in the raw bamboo material, the highest cellulose-to-glucose conversion yield (CGCY) was achieved at 140 °C for 2 h with GVL : H2O = 8 : 2, which was 73.39%, and the cellulose-to-ethanol conversion yield (CECY) was 67.00%. This indicated that 183.5 kg of bioethanol could be produced per ton of bamboo, which was 9.71-folds higher than that directly converted from the untreated raw bamboo powder. Under these conditions, 50.60% of the active lignin can be recovered and be used as a wood-derived feedstock for further high-valued utilization. Meanwhile, the maximum concentration of fermentation inhibitors formed after pretreatment was about 140.9 mmol L−1, and had weak inhibition to the subsequent reaction. It has been shown that the cellulose could be effectively separated from bamboo and converted into bioethanol through the GVL/H2O pretreatment system.

BACKGROUND This study explores enzymatic hydrolysis as a method of modifying soybean meal (SM). It can reduce the particle size, improve flavor, and convert macromolecules into absorbable nutrients. The purpose is to provide technical information regarding the use of SM. Papain alone, and a combination of papain and acid protease, and a mixture of papain, acid protease, and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum were employed for the enzymatic hydrolysis of SM. RESULTS Sensory evaluation and nutritional and flavor analyses were performed with yogurt produced after SM enzymatic hydrolysis. The enzymatic hydrolysis improved yogurt quality significantly in comparison with non-enzymatically hydrolyzed soybean meal yogurt (SMY) by accelerating the decrease in pH and shortening the duration of fermentation. Enzymatic hydrolysis also reduced beany flavors and bitterness and enhanced the aromatic compound, flavor-related amino acid, and organic acid content, rendering the yogurt more appealing to consumers. Microstructural analysis revealed favorable characteristics that textural and rheological properties of the yogurt produced after enzymatically hydrolyzed SM were improved. CONCLUSION In this study, the biotechnological approach was used to demonstrate the efficacy of enzymatic hydrolysis in improving the quality and value of SM, promoting the efficient application of SM in the food industry. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

The efficient fractionation and recovery of monosaccharides (xylose and glucose) from lignocellulosic biomass facilitates subsequent sugar-based derivative production. This study introduces a one-pot γ -valerolactone/ CuCl 2 biphasic pretreatment system (100-mmol·L -1 CuCl 2 , 180 °C, 60 min) capable of achieving removal rates of 92.25% and 90.64% for xylan and lignin, respectively, while retaining 83.88% of cellulose. Compared to other metal chlorides (NaCl, LiCl, FeCl 3 , and AlCl 3 ), the γ -valerolactone/CuCl 2 system recovered 121.2 mg·(g eucalyptus) -1 of xylose and 55.96 mg·(g eucalyptus) -1 of glucose during the pretreatment stage and 339.2 mg·(g eucalyptus) -1 of glucose during the enzymatic hydrolysis stage (90.78% of glucose yield), achieving a total monosaccharide recovery of 86.31%. In addition, the recovery of γ -valerolactone was 79.33%, exhibiting minimal changes relative to the pretreatment performance. The method proposed in this study allows a high total monosaccharides recovery and a circular economy-oriented pretreatment approach, offering a viable pathway for biorefinery.

Wheat straws (WS) were pretreated by a two-step pretreatment for enhanced enzymatic hydrolysis. The raw wheat straw (RWS) was firstly soaked in microwave-assisted NaOH solution at the presence of a mixed solution of H 2 O 2 and hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (HTAC), and the residue was put into methyl orange (MO) solution to obtain the final substrate for enzymatic hydrolysis. It was interesting to find that the WS after the first step of the pretreatment could effectively remove MO in the second step of the pretreatment with the highest removal efficiency of 98.86% at the MO concentration of 25 mg/L and at the adsorbent-adsorbate ratio of 0.8%. Meanwhile, the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency of the WS that was pretreated by the two steps was higher than that of the RWS as well as the first-step-pretreated WS. Enzymatic hydrolysis experiment showed that the glucose concentration after 48-h hydrolysis was 4.85 g/L at the solid loading of 5%, compared with the RWS of 0.90 g/L and the first-step-pretreated WS of 4.33 g/L. This suggested that the two-step pretreatment method could not only make WS as a good adsorbent but also a more biodegradable lignocellulosic material. Characterization analysis showed that the specific surface area and the cellulose content of the WS were both increased after the two-step pretreatment, indicating that the pretreatment method was significant to properly utilizing WS as biosorbent and biofuel. Besides, a possible mechanism for the effect of the pretreatment on the WS was proposed.

Abstract Lignin deposits formed on the surface of pretreated lignocellulosic substrates during acidic pretreatments can non-productively adsorb costly enzymes and thereby influence the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency of cellulose. In this article, peanut protein (PP), a biocompatible non-catalytic protein, was separated from defatted peanut flour (DPF) as a lignin blocking additive to overcome this adverse effect. With the addition of 2.5 g/L PP in enzymatic hydrolysis medium, the glucose yield of the bamboo substrate pretreated by phenylsulfonic acid (PSA) significantly increased from 38 to 94% at a low cellulase loading of 5 FPU/g glucan while achieving a similar glucose yield required a cellulase loading of 17.5 FPU/g glucan without PP addition. Similar promotion effects were also observed on the n-pentanol-pretreated bamboo and PSA-pretreated eucalyptus substrates. The promoting effect of PP on enzymatic hydrolysis was ascribed to blocking lignin deposits via hydrophobic and/or hydrogen-bonding interactions, which significantly reduced the non-productive adsorption of cellulase onto PSA lignin. Meanwhile, PP extraction also facilitated the utilization of residual DPF as the adhesive for producing plywood as compared to that without protein pre-extraction. This scheme provides a sustainable and viable way to improve the value of woody and agriculture biomass. Peanut protein, a biocompatible non-catalytic protein, can block lignin, improve enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency and thereby facilitate the economics of biorefinery. Graphical abstract

Sea urchin gonads have been demonstrated to contain major yolk protein (MYP), which can be hydrolyzed by enzymes to release biologically active peptides. The in silico analysis of the MYP sequence in the BIOPEP database showed the presence of fragments with antioxidant activity. The sequence was hydrolyzed by 21 kinds of proteases and 23 antioxidant peptides were obtained. Eight peptides, including Leu-Trp (LW), Arg-Trp (RW), Ala-Trp (AW), Thr-Trp (TW), Ala-Asp-Phe (ADF), Leu-Trp-Lys (LWK), Ser-Asp-Phe (SDF) and Leu-Tyr (LY), were screened and a score over 0.5 was obtained using PeptideRanker. The peptides LW, TW and LWK showed a stronger antioxidant capacity with IC50 values of 8.85, 9.59 and 9.62 mmol L−1, respectively, compared to that of glutathione (10.81 mmol L−1). Furthermore, AW, LW and LY showed Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) values of 3.07, 1.87 and 1.52 mmol TE per mmol peptide, respectively. These results suggest that the MYP from sea urchin (S. nudus) gonads is a good source of antioxidant peptides with abundant tryptophan.

In this study, four deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were used as cheaper and “greener” alternatives to ionic liquids (ILs) to create novel microemulsions . Compared with 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium acetate ([Emim]Ac), the DESs of lactic acid:glucose:water and lactic acid:fructose:water (molar ratio = 5:1:3) comprising acid hydrogen-bond donor (p K a = 3.86) showed stronger capability to form the microemulsions with Tween 20 , methanol and cyclohexane . After the pretreatment of rice straw at 70 °C for 12 h by using the microemulsions (mass ratio of DES, Tween 20/methanol, cyclohexane = 0.1:0.8:0.1), 54.3% of lignin was removed, and the crystalline structure was significantly disrupted. When the content of DES (lactic acid:glucose:water) increased to 50%, the sugar yield of the residues was increased to 88.1%, which was 3 times than that of untreated one. Moreover, the enzymatic hydrolysis of the residues is linearly and positively correlated with the delignification abilities of the DES microemulsion.

BACKGROUND Zinc is known to play an essential role in the biological activities in the human body. In this study, a zinc-chelating peptide (ZCP) produced by Alcalase-assisted hydrolysis of the body wall of sea cucumber was isolated and identified. The ZCP was purified stepwise by ultrafiltration, anion-exchange chromatography, and gel filtration chromatography, in conjunction with ultraviolet–visual (UV–visual) spectrophotometry, which was used to analyze each purified fraction. RESULTS Analysis of the purified ZCP revealed that its zinc-chelating ability was 33.31%. Analysis of isothermal titration calorimetry suggested that the binding of ZCP and zinc (N ≈ 2) was endothermic, with weak binding affinity. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectra (FTIR) indicated that carboxylic and amide groups in ZCP were the primary binding sites of Zn. Sequencing the result by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole/time of flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) showed that a representative ZCP had the sequence WLTPTYPE with a molecular weight of 1005.5 Da. CONCLUSION These results provide a promising foundation for the production of zinc supplements from sea-cucumber-derived ZCPs. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry

In this study, we have established a green and efficient preparation method of quercetin. Rutin was first extracted from Sophora japonica using natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs), then hydrolyzed into quercetin by rutin degrading enzyme (RDE) obtained from germinated tartary buckwheat in situ. Rutin solubility tests showed that most of the 11 NADESs increased the solubility of rutin by 67-3116 times compared to water. Thus, NADESs could be prior candidate to extract rutin. Extraction efficiency of rutin varied with different NADESs, and a maximum of 291.57 mg g −1 was achieved in NADES ChGly, which was prepared by mixing choline chloride and glycerol at a molar ratio of 1:1. After that hydrolysis was performed directly in extraction system by adding RDE with degradation rate of up to 8.36 mg min -1 ·L -1 . Our findings suggest that preparation of quercetin using NADESs was simple and feasible to operate, environmentally friendly, efficient, and inspired the preparation method of bioactive components from a new perspective.

In this work, we report that FeCl 3 , a benign Lewis acid, could be used as a catalyst in the γ-valerolactone (GVL)/H 2 O solvent system to facilitate efficient pretreatment of Chinese silvergrass. The results showed that approximately 87.8% of xylan and 75.8% of lignin were removed by 80% GVL under 170 °C using 50 mM FeCl 3 as a catalyst. The solubilized carbohydrate fractions in the pretreatment liquor were mainly composed of monosaccharides (glucose and xylose) rather than oligosaccharides (glucose oligomers and xylose oligomers) and inhibitors (furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, formic acid and acetic acid). Moreover, FeCl 3 decreased the transesterification of GVL with hydroxyl groups on the cellulose surface and resulted in more easily degraded cellulose. Approximately 96.5% of cellulose and 92.2% of xylan in the pretreated Chinese silvergrass were converted to fermentable monosaccharides by 10 FPU/g cellulases . This study indicated that FeCl 3 -catalyzed GVL solvent could efficiently deconstruct biomass and increase the cellulose digestibility, which provided a novel, GVL-based pretreatment system for processing biomass.

Two porous bioadsorbents were successfully prepared from the partial enzymatic hydrolysis of bamboo and subsequent chemical modification with succinic anhydride. We investigated the abilities of the partially enzymatically hydrolyzed bamboo (PEB) and the porous succinylated bamboo (PSB) to adsorb Cd(II) from a solution containing sodium chloride and an amino acid. The partial enzymatic hydrolysis created many pores within the raw bamboo, and both the porous structure and the post-succinylation carboxyl group content were important for high adsorption capacity. The presence of sodium chloride and the amino acid markedly decreased the adsorption capacities of the bioadsorbents. The experimental data could be described perfectly with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model and pseudo second-order kinetics model. Even in solutions containing sodium chloride and arginine, the maximum Cd(II) adsorption capacities at 303 K were 38.18 and 120.34 mg g−1 for PEB and PSB, respectively.

Background and Aims. The complex structure of the lignocelluloses is the main obstacle in the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into valuable products. Ionic liquids provide the opportunities for their efficient pretreatment for biomass. Therefore, in this work, pretreatment of corn stalk was carried out in ultrasonic-assisted ionic liquid including 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [BMIM]Cl, 1-H-3-methylimidazolium chloride [HMIM]Cl, and 1-(1-propylsulfonic)-3-imidazolium chloride [HSO3-pMIM]Cl at 70°C for 2 h. We compared the pretreatments by ionic liquid with and without the addition of deionized water. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to analyze the chemical characteristics of regenerated cellulose-rich materials. Results. [HMIM]Cl and [HSO3-pMIM]Cl were effective in lignin extraction to obtain cellulose-rich materials. FTIR analysis and SEM analysis indicated the effective lignin removal and the reduced crystallinity of cellulose-rich materials. Enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose-rich materials was performed efficiently. High yields of reducing sugar and glucose were obtained when the corn stalk was pretreated by [HMIM]Cl and [HSO3-pMIM]Cl. Conclusions. Ionic liquids provided the ideal environment for lignin extraction and enzymatic hydrolysis of corn stalk and [HMIM]Cl and [HSO3-pMIM]Cl proved the most efficient ionic liquids. This simple and environmentally acceptable method has a great potential for the preparation of bioethanol for industrial production.
