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.

In this study, the ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) of flavonoid from Paeonia lactiflora seed peel was optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). Single-factor experiments and a three-factor three-level Box-Behnken design (BBD) were performed to explore the effects of the following parameters on flavonoid extraction: ethanol concentration (), liquid-solid ratio (), and ultrasonic time (). The results showed that the optimal flavonoid yield (10.9045 mg RE/g) was as follows: ethanol concentration 62.93%, ultrasonic time 64.56 min, and liquid-solid ratio 24.86 mL/g. The optimized extract of P. lactiflora seed shell was further analyzed by UPLC-ESI-MS/MS, and 20 main flavonoids were identified and quantified, among which protocatechuic acid, vanillic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, and 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde had the highest content. Furthermore, the results of the antioxidant test showed that the P. lactiflora seed peel extract obtained under optimized UAE conditions exhibited good antioxidant activity. The experimental results showed that ultrasound-assisted extraction was a fast, efficient, and simple method for extracting active ingredients from P. lactiflora seed peel, thereby making this byproduct a promising source of compounds in food and healthcare sectors.

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.

Single degradation systems based on dielectric barrier discharge plasma (DBDP) or persulfate (PS) oxidation cannot achieve the desired goals (high degradation efficiency, high mineralization rate, and low product toxicity) of degrading atrazine (ATZ) in river sediment. In this study, DBDP was combined with a PS oxidation system (DBDP/PS synergistic system) to degrade ATZ in river sediment. A Box–Behnken design (BBD) including five factors (discharge voltage, air flow, initial concentration, oxidizer dose, and activator dose) and three levels (− 1, 0, and 1) was established to test a mathematical model by response surface methodology (RSM). The results confirmed that the degradation efficiency of ATZ in river sediment was 96.5% in the DBDP/PS synergistic system after 10 min of degradation. The experimental total organic carbon (TOC) removal efficiency results indicated that 85.3% of ATZ is mineralized into CO 2 , H 2 O, and NH 4 + , which effectively reduces the possible biological toxicity of the intermediate products. Active species (sulfate (SO 4 • − ), hydroxy (•OH), and superoxide (•O 2 − ) radicals) were found to exert positive effects in the DBDP/PS synergistic system and illustrated the degradation mechanism of ATZ. The ATZ degradation pathway, composed of 7 main intermediates, was clarified by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS). This study indicates that the DBDP/PS synergistic system is a highly efficient, environmentally friendly, novel method for the remediation of river sediment containing ATZ pollution.

Ginkgo seeds are rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds, but they cause poisoning after excessive consumption, thus limiting their application. In this work, enzymatic degradation technology was employed to remove ginkgotoxins presented in ginkgo seeds, including 4’-O-methylpyridoxine (MPN) and MPN-5’-glucoside (MPNG). Through the screening of four oxidases and ten reaction mediators, the laccase-syringaldehyde system was successfully established. After optimizing the reaction conditions using response surface methodology (RSM), ginkgotoxins in both raw and boiled ginkgo seed powder was completely degraded at a temperature of 40 °C and a solvent to solid ratio (60 mL/g) of the ginkgo seed powder suspension within 3 h. Furthermore, the main nutritional components of detoxified ginkgo seed powder did not exhibit significant changes, but there was inevitably a decrease in the content of bioactive compounds. Finally, an acute oral toxicity assessment demonstrated that the detoxified ginkgo seed powder was virtually non-toxic. Therefore, enzymatic degradation using the laccase-syringaldehyde system has the potential to be a simple and effective approach for removing ginkgotoxins from ginkgo seed powder, thereby meeting the safety requirements for ginkgo products.

In this study, an ultrasonic-assisted natural deep eutectic solvent (NaDES) was used to extract flavonoids from Perilla frutescens (L.) Britt. leaves. Of 10 tested NaDESs, that comprising D-(+)-glucose and glycerol exhibited the best total flavonoid extraction rate. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used for extraction modeling and optimization, and the total flavonoid content reached 87.48 ± 1.61 mg RE/g DW, which was a significant increase of 5.36% compared with that of 80% ethanol extraction. Morphological changes in P. frutescens leaves before and after extraction were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the mechanism of NaDES formation was studied by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Furthermore, 10 flavonoids were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS. In addition, the NaDES extract had better biological activity according to several antioxidant, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and hyaluronidase (Hyal) inhibition experiments. Moreover, the stability test revealed that the total flavonoid loss rate of the NaDES extract after four weeks was 37.75% lower than that of the ethanol extract. These results indicate that the NaDES can effectively extract flavonoids from P. frutescens leaves and provide a reference for further applications in the food, medicine, health product and cosmetic industries.

Dough elasticity and bread quality depend on the gluten network formation which by nature is the oxidative crosslinking of glutenin. It is known for long, either in the kitchen or in the laboratory, sodium chloride (NaCl) enhances dough rheological properties while itself is not an oxidant. However, besides NaCl induced gluten aggregation, the molecular mechanism behind this phenomenon is largely unknown. Azodicarbonamide (ADA) and Vitamin C (Vc) improve dough qualities with different mechanisms. Here, response surface methodology (RSM) was used to study the synergistic effect of ADA, Vc and NaCl on the dough and subsequent bread qualities. Results show that NaCl dominates the dough alveographic characters in the presence of oxidative flour improvers, and fine tune of NaCl concentration profoundly impacts subsequent bread properties. Consistent with free sulfhydryl assay and glutenin gel electrophoresis analysis, simulation study reveals that NaCl concentration affects glutenin conformation and intermolecular interaction which in turn impacts their orientation adjustment that lead to sulfhydryl contact and crosslinking.

In preparing monoclonal antibodies by hybridoma cell technology, the quality of B lymphocytes used for cell fusion directly affects the sensitivity of monoclonal antibodies. To obtain B-lymphocytes producing high-quality specific antibodies for cell fusion during the immunization phase of the antigen, we prepared a TH2-Cell stimulatory delivery system as a novel adjuvant. Astragalus polysaccharide has a good ability to enhance antigenic immune response, and it was encapsulated in biocompatible materials PLGA as an immunostimulatory factor to form the delivery system (APS-PLGA). The preparation conditions of APSP were optimized using RSM to attain the highest utilization of APS. Immunization against ZEN-BSA antigen using APSP as an adjuvant to obtain B lymphocytes producing ZEN-specific antibodies for cell fusion. As results present, APSP could induce a stronger TH2 immune response through differentiating CD4 T cells and promoting IL-4 and IL-6 cytokines. Moreover, it could slow down the release efficiency of ZEN-BSA and enhance the targeting of ZEN-BSA to lymph nodes in vivo experiments. Ultimately, the sensitivity of mouse serum ZEN-specific antibodies was enhanced upon completion of immunization, indicating a significant upregulation of high-quality B lymphocyte expression. In the preparation of monoclonal antibodies, the proportion of positive wells for the first screening was 60%, and the inhibition rates of the antibodies were all similar (>50%). Then we obtained the ZEN monoclonal antibody with IC50 of 0.049 ng/mL, which was more sensitive than most antibodies prepared under conventional adjuvants. Finally, a TRFIAS strip assay was preliminarily established with a LOD value of 0.246 ng/mL.

The present study employed a modified QuEChERS method to systematically analyze the presence of fifteen quinolone and seven tetracycline antibiotic residues in local animal food. Additionally, a multi-level four-factor Box–Behnken design (BBD) within the framework of response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to evaluate the factors impacting the detection efficiency of the sample pretreatment procedure. Optimization was performed via Design Expert®10.0.3, and the factors, including the volume of the acetonitrile, the addition of formic acid, the duration of the extraction, and the addition of EDTA, were combined with experimental design until an optimal solution was reached. Finally, the sample was tested via ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-linear ion trap mass spectrometry (UPLC/MS/MS) in both multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) and enhanced product ion (EPI) scan modes on a QTRAP®5500 instrument (AB SCIEX instruments, Framingham, MA, USA). The overall average recoveries from actual samples fortified with 22 antibiotics at three levels ranged from 73.8% to 98.5% based on the use of matrix-fortified calibration, with variations ranging from 5.80 to 12.4% (n= 6). The limits of detection and quantification were 0.3 μg kg−1and 1.0 μg kg−1, respectively. Lastly, the modified method was applied to practical sample analysis in the daily risk monitoring and assessment of food safety with satisfactory stability and robustness.Keywords:antibiotics residue;response surface methodology (RSM);quinolones;tetracyclines;multiple reaction monitoring (MRM)
