The escalating global burden of hyperuricemia, driven by modern dietary patterns and sedentary lifestyles, has prompted urgent exploration of novel therapeutic strategies, with particular emphasis on developing targeted probiotic interventions as a potential alternative to conventional pharmacological approaches. This study successfully isolated Limosilactobacillus fermentum FOSU YHD19 from fermented foods, demonstrating remarkable in vitro uric acid reduction of 12.90% along with high-level degradation of nucleosides. A comprehensive safety evaluation confirmed the absence of harmful enzymatic activities (including nitroreductase, decarboxylase and tryptophanase), hemolytic properties, or antibiotic resistance. The strain exhibited strong stress tolerance, surviving in acidic conditions (pH 2.0), with exposure to gastric juice, and when in the presence of 0.1% bile salts. Additionally, YHD19 demonstrated potent antibacterial activity against multiple pathogenic strains, including E coli , S. aureus , L. monocytogenes , and S. enteritidis . Genomic analysis revealed three nucleoside hydrolases and six transporter systems that collectively facilitate the hypouricemic activity. By ruling out the presence of key uric acid-synthesizing enzymes (xanthine dehydrogenase/oxidase and guanine deaminase), we can attribute the hypouricemic effect primarily to a nucleoside-scavenging mechanism. In addition, the genome harbors 91 stress-responsive genes implicated in acid/base adaptation, thermal shock response, and oxidative defense mechanisms, underscoring the strain’s resilience under gastrointestinal stresses. These findings position YHD19 as a safe and effective probiotic candidate for functional foods aimed at managing hyperuricemia, supporting its safety profile for potential probiotic applications.

The overproduction of uric acid, driven by its key precursors (inosine and guanosine), leads to hyperuricemia, a metabolic disorder associated with severe complications such as gout and renal dysfunction. Here, a promising bacterial strain YC06 with excellent biodegradation capability for inosine and guanosine was successfully isolated from healthy individual feces and identified as Bacillus paranthracis through average nucleotide identity (ANI) analysis. B. paranthracis YC06 resting cells (live but suspended in PBS buffer) and its cell-free extracts could effectively biodegrade inosine and guanosine in vitro. Whole-genome sequencing revealed a 5,535,183 bp draft genome (52 contigs, 35.22% GC content) containing 5,672 protein-coding genes. B. paranthracis YC06 demonstrated high survival rates in simulated gastrointestinal fluids, supported by the presence of stress-response genes and bile salt hydrolase genes associated with gastrointestinal tolerance. However, this strain exhibited hemolytic activity and no amino acid decarboxylase activity, while hemolysin genes, antibiotic genes and toxin-producing genes were identified, raising potential biosafety concerns for its further application. The gene functional annotation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification electrophoresis identified key genes ( rihA , rihB , deoD and pnp ) encoding purine nucleosidase and purine-nucleoside phosphorylase, and combined with biodegradation product analysis, elucidated the pathways of inosine and guanosine biodegradation into hypoxanthine and guanine. Comprehensive safety evaluations, including cytotoxicity assay and in vivo pathogenicity studies, must be conducted to rigorously assess its risks prior to practical utilization.

A mixed-mode chromatographic packing material, C18 and diol groups modified silica (C18-Diol), was prepared with controllable hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity . It demonstrated excellent aqueous compatibility and stability in aqueous mobile phase ; compared to the traditional C18 column, improved peak shape of basic analytes was also obtained. Additionally, it exhibited both reversed-phase liquid chromatographic (RPLC) and hydrophilic interaction chromatographic (HILIC) performance; the analyte separation scope was thus enlarged, demonstrated by simultaneous separation of twenty acids, bases and neutrals. More interestingly, a novel on-line two-dimensional liquid chromatography on the single column (2D-LC-1C) was established by modifying the high performance liquid chromatographic instrument only with the addition of an extra six-port two-position valve. The early co-eluted components of the extract of Lonicera japonica on the 1st-dimension (RPLC) were collected for the online re-injection to the 2nd-dimension (HILIC) by conveniently varying the mobile phase components. Six more peaks were obtained. The established system was simple, easy operation and low cost, which had advantages in analyzing complicated samples.

Surface-initiated anionic-ring-opening multibranching polymerization was employed to prepare a hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG) functionalized silica stationary phase for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC). The obtained stationary phase was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The chromatographic properties of the prepared stationary phase were systematically investigated. The abundance and multitude distribution of hydroxyl groups in HPG endowed the stationary phase with improved hydrophilicity and enhanced separation performance compared with the stationary phase functionalized with monolayer of hydroxyl groups. The stationary phase showed excellent retention of various polar compounds, such as nucleosides, necleobases, phenols and sulfanilamides, indicating great potential in the separation of complex biosamples.

Antarctic krill, a shrimp-like crustacean, whose quality strongly influences the quality of fermented shrimp sauce, yet the relationship and prediction methods remain unclear. This study evaluated 75 krill samples of varying freshness and their corresponding shrimp sauces, and successfully developed a high-performance predictive model linking raw material quality to product quality. Shrimp spoiled significantly after only 24 h at room temperature, exhibiting darkened color, increased spoilage-related compounds, with yield and conversion rate sharply decreasing from 80.4 % and 87.1 % to 58.9 % and 63.7 %, respectively. Machine learning with multiple feature selection methods and models showed that Lasso regression effectively reduced collinearity, and its integration with a linear model enhanced prediction accuracy, with nearly 80 % of features well-fitted and about 70 % showing mean absolute percentage error below 5 %. This study successfully established an accurate model linking krill freshness to shrimp sauce quality, which offered guidance for krill utilization and intelligent fermentation.
