Chen, Xiao published the artcileLipase-catalyzed modification of milk fat: A promising way to alter flavor notes of goat milk products, Safety of Methyl octanoate, the main research area is lipase milk fat modification fatty acid synthesis.

The rancid and tart off-flavor of goat milk limits the popularization of its associated products. In this study, a two-step enzymic catalysis method was proposed to generate new aromatic notes that could alter the neg. flavor perception of goat milk products. The goat milk fat was first hydrolyzed to prepare fatty acids (FFAs) as substrates, and then esterification was carried out for the synthesis of esters with pleasant notes. In the first step, the FFAs were sufficiently released, accounting for 97.5% of the volatile fraction. In the final reconstituted goat milk product, esters with sweet, floral, and fruity-like notes occupied more than 65% of the total volatile compounds, while the abundance of fatty acids characterized by unpleasant odor decreased by 75%. Especially, 4-methyloctanoic acid, one of the FFAs responsible for the “”goaty”” flavor, was not detected under the substrate molar ratio of 0.4. Moreover, the performance of four com. lipases was investigated and compared during the first step. Lipozyme TL IM was the most efficient in the catalysis of lipid hydrolysis at 60°C and pH 8.0. The two-step lipase-catalyzed product provided a sweet and fruity note to goat milk products and reduced the intensity of the unpleasant “”goaty”” flavor.

Lu, Hao-Cheng published the artcileReducing the source/sink ratio of grapevine to face global warming in a semi-arid climate: Effects on volatile composition of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and wines, Related Products of esters-buliding-blocks, the main research area is grapevine metabolite environment global warming climate change; 1-LR1, distal leaf removal at the beginning of véraison in the same vines across vintages; 1-LR2, distal leaf removal at post-véraison in the same vines across vintages; 2-LR1, distal leaf removal at the beginning of véraison in new vines of each vintage; 2-LR2, distal leaf removal at post-véraison in new vines of each vintage; Aroma compounds; Carry-over effect; Distal leaf removal; GC–MS, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry; GDD, growing degree days; Global warming; HS-SPME, headspace solid phase microextraction; LR1, distal leaf removal at the beginning of véraison; LR2, distal leaf removal at post-véraison; Microclimate; OAV, odor activity values; Vintage.

The heterogeneity of the vineyard environment caused high variability in grape metabolites and flavor profiles, and the phenomenon was more prominent in recent years of climate change. Herein, distal leaf removal was applied in semi-arid Xinjiang to adjust the source to sink ratio of grapevines for three consecutive years (2018-2020). The grape-derived volatiles showed high correlations with specific climate factors such as temperature changes in the growth period. Results showed that distal leaf removal increased the solar radiation reaching the clusters in the first few days after applying LR treatments while not affecting the temperature The improvement in fruity and floral aroma intensity by distal leaf removal was founded not only in grape metabolites but also in wines. Moderate cluster exposure brought by distal leaf removal was beneficial for the accumulation of isoprenoids, which therefore increased the fruity and floral intensity of wines. The carry-over effect did not show in consecutively defoliated vines among vintages regarding the wine aroma profile.

Ranjbar, Shahin published the artcileCytoplasmic RNA Sensor Pathways and Nitazoxanide Broadly Inhibit Intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis Growth, Related Products of esters-buliding-blocks, the main research area is cytoplasm RNA sensor signaling nitazoxanide Mycobacterium infection growth; Biological Sciences; Immune Response; Immunology; Microbiology; Molecular Microbiology.

To establish stable infection, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTb) must overcome host innate immune mechanisms, including those that sense pathogen-derived nucleic acids. Here, we show that the host cytosolic RNA sensing mols. RIG-I-like receptor (RLR) signaling proteins RIG-I and MDA5, their common adaptor protein MAVS, and the RNA-dependent kinase PKR each independently inhibit MTb growth in human cells. Furthermore, we show that MTb broadly stimulates RIG-I, MDA5, MAVS, and PKR gene expression and their biol. activities. We also show that the oral FDA-approved drug nitazoxanide (NTZ) significantly inhibits intracellular MTb growth and amplifies MTb-stimulated RNA sensor gene expression and activity. This study establishes prototypic cytoplasmic RNA sensors as innate restriction factors for MTb growth in human cells and it shows that targeting this pathway is a potential host-directed approach to treat tuberculosis disease.

Farrow, Blake published the artcileEpitope Targeting of Tertiary Protein Structure Enables Target-Guided Synthesis of a Potent In-Cell Inhibitor of Botulinum Neurotoxin, COA of Formula: C28H37NO9, the main research area is tertiary protein target guided indium cell inhibitor botulinum neurotoxin; botulinum neurotoxin; combinatorial screening; epitope targeting; peptides; target-guided synthesis.

Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) serotype A is the most lethal known toxin and has an occluded structure, which prevents direct inhibition of its active site before it enters the cytosol. Target-guided synthesis by in situ click chem. is combined with synthetic epitope targeting to exploit the tertiary structure of the BoNT protein as a landscape for assembling a competitive inhibitor. A substrate-mimicking peptide macrocycle is used as a direct inhibitor of BoNT. An epitope-targeting in situ click screen is utilized to identify a second peptide macrocycle ligand that binds to an epitope that, in the folded BoNT structure, is active-site-adjacent. A second in situ click screen identifies a mol. bridge between the two macrocycles. The resulting divalent inhibitor exhibits an in vitro inhibition constant of 165 pM against the BoNT/A catalytic chain. The inhibitor is carried into cells by the intact holotoxin, and demonstrates protection and rescue of BoNT intoxication in a human neuron model.

Homem, Vera published the artcileGone with the flow – Assessment of personal care products in Portuguese rivers, Formula: C15H20O3, the main research area is personal care product flow Portuguese river; GC–MS/MS; Personal care products; Solid-phase microextraction; Surface water.

Although there are several works in the literature that study the presence of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in surface waters, the vast majority focus their attention on pharmaceuticals and little information is found about personal care products (PCPs). Therefore, this study focused, for the first time, on the monitoring of five classes of PCPs-fragrance allergens, synthetic musks, phthalates, antioxidants, and UV-filters-in the surface water of four small-size typically pollution-impacted Portuguese rivers (Ave, Leca, Antua≈and Certima). A solid-phase microextraction (SPME) followed by gas chromatog.-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) protocol was employed to analyze surface water samples collected in two seasonal campaigns-summer and winter (34 samples per season). A total of 22 out of 37 target PCPs were detected concomitantly at least once in one sampling point, being the most frequently detected α-isomethyl ionone, galaxolide, tonalide and cashmeran. The highest concentrations were confirmed for diethylhexyl phthalate (610.6 ng L-1), galaxolide (379.2 ng L-1), geraniol (290.9 ng L-1), linalool (271.2 ng L-1), benzophenone-3 (254.1 ng L-1) and citronellol (200.2 ng L-1). Leca River, traversing the more densely urban and industrialized area, had the highest levels of contaminants, which were also found in the sampling points located downstream of wastewater treatment plants discharge points. In general, higher levels were detected in summer, when the river flows are lower. Hazard quotients were determined and octocrylene, tonalide, and geraniol presented values above 1 in some sampling sites, which may indicate an ecotoxicol. risk to the aquatic environment. The results presented suggest that these three PCPs should be included as priority pollutants in environmental monitoring schemes in surface waters, due to their high detection, persistence, and potential adverse effects.

Cai, Zizhe published the artcileLitsea cubeba kernel oil as a promising new medium-chain saturated fatty acid feedstock for biolubricant base oil synthesis, Recommanded Product: Methyl decanoate, the main research area is Litsea cubeba kernel oil saturated fatty acid feedstock biolubricant.

Litsea cubeba (LC) kernel is a kind of waste after LC essential oil processing, which oil was found to be rich in medium chain fatty acids. Such oil was originally applied as a potential feedstock for the synthesis of trimethylolpropane fatty acid triester (TFATE) as a biolubricant base oil with desirable lubricating properties. LC kernel oil was firstly decolorized, and then treated by glycerolysis and methanolysis to produce LC fatty acid Me ester (FAME). The biolubricant base oil was produced by the transesterification of LC FAME with trimethylolpropane (TMP) catalyzed by TMP-potassium, where reaction conditions were FAME to TMP ratio (4:1), catalyst dosage (10% based on TMP), pressure (100 Pa), temperature (130 °C) and time (1 h). The products from each processing step were characterized by GC-FID, ATR-FTIR, and DSC to make sure the reaction complete. The purified product with 92.0% of TFATE was finally obtained by mol. distillation, which lubricating properties were qualified according to ISO VG 32 standard The present findings proposed that LC kernel oil could be used as a promising alternative biolubricant feedstock as its derived TFATE product could achieve good oxidative stability (35 min, ROBT 150 °C) and low-temperature performance (pour point of -15 °C).

Kothe, Vinicius published the artcileThermodynamic analysis, experimental and kinetic modeling of levulinic acid esterification with ethanol at supercritical conditions, Recommanded Product: Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate, the main research area is levulinic acid esterification ethanol thermodn kinetic model.

Et levulinate is an environmentally friendly biomass-derived ester that is an alternative to the classic petroleum-derived fuel additives. Several studies have been addressed to its chem. production pathways. The supercritical esterification of levulinic acid to Et levulinate, however, remains understudied. This work reports the effect of process variables and a kinetic study for the esterification of levulinic acid with ethanol under sub and supercritical conditions. Exptl. data were obtained in a continuous tubular reactor at a fixed pressure of 100 bar. The reaction temperature varied from 220 to 280 °C, and the ethanol to levulinic acid molar ratios from (2:1) to (9:1). Et levulinate was synthesized with high selectivity under all evaluated reaction conditions, achieving conversions up to 80% and 93% when ethanol to levulinic acid molar ratios of (2:1) and (9:1) were used, resp. A PFR model approach was considered with an elementary reversible self-catalyzed rate law, and the effect of considering the mixture d. behavior through the reactor using the PC-SAFT equation of state was discussed. The proposed kinetic approach was able to correlate the kinetic exptl. data for all exptl. conditions used in this study. Furthermore, a thermodn. anal. was performed to elucidate trends in reaction performance.

Russo, Vincenzo published the artcileKinetic study of Amberlite IR120 catalyzed acid esterification of levulinic acid with ethanol: From batch to continuous operation, Category: esters-buliding-blocks, the main research area is levulinic acid ethanol esterification cation exchanger kinetics ethyl levulinate.

Levulinic acid (LA) is 1 of the most important platform chems. as it is a versatile building block for a variety of high value-added products, fine chems. and pharmaceutical intermediates. Catalytic esterification of LA with alkyl alcs. leads to levulinate esters which can be used as fragrances, flavoring agents and fuel additives. The kinetics of the levulinic acid esterification with EtOH in the presence of Amberlite IR120 was studied in a batch reactor. The collected exptl. data were interpreted with a reliable model taking into account also for the mass transfer phenomena involved in the reaction network. The kinetic model was further validated by conducting experiments in a fixed bed reactor. The reactor was characterized in terms of fluid-dynamics and the collected kinetic data were interpreted with a reliable reactor model, considering the extent of the reaction and fluid-solid mass transfer limitation.
