Leaf volatile organic compounds profiles from two citrus genotypes differing in susceptibility to Phytophthora citrophthora infection

The leaves of two citrus genotypes, citrange ‘Carrizo’ and sweet orange ‘Washington Navel’ were artificially infected by the oomycete Phytophthora citrophthora, the causal agent of trunk gummosis and fruit brown rot of citrus, to study the profile of leaf stored terpenoids in the response to the pathogen infection. On ‘Washington Navel’ leaves the symptoms were more severe and manifested earlier than on ‘Carrizo’ leaves.Overall, 35 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were identified by GC-MS analysis in the not-infected (control) and infected leaf extracts from the two citrus genotypes. Interesting the two volatile profiles differed not in the quality, but in the quantity of each compound. After infection, the amount of 15 out of the 35 identified VOCs varied significantly. The level of five metabolites changed in both species, while two of the compounds changed exclusively in ‘Citrange’ and eight exclusively in ‘Washington Navel’. To understand the potential role of differentially expressed stored volatiles in the citrus response mechanisms to the infection, the inhibitory activity of ten of them volatiles was tested in vitro on P. citrophthora. Citral, linalool and trans-2-hexenal completely inhibited the mycelium growth suggesting the possible involvement of these compounds in the defence mechanisms of citrus against P. citrophthora. This study provides new insights into a potential role of stored VOCs in the response mechanisms against the oomycete pathogen P. citrophthora in citrus species. Furthermore, it paves the way for future investigations aimed at assessing the potential utilization of VOCs for priming purposes.

Time shift correction was specifically optimized in this work. The information on mass spectra and elution profiles of compounds was used to search for inherent landmarks within analyzed samples to resolve the time shift problem across samples efficiently and accurately. The performance of our AntDAS-GCMS was comprehensively investigated by using four complex GC-MS data sets with various types of time shift problems. Meanwhile, AntDAS-GCMS was compared with advanced GC-MS data analysis tools and classic time shift correction methods. Results indicated that AntDAS-GCMS could achieve the best performance compared to the other methods.

Physicochemical and Volatile Compounds Analysis of Fruit Wines Fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae: FTIR and Microscopy Study with Focus on Anti-Inflammatory Potential.

The growing trend in fruit wine production reflects consumers' interest in novel, diverse drinking experiences and the increasing demand for healthier beverage options. Fruit wines made from kiwi, pomegranates, and persimmons fermented using S. bayanus Lalvin strain EC1118 demonstrate the versatility of winemaking techniques. Kiwifruit, persimmon, and pomegranate wines were analyzed using HPLC and GC-TOFMS analyses to determine their concentrations of phenolic acids and volatile compounds. These results were supported by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy to characterize and compare chemical shifts in the polyphenol regions of these wines. The wines' characterization included an anti-inflammatory assay based on NO, TNF-alpha, and IL-6 production in the RAW 264.7 macrophage model. FTIR spectroscopy predicted the antioxidant and phenolic contents in the wines. In terms of polyphenols, predominantly represented by chlorogenic, caffeic, and gallic acids, pomegranate and kiwifruit wines showed greater benefits. However, kiwifruit wines exhibited a highly diverse profile of volatile compounds. Further analysis is necessary, particularly regarding the use of other microorganisms in the fermentation process and non-Saccharomyces strains methods. These wines exhibit high biological antioxidant potential and health properties, providing valuable insights for future endeavors focused on designing healthy functional food products.

Enantioselective synthesis, characterization, molecular docking simulation and ADMET profiling of α-alkylated carbonyl compounds as antimicrobial agents

All living organisms produce only one enantiomer, so we found that all natural compounds are presented in enantiomerically pure form. Asymmetric synthesis is highly spread in medicinal chemistry because enantiomerically pure drugs are highly applicable. This study initially demonstrated the feasibility of a good idea for the asymmetric synthesis of α-alkylated carbonyl compounds with high enantiomeric purity ranging from 91 to 94% using different quinazolinone derivatives. The structure of all compounds was confirmed via elemental analysis and different spectroscopic data and the enantioselectivity was determined via HPLC using silica gel column. The synthesized compounds’ mode of action was investigated using molecular docking against the outer membrane protein A (OMPA) and exo-1,3-beta-glucanase, with interpreting their pharmacokinetics aspects. The results of the antimicrobial effectiveness of these compounds revealed that compound 6a has a broad biocidal activity and this in-vitro study was in line with the in-silico results. Overall, the formulated compound 6a can be employed as antimicrobial agent without any toxicity with high bioavailability in medical applications.

Metabolomics of Vitis davidii Foëx. grapes from southern China: Flavonoids and volatiles reveal the flavor profiles of five spine grape varieties

The spine grapes (Vitis davidii Foëx.) are wild grape species that grow in southern China, and can be used for table grapes, juicing and winemaking. To systematically investigate the flavor profiles of spine grapes, flavonoids and volatile compounds were detected in five spine grape varieties (Seputao, Ziqiu, Miputao, Tianputao and Baiputao) using HPLC-QqQ-MS/MS and GC–MS. The content of flavonoids highly depended on the variety, such as the total concentrations of anthocyanins (91.43–328.85 mg/kg FW) and flavonols (33.90 to 83.16 mg/kg FW). The volatile compounds with higher odor active value were selected to describe the aroma of spine grapes. Hexanal, (E)-2-hexenal and (E, Z)-2,6-nonadienal contributed to the higher herbaceous flavor to Baiputao and Ziqiu. β-Damascenone and (E)-2-nonenal gave Baiputao a flavor with more floral, fruity and earthy. Their characteristic flavor compounds were subsequently revealed using multivariate statistical analysis. The results helped producers to further develop and utilize the spine grapes.

Seasonal and Morphology Effects on Bioactive Compounds, Antioxidant Capacity, and Sugars Profile of Black Carrot (Daucus carota ssp. sativus var. atrorubens Alef.).

Black carrot (Daucus carota ssp. sativus var. atrorubens Alef.) is widely recognized for its bioactive compounds and antioxidant properties. The black carrot of Cuevas Bajas (Málaga) is a local variety characterized by a black/purple core, which differs from other black carrot varieties. Therefore, this autochthonous variety was characterized according to the root size and the harvesting season by means of a study of its antioxidant capacity analyzed by three methods, its total carotenoids content, and its sugars and phenolic compounds profile by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS). A total of 20 polyphenolic compounds were quantified in 144 samples analyzed. The anthocyanidins group was observed to be the most abundant, followed by the hydroxycinnamic acids group. Moreover, pelargonidin 3-sambubioside was observed in black carrot for the first time. The medium-sized carrots presented the highest content of phenolic compounds, largely due to their significantly higher anthocyanidins content. Comparatively, the small carrots showed a higher content of simple sugars than the large ones. Regarding the influence of season, significantly higher quantities of glucose and fructose were observed in the late-season carrots, while sucrose was the main sugar in early-season samples. No significant differences were observed in the total carotenoid content of black carrot.

Microbiome dynamics and environment driving factors throughout pit fermentation of Jiang-flavor Baijiu: A multi-omics study

Pit fermentation process has a significant impact on Baijiu production. However, the dynamics patterns and environmental driving mechanisms in Jiang-flavor Baijiu pit fermentation remain unclear. Here, we present a multi-omics study on 180 Jiang-flavor Baijiu fermentation samples across the pit fermentation process. We revealed and validated the dynamics and metabolic functions of the core species employing both culture-independent (i.e., metagenomics and metatranscriptomics) and culture-dependent tools. Our findings delineate the fermentation into three distinct stages, each characterized by a unique microbial community, functional profile, and accumulation of flavor compounds. In stage I, Bacillus subtilis, Pichia kudriavzevii, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were the most abundant species, while Acetilactobacillus jinshanensis, S. cerevisiae, P. kudriavzevii, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and Zygosaccharomyces bailii had the highest transcriptional activity. In stage II, A. jinshanensis emerged as the most abundant and metabolically active species in stage II, reaching a proportion of 45.69% ± 20.21%, and maintained a leading role in stage III with a proportion of 65.75% ± 6.56%, a period marked by minimal microbial diversity and significant accumulation of key flavor substances, notably esters and acids. In addition, A. jinshanensis was isolated and its core acid-producing microbial status confirmed based on culture-dependent tools. Structural equation modeling indicated that A. jinshanensis plays crucial roles in the heterogeneous succession of alcohol-producing microorganisms, with spatial differences in acidity being a key factor. This work not only provides a robust analytical framework for understanding the Baijiu fermentation microbiome but also lays the groundwork for technological innovation in the fermentation industry.

Monitoring the Phenolic and Terpenic Profile of Olives, Olive Oils and By-Products throughout the Production Process.

Olive oil is a food of great importance in the Mediterranean diet and culture. However, during its production, the olive oil industry generates a large amount of waste by-products that can be an important source of bioactive compounds, such as phenolic compounds and terpenes, revalorizing them in the context of the circular economy. Therefore, it is of great interest to study the distribution and abundance of these bioactive compounds in the different by-products. This research is a screening focused on phytochemical analysis, with particular emphasis on the identification and quantification of the phenolic and terpenic fractions. Both the main products of the olive industry (olives, olive paste and produced oil) and the by-products generated throughout the oil production process (leaf, "alpeorujo", liquid and solid residues generated during decanting commonly named "borras" and washing water) were analyzed. For this purpose, different optimized extraction procedures were performed for each matrix, followed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-TOF/MS) analysis. Although no phenolic alcohols were quantified in the leaf and the presence of secoiridoids was low, this by-product was notable for its flavonoid (720 ± 20 µg/g) and terpene (5000 ± 300 µg/g) contents. "Alpeorujo" presented a complete profile of compounds of interest, being abundant in phenolic alcohols (900 ± 100 µg/g), secoiridoids (4500 ± 500 µg/g) and terpenes (1200 ± 100 µg/g), among others. On the other hand, while the solid residue of the borras was the most abundant in phenolic alcohols (3700 ± 200 µg/g) and secoiridoids (680 ± 20 µg/g), the liquid fraction of this waste was notable for its content of elenolic acid derivatives (1700 ± 100 µg/mL) and phenolic alcohols (3000 ± 300 µg/mL). Furthermore, to our knowledge, this is the first time that the terpene content of this by-product has been monitored, demonstrating that it is an important source of these compounds, especially maslinic acid (120 ± 20 µg/g). Finally, the phytochemical content in wash water was lower than expected, and only elenolic acid derivatives were detected (6 ± 1 µg/mL). The results highlighted the potential of the olive by-products as possible alternative sources of a wide variety of olive bioactive compounds for their revalorization into value-added products.

This study investigated the food properties, phytochemical profiles, and pharmacological activities of tossa jute sprout, underscoring the exploration of its potential as a functional food. Tossa jute sprout is rich in protein, carbohydrate, fiber, total soluble solids, color content, total energy, vitamins, and minerals, with a lower fat and sugar content. Bioactive compound profiling found that it contains a significant quantity of total phenolics and flavonoids. The HPLC-DAD polyphenol profile detected ten compounds, with 3,4 dihydroxybenzoic acid being the most abundant compound, followed by (−) epicatechin, rosmarinic acid, kaempferol, catechin hydrate, caffeic acid, myricetin, catechol, trans-ferulic acid, and rutin hydrate. It has strong radical scavenging, reducing power, metal chelating power, and total antioxidant power, suggesting this sprout's ability to repair cellular oxidative damage or restore impaired cellular oxidative homeostasis. It also possesses strong α-glucosidase and pancreatic lipase inhibition activities, but mild α-amylase, acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibition activities support the sprout's ability to lower blood sugar, suppress postprandial hyperglycemia, downregulate fat metabolism, and maintain or restore acetylcholine. Overall findings established tossa jute sprout's high potential as a functional food in eliminating malnutrition, maintaining quality health, and eradicating or moderating ailments, including diabetes, obesity, and Alzheimer's.

Valorization of a Local Italian Pear (Pyrus communis L. cv. ‘Petrucina’)

In recent decades, the food production chain has undergone transformations that have profoundly affected the way food is supplied, causing changes in the quality of the final products. Moreover, biodiversity is seriously threatened worldwide, and the valorization of local germplasm is a priority goal for most sectorial policies in Europe and elsewhere. Southern Italy and the Mediterranean basin present a vast heritage of fruit tree cultivars that is gradually being lost. Through this work, we aim to valorize a well-adapted local pear cultivar named Petrucina from the Salento area (southeastern Italy, Apulia region), which has never been studied before in detail. With this aim, the nutritional and nutraceutical features of pear flesh were characterized and compared with a reference pear cultivar that is widespread and well-known in Europe (cv. ‘Conference’). Petrucina fruits have shown a peculiar aromatic compound profile, and a content of up to 398.3, 30.9, and 4.7 mg/100 g FW of malic acid, citric acid, and ascorbic acid, respectively, much higher than that of Conference fruits. Additionally, Petrucina flesh presents a more than triple total phenolic content and an antioxidant activity more than double that of Conference, making Petrucina a true functional food that deserves wide appreciation.

Profiling the Bioactive Compounds in Broccoli Heads with Varying Organ Sizes and Growing Seasons.

Broccoli is a rich source of diverse bioactive compounds, but how their contents are influenced by different growing seasons and variations in broccoli head sizes remains elusive. To address this question, we quantified sixteen known bioactive compounds and seven minerals in broccoli with varying head sizes obtained in two different growing seasons. Our results suggest that the contents of vitamin C, total phenols, carotenoids, and glucoraphanin were significantly higher in samples from the summer-autumn season, showing increases of 157.46%, 34.74%, 51.80%, and 17.78%, respectively, compared with those from the winter-spring season. Moreover, chlorogenic acid is a phenolic compound with relatively high contents among the six detected, while beta-sitosterol is the sterol with relatively high contents. Further, principal component analysis was conducted to rank the comprehensive scores of the profiles of phenolic compounds, phytosterols, and minerals, demonstrating that the broccoli samples grown during the summer-autumn season achieved the highest composite scores. Our results indicate that broccoli heads from the summer-autumn season are richer in a combination of bioactive compounds and minerals than those from the winter-spring season based on the composite score. This study extends our understanding of the nutrition profiles in broccoli and also lays the foundation for breeding broccoli varieties with improved nutrition quality.

Chemical and Bioactive Properties of Red Rice with Potential Pharmaceutical Use.

Red rice has been proposed as a super-food. Accordingly, the nutritional properties (AOAC), as well as its chemical composition, including sugars (HPLC-RI), organic acids (UFLC-PDA), tocopherols (HPLD-FD), and phenolic compounds (LC-DAD-ESI/MSn), together with the main bioactive properties (antioxidant, cytotoxic, antiproliferative, and antibacterial activities), were evaluated to access its nutritional benefits and health improvement potential. The most abundant macronutrients found were carbohydrates (87.2 g/100 g dw), proceeded by proteins (9.1 g/100 g dw), fat (2.6 g/100 g dw), and ash (1.1 g/100 g dw). Sucrose and raffinose were the only detected sugars, with sucrose presenting the maximum concentration (0.74 g/100 g dw). MUFAs and PUFAs were the predominant fatty acids (40.7% and 31%, respectively). Among the two detected tocopherol isoforms, γ-tocopherol (0.67 mg/100 g dw) predominated over α-tocopherol. The phenolic compounds profile, majorly composed of flavan-3-ols, should be associated with the detected bioactivities, which may provide biological benefits to human health beyond the primary nutritional effect. Overall, the bioactive potential of red rice was comprehensively accessed.
