Abstract
INTRODUCTION Untargeted metabolomics is a powerful tool that provides strategies for gaining a systematic understanding of quantitative changes in the levels of metabolites, especially when combining different metabolomic platforms. Vanilla is one of the world's most popular flavors originating from cured pods of the orchid Vanilla planifolia. However, only a few studies have investigated the metabolome of V. planifolia, and no LC-MS or GC-MS metabolomics studies with respect to leaves have been performed. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to comprehensively characterize the metabolome of different organs (leaves, internodes, and aerial roots) of V. planifolia. MATERIAL AND METHODS Characterization of the metabolome was achieved using two complementary platforms (GC × GC-MS, LC-QToF-MS), and metabolite identification was based on a comparison with in-house databases or curated external spectral libraries. RESULTS In total, 127 metabolites could be identified with high certainty (confidence level 1 or 2) including sugars, amino acids, fatty acids, organic acids, and amines/amides but also secondary metabolites such as vanillin-related metabolites, flavonoids, and terpenoids. Ninty-eight metabolites showed significantly different intensities between the plant organs. Most strikingly, aglycons of flavonoids and vanillin-related metabolites were elevated in aerial roots, whereas its O-glycoside forms tended to be higher in leaves and/or internodes. This suggests that the more bioactive aglycones may accumulate where preferably needed, e.g. for defense against pathogens. CONCLUSION The results derived from the study substantially expand the knowledge regarding the vanilla metabolome forming a valuable basis for more targeted investigations in future studies, e.g. towards an optimization of vanilla plant cultivation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epilepsy is a severe neurological disorder associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Vanillin (Van) is a natural phenolic aldehyde with beneficial pharmacological properties. This study investigated the neuroprotective effects of Van in epilepsy and elucidated its mechanism of action. METHODS Swiss albino mice were divided into the following five groups: "normal group", 0.9 % saline; "pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) group", intraperitoneal administration of 35 mg/kg PTZ on alternate days up to 42 days; and "PTZ + Van 20", "PTZ + Van 40", and "PTZ + sodium valproate (Val)" groups received PTZ injections in conjunction withVan 20 mg, Van 40 mg/kg, and Val 300 mg/kg, respectively. Behavioural tests and hippocampal histopathological analysis were performed in all groups. The Nrf2/HO-1/NQO1 and HMGB1/RAGE/TLR4/NFκB pathways, oxidative stress, neuro-inflammation, and apoptotic markers were analysed. Furthermore, brain acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity and levels of dopamine (DA), gamma-aminobutyric acid GABA, and serotonin 5-HT were assessed. RESULTS Van prolonged seizure manifestations and improved electroencephalogram (EEG)criteriain conjunction with 100 mg/kg PTZ once daily. Van administration increased Nrf2/HO-1/NQO1 levels, with subsequent attenuation of malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) levels with elevated glutathione (GSH) levels and intensified superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase activities. Van reduced the gene and protein expression of HMGB1/RAGE/TLR4/NFκB and decreased the levels of inflammatory and apoptotic markers. In addition, Van reduced AChE activity, and elevated glial fibrillary acidic proteins (GFAP) increased neurotransmitter and brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF). CONCLUSION By increasing Nrf2/HO-1/NQO1 levels and downregulating the HMGB1/RAGE/TLR4/ NFκB pathway, Van offered protection in PTZ-kindled mice with subsequent attenuation in lipid peroxidation, upregulation in antioxidant enzyme activities, and reduction in inflammation and apoptosis.

Abstract
Vanillin, one of the most widely used and appreciated flavoring agents worldwide, is the main constituent of vanilla bean extract, obtained from the seed pods of various members belonging to the Orchidaceae family. Due to the great demand in the food confectionery industry, as well as in the perfume industry, medicine, and more, the majority of vanillin used today is produced synthetically, and only less than one percent of the world's vanilla flavoring market comes directly from the traditional natural sources. The increasing global demand for vanillin requires alternative and overall sustainable new production methods, and the recovery from biobased polymers, like lignin, is an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical synthesis. The present review provides firstly an overview of the different types of vanillin, followed by a description of the main differences between natural and synthetic vanillin, their preparation, the market of interest, and the authentication issues and the related analytical techniques. Then, the review explores the real potentialities of lignin for vanillin production, presenting firstly the well-assessed classical methods and moving towards the most recent promising approaches through chemical, biotechnological and photocatalytic methodologies, together with the challenges and the principal issues associated with each technique.

Abstract
The demand for natural vanilla extract, and vanillin in particular, by far exceeds the current production, as both the cultivation of vanilla beans and the extraction of vanillin are laborious. For this purpose, most vanillin used today is produced synthetically, contrary to the general trend toward bio-based products. The present study deals with the synthesis of nature-based vanillin, starting with the more accessible rhizomes of the plant Curcuma longa. Besides vanillin, vanillic acid and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde are synthesized that way, which are also found in the natural vanilla bean. The extraction of the curcuminoids and, finally, their conversion to the flavors are performed using visible light and food-grade chemicals only. A binary mixture of ethanol and triacetin, as well as a surfactant-free microemulsion consisting of water, ethanol, and triacetin, are investigated in this context. The results exceed the literature values for Soxhlet extraction of vanilla beans by a factor > 7.

Abstract
The biocatalytic production of fuels and chemicals from plant biomass represents an attractive alternative to fossil fuel-based refineries. In this context, the mining and characterization of novel biocatalysts can promote disruptive innovation opportunities in the field of lignocellulose conversion and valorization. In the present work, we conducted the biochemical and structural characterization of two novel hydroxycinnamic acid catabolic enzymes, isolated from a lignin-degrading microbial consortium, a feruloyl-CoA synthetase, and a feruloyl-CoA hydratase-lyase, named LM-FCS2 and LM-FCHL2, respectively. Besides establishing the homology model structures for novel FCS and FCHL members with unique characteristics, the enzymes presented interesting biochemical features: LM-FCS2 showed stability in alkaline pHs and was able to convert a wide array of p-hydroxycinnamic acids to their respective CoA-thioesters, including sinapic acid; LM-FCHL2 efficiently converted feruloyl-CoA and p-coumaroyl-CoA into vanillin and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, respectively, and could produce vanillin directly from ferulic acid. The coupled reaction of LM-FCS2 and LM-FCHL2 produced vanillin, not only from commercial ferulic acid but also from a crude lignocellulosic hydrolysate. Collectively, this work illuminates the structure and function of two critical enzymes involved in converting ferulic acid into high-value molecules, thus providing valuable concepts applied to the development of plant biomass biorefineries. KEY POINTS: • Comprehensive characterization of feruloyl-CoA synthetase from metagenomic origin. • Novel low-resolution structures of hydroxycinnamate catabolic enzymes. • Production of vanillin via enzymatic reaction using lignocellulosic hydrolysates.

Abstract
Upscaling lignin-based precursor fibre production is an essential step in developing bio-based carbon fibre from renewable feedstock. The main challenge in upscaling of lignin fibre production by melt spinning is its melt behaviour and rheological properties, which differ from common synthetic polymers used in melt spinning. Here, a new approach in melt spinning of lignin, using a spin carrier system for producing bicomponent fibres, has been introduced. An ethanol extracted lignin fraction from LignoBoost process of commercial softwood kraft black liquor was used as feedstock. After additional heat treatment, melt spinning was performed in a pilot-scale spinning unit. For the first time, biodegradable polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was used as a spin carrier to enable the spinning of lignin by improving the required melt strength. PVA-sheath/lignin-core bicomponent fibres were manufactured. Afterwards, PVA was dissolved by washing with water. Pure lignin fibres were stabilized and carbonized, and tensile properties were measured. The measured properties, tensile modulus of 81.1 ± 3.1 GPa and tensile strength of 1039 ± 197 MPa, are higher than the majority of lignin-based carbon fibres reported in the literature. This new approach can significantly improve the melt spinning of lignin and solve problems related to poor spinnability of lignin and results in the production of high-quality lignin-based carbon fibres. This article is part of the theme issue 'Bio-derived and bioinspired sustainable advanced materials for emerging technologies (part 2)'.

Abstract
Vanillin has many applications in industries. Isoeugenol monooxygenase (IEM) can catalyze the oxidation of isoeugenol to vanillin in the presence of oxygen under mild conditions. However, the low thermal stability of IEM limits its practical application in the biosynthesis of natural vanillin. Herein, two rational strategies were combined to improve the thermostability of IEM from Pseudomonas nitroreducens Jin1. Two variants (K83R and K95R) with better thermostability and one mutant (G398A) with higher activity were identified from twenty candidates based on the Surface Residue Replacement method. According to the Consensus Mutagenesis method, one mutant (I352R) with better thermostability and another mutant (L273F) with higher activity were also identified from nine candidates. After combinatorial mutation, a triple mutant K83R/K95R/L273F with the best thermostability and catalytic efficiency was generated. Compared with the wild-type IEM, the thermal inactivation half-lives (t1/2) of K83R/K95R/L273F at 25 °C, 30 °C, and 35 °C increased 2.9-fold, 11.9-fold, and 24.7-fold, respectively. Simultaneously, it also exhibited a 4.8-fold increase in kcat, leading to a 1.2-fold increase in catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km). When the whole cell of K83R/K95R/L273F was applied to the biotransformation of isoeugenol on preparative scale, the vanillin concentration reached 240.1 mM with space-time yield of 109.6 g/L/d, and vanillin was achieved in 77.6% isolated yield and >99% purity.

Abstract
Photocatalytic organic synthesis/conversions and water treatment under visible light are a challenging task to use renewable energy in chemical transformations. In this review a brief overview on the mainly employed visible light photocatalysts and a discussion on the problems and advantages of Vis-light versus UV-light irradiation is reported. Visible light photocatalysts in the photocatalytic conversion of CO2, conversion of acetophenone to phenylethanol, hydrogenation of nitro compounds, oxidation of cyclohexane, synthesis of vanillin and phenol, as well as hydrogen production and water treatment are discussed. Some applications of these photocatalysts in photocatalytic membrane reactors (PMRs) for carrying out organic synthesis, conversion and/or degradation of organic pollutants are reported. The described cases show that PMRs represent a promising green technology that could shift on applications of industrial interest using visible light (from Sun) active photocatalysts.

Abstract
In the present work, dialysis was used to recover vanillin while being produced by partial photocatalytic oxidation of ferulic acid in an aqueous solution at ambient temperature. The relatively high value of the permeate flux through a dense polyether-block amide membrane allowed continuously extracting vanillin from the reacting solution, thus avoiding its successive oxidation. The rate of vanillin formation was improved, compared to other reactor configurations, because intermediate compounds permeated from the reacting solution and did not hinder the reaction, while ferulic acid permeated in the opposite direction to partially replenish the reactor with the substrate. The photocatalytic membrane reactor obtained by the effective coupling of dialysis with the photocatalytic reaction improved the production yield. For instance, with the utilized experimental set up, the total amount of vanillin produced after 5 h in the membrane reactor was more than one-third higher than in the photocatalytic reactor without dialysis. The results obtained with a mathematical model agree with the experimentally observed behavior. The model allowed estimating vanillin diffusivity in the membrane and showed that concentration polarization might limit the process.

The characterization of natural waste sources is the first step on the reutilization process, circular economy, and global sustainability. In this work, the aromatic composition and bioactive compounds related to beneficial health effects from cork stoppers and cork by-products were assessed in order to add value to these wastes. Twenty-three aromatic compounds with industrial interest were quantified by gas chromatography coupled mass spectrometry GC–MS in both samples. Vanillins and volatile phenols were the most abundant aromatic families. Other aromatic compounds, such as aldehydes, lactones, terpenols, and alcohols, were also determined. Furthermore, the phenolic composition and the antioxidant activity were also evaluated. Overall, extracts showed high aromatic and antioxidant potential to be further used in different industrial fields. The recovery of these valuable compounds from cork stoppers and cork by-products helps to reuse them in agricultural, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, or food industries.

Abstract
The dye and pigment manufacturing industry is one of the most polluting in the world. Each year, over one million tons of petrochemical colorants are produced globally, the synthesis of which generates a large amount of waste. Naturally occurring, plant-based dyes, on the other hand, are resource intensive to produce (land, water, energy), and are generally less effective as colorants. Between these two extremes would be synthetic dyes that are fully sourced from biomass-derived intermediates. The present work describes the synthesis of such compounds, containing strong chromophores that lead to bright colors in the yellow to red region of the visible spectrum. The study was originally motivated by an early report of an unidentified halomethylfurfural derivative which resulted from hydrolysis in the presence of barium carbonate, now characterized as a butenolide of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF). The method has been generalized for the synthesis of dyes from other biobased platform molecules, and a mechanism is proposed.
