Biomolecules 2023; 13:1780. [PMID: 38136650 PMCID: PMC10742054 DOI: 10.3390/biom13121780] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 12/02/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
DAF-FM DA is widely used as a live staining compound to show the presence of nitric oxide (NO) in cells. Applying this stain to live zebrafish embryos is known to indicate early centers of bone formation, but the precise (cellular) location of the signal has hitherto not been revealed. Using sections of zebrafish embryos live-stained with DAF-FM DA, we could confirm that the fluorescent signals were predominantly located in areas of ongoing bone formation. Signals were observed in the bone and tooth matrix, in the notochord sheath, as well as in the bulbus arteriosus. Surprisingly, however, they were exclusively extracellular, even after very short staining times. Von Kossa and Alizarin red S staining to reveal mineral deposits showed that DAF-FM DA stains both the mineralized and non-mineralized bone matrix (osteoid), excluding that DAF-FM DA binds non-specifically to calcified structures. The importance of NO in bone formation by osteoblasts is nevertheless undisputed, as shown by the absence of bone structures after the inhibition of NOS enzymes that catalyze the formation of NO. In conclusion, in zebrafish skeletal biology, DAF-FM DA is appropriate to reveal bone formation in vivo, independent of mineralization of the bone matrix, but it does not demonstrate intracellular NO.

Abstract
Inorganic nitrate provided by either nitrate salts or food supplements may improve cardiometabolic health. However, current methods to assess dietary nitrate, nitrite and nitrosamine consumption are inadequate. The purpose of this study was to develop a reference database to estimate the levels of nitrate, nitrite and nitrosamines in the global food supply. A systematic literature search was undertaken; of the 5,747 articles screened, 448 met the inclusion criteria. The final database included data for 1,980 food and beverages from 65 different countries. There were 5,105 unique records for nitrate, 2,707 for nitrite, and 954 for nitrosamine. For ease of use, data were sorted into 12 categories; regarding nitrate and nitrite concentrations in food and beverages, 'vegetables and herbs' were most reported in the literature (n = 3,268 and n = 1,200, respectively). For nitrosamines, 'protein foods of animal origin' were most reported (n = 398 records). This database will allow researchers and practitioners to confidently estimate dietary intake of nitrate, nitrite and nitrosamines. When paired with health data, our database can be used to investigate associations between nitrate intake and health outcomes, and/or exercise performance and could support the development of key dietary nitrate intake guidelines.

Abstract
Different chemical states of nitrogen are present in many freshwater and marine ecosystems, and nitrite ions are one of the most toxic water-soluble nitrogen species. Developing an effective and convenient sensing method to constantly detect the concentration of nitrite has become a wide concern. Here, a novel near-infrared fluorescent probe (AAC) was designed and synthesized via the "covalent assembly" principle, showing excellent selectivity and high sensitivity for nitrite. A new nitrite-quantitative method was established with the help of AAC, and the detection limit of nitrite using the new method was as low as 6.7 nM. AAC was successfully applied for the quantitative detection of nitrite in real-world environmental and food samples (including river water and Chinese sauerkraut), and the detection results were essentially identical to the results obtained from the traditional Griess assay. Moreover, AAC was successfully applied for tracking nitrite in Escherichia coli by fluorescence imaging. Since nitrite can have devastating effects, the method established with AAC allowed us to "see" effectively about the water quality, food quality, etc.

Abstract
A straightforward approach to the fabrication of intrinsically excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT)-fluorescent polymer nanoparticles (e-PNPs) was developed. The e-PNPs were obtained by self-assembly of the homopolymers derived from 4-aminosalicylic acid in aqueous solution. By incorporating ESIPT modules into polymer nanoparticles, the ESIPT reaction can be endowed with moderate hydrophobic micro-environment by nanoparticle scaffolds, eliciting enhanced ESIPT emission. The newly developed e-PNPs exhibit strong tautomeric fluorescence(e-FL), good photostability, low-toxicity and favourable biocompatibility in aqueous solution. Upon the addition of NO2-, the e-FL can be significantly quenched owing to the reaction of NO2- with the amide groups on e-PNPs. From this basis, the fluorescence detection of NO2- was implemented, which showed a linear relationship between 0 nM and 110 nM with a detection limit of 2.3 nM. Furthermore, e-PNPs were used as nanoprobes to monitor the NO2- levels in HeLa cells by fluorescence imaging, demonstrating the ability of discrimination from different concentrations of NO2-. The proposed method can be applied to a wide range of other ESIPT modules to integrate into polymer nanoparticles and offer highly sensitive nanosensing platform for bioanalysis and molecular imaging.

Fluorometric determination of nitrite through its catalytic effect on the oxidation of iodide and subsequent etching of gold nanoclusters by free iodine. Mikrochim Acta 2019; 186:619.

Abstract
A method for sensitive detection of nitrite is presented. It is found that the red fluorescence of gold nanoclusters (with excitation/emission maxima at 365/635 nm) is quenched by traces of iodine via etching. Free iodide is formed by oxidation of iodide by bromate anion under the catalytic effect of nitrite. This catalytic process provides a sensitive means for nitrite detection. Under the optimal conditions, fluorescence linearly dropos in the 10 nM to 0.8 μM nitrite concentration range. The limit of detection is 1.1 nM. This is a few orders of magnitude lower than the maximum concentration allowed by authorities. Graphical abstract Schematic representation of a method for detection of nitrite via a redox reaction. Iodine was produced in the reaction and subsequently quenched the fluorescence from gold nanoclusters by etching their metallic cores, and a sensitive assay for nitrite down to 1.1 nM was developed.

Abstract
Immoderate intake of nitrite (NO2-) is deleterious human health and may result in causing dangerous diseases. In this study, nitrite detection system was successfully fabricated based on a unique diazo-coupling reaction of p‑Aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and phloroglucinol (1, 3, 5‑trihydroxybenzene). Upon the presence of NO2- in an acid medium, p‑Aminobenzoic acid could not only form diazonium ion easily but also couple with p‑Aminobenzoic acid, and results forming yellow water-soluble azo dye that shows maximum absorption at 434 nm. Under the further accurate determination condition, such as acid concentration, amount of reagents and time required, the naked-eye detection of NO2- showed excellent selectivity in compared with some anions. Especially, diazotization and coupling reaction proposed here is very fast and control of pH and temperature are unnecessary. Moreover, the color is stable for several days and Beer's law is obeyed over a wide range. Reliable detection can be made in the range of 0.05 to 1 p.p.m. of nitrite ion. Detection limit was calculated to be 0.024 p.p.m. (0.52 μ M) by UV-visible spectroscopy and 0.05 p.p.m. (1.09 μ M) by naked-eye. By using an electrochemical method, IR, SEM, and 1HNMR, the sensing mechanism can be easily verified. More importantly the proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of nitrite in a real water sample.
