Abstract
Recently, more and more attention has been paid to the construction of stimulus-responsive aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs) for the extraction and separation of various bioactive compounds. In this work, an ATPS based on a pH-responsive polymeric deep eutectic solvent (PDES) and phosphate salt was constructed for the first time. The pH-response properties of the PDES were studied through a series of experiments. Additionally, the phase formation mechanism was studied through experiments and simulations. This novel PDES-based ATPS was used to extract aromatic amino acids (AAAs). The extraction efficiencies for tyrosine (Tyr), phenylalanine (Phe), and tryptophan (Trp) reached 95.25%, 99.05%, and 99.10%, respectively. By adjusting pH, PDES was recycled and reused. This novel and recyclable PDES-based ATPS could be an efficient method for the extraction of AAAs, which could also be applied used as a versatile and sustainable method for the extraction of other bioactive compounds in the future.

Abstract
The production of 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO), a dialcohol of great interest for the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industry, through the fermentation of biomass, is a sustainable process strategic position for countries with abundant biomass generated by the agribusiness. However, the downstream process of 2,3-BDO is onerous due to the complexity of fermentation broth and the physical-chemical characteristics of the 2,3-BDO. This study investigated the feasibility of 2,3-BDO extraction from model aqueous solutions using aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS). A central composite rotational design (CCRD) was employed to evaluate different ATPS compositions and the influences on the 2,3-BDO recovery and partition coefficient. The polyethylene glycol (PEG) and different concentrations of sodium citrate, ammonium sulfate, and potassium phosphate were investigated. The concentration of salt and PEG in the ATPS was identified as the most significant factors influencing the recovery and partition coefficient of 2,3-BDO. The recovery of 2,3-BDO reached 94.5% and was obtained when the system was composed of 36.22% (w/w) of PEG 4000 and 4.47% (w/w) of potassium phosphate. The results indicate that ATPS based on PEG-salt has a high potential for industrial application, using mild conditions and a simple process for recovering and purifying the 2,3-BDO produced from microbiological synthesis.

Enantioselective liquid-liquid extraction of tryptophan enantiomers by a recyclable aqueous biphasic system based on stimuli-responsive polymers. J Chromatogr A 2021; 1656:462532. [PMID: 34525428 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2021.462532] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2021] [Revised: 08/30/2021] [Accepted: 08/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
The hydrophobic organic solvents/water biphasic system had been always used in the traditional enantioselective liquid-liquid extraction (ELLE). In recent years, aqueous biphasic systems (ABSs) are considered as a promising method used in the ELLE. In the present work, a recyclable ABS composed of a temperature-responsive polymer poly(MAH-β-CD-co-NIPAAm) (PN-CD) and a pH-responsive polymer poly(AA-DMAEMA-BMA) (PADB) was employed in the enantioseparation of tryptophan enantiomers. The polymer PN-CD acted as not only the phase-forming component but also the chiral selector, which can be recycled by changing the temperature. The polymer PADB can be used as the phase-forming component, which can also be recycled by adjusting the pH. The phase behaviors of this PN-CD/PADB ABS had been studied. The influencing parameters were studied for this chiral separation process, including the polymer concentration, initial tryptophan concentration, extraction temperature, and system pH. The maximum separation factor (α) of 1.42 was obtained by one-step extraction under the optimal conditions. Meanwhile, the distribution coefficients of L-tryptophan (L-Trp) and D-tryptophan (D-Trp) were 2.79 and 1.96, respectively. This study develops a green and sustainable strategy for enantioseparation by using the ELLE.

Abstract
Aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) have the advantages of environmentally friendly, high mass transfer efficiency, and mild extraction conditions. However, it is difficult to recycle these polymers, which limits the large-scale application of ATPS. In this study, a novel recyclable ATPS was constructed with thermo-responsive polymer PN and pH-responsive polymer PADB4.78 for the partition of tea saponin. PN represents poly-(N-isopropylacrylamide), and PADB4.78 represents poly-(acrylic acid-dimethylamine ethyl methacrylate-butyl methacrylate), where 4.78 in the subscript indicate the isoelectric point of the polymer. The recoveries of PN and PADB4.78 were 95.36% and 93.48%, respectively, after two cycles. Meanwhile, the phase formation mechanism of ATPS was studied by surface tension and low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR). The effects of polymer concentration, pH, temperature, types and concentrations of salt were investigated on tea saponin partition. In the 1.5% (w/v) PN/3.5% (w/v) PADB4.78 ATPS, the optimal partition coefficient (K) of crude tea saponin were 0.15 in the presence of 1.5 mM KCl at pH 7.6 and 25 °C while the extraction recovery (ERb) reached 92.13%. The K and ERb of tea saponin from tea seeds were 0.12 and 94.50% with 7.5 mM LiBr at pH 8.0 and 25 °C, respectively.

Abstract
Thermoresponsive poly(2-(N-alkylacrylamide) ethyl acetate)s with different N-alkyl groups, including poly(2-(N-methylacrylamide) ethyl acetate) (PNMAAEA), poly(2-(N-ethylacrylamide) ethyl acetate) (PNEAAEA), and poly(2-(N-propylacrylamide) ethyl acetate) (PNPAAEA), as well as poly(N-acetoxylethylacrylamide) (PNAEAA), were synthesized by solution RAFT polymerization. Unexpectedly, it was found that there are induction periods in the RAFT polymerization of these monomers, and the induction time correlates with the length of the N-alkyl groups in the monomers and follows the order of NAEAA < NMAAEA < NEAAEA < NPAAEA. The solubility of poly(2-(N-alkylacrylamide) ethyl acetate)s in water is also firmly dependent on the length of the N-alkyl groups. PNPAAEA including the largest N-propyl group is insoluble in water, whereas PNMAAEA and PNEAAEA are thermoresponsive in water and undergo the reversible soluble-to-insoluble transition at a critical solution temperature. The cloud point temperature (Tcp) of the thermoresponsive polymers is in the order of PNEAAEA < PNAEAA < PNMAAEA. The parameters affecting the Tcp of thermoresponsive polymers, e.g., degree of polymerization (DP), polymer concentration, salt, urea, and phenol, are investigated. Thermoresponsive PNMAAEA-b-PNEAAEA block copolymer and PNMAAEA-co-PNEAAEA random copolymers with different PNMAAEA and/or PNEAAEA fractions are synthesized, and their thermoresponse is checked.
