Abstract
Natural ceramide, a biologically active compound present in plants, has been used widely in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries. Abundant ceramide has been detected in sewage sludge, which has inspired the idea to recycle ceramide from it. Therefore, the methods of extracting, purifying, and detecting ceramides from plants were reviewed, with the aim to establish methods to get condensed ceramide from sludge. Ceramide extraction methods include traditional methods (maceration, reflux, and Soxhlet extraction) and green technologies (ultrasound-assisted, microwave-assisted, and supercritical fluid extraction). In the past two decades, more than 70% of the articles have used traditional methods. However, green extraction methods are gradually improved and showed high extraction efficiency with lower solvent consumed. The preferred technique for ceramide purification is chromatography. Common solvent systems include chloroform-methanol, n-hexane-ethyl acetate, petroleum ether-ethyl acetate, and petroleum ether-acetone. For structural determination of ceramide, infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry are used in combination. Among quantitative analysis methods for ceramide, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was the most accurate. This review concludes that with our prilemenary experiment results it is feasible to apply the plant "extraction + purification" process of ceramide to sludge, but more optimization need to be performed to get better results.

Abstract
The chemical derivatization of multiple lipid classes was developed using benzoyl chloride as a nonhazardous derivatization agent at ambient conditions. The derivatization procedure was optimized with standards for 4 nonpolar and 8 polar lipid classes and measured by reversed-phase ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The derivatization and nonderivatization approaches were compared on the basis of the calibration curves of 22 internal standards from 12 lipid classes. The new method decreased the limit of detection 9-fold for monoacylglycerols (0.9-1.0 nmol/mL), 6.5-fold for sphingoid base (0.2 nmol/mL), and 3-fold for diacylglycerols (0.9 nmol/mL). The sensitivity expressed by the ratio of calibration slopes was increased 2- to 10-fold for almost all investigated lipid classes and even more than 100-fold for monoacylglycerols. Moreover, the benzoylation reaction produces a more stable derivative of cholesterol in comparison to the easily in-source fragmented nonderivatized form and enabled the detection of fatty acids in a positive ion mode, which does not require polarity switching as for the nonderivatized form. The intralaboratory comparison with an additional operator without previous derivatization experiences shows the simplicity, robustness, and reproducibility. The stability of the derivatives was determined by periodical measurements during a one month period and five freeze/thaw cycles. The fully optimized derivatization method was applied to human plasma, which allows the detection of 169 lipid species from 11 lipid classes using the high confidence level of identification in reversed-phase (RP)-ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC)/mass spectrometry (MS). Generally, we detected more lipid species for monoacylglycerols, diacylglycerols, and sphingoid bases in comparison with previously reported papers without the derivatization.

Development of an innovative phytosterol derivatization method to improve the HPLC-DAD analysis and the ESI-MS detection of plant sterols/stanols. Food Res Int 2020; 131:108998. [PMID: 32247468 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2020.108998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2019] [Revised: 01/07/2020] [Accepted: 01/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
HPLC analyses of phytosterols are associated with the issues of sensitivity due to their high lipophilicity and their lack of chromophore. These problems could be solved through chemical modifications of plant sterols/stanols structures. Therefore, the present study aims to develop a new method for phytosterols derivatization. This method was performed using dansyl chloride (4 mg ml-1) as derivatizing agent and different reaction parameters have been optimized. The highest yields of phytosterol derivatization were obtained with 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) as catalyst at a concentration of 8 mg ml-1 and dichloromethane as reaction solvent. In addition, 40 ˚C was the best reaction temperature for 30 min as the best reaction time. This derivatization method presented a high reproducibility (%RSD = 1.2-2.7%) and a good linearity (R2 = 0.9982-0.9999). The UV absorption intensities after derivatization showed a 23-fold increment for plant sterols and a 400-fold increment for plant stanols. Moreover, this derivatization method allowed the use of high and more selective wavelengths of detection and improved the chromatographic separation of phytosterols. Furthermore, the developed method allowed the ESI-MS ionization and analysis of phytosterols. This method can therefore contribute to the improvement of the HPLC analyses of plant sterols/stanols.

Abstract
Acid hydrolysis and alkaline saponification were incorporated into a microwave-assisted extraction process for the simultaneous extraction of free and conjugated phytosterols from tobacco. The crude extract of the microwave-assisted extraction was purified by C18 solid-phase extraction and then determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Phytosterols of cholesterol, ergosterol, stigmasterol, campesterol, and β-sitosterol were determined by chromatographic quantification. The multiple parameters of microwave-assisted extraction were optimized by a uniform design method. The optimal ratio of extraction ethanol solvent to tobacco mass was 30 mL/g. The microwave-assisted extraction acid hydrolysis was carried out in sulfuric acid medium by heating for 10 min at 55°C. The microwave-assisted extraction alkaline saponification was performed after adding excessive sodium hydroxide by heating another 10 min. The repeatability of the proposed method was acceptable with recoveries from 69.68 to 88.17% for the phytosterols. Five target phytosterols were all found in the tobacco samples, and the contents were significantly different in samples from different producing areas.
