Alternative methods for RuBisCO extraction from sugar beet waste: A comparative approach of ultrasound and high voltage electrical discharge. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 99:106535. [PMID: 37541125 PMCID: PMC10410599 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 08/06/2023]
Abstract
Ultrasound (US) and high voltage electric discharge (HVED) with water as a green solvent represent promising novel non-thermal techniques for protein extraction from sugar beet (Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris var. altissima) leaves. Compared to HVED, US proved to be a better alternative method for total soluble protein extraction with the aim of obtaining high yield of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase enzyme (RuBisCO). Regardless of the solvent temperature, the highest protein yields were observed at 100% amplitude and 9 min treatment time (84.60 ± 3.98 mg/gd.m. with cold and 96.75 ± 4.30 mg/gd.m. with room temperature deionized water). US treatments at 75% amplitude and 9 min treatment time showed the highest abundance of RuBisCO obtained by immunoblotting assay. The highest protein yields recorded among HVED-treated samples were observed at a voltage of 20 kV and a treatment time of 3 min, disregarding the used gas (33.33 ± 1.06 mg/gd.m. with argon and 34.89 ± 1.59 mg/gd.m. with nitrogen as injected gas), while the highest abundance of the RuBisCO among HVED-treated samples was noticed at 25 kV voltage and 3 min treatment time. By optimizing the US and HVED parameters, it is possible to affect the solubility and improve the isolation of RuBisCO, which could then be purified and implemented into new or already existing functional products.

Abstract
The peel from Citrus-sinensis L. is a medicinally significant food waste, and its extract (O-Ext) could be significant against oxidative stresses and skin aging, However, the penetration barriers, instability in formulation, undefined toxicities, and enzymatic activities make the O-Ext difficult to formulate and commercialize. The goal of this study was to evaluate O-Ext against oxidative stress, prepare O-Ext-loaded nano-lipid carriers (O-NLCs), and load them into topical O/W-emulsion (O-NLC-E) to improve O-Ext permeation and its in vivo antiaging effects. TPC, TFC, DPPH activity, and mineral/metal contents of O-Ext were determined via atomic-absorption spectroscopy. For bioactive compounds profiling, GC-MS analysis was carried out. O-NLCs were prepared and tested for physicochemical attributes, while HaCaT and fibroblast cells were used to study permeation and cytotoxicity. The kinetic characteristics of ex vivo permeation through rat skin were established, following the Higuchi model. Following written consent, safety investigations were conducted on human volunteers for three months, where optimized O-NLC-E and B-NLC-E were regularly applied on cheeks. Non-invasive procedures were used to assess the volunteer's skin erythema, TEWL, sebum level, melanin, hydration, pH, elasticity, and pore sizes after specified intervals. The results demonstrated that applying O-NLC-E formulation to the skin of volunteers directed significant antiaging benefits. The study offers nanotechnology-based sustainability approach against skin ageing.

Abstract
The browning on the cut surface is a big problem reducing the quality of fresh-cut taro (FCT), which causes severe postharvest losses and may raise environmental impacts. Citronellal (CA) is a natural compound in several aromatic plants. This study investigated the effects of CA treatments in different concentrations (0.2, 0.5, and 1 mL/L) on the browning of FCT under cold storage at 5°C. The results indicated that low-dose (0.2 mL/L) CA treatment showed best anti-browning effects, reflecting at the maintained L* values but the reduced a*, b* and browning index values by CA treatment during cold storage. A repeated experiment using 0.2 mL/L CA confirmed fine anti-browning effects again. Furthermore, CA (0.2 mL/L) treatment markedly reduced the contents of total phenolic compounds and soluble quinones, restrained the activities of phenylalanine ammonia lyase, peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase, down-regulated the gene expression of 18 browning-related enzymes in FCT. These results together strongly demonstrate the validity of CA on FCT browning prevention. Given that CA is a natural compound existing in plants, low concentration of CA possesses strong anti-browning effects on FCT and also inhibitory effects on pathogens, implying that its application has potentiality to preserve high quality of fresh-cut produce for processing and storage. Moreover, CA treatment significantly decreased malondialdehyde contents and lipoxygenase activity. Correlation analysis indicated that the lipid peroxidation of cell membrane was mostly correlated with FCT browning. The results suggest that membrane lipid peroxidation was a possible reason for FCT browning and CA treatment reduced browning, in part, through alleviating the lipid peroxidation of cell membrane. Overall, our results demonstrate that CA is a novel browning mitigator for FCT under cold storage condition.

Abstract
Context: Hydrosol is a residual product from the steam or hydro distillation process of abundant types of plants. It can be separated from the essential oil mixture by the liquid-liquid extraction process. Hydrosols from a variety of plants are becoming increasingly popular in cosmetology, aromatherapy, traditional pharmacy, and food sector; thus, their prospective applications should be further explored. Evidence Acquisition: Hydrosol may generally contain chemicals such as alcohol, ketone, and ester. Based on the previous studies using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) analysis, linalool, carvacrol, and α-terpineol are the major chemicals present in plant hydrosol. Results: The chemical composition is either showing antimicrobial or antioxidant properties. The antioxidant properties are important in cosmeceutical products to prevent oxidation of the cosmetic ingredients, while the antimicrobial properties maintain the quality of the cosmetics. Hitherto, hydrosol usage is still unfamiliar in the market, but several cosmetic products have been formulated using hydrosol, such as shampoo, soap, and conditioner. Conclusions: This work will review the hydrosol compound from plants, extraction methods, chemical composition, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities, and the potential of hydrosol in cosmeceutical application.

Abstract
Even though food by-products have many negative financial and environmental impacts, they contain a considerable quantity of precious bioactive compounds such as polyphenols. The recovery of these compounds from food wastes could diminish their adverse effects in different aspects. For doing this, various nonthermal and conventional methods are used. Since conventional extraction methods may cause plenty of problems, due to their heat production and extreme need for energy and solvent, many novel technologies such as microwave, ultrasound, cold plasma, pulsed electric field, pressurized liquid, and ohmic heating technology have been regarded as alternatives assisting the extraction process. This paper highlights the competence of mild technologies in the recovery of polyphenols from food by-products, the effect of these technologies on polyphenol oxidase, and the application of the recovered polyphenols in the food industry.

Abstract
Fresh fruits and vegetable products are easily perishable during postharvest handling due to enzymatic browning reactions. This phenomenon has contributed to a significant loss of food quality and appearance. Thus, a safe and effective alternative method from natural sources is needed to tackle enzymatic browning prevention. The capabilities of natural anti-browning agents derived from plant- and animal-based resources in inhibiting enzymatic activity have been demonstrated in the literature. Some also possess strong antioxidants properties. This review aims to summarize a recent investigation regarding the use of natural anti-browning extracts from different sources for controlling the browning. The potential applications of genome-editing in preventing browning activity and improving postharvest quality is also discussed. Moreover, the patents on the anti-browning extract from natural sources is also presented in this review. The information reviewed here could provide new insights, contributing to the development of natural anti-browning extracts and genome-editing techniques for the prevention of food browning.

Abstract
Citrus fruits are well known for their medicinal and therapeutic potential due to the presence of immense bioactive components. With the enormous consumption of citrus juice, citrus processing industries are focused on the production of juice but at the same time, a large amount of waste is produced mainly in the form of peel, seeds, pomace, and wastewater. This waste left after processing leads to environmental pollution and health-related hazards. However, it could be exploited for the recovery of essential oils, pectin, nutraceuticals, macro and micronutrients, ethanol, and biofuel generation. In view of the importance and health benefits of bioactive compounds found in citrus waste, the present review summarizes the recent work done on the citrus fruit waste valorization for recovery of value-added compounds leading to zero wastage. Therefore, instead of calling it waste, these could be a good resource of significant valuable components, in this way encouraging the zero-waste theory.

Abstract
Enzymatic browning is the second largest cause of quality loss in fruits, vegetables, and seafood. Methods to prevent browning are the subject of great research interest in the field of Food Science and Technology. Numerous strategies for inhibiting enzymatic browning have been proposed in literature. Recent research is focused on finding alternative anti-browning agents to synthetics such as sulfites. Amongst natural antioxidants, Maillard reaction products (MRPs) have proven to be effective. Although reviews have been published on the antioxidant and anti-browning activity of MRPs, none of these focused solely on enzymatic browning inhibition mechanism of MRPs generated via heated plant extracts. Therefore, this review explores the common factors associated with the Maillard reaction (temperature, time, and concentration) and enzymatic browning inhibition (enzyme, substrate and reaction time) in order to confirm the activity and presence of MRPs in heated plant extracts. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Chemical food additives applied in prevention of enzymatic browning are subjected to scrutiny. Therefore, alternative natural compounds are sought after. Plant extracts have been applied, however, they tend to impart their characteristic natural flavor into the product. Heating of these plant extracts have been proven to reduce the "planty, herby" flavors, whilst producing Maillard reaction. Maillard reaction products are known to exhibit anti-browning activity, and they are a cheap alternative to these chemical inhibitors. Therefore, these can be applied as potential anti-browning agents in food products.

Abstract
Soybean oil has been supplemented with 10% (w/w) of ginger and turmeric powders derived from commercial products (GC—commercial ginger and TC—commercial turmeric), freeze-dried rhizomes (freeze-dried ginger (GR) and freeze-dried turmeric rhizome—TR) and peels (freeze-dried ginger peel (GP) and freeze-dried turmeric peel—TP) for developing a functional seasoning with great lipid stability for human consumption. The exhausted ginger and turmeric powders were also recovered and recycled two times to promote a more sustainable process. The antioxidant activity and oxidative stability of oil samples were evaluated respectively by spectrophotometric and Rancimat methods. Folin–Ciocalteu assay and HPLC analysis were also performed to quantify total polyphenols, ginger-derived 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol, and turmeric-derived curcumin. Their antioxidant activity as well as oxidative stability, which non-linearly decreased over cycles because of a strongly reduced phenolic extractability, linearly increased with increasing phenolic yields. Hence, ginger and turmeric can be proposed as healthy spices containing bioactive compounds to control lipid oxidation and improve oil stability. Moreover, the valorization of peels as eco-friendly source of natural antioxidants is a valid strategy for providing added-value to these agro-food wastes.

Abstract
Hydrosols are byproducts produced by steam distillation of aromatic plant materials. Previous studies reported hydrosols owned effectively inhibitory effects on microbials, but few focused on the effects in reducing enzymatic browning of fresh-cut products. Here, application of citronella hydrosol (CH) and rose hydrosol (RH) obviously reduced values of L*, a* and b* in surfaces of fresh-cut taros, suggesting these hydrosols could reduce browning severity. About 500 ml/L of RH and CH reduced total phenol contents, and activities of phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), peroxidase (POD) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO), suggesting hydrosols suppressed browning development by reducing PAL, POD and PPO activities. Studies reported terpenoids had potential inhibition on PPO activity. Chemical composition analysis showed that RH and CH extracts contained abundant terpenoids. These imply that terpenoids contained in two hydrosols might have contributed to the reduction of enzyme activity. This study indicates that hydrosols might be promising natural anti-browning agents for fresh-cut foods. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Hydrosols are the byproducts of essential oil from steam distillation. The work described here shows that application of citronella and rose hydrosols significantly reduced the browning of fresh-cut taros. Moreover, aromatic hydrosols also present inhibitory activity against microorganisms and are generally considered safe for human health. These suggested that aromatic hydrosols are the natural and useful anti-browning agents to preserve the quality of fresh cut foods, and can be well integrated into industrial procedures.

Abstract
Hydrosol volatiles from flowers of ten Paeonia × suffruticosa Andr. cultivars were analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and GC-flame ionisation detector (GC-FID) for the first time. Fifty components were identified representing 97.6-99.8% of total composition, in which oxygenated compounds (87.4-99.8%) predominated. Hydrosol volatiles of five and two cultivars presented chemotypes of 2-phenylethanol (48.0-79.5%) and 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene (72.8%, 50.2%), respectively. Hydrosol volatiles of 'XYTH' rich in β-citronellol (57.2%) probably represented a newly defined chemotype with β-citronellol percentage over 50%. 'GFCC' hydrosol volatiles presented a balanced profile with 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene (31.9%), β-citronellol (31.5%) and 2-phenylethanol (23.0%). 'LHZL' hydrosol volatiles were distinct from others due to occurrence of 6,9-heptadecadiene (2.0%), 2-heptanol (1.8%), pentadecane (1.5%), (Z)-3-nonen-1-ol (1.1%) and geraniol (15.7%). Chemotype characterisation of P. × suffruticosa Andr. hydrosols was of significance considering numerous cultivars of the species and potential applications of the hydrosols.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
Subcritical water extraction technique is considered as an environmentally extraction technique. The aim of this study was to compare the different characteristics of water extract and subcritical water extract of Helicteres isora L.
Materials and Methods
Water extraction was performed under the following conditions: 25°C, 24 h, and solid-to-water ratio 1:30. Subcritical water extract was carried out under specific conditions (pressure = 10 bar, temperature = 160°C, solid-to-water ratio = 1: 30, time = 30 min). Chemical composition analysis was performed using GC–Mass chromatography. Anti-biofilm activity in the terms of anti-attach and removal of biofilm were assessed using the ELISA reader method and reading absorbance at 570 nm. Anti-microbial activity against Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, and Bacillus subtilis was investigated by measurement of inhibitory zone diameter. Anti-enzymatic and antioxidant properties were also assessed.
Results
The results of GC–Mass analysis showed some components extracted in subcritical method which were absent in water extract such as octadecanoic acid, hexadecanoic acid, and berberin. Antioxidant activity of the two tested extracts revealed that subcritical water extract had more antioxidant capacity than water extract (P ≤ 0.05). The two tested extracts exhibited anti-enzymatic activity against polyphenol oxidase enzyme with better performance of subcritical water extract. Anti-biofilm activity of the two extracts implies that, in the case of preventing biofilm formation, both extracts had similar efficiency but in the removal of biofilm, subcritical water extract showed better performance. Both extracts had anti-microbial activity against B. cereus, S. aureus, S. saprophyticus, and B. subtilis with better performance of subcritical water extract. Anti-enzymatic assay also showed similar results.
Conclusions
Subcritical water extract of H. isora showed more antioxidant activity as well as anti-biofilm, anti-bacterial, and anti-enzymatic activity rather than ordinary water extract.

Abstract
The antioxidant activity of ginger and turmeric powders derived from freeze-dried rhizomes and peels as well as commercial spices has been evaluated by two spectrophotometric assays based on electron transfer such as DPPH and FRAP. The phenolic characterization has been also carried out by detecting total polyphenols through Folin-Ciocalteu method and HPLC analysing 6-gingerol and curcumin. Ginger and turmeric peels showed greater antioxidant activity than commercial powders because of their higher phenolic yields. Hence, ginger and turmeric peels can be considered a rich source of phytochemicals which contribute to the antioxidant effects of these agro-food wastes.
