[PMID: 38154285 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138273] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023]
Abstract
A simple and reliable HPLC method was developed for quantification of chondroitin sulfate (CS). The procedure is based on precolumn hydrolysis of CS to liberate galactosamine and subsequent derivatization with 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate. Hydrolysis and derivatization conditions were optimized. A linear correlation coefficient of 0.9999 was calculated within the range of 10-1500 μg/mL from the standard curve. The method produces good precision and good accuracy (100.75 % recovery). An advantage over other common methods is its ability to quantify CS of all molecular weights and structures, as evidenced by the determination of CS fractions with narrow molecular weight distributions obtained through depolymerization by different methods, while enzymatic HPLC was proven to be infeasible. Extraction recoveries of CS from monosaccharide mixed samples were > 93 %. The reliability was also validated by a small difference (-1.95 % to 4.12 %) relative to enzymatic HPLC results in analysing representative CS samples of different animal origins and suppliers.

Schena T, von Mühlen C. Chromatographic speed classification for liquid chromatography using average theoretical peak time (ATPT). Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1287:342092. [PMID: 38182344 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.342092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 11/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of analytical techniques in the field of liquid chromatography has brought new frontiers in performance and analytical speed for the technique. The proper evaluation of the analytical boundaries achieved with those developments was not addressed in the literature, since different liquid chromatography (LC) techniques have not yet received any classification regarding their chromatographic speed. Defining chromatographic analysis speed based simply on analysis time is an outdated concept since it is sample and analyte-dependent. In this context, the application of the Average Theoretical Peak Time concept (ATPT) is proposed as a unified metric for chromatographic speed classification. RESULTS This metric was evaluated using PCA analysis in a group of more than 50 publications, which generated the classification of LC methods in normal, high, hyper, and ultra-high-speed separations using ATPT. Normal speed (ATPT values greater than 18000 ms/peak) was found in HPLC, nano-LC, SFC, and CEC methods. Therefore, high-speed methods (ATPT values between 4000 and 18000 ms/peak) were found in UHPLC techniques, while LC × LC methods presented higher ATPT values between 1000 and 4000 ms/peak being classified as hyper-speed separations. ATPT can also be used as an optimization parameter, since older methods show higher ATPT values, while recent published papers show lower values of this metric. This behavior is justified due to the improvement of the LC methods over the years. SIGNIFICANCE This work fulfills the gap in chromatographic definitions and metrics, regarding analytical speed in one-dimensional and multidimensional liquid chromatographic techniques and shows that ATPT metrics is a robust parameter that can be used to classify the separation speed as well as a metric to evaluate the LC Method optimization. It also corrects the historical application of separation time as a metric for chromatographic speed.

Abstract
During the last decade, advances have been made in nanotechnology using nanomaterials, leading to improvements in their performance. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been widely used in the field of sensor analysis and are also combined with certain materials to obtain the desired characteristics. AuNPs are commonly used as colorimetric sensors in detection methods. In developing an ideal sensor, there are certain characteristics that must be met such as selectivity, sensitivity, accuracy, precision, and linearity, among others. Various methods for the synthesis of AuNPs and conjugation with other components have been carried out in order to obtain good characteristics for their application. AuNPs can be applied in the detection of both heavy metals and biological molecules. This review aimed at observing the role of AuNPs in its application. The synthesis of AuNPs for sensors will also be revealed, along with their characteristics suitable for this role. In the application method, the size and shape of the particles must be considered. AuNPs used in heavy metal detection have a particle size of around 15-50 nm; in the detection of biological molecules, the particle size of AuNPs used is 6-35 nm whereas in pharmaceutical compounds for cancer treatment and the detection of other drugs, the particle size used is 12-30 nm. The particle sizes did not correlate with the type of molecules regardless of whether it was a heavy metal, biological molecule, or pharmaceutical compound but depended on the properties of the molecule itself. In general, the best morphology for application in the detection process is a spherical shape to obtain good sensitivity and selectivity based on previous studies. Functionalization of AuNPs with conjugates/receptors can be carried out to increase the stability, sensitivity, selectivity, solubility, and plays a role in detecting biological compounds through conjugating AuNPs with biological molecules.

The investigation of batch-to-batch variabilities in the composition of isolates from fish and mammalian species using different protocols. Food Res Int 2023; 169:112798. [PMID: 37254382 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2022] [Revised: 03/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate batch-to-batch inconsistencies in the processing of pig and fish collagen isolates processed using two protocols that differed in terms of the acetic acid concentrations applied and the pre- and post-extraction steps, and which were previously tested in our laboratory with the intention of preserving the biological structures and functions of the collagen isolates for biomedical purposes. Both the major and minor components such as the amino acids, lipids, water, glycosaminoglycan and ash contents and elemental content, as well as the structure and morphology of the raw sources and the resulting batches of isolates were subsequently examined in detail applying standardized analytical methods including high perfomance liquid chromatography, ultraviolet-visible and infrared spectrometry, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, energy dispersive spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. All the fish isolates provided severalfold higher yields (8-45 wt%) than did the pig isolates (3-9 wt%). In addition, the variability of the fish isolate yields (the coefficient of variation for processing A: 16.4-32.9 % and B: 6.8-17.4 %) was significantly lower (p ≤ 0.05, n = 5) than that of the pig isolates (A: 27.7-69.8 %; B: 35.3-87.9 %). In general, the fish skin batches had significantly higher protein contents (˃60 wt%) and lower lipid contents (<10 wt%) than the pig skin batches (<55 wt% protein and up to 66 wt% lipid). In addition, the fish skin batches did not differ significantly in terms of their composition applying the same processing method, whereas the pig skin batches exhibited considerable variations in terms of their compositions, particularly regarding the protein and lipid contents. It can be stated that, concerning the fish isolates, processing B was, in most cases, slightly more efficient and reproducible than processing A. However, concerning the pig isolates, although processing A appeared to be more efficient than processing B in terms of the yield, it resulted in the production of isolates that contained a certain level of contaminants. The study provides a comprehensive discussion on the suitability of the processing protocol in terms of producing batches of reproducible quality according to the specific type of biomaterial processed from different animal species.

Abstract
Scaffolds made of degradable polymers, such as collagen, polyesters or polysaccharides, are promising matrices for fabrication of bioartificial vascular grafts or patches. In this study, collagen isolated from porcine skin was processed into a gel, reinforced with collagen particles and with incorporated adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs). The cell-material constructs were then incubated in a DMEM medium with 2% of FS (DMEM_part), with added polyvinylalcohol nanofibers (PVA_part sample), and for ASCs differentiation towards smooth muscle cells (SMCs), the medium was supplemented either with human platelet lysate released from PVA nanofibers (PVA_PL_part) or with TGF-β1 + BMP-4 (TGF + BMP_part). The constructs were further endothelialised with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (ECs). The immunofluorescence staining of alpha-actin and calponin, and von Willebrand factor, was performed. The proteins involved in cell differentiation, the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, and ECM remodelling proteins were evaluated by mass spectrometry on day 12 of culture. Mechanical properties of the gels with ASCs were measured via an unconfined compression test on day 5. Gels evinced limited planar shrinkage, but it was higher in endothelialised TGF + BMP_part gel. Both PVA_PL_part samples and TGF + BMP_part samples supported ASC growth and differentiation towards SMCs, but only PVA_PL_part supported homogeneous endothelialisation. Young modulus of elasticity increased in all samples compared to day 0, and PVA_PL_part gel evinced a slightly higher ratio of elastic energy. The results suggest that PVA_PL_part collagen construct has the highest potential to remodel into a functional vascular wall.
