Sulfonamide Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances Can Impact Microorganisms Used in Aromatic Hydrocarbon and Trichloroethene Bioremediation. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 2024; 58:8792-8802. [PMID: 38719742 PMCID: PMC11112735 DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.3c09715] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) from aqueous film forming foams (AFFFs) can hinder bioremediation of co-contaminants such as trichloroethene (TCE) and benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX). Anaerobic dechlorination can require bioaugmentation of Dehalococcoides, and for BTEX, oxygen is often sparged to stimulate in situ aerobic biodegradation. We tested PFAS inhibition to TCE and BTEX bioremediation by exposing an anaerobic TCE-dechlorinating coculture, an aerobic BTEX-degrading enrichment culture, and an anaerobic toluene-degrading enrichment culture to n-dimethyl perfluorohexane sulfonamido amine (AmPr-FHxSA), perfluorohexane sulfonamide (FHxSA), perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS), or nonfluorinated surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The anaerobic TCE-dechlorinating coculture was resistant to individual PFAS exposures but was inhibited by >1000× diluted AFFF. FHxSA and AmPr-FHxSA inhibited the aerobic BTEX-degrading enrichment. The anaerobic toluene-degrading enrichment was not inhibited by AFFF or individual PFASs. Increases in amino acids in the anaerobic TCE-dechlorinating coculture compared to the control indicated stress response, whereas the BTEX culture exhibited lower concentrations of all amino acids upon exposure to most surfactants (both fluorinated and nonfluorinated) compared to the control. These data suggest the main mechanisms of microbial toxicity are related to interactions with cell membrane synthesis as well as protein stress signaling.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA): a comprehensive review of dietary sources, enrichment technologies, processing effects, health benefits, and its applications. Crit Rev Food Sci Nutr 2023:1-23. [PMID: 37096548 DOI: 10.1080/10408398.2023.2204373] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 04/26/2023]
Abstract
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a naturally occurring potential bioactive compound present in plants, microorganisms, animals, and humans. Especially, as a main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, GABA possesses a broad spectrum of promising bioactivities. Thus, functional foods enriched with GABA have been widely sought after by consumers. However, the GABA levels in natural foods are usually low, which cannot meet people's demand for health effects. With the increasing public awareness on the food securities and naturally occurring processes, using enrichment technologies to elevate the GABA contents in foods instead of exogenous addition can enhance the acceptability of health-conscious consumers. Herein, this review provides a comprehensive insight on the dietary sources, enrichment technologies, processing effects of GABA, and its applications in food industry. Furthermore, the various health benefits of GABA-enriched foods, mainly including neuroprotection, anti-insomnia, anti-depression, anti-hypertensive, anti-diabetes, and anti-inflammatory are also summarized. The main challenges for future research on GABA are related to exploring high GABA producing strains, enhancing the stability of GABA during storage, and developing emerging enrichment technologies without affecting food quality and other active ingredients. A better understanding of GABA may introduce new windows for its application in developing functional foods.

Abstract
The cardueae are a common species in the Mediterranean area where they grow spontaneously and are traditionally employed as food and for health purposes. In this work, five Cardueae, including two sub-endemic species (four Carduus and three Ptilostemon casabonae (L.) Greuter samples from different locations) were collected from Sardinia and the Corse islands. All the considered plants are characteristic of the area, in particular the sub-endemic species C. cephalanthus and P. casabonae. This work aims to obtain, for the first time, the amino compounds profile (primary metabolites) of these little-studied species to detect for any similarities and differences among the different samples using statistical analyses. A recently developed method was employed, where diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate (DEEMM) derivatives are detected in a neutral loss scan mode using high performance liquid chromatography in tandem with a mass spectrometry technique. In total, 42 amino compounds were detected, of which 33 were fully identified and semi-quantified. Overall, the results show that DEEMM-derivatized amino compounds are qualitatively similar among the considered samples. Nonetheless, a discrimination at the genus level is possible. This work adds more information regarding the phytochemical composition regarding the primary metabolites of the considered samples, their discriminations and the search for compounds with potential health benefits.

Abstract
Kombucha is a fermentation product of sweetened tea with a symbiotic culture of acetic acid and yeast bacteria, consumed worldwide for its health-promoting properties. Few reports can be found about free amino acids among the health-promoting compounds found and determined in kombucha. These compounds influence the sensory properties of kombucha, and they are precursors of bioactive compounds, which have a significant role as neurotransmitters and are involved in biological functions. The presented studies proposed a convenient, simple, and "more green" procedure of the synthesis of amino acid derivatives, assisted by microwave energy, followed by chromatographic determination. The structure of 1-Fluoro-2-nitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene was used as a suitable reagent for the derivatization of free amino acids in fermented kombucha beverages prepared from selected dry fruit such as Crataegus L., Morus alba L., Sorbus aucuparia L., Berberis vulgaris L., Rosa canina L., and black tea. The obtained results were discussed regarding the tested beverages' application as a source of amino acids in one's daily diet. The obtained results point out that the proposed microwave-assisted derivatization procedure prior to HPLC analyses allows for a significant time reduction and the limitation of using organic reagents.

Abstract
Rice is the staple food for more than half of the world's population. In recent years, awareness of the health benefits of colored rice varieties and germinated rice has gradually increased. Riceberry rice (R), a black-purple variety, was germinated and subsequently fermented with Pleurotus ostreatus mycelium (M) to improve nutrient quality and prebiotic properties. The γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and β-glucan contents were measured daily for a total of 4 days. The prebiotic activities of R, germinated Riceberry rice (GR), and germinated Riceberry rice with mycelium (GRM) were evaluated on the probiotic bacteria Pediococcus sp., Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Streptococcus lactis. Results were compared with the M treatment and with the commercial prebiotic agents: inulin and β-glucan. The treatments were also used to evaluate growth of the pathogen Escherichia coli. The GABA content peaked after 3 days of germination. The GR sample fermented with M for 3 days had the optimal concentration of both β-glucan and GABA. Evaluation of the prebiotic properties of rice samples and the commercial standards (inulin and β-glucan) showed that these were enhanced on the GR and GRM treatments. Results also showed the improvement of prebiotic properties on GR as the R sample did not show any prebiotic properties in all probiotic bacteria, whereas the GR sample showed moderate prebiotic activity score of 0.40, 0.88, and 0.56 on Pediococcus sp., L. acidophilus, and S. lactis, respectively. Furthermore, the prebiotic activity of GR was improved when fermented with M. For further applications, the GRM could be used on rice-based products, such as rice flour, rice crackers, or other rice products to enhance nutritional value and improve digestive system health, especially in the elderly.

Abstract
Amino acids are crucial building blocks of living organisms. Together with their derivatives, they participate in many intracellular processes to act as hormones, neuromodulators, and neurotransmitters. For several decades amino acids have been studied for their potential as markers of various diseases, including inflammatory bowel diseases. Subsequent improvements in sample pretreatment, separation, and detection methods have enabled the specific and very sensitive determination of these molecules in multicomponent matrices-biological fluids and tissues. The information obtained from targeted amino acid analysis (biomarker-based analytical strategy) can be further used for early diagnostics, to monitor the course of the disease or compliance of the patients. This review will provide an insight into current knowledge about inflammatory bowel diseases, the role of proteinogenic amino acids in intestinal inflammation and modern analytical techniques used in its diagnosis and disease activity monitoring. Current advances in the analysis of amino acids focused on sample pretreatment, separation strategy, or detection methods are highlighted, and their potential in clinical laboratories is discussed. In addition, the latest clinical data obtained from the metabolomic profiling of patients suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases are summarized with a focus on proteinogenic amino acids.

Abstract
Bioactive compounds and nutritional characterization in three genotypes of mashua tubers (Tropaeolum tuberosum Ruiz and Pavón) from different agroecological areas of the Peruvian highlands (3747 at 3888 meters above sea level) were studied. The studied genotypes from different agroecological areas significantly differed for vitamins, amino acids, and bioactive compounds. However, the nutritional characteristics of yellow, purple, and yellow-purple mashua remained unaffected. Its tubers were shown to be important sources of protein and fiber. The nutritional analysis revealed high phosphorus and potassium values, as well as considerable amounts of vitamin C. The amounts of total free amino acids in the genotypes ranged from
mg/g dry matter (DM) to
mg/g DM. Important total anthocyanins, total flavonoids, total phenolics, tannin content, and antioxidant activity values were obtained from purple genotype. Unexploited colored mashua tubers are proposed as a valuable natural source of phenolics and anthocyanins with high antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Free amino acid (FAA) profiles of fresh, acidified, naturally fermented, and starter culture fermented cucumbers were analyzed by liquid chromatography triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. Fermented cucumbers contained more total FAA than acidified cucumbers (1,302 ± 102 mg/kg and 635 ± 35 mg/kg, respectively). Total FAA content of fermented cucumber was similar regardless of brine salt levels (2-6% NaCl) and starter culture addition. Glutamine (1491.4 ± 69.3 mg/kg), γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 269.6 ± 21.4 mg/kg), asparagine (113.0 ± 6.4 mg/kg), and citrulline (110.3 ± 8.5 mg/kg) were the most abundant FAA in fresh pickling cucumber, whereas GABA (181.3 ± 21.5 mg/kg), isoleucine (165.2 ± 11.2 mg/kg), leucine (129.8 ± 10.9 mg/kg), and lysine (110.9 ± 5.0 mg/kg) were the most abundant in fermented cucumber. GABA and ornithine were produced during fermentation, indicating glutamate decarboxylase and arginine deiminase activities. Notably, ornithine was significantly higher in natural (63.3 ± 31.5 mg/kg) versus starter culture fermented cucumbers (3.0 ± 0.7 mg/kg). This new information on FAA composition of fresh and fermented pickling cucumbers shows the impact of fermentation conditions on cucumber amino acid profiles while providing insight for manipulating fermentations for health promotion and consumer acceptance. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This study reports changes in the free amino acid profiles of raw, fermented and acidified cucumbers, which may be valuable for understanding the impact of these foods on human health and nutrition. This information is useful for food microbiologists studying the metabolism of lactic acid bacteria during fermentation and/or designing starter cultures and could contribute to the development of novel fermented cucumber pickle products with enhanced nutritional value.

Abstract
The purpose of this research was to develop a simple, sensitive, and accurate method for simultaneous determination of 35 free amino acids using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS). Tea samples were extracted with boiling water bath, and then separated by XBridge BEH Amide column by gradient elution. The exact mass and MS/MS spectra of the target compound was detected under the TOF–MS and Information dependent acquisition (IDA)–MS/MS mode. The results demonstrated good linearity (R2 > 0.9980) in the range of 0.5–1,000 ng/mL. The limits of detection (LODs) were 0.13–25.00 mg/kg and the limits of quantitation (LOQs) were 0.25–50.00 mg/kg. The recovery rate ranged from 70.1 to 105.1% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) <11% (n = 6). This research provides a targeted strategy for developing an analysis method for amino acids in tea.

Abstract
Aminoacids and their derivatives are key biologically important metabolites and reliable, rapid and accurate, quantification for these analytes in urine remains an important analytical challenge. Here a fast and reliable HILIC-tandem MS method is presented for application in clinical or nutritional studies. The developed method was validated according to existing guidelines adapted for endogenous analytes. The validation strategy provided evidence of linearity, LOD and LOQ, accuracy, precision, matrix effect and recovery. The surrogate matrix approach was applied for calibration proving satisfactory accuracy and precision based on standard criteria over the working concentration ranges. Intra and inter day accuracy was found to range between 0.8 and 20% for the LQC (low QC) and between 0.05 and 15 % for MQC (medium QC) and HQC (high QC). Inter and intraday precision were found to be between 3 and 20 % for the LQC and between 1 and 15% for the MQC and HQC. The stability of the analytes, in both surrogate and pooled urine QC samples, was found to be within 15% over a short period at 4 °C or after a up to 3 freeze-thaw cycles. The uncertainty of the method was also assessed to provide increased confidence for the acquired measurements. The method was successfully applied to a subset of human urine samples involved in a study of amino acids dietary uptake. This method may provide a valuable tool for many applications or studies where amino acid metabolic signatures in the excreted urine are under investigation.

Abstract
The effect of spray drying on the different polyphenolic compounds present in the root of a purple-fleshed sweet potato variety of Ipomoea batatas native from Peru was performed by HPLC-QTOF-MSMS. Nine anthocyanins, including four peonidin, three cyanidin and two pelargonidin derivatives glycosylated with sophorose and/or glucose and acylated with caffeic, ferulic and p-hydroxybenzoic acid were identified. Twenty nine cinnamoylquinic acids (CiQA), including eight mono-CiQA, fourteen di-CiQA, and five tri-CiQA, were identified on the base of their MS fragmentation profile. Relevant amounts of feruloylquinic acid derivatives were identified. Among them, some di and tri-CiQAs containing feruloyl and caffeoyl moieties in their structures, and di-feruloylquinic acids were reported here, for the first time, in Ipomoea. Spray drying process negatively affected the different phenolic groups, with polyphenol losses representing around 90% of the initial amounts. Mono-CiQAs presenting feruloyl moieties and mono acylated peonidin derivatives with p-hydroxybenzoic acid were the less affected compounds.
