[PMID: 37549768 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126157] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2023] [Revised: 07/24/2023] [Accepted: 08/04/2023] [Indexed: 08/09/2023]
Abstract
Formaldehyde (HCHO) is a common environmental toxicant that can harm the human respiratory tract and nervous system when exposed for long period of time. As a carcinogen, HCHO also increases the risk of cancer in humans. HCHO can be produced endogenously in living systems and plays an essential role in physiological and biochemical reactions and pathogenesis. Therefore, monitoring the level of HCHO in vivo and in vitro has become the focus of attention. The designed naphthalene fluorophore was introduced onto modified chitosan to prepare a chitosan-based fluorescent probe (CS-FA) for HCHO detection. Compared to other small-molecule probe analogs for the detection of HCHO, the randomly coiled polymer chain of chitosan enabled CS-FA to "enrich" HCHO using the synergistic binding of hydrazino-naphthalimide recognition sites. Thus, the reaction of the analyte with the recognition site was accelerated, resulting in a faster equilibrium fluorescence response (2-3 min) and high sensitivity. In addition, the introduction of biomass material chitosan also improved the biocompatibility of the probe. Then a series of composite materials (test strips and hydrogel) were prepared based on the probe to expand the application form of the probe.

Abstract
Small molecular food contaminants, such as mycotoxins, pesticide residues and antibiotics, are highly probable to be passively introduced in food at all stages of its processing, including planting, harvest, production, transportation and storage. Owing to the high risks caused by the unknowing intake and accumulation in human, there is an urgent need to develop rapid, sensitive and efficient methods to monitor them. Fluorescence-based aptasensors provide a promising platform for this area owing to its simple operation, high sensitivity, wide application range and economical practicability. In this paper, the common sorts of small molecular contaminants in foods, namely mycotoxins, pesticides, antibiotics, etc, are briefly introduced. Then, we make a comprehensive review, from fluorescence resonance energy transfer (in turn-on, turn-off, and ratiometric mode, as well as energy upconversion) to fluorescence polarization, of the fluorescence-based aptasensors for the determination of these food contaminants reported in the last five years. The principle of signal generation, the advances of each sort of fluorescent aptasensors, as well as their applications are introduced in detail. Additionally, we also discussed the challenges and perspectives of the fluorescent aptasensors for small molecular food contaminants. This work will offer systematic overview and inspiration for amateurs, researchers and developers of fluorescence-based aptasensors for the detection of small molecules.

Abstract
Lignin, an aromatic biopolymer, is the second most abundant naturally occurring one after cellulose that has drawn a great deal of interest over the years for its potential uses owing to the presence of high content of phenolic compounds, ecofriendly feature and cost-efficiency in comparison to the synthetic polymers. Nevertheless, with the intention of advancing its development, several efforts have been performed in the direction of utilizing lignin on the nanoscale due to its inimitable properties. The notable absorption capacity, fluorescence emission, biodegradability and non-toxicity of lignin nanoparticles permit its appropriateness as a vehicle for drugs and as a bioimaging material. Moreover, lignin nanoparticles have shown plausible therapeutic effects, such as anticancer, antimicrobial, and antioxidant. The current review sheds light on the recent development in the formulation and anticancer applications of lignin nanoparticles as a drug carrier and as a diagnostic tool. The surface properties of the nanomaterial affect the end product characteristics, hence, factors namely; lignin source, isolation technique, purification and quantitation methods, are discussed in this review. This study represents original work that has not been published elsewhere and that has not been submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. The manuscript has been read, revised, and approved by the authors.

Abstract
Detecting plant-derived signal molecules using fluorescent probes is a key topic and a huge challenge for scientists. Salicylic acid (SA), a vital plant-derived defense hormone, can activate global transcriptional reprogramming to systemically express a network of prominent pathogenesis-related proteins against invasive microorganisms. This strategy is called systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Therefore, monitoring the dynamic fluctuations of SA in subcellular microenvironments can advance our understanding of different physiological and pathological functions during the SA-induced SAR mechanism, thus benefiting the discovery and development of novel immune activators that contribute to crop protection. Here, detection of signaling molecule SA in plant callus tissues was first reported and conducted by a simple non-fluorescent rhodamine-tagged architecture bearing a flexible 2-amino-N,N-dimethylacetamide pattern. This study can markedly advance and promote the usage of fluorescent SA probes for distinguishing SA in the plant kingdom.

Abstract
A quenching based apta-sensing platform was developed for the detection of Patulin. Three different aptamer sequences were studied to screen the aptamer with the maximum affinity towards Patulin. Carboxyfluorescein (CFL) was used as a fluorescent dye while -COOH functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were applied as novel nanoquenchers. Aptamer tagged at the 3' end with 40 nucleotide bases exhibited the maximum affinity towards Patulin and caused substantial fluorescence recovery. Interestingly, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were calculated as 0.13 μg L-1and 0.41 μg L-1 respectively. Commonly occurring mycotoxins in food were also tested to confirm the selectivity of apta-assay. The developed apta-assay was applied to a spiked apple juice sample and toxin recoveries were observed ranging from 96% to 98% (n = 3). These results demonstrated the potential of the developed apta-assay for the selective detection and quantification of Patulin in food samples.

Abstract
In this work, 1-carboxypropyled (1-CPRLS) and 5-carboxypentyled lignosulfonates (5-CPELS) were synthesized using 2-chlorobutanoic acid and 6-chlorohexanoic acid as carboxylate group donors via SN1 and SN2 mechanisms, respectively. 1-Carboxypropyl and 5-carboxypentyl lignosulfonates with the charge densities of −3.45 and −2.94 meq g−1 and molecular weights of 87,900 and 42,400 g·mol−1 were produced, respectively, under mild conditions. The carboxylate content and degree of substitution (DS) of the 1-CPRLS product were 2.37 mmol·g−1 and 0.70 mol·mol−1, while those of 5-CPELS products were 2.13 mmol·g−1 and 0.66 mol·mol−1, respectively. The grafting of carboxypropyl and carboxypentyl groups to lignosulfonate was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR and 13C-NMR) spectroscopies. In addition, 1-CPRLS and 5-CPELS were applied as coagulants for removing ethyl violet (EV) dye from a simulated solution, and their performance was related to their charge densities and molecular weights. Furthermore, fundamental discussion is provided on the advantages of (1) producing 1-CPRLS and (2) the superior properties and performance of 1-CPRLS to carboxyethylated lignosulfonate.

Abstract
Abstract
In China, the rapid development greatly promotes the national economic power and living standard but also inevitably brings a series of environmental problems. In order to resolve these problems fundamentally, Chinese scientists have been undertaking research in the area of green chemical engineering (GCE) for many years and achieved great progresses. In this paper, we reviewed the research progresses related to GCE in China and screened four typical topics related to the Chinese resources characteristics and environmental requirements, i.e. ionic liquids and their applications, biomass utilization and bio-based materials/products, green solvent-mediated extraction technologies, and cold plasmas for coal conversion. Afterwards, the perspectives and development tendencies of GCE were proposed, and the challenges which will be faced while developing available industrial technologies in China were mentioned.

Abstract
Lignin is a kind of natural fluorescent polymer material. However, the application based on the fluorescent property of lignin was rarely reported. Herein, a noncovalent lignin-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system was readily constructed by physical blending method with spirolactam rhodamine B (SRhB) and lignosulfonate (LS) as the acceptor and donor groups, respectively. The FRET behavior, self-assembly, and energy transfer mechanism of SRhB/LS composite were systematically studied. It was demonstrated that LS could be used as a convenient aptamer as energy donor to construct water-soluble ratiometric sensors because of its inherent property of intramicelle energy transfer cascades. Our results not only present a facile and general strategy for producing lignin-based functional material but also provide a fundamental understanding about lignin fluorescence to promote the functional and high-valued applications of lignin fluorescence characteristic.

Abstract
Lignosulfonate is a byproduct of the sulfite pulping process and has limited use in industry. The main objective of this study was to investigate the carboxyethylation of lignosulfonate to increase its charge density to broaden its applications. The carboxyethylation of lignosulfonate was optimized under the conditions of 30 wt % NaOH, 2.0 mol mol-1 2-chloropropinic acid/lignosulfonate, 90 °C, 0.5 h, and 0.03 mol 2-chloropropinic acid, which produced carboxyethylated lignosulfonate with a charge density and molecular weight of -3.51 meq g-1 and 46 493 g mol-1 , respectively. The mechanism of the carboxyethylation reaction using 2-chloropropinic acid by an SN 1 pathway in an alkaline solution was discussed. Methylation was also used to mask the phenolic hydroxide groups of lignosulfonate to investigate if carboxyethylation occurred on aliphatic hydroxide groups of lignosulfonate. The produced carboxyethylated lignosulfonate was characterized by using FTIR spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography, and elemental and functional group analyses. Basic 1 H-1 H 2 D COSY NMR spectroscopy was used to record the coupled spins of the carboxyethyl group on carboxyethylated lignosulfonate. The information from 1 D 1 H NMR and 2 D NMR COSY spectroscopy provided evidence for the existence of a 1-carboxyethyl group on the carboxyethylated lignosulfonate structure.
