Xin Y, Shido S, Kato K, Shirai T. Glazes induced degradation of tea catechins. Sci Rep 2023; 13:10507. [PMID: 37380665 PMCID: PMC10307877 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-37480-8] [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: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/30/2023] Open
Abstract
In present work, the degradation behavior of tea catechins on various commercial glazes was elucidated for the first time. Four kinds of Japanese typical commercial glaze powders (Oribe /Namako/Irabo /Toumei) based on Fe/Mg /Cu /Ti oxides were utilized and deposited on ceramic tiles. Tea solution extracted from green tea leaves at 80 °C and then utilized for the examination of degradation behavior with glazes to meet a nearly identical condition in human daily tea drinking with ceramicwares. It was found that the degradation of tea catechins significantly dependent on the chemical structure of glazes, that is: Fe/Cu/Mg oxides contained glazes can promote the degradation of epigallocatechin, epicatechin, epigallocatechin gallate and epicatechin gallate, while Ti oxide contained glaze stimulated the degradation of epigallocatechin gallate selectively. Coloring pigments were produced in degraded tea solutions, whose color shows glaze dependent property. We presume that these color pigments can be assigned as oxytheotannin, especially theaflavin and its oxides as well as thearubigins, that produced through the polymerization of intermediate free radical catechin and/or the ortho-quinone generated by catalytic effect of glaze oxides worked as Lewis's acids. The specific function of glazes on degradation of catechins discovered here not only provides principal information for design and development of functional materials but also bring new impacts on daily tea drinking and long-term human health-related issues.

Innovative Green Chemistry Approach to Synthesis of Sn 2+-Metal Complex and Design of Polymer Composites with Small Optical Band Gaps. Molecules 2022; 27:1965.

Abstract
In this work, the green method was used to synthesize Sn2+-metal complex by polyphenols (PPHs) of black tea (BT). The formation of Sn2+-PPHs metal complex was confirmed through UV-Vis and FTIR methods. The FTIR method shows that BT contains NH and OH functional groups, conjugated double bonds, and PPHs which are important to create the Sn2+-metal complexes. The synthesized Sn2+-PPHs metal complex was used successfully to decrease the optical energy band gap of PVA polymer. XRD method showed that the amorphous phase increased with increasing the metal complexes. The FTIR and XRD analysis show the complex formation between Sn2+-PPHs metal complex and PVA polymer. The enhancement in the optical properties of PVA was evidenced via UV-visible spectroscopy method. When Sn2+-PPHs metal complex was loaded to PVA, the refractive index and dielectric constant were improved. In addition, the absorption edge was also decreased to lower photon. The optical energy band gap decreases from 6.4 to 1.8 eV for PVAloaded with 30% (v/v) Sn2+-PPHs metal complex. The variations of dielectric constant versus wavelength of photon are examined to measure localized charge density (N/m*) and high frequency dielectric constant. By increasing Sn2+-PPHs metal complex, the N/m* are improved from 3.65 × 1055 to 13.38 × 1055 m-3 Kg-1. The oscillator dispersion energy (Ed) and average oscillator energy (Eo) are measured. The electronic transition natures in composite films are determined based on the Tauc's method, whereas close examinations of the dielectric loss parameter are also held to measure the energy band gap.

Abstract
The tropolone-bearing sesquiterpenes juniperone A (1) and norjuniperone A (2) were isolated from the folk medicinal plant Juniperus chinensis, and their structures were determined by a combination of spectroscopic and crystallographic methods. Photojuniperones A1 (3) and A2 (4), bearing bicyclo[3,2,0]heptadienones derived from tropolone, were photochemically produced and structurally identified by spectroscopic methods. Predicted by the machine learning-based assay, 1 significantly inhibited the action of tyrosinase. The new compounds also inhibited lipid accumulation and enhanced the extracellular glycerol excretion.

Abstract
In this work, a green approach was implemented to prepare polymer composites using polyvinyl alcohol polymer and the extract of black tea leaves (polyphenols) in a complex form with Co2+ ions. A range of techniques was used to characterize the Co2+ complex and polymer composite, such as Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Visible) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The optical parameters of absorption edge, refractive index (n), dielectric properties including real and imaginary parts (εr, and εi) were also investigated. The FRIR and XRD spectra were used to examine the compatibility between the PVA polymer and Co2+-polyphenol complex. The extent of interaction was evidenced from the shifts and change in the intensity of the peaks. The relatively wide amorphous phase in PVA polymer increased upon insertion of the Co2+-polyphenol complex. The amorphous character of the Co2+ complex was emphasized with the appearance of a hump in the XRD pattern. From UV-Visible spectroscopy, the optical properties, such as absorption edge, refractive index (n), (εr), (εi), and bandgap energy (Eg) of parent PVA and composite films were specified. The Eg of PVA was lowered from 5.8 to 1.82 eV upon addition of 45 mL of Co2+-polyphenol complex. The N/m* was calculated from the optical dielectric function. Ultimately, various types of electronic transitions within the polymer composites were specified using Tauc's method. The direct bandgap (DBG) treatment of polymer composites with a developed amorphous phase is fundamental for commercialization in optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
In the present study black tea extract (BTE) solution which is familiar for drinking was used to prepare cerium metal-complexes (Ce(III)-complex). The prepared Ce(III)-complex was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and UV–Vis spectroscopy. The results indicate that BTE solution is a novel green coordination chemistry approach for the synthesis of metal complexes. The outcomes signify that coordination occurs between cerium cations and polyphenols. The synthesis of metal-complexes with superior absorption performance in the visible region is a challenge for optoelectronic device applications. The suspended Ce(III)-complex in distilled water was mixed with poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) polymer to fabricate PVA/ Ce(III)-complex composites with controlled optical properties. The PVA/Ce(III)-complexes composite films were characterized by FTIR, XRD, and UV–Vis spectroscopy. The XRD findings confirms the amorphous structure for the synthesized Ce(III)-complexes. The addition of Ce(III)-complex into the PVA host polymer led to the growth of polymer composites with controllable small optical band gaps. It is shown by the FTIR spectra of the composite films that the functional groups of the host PVA have a vigorous interaction with the Ce(III)-complex. The XRD deconvolution on PVA composites reveals the amorphous phase enlargement with increasing Ce(III)-complex concentration. It is indicated in the atomic force microscopy (AFM) that the surface roughness in the doped PVA films increases with the increase of the Ce(III)-complex. There is a decrease in absorption edge from 5.7 to 1.7 eV. It becomes possible to recognize the type of electron transition by studying both the Tauc's model and optical dielectric loss (ɛi) parameter.

Abstract
The present work proposed a novel approach for transferring high-risk heavy metals tometal complexes via green chemistry remediation. The method of remediation of heavy metals developed in the present work is a great challenge for global environmental sciences and engineering because it is a totally environmentally friendly procedure in which black tea extract solution is used. The FTIR study indicates that black tea contains enough functional groups (OH and NH), polyphenols and conjugated double bonds. The synthesis of copper complex was confirmed by the UV-vis, XRD and FTIR spectroscopic studies. The XRD and FTIR analysis reveals the formation of complexation between Cu metal complexes and Poly (Vinyl Alcohol) (PVA) host matrix. The study of optical parameters indicates that PVA-based hybrids exhibit a small optical band gap, which is close to inorganic-based materials. It was noted that the absorption edge shifted to lower photon energy. When Cu metal complexes were added to PVA polymer, the refractive index was significantly tuned. The band gap shifts from 6.2 eV to 1.4 eV for PVA incorporated with 45 mL of Cu metal complexes. The nature of the electronic transition in hybrid materials was examined based on the Taucs model, while a close inspection of the optical dielectric loss was also performed in order to estimate the optical band gap. The obtained band gaps of the present work reveal that polymer hybrids with sufficient film-forming capability could be useful to overcome the drawbacks associated with conjugated polymers. Based on the XRD results and band gap values, the structure-property relationships were discussed in detail.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) is substantial for its application in lots of fields. Tomato and grape fruit juices were used as a reducing and capping agents for the biosynthesis of AgNPs. Ultraviolet spectroscopic analysis offered peaks in the range of 396‒420 nm that indicate the production of AgNPs. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis revealed attachment of different functional groups with Ag ion in both tomato and grape fruit extracts NPs. The X‒ray diffraction analysis confirmed that the synthesised AgNPs have a face centred cubic confirmation. Scanning electron microscopy confirms the size of NPs that varies from 10 to 30 nm. The DPPH free radical scavenging assay, total antioxidant capacity, reducing power assay, total flavonoid contents and total phenolic contents determination confirmed that synthesised AgNPs are potent antioxidant agents; can be used as an effective scavenger of free radicals. Biosynthesised AgNPs also showed good antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas septica, Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Bacillus subtilis and Salmonella typhi. Protein kinase inhibition activity showed a clear zone which indicates anticancerous potential of biosynthesised AgNPs. The efficacious bioactivities indicate that the tomato and grape derived AgNPs can be used efficiently in pharmaceutical and medical industries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increasingly common application is the use of silver nanoparticles for antimicrobial coatings, wound dressings, and biomedical devices. In this present investigation, we report, biomedical potential of silver nanopaticles synthesized from calli extract of Citrullus colocynthis on Human epidermoid larynx carcinoma (HEp -2) cell line. METHODS The callus extract react with silver nitrate solution confirmed silver nanoparticles synthesis through the steady change of greenish colour to reddish brown and characterized by using FT-IR, AFM. Toxicity on HEp 2 cell line assessed using MTT assay, caspase -3 assay, Lactate dehydrogenase leakage assay and DNA fragmentation assay. RESULTS The synthesized silver nanoparticles were generally found to be spherical in shape with size 31 nm by AFM. The molar concentration of the silver nanoparticles solution in our present study is 1100 nM/10 mL. The results exhibit that silver nanoparticles mediate a dose-dependent toxicity for the cell tested, and the silver nanoparticles at 500 nM decreased the viability of HEp 2 cells to 50% of the initial level. LDH activities found to be significantly elevated after 48 h of exposure in the medium containing silver nanoparticles when compared to the control and Caspase 3 activation suggested that silver nanoparticles caused cell death through apoptosis, which was further supported by cellular DNA fragmentation, showed that the silver nanoparticles treated HEp2 cells exhibited extensive double strand breaks, thereby yielding a ladder appearance (Lane 2), while the DNA of control HEp2 cells supplemented with 10% serum exhibited minimum breakage (Lane 1). This study revealed completely would eliminate the use of expensive drug for cancer treatment.

Abstract
DFT(B3LYP) studies on first protonation step of a series of Cu(II) complexes of some tripodal tetraamines with general formula N[(CH(2))(n)NH(2)][(CH(2))(m)NH(2)][(CH(2))(p)NH(2)] (n = m = p = 2, tren; n = 3, m = p = 2, pee; n = m = 3, p = 2, ppe; n = m = 3, tpt; n = 2, m = 3, p = 4, epb; and n = m = 3, p = 4; ppb) are reported. First, the gas-phase proton macroaffinity of all latter complexes was calculated with considering following simple reaction: [Cu(L)](2+)(g) + H(+)(g) --> [Cu(HL)](3+)(g). The results showed that there is a good correlation between the calculated proton macroaffinities of all complexes with their stability constants in solution. Then, we tried to determine the possible reliable structures for microspecies involved in protonation process of above complexes. The results showed that, similar to the solid state, the [Cu(L)(H(2)O)](2+) and [Cu(HL)(H(2)O)(2)](3+) are most stable species for latter complexes and their protonated form, respectively, at gas phase. We found that there are acceptable correlations between the formation constants of above complexes with both the -Delta E and -Delta G of following reaction: [Cu(L)(H(2)O)](2+)(g) + H(+)(g) + H(2)O(g) --> [Cu(HL)(H(2)O)(2)](3+)(g). The -Delta E of the latter reaction can be defined as a theoretically solvent-proton macroaffinity of reactant complexes because they have gained one proton and one molecule of the solvent. The unknown formation constant of [Cu(epb)](2+) complex was also predicted from the observed correlations. In addition, the first proton affinity of all complexes was studied in solution using DPCM and CPCM methods. It was shown that there is an acceptable correlation between the solvent-proton affinities of [Cu(L)(H(2)O)](2+) complexes with formation constants of [Cu(HL)(H(2)O)(2)](3+) complexes in solution.

Abstract
Metal-binding compounds have recently been reported to have anti-hyperglycaemic properties in vivo. In the current study, we have investigated the ability of these compounds and related structures to induce insulin-like signal transduction to downstream effectors such as the transcription factor FOXO1a and the key gluconeogenic regulatory enzymes phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase). Our results indicate that β-thujaplicin, diethyldithiocarbamate (DEDTC) and its clinically-used dimer disulfiram, induce insulin-like dose-dependent effects on signalling to FOXO1a in a manner that is strictly dependent on the presence of zinc ions, as other ions including aluminium, cobalt, copper, lithium and manganese cannot substitute. The most potent compound tested on gluconeogenesis is disulfiram, which in the presence of 10 μM zinc, inhibited both PEPCK and G6Pase with an IC50 of 4 μM. Our results demonstrate that metal-binding compounds with diverse structures can induce zinc-dependent insulin-like effects on signal transduction and gene expression.

Abstract
Theaflavins are a family of compounds, whose chemistry has been sparsely investigated. They can comprise up to 40% the dry weight of black tea. They are known to chelate metals, however very little knowledge exists on the mechanisms involved. There is some correlation between both of these areas in that following degradation of the iron theaflavin complex, subsequent redox reactions may lead to the formation of similar products on both occasions. The interaction of iron(III) with theaflavin at pH < 3.0 is investigated by means of liquid chromatography mass spectroscopy (LC-MS), stopped flow spectroscopy and multivariate data analysis. Iron theaflavin complexes are formed which subsequently decay to form a number of oxidative species. The difficulties involved in the elucidation of the structure of polymeric phenolic compounds from black tea has been highlighted by numerous authors. The intermediates and major low molecular weight oxidised theaflavin products from the reaction of excess iron with theaflavin have been detected and identified using multivariate data analysis of diode array spectroscopic data. It is not possible to characterise the extremely polar high molecular weight oxidation products obtained from polyphenol oxidation. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and electrospray mass spectroscopy (ES-MS) detected the low molecular weight oxidised theaflavin species present in the system. Enzymatic oxidation of theaflavin using peroxidase (POD) resulted in the formation of one major low molecular weight species oxidative product, which was fully characterised using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), electrospray mass spectroscopy (ES-MS), UV-visible (UV-Vis) and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FT-IR). The major objective of this work is to investigate the reaction of iron(III) with theaflavin and to add some insight into the mechanistic interaction of iron(III) with this family of compounds.

Abstract
Polyphenols are antioxidants, which are known to influence bioavailability of metals in the body. The theaflavins of black tea are important members of this family, which have been sparsely investigated. The complexation of aluminium with purpurogallin (2,3,4,6-tetrahydroxy-5H-benzocyclohepten-5-one) has been investigated using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy (LC-MS) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. 1H NMR was used to determine the coordination site of the aluminium ion and LC-MS to determine the stoichiometry and molecular weight of the major complex formed in solution. FT-IR spectral comparisons were used to corroborate the proposed chelating moiety. The complexation of aluminium with the high-molecular-weight, tea polyphenol theaflavin digallate was also investigated using 1H NMR and heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence experiments. Structures of the major aluminium purpurogallin and aluminium theaflavin digallate complexes are proposed.
