A novel source of biologically active compounds - The leaves of Serbian herbaceous peonies. Saudi Pharm J 2024; 32:102090. [PMID: 38766273 PMCID: PMC11101739 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsps.2024.102090] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
In order to gain further insight into how various extraction techniques (maceration, microwave-, and ultrasound-assisted extractions) affect the chemical profile and biological activities of leaf extracts from Paeonia tenuifolia L., Paeonia peregrina Mill., and Paeonia officinalis L., this research was performed. The targeted chemical characterization of the extracts was achieved using the Ultra-High-Performance-Liquid-Chromatography-Linear-Trap-Mass-Spectrometry OrbiTrap instrumental technique, while Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy was conducted to investigate the structural properties of the examined leaf extracts. According to the results, the species P. officinalis, Božurna locality as the origin of the plant material, and microwave-assisted extraction produced the maximum polyphenol yield, (491.9 ± 2.7 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/mL). The ethanolic extracts exhibited moderate antioxidant activity as evaluated by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) and phosphomolybdenum tests. With MIC values of 0.125 mg/mL, the leaf extracts produced by ultrasound-assisted extraction and maceration (Deliblato sands and Bogovo gumno) had the best antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella Typhimurium. Ultrasound-assisted extraction has proven to produce the most effective antimicrobial agents. Inhibitory potential towards glucosidase, amylase, cholinesterases, and tyrosinase was evaluated in enzyme inhibition assays and molecular docking simulations. Results show that leaves of P. tenuifolia L. obtained by ultrasound-assisted extraction had the highest acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory activity. Namely, the complexity of the polyphenol structures, the extraction method, the used locality, and the different mechanisms of the reactions between bioactives from leaf extracts and other components (free radicals, microorganisms, and enzymes) are the main factors that influence the results of the antioxidant tests, as well as the antibacterial and enzyme-inhibitory activities of the extracts. Hydroxymethyl-phenyl pentosyl-hexoside and acetyl-hydroxyphenyl-hexoside were the first time identified in the leaf extract of the Paeonia species. Due to their proven biological activities and the confirmed existence of bioactive compounds, leaf extracts may find use in foodstuffs, functional foods, and pharmaceutical products.

Sun W, Xu N, Jiang W, Cheng G. Mechanistic insights into manganese oxide impacting the oxidation and transport of Cr(III) immobilized by nano-zero valent charged ion particles in water-saturated porous media. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 469:134050. [PMID: 38493629 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134050] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 03/10/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
The presence of manganese oxide (MnO2) could influence the stability of green-synthesized nano-zero valent iron (nZVI@GT) associated with trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) after its excess application in the in situ remediation of hexachromium (Cr(VI)) contaminated soil. The research findings revealed that the co-transport of the remaining nZVI@GT with Cr(III) was substantially inhibited by high δ-MnO2 concentrations due to the formation of hetero-aggregates between nZVI@GT and δ-MnO2, resulting in an increased irreversible attachment parameter at second-site in a two-site kinetic attachment model. Simultaneously, the Cr(III) complex immobilized on nZVI@GT could be oxidized leading to high levels of Cr(VI) leaching at high δ-MnO2 concentrations. During this process, Mn(IV) was converted to Mn(III)/Mn(II). Subsequently, leachate containing a partial amount of Cr(VI) preferentially adsorbed onto the nZVI@GT surface, enhancing the dispersion of the nZVI@GT and δ-MnO2 agglomerates. Thereafter, nZVI@GT transportability was enhanced with a decreased second-site attachment parameter and the flow content of dissolved Cr(VI) was increased to double, also increasing the potential risk of Cr(VI) being carried by nZVI@GT to underground water systems. This study provides theoretical support for preserving the long-term stability of nZVI@GT after the in situ remediation of heavy metal-contaminated sites in the presence of δ-MnO2.

Abstract
Regulation of antibiotic use in aquaculture calls for the emergence of more sustainable alternative treatments. Tea polyphenols (GTE), particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), have various biological activities. However, tea polyphenols are susceptible to degradation. In this work, EGCG and GTE were encapsulated in zein nanoparticles (ZNP) stabilized with alginate (ALG) and chitosan (CS) to reduce the degradation effect. ALG-coated ZNP and ALG/CS-coated ZNP encapsulating EGCG or GTE were obtained with a hydrodynamic size of less than 300 nm, an absolute ζ-potential value >30 mV, and an encapsulation efficiency greater than 75%. The antioxidant capacity of the encapsulated substances, although lower than that of the free ones, maintained high levels. On the other hand, the evaluation of antimicrobial activity showed greater efficiency in terms of growth inhibition for ALG/CS-ZNP formulations, with average overall values of around 60%, reaching an inhibition of more than 90% for Photobacterium damselae. These results support encapsulation as a good strategy for tea polyphenols, as it allows maintaining significant levels of antioxidant activity and increasing the potential for antimicrobial activity, in addition to increasing protection against sources of degradation.

Abstract
This study explored the potential synergism within chlorhexidine-silver nanoparticle conjugates against Influenza type A, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans. Silver nanoparticles (SN) were obtained by the reduction of silver ions with green tea total phenolic extract and conjugated with chlorhexidine (Cx). The particles were characterized by UV-Vis and FTIR spectroscopies, dynamic light scattering, X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy. A stable negatively charged nano-silver colloid (ζ = -50.01) was obtained with an average hydrodynamic diameter of 92.34 nm. In the presence of chlorhexidine, the spectral data and the shift of the zeta potential to positive values (ζ = +44.59) revealed the successful sorption of the drug onto the silver surface. The conjugates (SN-Cx) demonstrated potentiation in their effects against S. aureus and C. albicans and synergism against E. coli with minimal inhibitory concentrations of SN at 5.5 µg/mL + Cx 8.8 µg/mL. The SN showed excellent virucidal properties, increasing with time, and demonstrated low toxicity. However, the coupling of the cationic chlorhexidine with nano-silver did not reduce its intrinsic cytotoxicity on various cell lines (MDCK, BJ, and A549). The newly synthesized antimicrobial agent exhibited an extended and promising therapeutic spectrum and needs to be further evaluated regarding the designated route of administration in three-dimensional cell models (e.g., nasal, bronchial, dermal, ocular, etc.).

Abstract
This article studies the release of phenolic compounds during cocoa heating under vacuum, N2, and air atmospheres, and proposes fast heating (60 °C • s-1) as a methodology that allows the release of polyphenols from fermented cocoa powder. We aim to demonstrate that gas phase transport is not the only mechanism to extract compounds of interest and that convective-type mechanisms can facilitate the process by reducing their degradation. The oxidation and transport phenomena were evaluated both in the extracted fluid and in the solid sample during the heating process. Polyphenols transport phenomena were assessed based on the fluid (chemical condensate compounds) that was collected cold with an organic solvent (methanol) in a hot plate reactor. Out of all the polyphenolic compounds present in cocoa powder, we assessed specifically the release of catechin and epicatechin. We found that high heating rates combined with vacuum or N2 favor the ejection of liquids; then, it is possible to extract compounds such as catechin-which is dissolved/entrained and transported in the ejected liquids-and avoid degradation phenomena.

Abstract
We present a novel method for the quantitative analysis of mixtures of semivolatile chemical compounds. For the first time, thermal desorption is integrated directly with nanoelectromechanical infrared spectroscopy (NEMS-IR-TD). In this new technique, an analyte mixture is deposited via nebulization on the surface of a NEMS sensor and subsequently desorbed using heating under vacuum. The desorption process is monitored in situ via infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The resulting spectro-temporal maps allow for selective identification and analysis of the mixture. In addition, the corresponding thermogravimetric data allow for analysis of the desorption dynamics of the mixture components. As a demonstration, caffeine and theobromine were selectively identified and quantified from a mixture with a detection limit of less than 6 pg (about 30 fmol). With its exceptional sensitivity, NEMS-IR-TD allows for the analysis of low abundance and complex analytes with potential applications ranging from environmental sensing to life sciences.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based materials with porous structure were selected as the basic skeleton to prepare a flexible and biodegradable wound dressing. The carboxymethyl chitosan/sodium alginate/tea polyphenols (CC/SA/TP) with a two-layer porous structure exhibits a variety of performances. The specific combined structure with ordered and lamellar porous structure was constructed by high-speed homogenized foaming, Ca2+ crosslinking and two-step freeze-drying methods. Moreover, the CC/SA/TP porous structure owns better shape retention and recovery because of the 3D network with an "egg-box" structure formed by impregnation. Tea polyphenols are efficiently encapsulated into a porous structure and released in a sustained pattern. After storing for 60 days, the CC/SA/TP porous structure still exhibits great suitable water vapor transmittance, efficient antibacterial activity and ultrarapid antioxidant activity. Meanwhile, the relatively low differential blood clotting index (BCI) and cytotoxicity of the CC/SA/TP porous structure indicate that it possesses the possibility of adjusting and controlling wound bleeding. The test results reveal that the CC/SA/TP porous structure might be expected to play a great potential role in biomedical applications of wound dressing.

Abstract
Coconut coir is produced by extracting tiny grains of coir from coconut shell, which is an agricultural product that is abundant in Thailand. Coir is typically discarded, but it is a useful material because it contains tannins. Tannin is a polyphenolic compound that is prevalent in the plant kingdom, including in wood, bark, rhizomes, roots, and fruits. In this study, we extracted tannins from coconut coir using two types of solvents: water and ethanol. Optimization of the tannin content was achieved via RSM (response surface methodology) with the assistance of Design-Expert software. Meanwhile, the temperature (30-70 °C), ratio of solid to solvent (1:20-1:40), and solvent type (water or ethanol) were optimized via central composite design (CCD). The optimum model using analysis of variance revealed R2 = 0.9825, and adj.R2 = 0.9687. Temperature is affected by tannin content, and high temperatures result in a higher tannin content when using water than when using ethanol. Optimum conditions for coconut coir extraction using water with ethanol include a ratio for solid to solvent of 1:30 and the temperature set to 70 °C. The validated model exhibits errors of 8.24 and 11.08% for water and ethanol, respectively. Confirmation of the presence of tannins in the crude extract was carried out via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and through the use of liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry.

Abstract
Flavonoids are secondary metabolites commonly found in plants. They are known for their antioxidant properties, are part of the defense mechanisms of plants and are responsible for the pigmentation of fruit and flowers petals. Consumption foods rich in flavonoids in the daily diet brings a number of pro-health benefits - for example blood pressure regulation, delaying the aging process or anti-cancer effect. These compounds in synthetic or natural form are also used in pharmacy. The profile of flavonoid compounds can be quickly, accurately and easy determine in the test sample by using the infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Those methods are successfully used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Spectroscopy methods allow us to determine the chemical structure of these compounds. This review describes and compares differences between the spectroscopic spectra of individual compounds with the chemical structure for the flavonoids subgroups: flavones, isoflavones, flavanones, flavonols and anthocyanins.

Abstract
Human health-related issues are increasing in day to day life because of the modern and unhygienic food lifestyles. In recent times, green tea (GT) gains more attention due to its numerous health benefits. It contains more biologically active compounds that improve mental health, increase metabolism, reduce cancer risks, and serve as an anti-aging agent for the brain. As it is globally consumed, the evaluation of the compounds present in it is very important. Hence, an attempt has been performed to evaluate these components in GT by using a cobalt nickel iron-based trimetallic zeolitic imidazolate framework as microfibers (CoNiFe-ZIF-MFs) synthesized via an electrospinning technique. Interestingly, the synthesized CoNiFe-ZIF-MFs catalyst simultaneously detects three major catechin (CT) groups, namely, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), epicatechin (EC), and epicatechingallate (ECG). Further, the square wave voltammetry findings showed that there is a wide linear range of 50 ng to 1 mg for all the three CTs with LODs 45, 8, and 4 ng for EGCG, EC, and ECG, respectively. These results confirm the excellent sensing behavior of the composite toward GT extracts, proposing its practical utility in real-time compound analysis in food sectors. Other results like stability and reproducibility also promote its usage in the biomedical field. This study mainly focuses on the direct sensing of CTs present in GT without spiking any commercially purchased sample, and the sensing was performed simultaneously for all the three analytes; thus, this work gains novelty from the existing ones.

Abstract
This work characterized bacterial cellulose (BC)/Uncaria gambir (G) biocomposite film prepared with ultrasonication treatment. Films were prepared from BC powder suspensions in distilled water without and with various loadings (0.05 g, 0.1 g, 0.2 g, 2 g) of G powder then treated using an ultrasonic probe at 1000 W for one hour. The results revealed that the ultrasonication treatment of the suspension greatly increased tensile strength (TS), elongation at break (EB), and toughness (TN) of a BC film by 3097%, 644%, and 32,600%, respectively, compared to non-sonicated BC film. After adding 0.05 g G into the sonicated BC powder suspension, TS, EB, and TN of the biocomposite film were improved to 105.6 MPa, 14.3%, and 8.7 MJ/m3, respectively. The addition of the G increased in antimicrobial activity of the film. This study indicates that biocomposite film is potentially useful for nanopaper production with good antimicrobial and high tensile properties.

Abstract
Mid-infrared spectroscopy using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) with attenuated total reflectance (ATR) correction was coupled with partial least square regression (PLSR) for the prediction of phenolic acids and flavonoids in fig (peel and pulp) identified with high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD), with regards to their partitioning between peel and pulp. HPLC-DAD was used to quantify the phenolic compounds (PCs). The FTIR spectra were collected between 4,000 and 450 cm-1 and the data in the wavenumber range of 1.175-940 cm-1, where the deformations of O-H, C-O, C-H, and C=C corresponded to flavanol and phenols, were used for the establishment of PLSR models. Nine PLSR models were constructed for peel samples, while six were built for pulp extracts. The results showed a high-throughput accuracy of such an approach to predict the PCs in the powder samples. Significant differences were detected between the models built for the two fruit parts. Thus, for both peel and pulp extracts, the coefficient of determination (R2) ranged from 0.92 to 0.99 and between 0.85 and 0.95 for calibration and cross-validation, respectively, along with a root mean square error (RMSE) values in the range of 0.46-0.9 and 0.23-2.05, respectively. Residual predictive deviation (RPD) values were generally satisfactory, where cyanidin-3,5-diglucoside and cyanidin-3-O-rutinoside had the higher level (RPD > 2.5). Similar differences were observed based on the distribution revealed by partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), which showed a remarkable overlapping in the distribution of the samples, which was intense in the pulp extracts. This study suggests the use of FTIR-ATR as a rapid and accurate method for PCs assessment in fresh fig.

Abstract
Abstract
Corn cob and tea leaves waste are used as raw materials for condensed phenolic structures. In this study phenolics were extracted from these waste materials, characterized, and modified to obtain surface active materials. The phenolic structures of corn cob were HGS-type lignin with 10% by mass of initial dry weight, while of tea waste were condensed tannin with catechin-like fragments with 15% by mass. Hydroxymethylation reactions were carried out to increase the reactive sites and also the water solubility. The phenolics of the corn cob were hydroxymethylated to a higher rate than the phenolics of the tea leaves waste (85 vs. 48%). Subsequent modification with maleic anhydride was carried out at a rate of about 40% for both types. Visual determinations indicated that all the materials obtained behaved like non-ionic surfactants. However, sulfonation of tannin structure (at a rate of 40%) resulted in an anionic surfactant structure, as expected.

Assessment of antioxidant and cytotoxicity activities against A-549 lung cancer cell line by synthesized reduced graphene oxide nanoparticles mediated by Camellia sinensis. 3 Biotech 2021; 11:494.

Abstract
Camellia sinensis (green tea leaves) which acts as a reducing agent was used for the reduction of graphene oxide (GO) to obtain reduced graphene oxide (RGO). Anionic surfactant SDS was used to enhance the stability of synthesized reduced graphene oxide nanoparticles. Characterized reduced graphene oxide nanoparticle grain size was calculated to be 3.92 nm from the X-ray diffraction method, whereas zeta potential was measured - 35.23 ± 5.45 mV at room temperature. Antioxidant and cell cytotoxicity against A-549 lung carcinoma cells were also studied. Phytochemical content of Camellia sinensis imparts feasible DPPH activity of 85.98 ± 2.49% against RGO, whereas ABTS scavenging activity was found to be 88.87 ± 1.74% followed by measurement of the total phenolic content of 842 ± 13.33 µg/gm. RGO at concentration 400 µg/ml showed an optimum level of hemolysis at pH 7.4 (4.92 ± 1.20%) than pH 5.6 (11.15 ± 0.03%). Cytotoxicity activity studied by MTT assay of RGO on A-549 lung carcinomas cells was compared with drug doxorubicin. The bandgap energy of RGO was calculated to be 3.97 eV from absorption data, hence reveals the generation of oxidative stress in the A-549 lung cancer cell line. Thus, the surfactant and phytochemicals found in Camellia sinensis enhanced the stability of RGO, thereby providing enough energy to destabilize the target cells without affecting healthy cells, hence suggests its role in therapeutics application.

Abstract
The nano-zero-valent iron composite (nZVI@TP-Mont) was successfully prepared using a low-cost and environmental-friendly green synthesis via tea leaves extract (tea polyphenols, TPs) and the montmorillonite (Mont). The batch and column experiments and characterization were conducted to investigate the transport behavior and Cr(VI) remediation by nZVI@TP-Mont in water/soil. Due to its particular surface characteristics and morphology (i.e., the Fe0 core wrapped by TPs, the doped sulfur, and interlayer structure), the nZVI@TP-Mont composite showed a great removal capacity of Cr(VI) and sufficient mobility under different soil conditions. We opine the increase in the Cr(VI) reduction of nZVI@TP-Mont was attributed to the tethering of Fe2O3 on the surface of Fe0 core by the support of Mont interlayer, especially the TP-coverage around nZVI@TP-Mont surface unwrapped, thereby increasing the regenerated reactive Fe2+ and the exposed reaction sites of Fe0 cores to Cr(VI). The increased transportability of nZVI@TP-Mont slightly depends on the heterogeneous soil properties (i.e., ionic strength, sand/soil ratio, and pH). The two-site kinetic attachment model fitting results suggest Cr(VI)/Cr(III) speciation associated with the agglomerated nZVI@TP-Mont were efficiently immobilized in soil. Therefore, this study would benefit the efficient application of the green-synthesized nZVI@TP-Mont in in-situ remediation of soils contaminated by Cr(VI).

Abstract
Protein kinase CK2 is largely involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis and is generally recognized as an Achilles’ heel of cancer, being overexpressed in several malignancies. The beneficial effects of (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in the prevention and treatment of several diseases, including cancer, have been widely reported. However, poor stability and limited bioavailability hinder the development of EGCG as an effective therapeutic agent. The combination of innovative nanomaterials and bioactive compounds into nanoparticle-based systems demonstrates the synergistic advantages of nanocomplexes as compared to the individual components. In the present study, we developed a self-assembled core-shell nanohybrid (SAMN@EGCG) combining EGCG and intrinsic dual-signal iron oxide nanoparticles (Surface Active Maghemite Nanoparticles). Interestingly, nano-immobilization on SAMNs protects EGCG from degradation, preventing its auto-oxidation. Most importantly, the nanohybrid was able to successfully deliver EGCG into cancer cells, displaying impressive protein kinase CK2 inhibition comparable to that obtained with the most specific CK2 inhibitor, CX-4945 (5.5 vs. 3 µM), thus promoting the phytochemical exploitation as a valuable alternative for cancer therapy. Finally, to assess the advantages offered by nano-immobilization, we tested SAMN@EGCG against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a Gram-negative bacterium involved in severe lung infections. An improved antimicrobial effect with a drastic drop of MIC from 500 to 32.7 μM was shown.

Abstract
Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has garnered tremendous interest as conventional methods include the use and production of toxic chemicals, products, by-products and reagents. In this regard, the synthesis of AgNPs using green tea (GT) extract and two of its components, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and (+)-catechin (Ct) as capping/stabilizing agents, is reported. The synthesized AgNPs showed antibacterial activity against the bacterial strains Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, along with anticancer activity against HeLa cells. After administering nanoparticles to the body, they come in contact with proteins and results in the formation of a protein corona; hence we studied the interactions of these biocompatible AgNPs with hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) as a carrier protein. Static quenching mechanism was accountable for the quenching of HEWL fluorescence by the AgNPs. The binding constant (K b) was found to be higher for EGCG-AgNPs ((2.309 ± 0.018) × 104 M-1) than for GT-AgNPs and Ct-AgNPs towards HEWL. EGCG-AgNPs increased the polarity near the binding site while Ct-AgNPs caused the opposite effect, but GT-AgNPs had no such observable effects. Circular dichroism studies indicated that the AgNPs had no such appreciable impact on the secondary structure of HEWL. The key findings of this research included the synthesis of AgNPs using GT extract and its constituent polyphenols, and showed significant antibacterial, anticancer and protein-binding properties. The -OH groups of the polyphenols drive the in situ capping/stabilization of the AgNPs during synthesis, which might offer new opportunities having implications for nanomedicine and nanodiagnostics.

Abstract
While iron-based nanoparticles (nFe) prepared using green tea extracts have been successfully used to degrade many organic contaminants, their application to remove As(V) remains limited. Thus, in this work, nFe (GT-1) prepared using a green tea extract was used to removal As(V). The maximum adsorption capacity of GT-1 for As(V) was 19.9 mg g-1 at 298 K. The formation of GT-1 and the removal mechanism of As(V) by GT-1, was examined using XRD, TEM and SEM, which showed that GT-1 was composed of amorphous particulates sized between 50 and 100 nm. GC-MS and LC-MS analysis also showed that biomolecules presented in the green tea extract, including polyphenols and L-theanine, participated in the formation of GT-1. Mössbauer spectral analysis confirmed that an organo-Fe(III) complex was formed due to the reaction between biomolecules and Fe(III). FTIR and XPS showed that the adsorption of As(V) by GT-1 occurred both via complexation with Fe(III) in GT-1 and via coordination of As(V) with free hydroxyl groups on the surface of GT-1. Batch experiments showed that adsorption was spontaneous and conformed to the pseudo-second order kinetic model. Finally, mechanisms for the formation of GT-1 and the removal of As (V) by GT-1 were proposed.

Abstract
Shape-memory hydrogels are expected to be used not only in an ordinary environment, but also in some special environments, such as under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. Developing novel shape-memory polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/tea polyphenol (TP) hydrogels with UV shielding performance is realistically important in application fields. Herein, we designed functional PVA/TP hydrogels with excellent UV-shielding ability and improved the shape memory on hot water stimuli. This study shows that the abundant hydrogen bonds between PVA and TP are the source of shape memory. The PVA hydrogels with 8 wt% TP loading could approximately recover their original shape after deformation when immersed in water at 50 °C for 30 s. Meanwhile, the hydrogels also had excellent UV shielding capacity. After ageing under UV for 16 days, the observed shape of the hydrogel with 8 wt% TP loading retained 74.7% of the original, and the hydrogel could effectively protect the skin of mice from damage under 10 mW cm-2 UV irradiation. With the understanding of the UV-shielding behavior of hydrogels, this study has been able to generate biomedical materials for human skin protection, specifically skin covering the joint areas, where shape memory of the applied materials is essential.

Abstract
Green tea nanoparticles (gTNPs) are considered as the precursors of tea cream, while the role of gTNPs in the process of tea cream formation remains obscure. This study indicated that gTNPs could be coated with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)-caffeine (CAF) complexes to form a ternary aggregate participating in tea cream formation. First, the ζ-potentials of gTNPs and EGCG-CAF complexes were adjusted by charge screening. Then, gTNPs were introduced into EGCG + CAF mixture solutions under different ζ-potential conditions to examine their effect on turbidity, particle size and components of mixture solutions. Finally, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was applied to investigate the influence of gTNPs on the thermal effects of the interaction between EGCG and CAF. Our results reveal that hydrophobic interaction exceeded electrostatic repulsion to dominate the interaction between gTNPs and EGCG-CAF complexes at the low ζ-potential condition, thus forming the gTNPs/EGCG/CAF ternary aggregate.

Catechins-Modified Selenium-Doped Hydroxyapatite Nanomaterials for Improved Osteosarcoma Therapy Through Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species. Front Oncol 2019; 9:499.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma is the most common bone cancer with limited therapeutic options. It can be treated by selenium-doped hydroxyapatite owing to its known antitumor potential. However, a high concentration of Se is toxic toward normal and stem cells whereas its low concentration cannot effectively remove cancer cells. Therefore, the current study was aimed to improve the anticancer activity of Se-HAp nanoparticles through catechins (CC) modification owing to their high cancer therapeutic value. The sequentially developed catechins modified Se-HAp nanocomposites (CC/Se-HAp) were characterized for various physico-chemical properties and antitumor activity. Structural analysis showed the synthesis of small rod-like single phase HAp nanoparticles (60 ± 15 nm), which effectively interacted with Se and catechins and formed agglomerated structures. TEM analysis showed the internalization and degradation of CC/Se-HAp nanomaterials within MNNG/HOS cells through a non-specific endocytosis process. Cell toxicity analysis showed that catechins modification improved the antitumor activity of Se-HAp nanocomposites by inducing apoptosis of human osteosarcoma MNNG/HOS cell lines, through generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which in turn activated the caspase-3 pathway, without significantly affecting the growth of human normal bone marrow stem cells (hBMSCs). qPCR and western blot analyses revealed that casp3, p53, and bax genes were significantly upregulated while cox-2 and PTK-2 were slightly downregulated as compared to control in CC/Se-HAp-treated MNNG/HOS cell lines. The current study of combining natural biomaterial (i.e., catechins) with Se and HAp, can prove to be an effective therapeutic approach for bone cancer therapy.

Abstract
In this study, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was used as a film-forming substrate, added to extracted tea polyphenols (TPs) in various ratios and processed with ultrasonication to form films using the tape-casting method. The effects of ultrasonic processing duration on the properties of PVA/TP antibacterial active materials were explored via material property testing. The results showed that, overall, ultrasonic processing degraded the tensile strength and elongation at break of the composite films. When PVA/TP composite films with a PVA-to-TP mass ratio of 8:2 were processed with ultrasonication for 30 min, the swelling capacity was (740.19 ± 64.67)% and solubility was (5.26 ± 1.31)%. Ultrasonication also improved the degradability and barrier properties of composite films. Moreover, 8/2 composite films with the PVA/TP ratio of 8:2 exhibited excellent bacteriostatic properties; after ultrasonication processing, the films had a bacteriostatic rate of (95.5 ± 4.2)% and (91.8 ± 3.7)% against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, respectively, making them suitable for use as antibacterial active materials in food packaging.

Abstract
Opuntia ficus-indica that belongs to the Cactaceae family and is a member of Opuntia kind has received increasing research interest for wastewater treatment by flocculation. The objectives of this study were (i) to provide more information regarding the active constituents of Opuntia spp. and (ii) to improve the extracting and using conditions of the flocculant molecules for water treatment. A classic approach by jar test experiments was used with raw and extracted material by solubilization and precipitation. The surface properties of solid material were characterized by FTIR, SEM, zeta potential measurement, and surface titration. The splitting based on the solubility of the material with pH and the titration of functional groups completed the method. The optimal pH value for a coagulation-flocculation process using cactus solid material (CSM) was 10.0 and a processing rate of 35 mg L-1. The alkaline pH of flocculation suggests an adsorption mechanism with bridging effect between particles by water-soluble extracted molecules. To validate this mechanism, an extraction water was carried out at pH = 10 (optimum of flocculation) and the solution was acidified (pH = 7) to allow precipitation of so considered active flocculant molecules. The strong flocculant property of this extract was verified, and titration of this solution showed at least one specific pKa of 9.0 ± 0.6. This pKa corresponds to phenol groups, which could be assigned to lignin and tannin.

Abstract
This study reports the novel spectroscopic investigations and enhanced the electron transfers of Citrus reticulata and Musa acuminata fruit peels as the photosensitizers for the dye-sensitized solar cells. The calculated TD-DFT-UB3LYP/6-31+G(d,p)-IEFPCM(UAKS), experiment spectra of ultra-violet-visible spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies indicate the main flavonoid (hesperidin and gallocatechin) structures of the dye extracts. The optimized flavonoid structures are calculated using Density functional theory (DFT) at 6-31+G(d,p) level. The rutinosyl group of the hesperidin pigment (Citrus reticulata) will be further investigated compared to the gallocatechin (Musa acuminata) pigment. The acidity of the dye extract is treated by adding 2% acetic acid. The energy levels of the HOMO-LUMO dyes are measured by a combined Tauc plot and cyclic voltammetry contrasted with the DFT data. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy will be performed to model the dye electron transfer. As for the rutinosyl group presence and the acidic treatment, the acidified Citrus reticulata cell under continuous light exposure of 100mW·cm-2 yields a short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 3.23mA/cm2, a photovoltage (Voc) of 0.48V, and a fill factor of 0.45 corresponding to an energy conversion efficiency (η) of 0.71% because the shifting down HOMO-LUMO edges and the broadening dye's absorbance evaluated by a combined spectroscopic and TD-DFT method. The result also leads to the longest diffusion length of 32.2μm, the fastest electron transit of 0.22ms, and the longest electron lifetime of 4.29ms.

Abstract
The components for connecting high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were investigated to determine estrogen in the water environment, including heating for atomization, solvent removal, sample deposition, drive control, spectrum collection, chip swap, cleaning and drying. Results showed that when the atomization temperature was increased to 388 K, the interference of mobile phase components (methanol, H2O, acetonitrile, and NaH2PO4) were completely removed in the IR measurement of estrogen, with 0.999 of similarity between IR spectra obtained after separation and corresponding to the standard IR spectra. In experiments with varying HPLC injection volumes, high similarity for IR spectra was obtained at 20 ul injection volume at 0.01 mg/L BPA while a useful IR spectrum for 10 ng/L BPA was obtained at 80 ul injection volume. In addition, estrogen concentrations in the natural water samples were calculated semi-quantitatively from the peak intensities of IR spectrum in the mid-infrared region.

Abstract
Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used to characterize 40 commercial tannins, including condensed and hydrolyzable chemical classes, provided as powder extracts from suppliers. Spectral data were processed to detect typical molecular vibrations of tannins bearing different chemical groups and of varying botanical origin (univariate qualitative analysis). The mid-infrared region between 4000 and 520 cm(-1) was analyzed, with a particular emphasis on the vibrational modes in the fingerprint region (1800-520 cm(-1)), which provide detailed information about skeletal structures and specific substituents. The region 1800-1500 cm(-1) contained signals due to hydrolyzable structures, while bands due to condensed tannins appeared at 1300-900 cm(-1) and exhibited specific hydroxylation patterns useful to elucidate the structure of the flavonoid monomeric units. The spectra were investigated further using principal component analysis for discriminative purposes, to enhance the ability of infrared spectroscopy in the classification and quality control of commercial dried extracts and to enhance their industrial exploitation.

Abstract
The interactions between native, thermally modified lactoferrin (LF) and (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) at pH 3.5, 5.0, and 6.5 were investigated. Turbidity, particle size, and charge of LF-EGCG complexes were mainly dominated by pH value and secondary structure of protein. At pH 3.5 and 5.0, LF-EGCG complexes were nanoparticles which had high ζ-potential, small size, and soluble state. At pH 6.5, they were submicrometer particles which exhibited low ζ-potential, large size, and insoluble state. The infrared spectra of freeze-dried LF-EGCG complexes showed that they were different from LF and EGCG alone. Far-UV CD results indicated that heat denaturation might irreversibly alter the secondary structure of LF and EGCG induced a progressive increase in the proportion of α-helix structure at the cost of β-sheet and unordered coil structure of LF at pH 3.5, 5.0, and 6.5. EGCG exhibited a strong affinity for native LF but a weak affinity for thermally modified LF at pH 5.0 and 6.5. An inverse result was observed at pH 3.5. These results could have potential for the development of food formulations based on LF as a carrier of bioactive compounds.

Abstract
A suite of three green tea-containing Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) has been issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST): SRM 3254 Camellia sinensis (Green Tea) Leaves, SRM 3255 Camellia sinensis (Green Tea) Extract, and SRM 3256 Green Tea-Containing Solid Oral Dosage Form. The materials are characterized for catechins, xanthine alkaloids, theanine, and toxic elements. As many as five methods were used in assigning certified and reference values to the constituents, with measurements carried out at NIST and at collaborating laboratories. The materials are intended for use in the development and validation of new analytical methods, and for use as control materials as a component in the support of claims of metrological traceability.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Ilex paraguariensis is known to contain compounds with antioxidant properties, such as phenolic acids, and its stimulant properties are attributed to methylxanthines, such as caffeine. The aims of this study were to evaluate the phenolic, methylxanthinic, and tannin composition of a mate residue (mate powder), to compare the quali-quantitative phenolic composition and the antioxidant potential of extracts obtained from distinct solvent systems. Among the extracts prepared with different solvents, the 80% methanol extract showed the highest total polyphenol content (11.51 g/100 g) and antioxidant activity. HPLC analysis showed that 4,5 dicaffeoylquinic acid is the major component of the phenolic fraction of mate powder. The caffeine, theobromine, and tannin contents in mate powder were 1.01, 0.10, and 0.29 g/100 g, respectively. Consumption of mate powder would significantly contribute to antioxidant and stimulant intake, providing high amounts of phenolic acids, tannins, and methylxanthines with biological effects potentially beneficial for human health. PRACTICAL APPLICATION This article contributes to the minimization of residues in yerba-mate processing.
