Abstract
In this work, we report the synthesis of poly (quinine-co-itaconic acid) incorporated graphene oxide composite that is electro-active and photo-active simultaneously. The poly (quinine-co-itaconic acid)@rGO composite was successfully utilized for electrochemical detection and photocatalytic degradation of hydroquinone (HQ). HQ is recognized as an environmental pollutant because of its high toxicity to human health even at low concentrations. The synthesized composite was characterized using different characterization techniques i.e. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffractometry (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) and zeta potential. The characterization studies revealed the net negative surface charge of -17.6 mV for poly (quinine-co-itaconic acid)@rGO composite that confirms its stability. Moreover, the XRD and FTIR studies confirmed the fabrication of poly (quinine-co-itaconic acid)@rGO composite. The electrochemical properties of synthesized composite were determined via cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy which showed high conductivity and charge transfer kinetics. Under optimized condition, the sensor showed excellent response for hydroquinone i.e. potential window from -0.6 to 0.6 V at scan rate 50 mV s-1 and borate buffer of pH 8 as supporting electrolyte. The developed method was comprehensively validated and found linear between 0.1 to 40 μM of HQ, with limit of detection 0.03 μM and limit of quantification 0.1 μM, respectively. The real water and personal care products samples were used to check the applicability of developed sensor and good percent recovery was achieved. The synthesized poly (quinine-co-itaconic acid)@rGO composite was also utilized for photocatalytic degradation of HQ and the degradation efficiency was obtained as 99% with dosage of 0.5 g L-1 under optimized conditions such as solution pH 7, initial concentration of HQ 10 mg L-1, catalyst dosage of 5 mg and irradiation time of 40 min, respectively. The degradation efficiency of poly (quinine-co-itaconic acid)@rGO composite was also evaluated in real water samples from industry and river.

Abstract
This work reports the synthesis of poly (itaconic acid) by thermal polymerization mediated by 2,2'-Azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride. Furthermore, physical hydrogels were prepared by using high molecular weight poly (itaconic acid) characterized by low dispersity and laponite RD. The hydrogels presented porous 3D network structures, with a high-water penetration of almost 2000 g/g of swelling ratio, which can allow the adsorption sites of both poly (itaconic acid) and laponite RD to be easily exposed and facilitate the adsorption of dyes. The water adsorption followed Schott's pseudo-second-order model. The mechanism of the adsorption process was investigated using 1H and 31P NMR. The hydrogel is able to fast adsorb by a combination of electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding by the synergic effect of the clay and poly (itaconic acid). Moreover, the prepared aerogels exhibited a fast removal of Basic Fuchsin, with an adsorption capacity of 67.56 mg/g and a high removal efficiency (~99 %). The adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model. Furthermore, the thermodynamic parameters showed that the BF process of adsorption was spontaneous and feasible, endothermic, and followed physisorption. These results indicated that the PIA/laponite-based aerogel can be considered a promising adsorbent material in textile wastewater treatment.

[PMID: 37256307 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-023-04773-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Itaconic acid (IA) and its derivatives produced by fungi have significant potential as industrial feedstocks. We recently developed a method for the detection of these compounds based on their terminal C-C double bonds. However, the presence of reducing agents, such as glucose and other fungal metabolites, leads to undesirable side reactions, and consequently, deteriorates the detection specificity. Therefore, we developed a fluorescence detection method for IA and its derivatives underpinned by a photoclick reaction. The photoclick reaction between conjugated IA and 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-phenyl-2H-tetrazole under UV irradiation affords a fluorescent product. No fluorescence was detected when succinic acid was subjected to the reaction, indicating that a terminal C-C double bond is required to induce fluorescence. Optimal reaction conditions were determined to be a combination of 80% final dimethyl sulfoxide concentration, 30-s UV irradiation, and a pH of 2. Two weeks after the reaction at 4 °C, 89.0% of the initial intensity was retained, indicating that the reaction product was relatively stable. Glucose and kojic acid did not induce fluorescence after the reaction, indicating that these reducing agents did not affect fluorescence. IA was detected in a culture of Aspergillus terreus, and its quantification using the photoclick reaction was in agreement with the results obtained using high-performance liquid chromatography analysis. Interestingly, the IA derivative avenaciolide present in submillimolar quantities was also detectable in a culture of Aspergillus avenaceus using this method. The established method will enable the development of high-throughput screening methods to identify fungi that produce IA and its derivatives.

Abstract
AIM Aspergillus niger S17-5 produces two alkylitaconic acids, 9-hydroxyhexylitaconic acid (9-HHIA) and 10-hydroxyhexylitaconic acid (10-HHIA), which have cytotoxic and polymer building block properties. In this study, we characterized the production of 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA by addition of their expected precursor, caprylic acid, to a culture of A. niger S17-5, and demonstrated batch fermentation of 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA in a jar fermenter with DO-stat. METHODS AND RESULTS Production titres of 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA from 3% glucose in a flask after 25 days cultivation were 0·35 and 1·01 g l-1 respectively. Addition of 0·22 g l-1 of caprylic acid to a suspension of resting cells of A. niger S17-5 led to 32% enhancement of total 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA production compared to no addition. No enhancement of the production of 9-HHIA or 10-HHIA by the addition of oxaloacetic acid was observed. Addition of caprylic acid to the culture at mid-growth phase was more suitable for 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA production due to less cell growth inhibition by caprylic acid. DO-stat batch fermentation with 3% glucose and 14·4 g l-1 of caprylic acid in a 1·5 l jar fermenter resulted in the production titres of 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA being 0·48 and 1·54 g l-1 respectively after 10 days of cultivation. CONCLUSIONS Addition of caprylic acid to the culture of A. niger S17-5 enhances 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA production. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY These results suggest that 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA are synthesized with octanoyl-CoA derived from caprylic acid, and that the supply of octanoyl-CoA is a rate-limiting step in 9-HHIA and 10-HHIA production. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report regarding the fermentation of naturally occurring itaconic acid derivatives in a jar fermenter.

Abstract
Itaconic acid possessing a vinylidene group, which is mainly produced by fungi, is used as a biobased platform chemical and shows distinctive bioactivities. On the other hand, some fungi and lichens produce itaconic acid derivatives possessing itaconic acid skeleton, and the number of the derivatives is currently more than seventy. Based on the molecular structures, they can be categorized into two groups, alkylitaconic acids and α-methylene-γ-butyrolactones. Interestingly, some itaconic acid derivatives show versatile functions such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, and plant growth-regulating activities. The vinylidene group of itaconic acid derivatives likely participates in these functions. It is suggested that α-methylene-γ-butyrolactones are biosynthesized from alkylitaconic acids which are first biosynthesized from acyl-CoA and oxaloacetic acid. Some modifying enzymes such as hydroxylase and dehydratase are likely involved in the further modification after biosynthesis of their precursors. This contributes to the diversity of itaconic acid derivatives. In this review, we summarize their structures, functions, and biosynthetic pathways together with a discussion of a strategy for the industrial use. KEY POINTS: • Itaconic acid derivatives can be categorized into alkylitaconic acids and α-methylene-γ-butyrolactones. • The vinylidene group of itaconic acid derivatives likely participates in their versatile function. • It is suggested that α-methylene-γ-butyrolactones are biosynthesized from alkylitaconic acids which are first synthesized from acyl-CoA and oxaloacetic acid.
