Abstract
Quinones represent a class of crude organic compounds ubiquitously distributed in nature. Their distinctive quinone-type structure confers upon them unique properties and applications. Quinones demonstrate significant biological activities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antitumor properties. Additionally, they demonstrate noteworthy physicochemical characteristics, including excellent dyeing properties and stability. Given their diverse qualities, quinones hold significant promise for applications in industrial manufacturing, healthcare, and food production, thus garnering considerable attention in recent years. While there is a growing body of research on quinones, the existing literature falls short of providing a comprehensive review encompassing recent advancements in this field along with established knowledge. This paper offers a comprehensive review of research progress for quinones, encompassing structural classification, source synthesis, extraction methods, properties, functions, and specific applications. It serves as a reference and theoretical foundation for the further development and utilization of quinones.

Simultaneous rapid detection of glycyrrhizin and sennoside A in Daiokanzoto samples by lateral flow immunoassay. PHYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS : PCA 2024; 35:678-689. [PMID: 38219281 DOI: 10.1002/pca.3321] [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: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Glycyrrhizin (GLY) and sennoside A (SA) are characteristic bioactive marker compounds of the Kampo medicine Daiokanzoto. Their accurate detection in blends of Rhei rhizoma and Glycyrrhizae radix of several species (4:1 or 4:2) is essential for quality control and to ensure therapeutic efficacy. A rapid, efficient assay can significantly facilitate their detection. OBJECTIVE To establish a rapid qualitative assay for GLY and SA detection, a lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) was developed using specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) nanoparticles. METHODOLOGY This assay harnesses the competitive binding of mAb nanoparticles to the immobilized analytes on test strips and free analytes in the samples. Two conjugates for detecting GLY and SA, GLY-bovine serum albumin and SA-human serum albumin, were separately immobilized on the test zones of LFA strips. The detection mechanism is reliant on the visual detection of color changes in the test zones. RESULTS When GLY and SA were present in samples, they contended with the immobilized conjugates on the strip to bind with the mAb nanoparticles and produced distinct color patterns in the test zones. The limits of detection of the assay for GLY and SA were both 3.13 μg/mL. The capability of the LFA was substantiated using plant samples and Daiokanzoto, and its alignment with indirect competitive ELISA results was confirmed. CONCLUSION The introduced LFA is a groundbreaking procedure that offers a rapid, straightforward, and sensitive method for simultaneously detecting GLY and SA in Daiokanzoto samples. It is instrumental in ensuring product quality.

Tian D, Huang L, Zhang Z, Tian Z, Ge S, Wang C, Hu Y, Wang Y, Yang J. A novel approach for quantitative determination of cellulose content in tobacco via 2D HSQC NMR spectroscopy. Carbohydr Res 2023; 526:108790. [PMID: 36933368 DOI: 10.1016/j.carres.2023.108790] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Revised: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 03/11/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023]
Abstract
Cellulose is an important component of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) cell walls, which can be precursors for many harmful compounds in smoke. Traditional cellulose content analysis methods involve sequential extraction and separation steps, which are time-consuming and environmentally unfriendly. In this study, a novel method was first introduced to analyze cellulose content in tobacco via two-dimensional heteronuclear single quantum coherence (2D HSQC) NMR spectroscopy. The method was based on derivatization approach to allow the dissolution of insoluble polysaccharide fractions of tobacco cell walls in DMSO‑d6/pyridine-d5 (4:1 v/v) for NMR analysis. The NMR results suggested that besides the main NMR signals of cellulose, partial signals of hemicellulose including mannopyranose, arabinofuranose, and galactopyranose units could also be identified. In addition, the utilization of relaxation reagents has proved to be an effective way to improve the sensitivity of 2D NMR spectroscopy, which was beneficial for quantification of biological samples with limited quantities. To overcome the limitations of quantification using 2D NMR, the calibration curve of cellulose with 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene as internal reference was constructed and thus the accurate measurement of cellulose in tobacco was achieved. Compared with the chemical method, the interesting method was simple, reliable, and environmentally friendly, which provided a new insight for quantitative determination and structure analysis of plant macromolecules in complex samples.
