Abstract
BACKGROUND Saccharomyces cerevisiae plays a pivotal role in various industrial processes, including bioethanol production and alcoholic beverage fermentation. However, during these fermentations, yeasts are subjected to various environmental stresses, such as ethanol stress, which hinder cell growth and ethanol production. Genetic manipulations and the addition of natural ingredients rich in antioxidants to the culture have been shown to overcome this. Here, we investigated the potential of persimmon tannins, known for their antioxidative properties, to enhance the ethanol stress tolerance of yeast. RESULTS Assessment of the effects of 6.25 mg mL-1 persimmon tannins after 48 h incubation revealed cell viability to be increased by 8.9- and 6.5-fold compared to the control treatment with and without 12.5% ethanol, respectively. Furthermore, persimmon tannins reduced ethanol-induced oxidative stress, including the production of cellular reactive oxygen species and acceleration of lipid peroxidation. However, persimmon tannins could hardly overcome ethanol-induced cell membrane damage. CONCLUSION The findings herein indicate the potential of persimmon tannin as a protective agent for increasing yeast tolerance to ethanol stress by restricting oxidative damage but not membrane damage. Overall, this study unveils the implications of persimmon tannins for industries relying on yeast. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
1,5-Anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) is a sensitive biomarker for real-time detection of diabetes mellitus. In this study, an electrochemical biosensor to specifically detect 1,5-AG levels based on persimmon-tannin-reduced graphene oxide-PtPd nanocomposites (PT-rGO-PtPd NCs), which were modified onto the surface of a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE), was designed. The PT-rGO-PtPd NCs were prepared by using PT as the film-forming material and ascorbic acid as the reducing agent. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy analysis were used to characterise the newly synthesised materials. PT-rGO-PtPd NCs present a synergistic effect not only to increase the active surface area to bio-capture more targets, but also to exhibit electrocatalytic efficiency to catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). A sensitive layer is formed by pyranose oxidase (PROD) attached to the surface of PT-rGO-PtPd NC/SPCE. In the presence of 1,5-AG, PROD catalyzes the oxidization of 1,5-AG to generate 1,5-anhydrofuctose (1,5-AF) and H2O2 which can be decomposed into H2O under the synergistic catalysis of PT-rGO-PtPd NCs. The redox reaction between PT and its oxidative product (quinones, PTox) can be enhanced simultaneously by PT-rGO-PtPd NCs, and the current signal was recorded by the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) method. Under optimal conditions, our biosensor shows a wide range (0.1-2.0 mg/mL) for 1,5-AG detection with a detection limit of 30 μg/mL (S/N = 3). Moreover, our electrochemical biosensor exhibits acceptable applicability with recoveries from 99.80 to 106.80%. In summary, our study provides an electrochemical method for the determination of 1,5-AG with simple procedures, lower costs, good reproducibility, and acceptable stability.

Abstract
Tannins derived from natural plant sources are known to provide many health benefits to humans and animals. Among the various tannins, those derived from persimmon (Diospyros kaki) have exhibited strong inactivating effects against pathogens that induce diseases in humans. However, few studies have focused on the antiviral effects of persimmon tannin against pathogen-induced diseases in animals. In this study, we investigated the antiviral effects of persimmon tannin against various avian influenza viruses revealing that tannin at a concentration of 1.0 mg ml-1 reduced viral infectivity in >6.0-log scale against all tested avian influenza viruses. In addition, this persimmon tannin concentration effectively inhibited the receptor binding and membrane fusion abilities of viral hemagglutinin (HA), which play important roles in avian influenza virus infection. These results suggest that persimmon tannin inactivates the HA of avian influenza viruses and reduces their infectivity. Persimmon tannin is a safer natural substance than the currently used chemical compound related to antiviral substance. When inactivation of the viruses which are present in environmental water such as roosting water of wild birds will be needed, persimmon tannin is expected to become an antiviral resource that may prevent the spread of several avian influenza virus subtypes.

Abstract
Antioxidants are molecules that can prevent the harmful effects of oxygen, help capture and neutralize free radicals, and thus eliminate the damage of free radicals to the human body. Persimmon tannin (PT) has excellent antioxidant activity, which is closely related to its molecular structure. We report here a comparative study of four characteristic structural units from PT (epicatechin gallate (ECG), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), A-type linked ECG dimer (A-ECG dimer), A-type linked EGCG dimer (A-EGCG dimer)) to explore the structure-activity relationship by using the density functional theory. Based on the antioxidation mechanism of hydrogen atom transfer, the most favorable active site for each molecule exerts antioxidant activity is determined. The structural parameters, molecular electrostatic potential, and frontier molecular orbital indicate that the key active sites are located on the phenolic hydroxyl group of the B ring for ECG and EGCG monomers, and the key active sites of the two dimers are located on the phenolic hydroxyl groups of the A and D' rings. The natural bond orbital and bond dissociation energy of the phenolic hydroxyl hydrogen atom show that the C11-OH in the ECG monomer and the C12-OH in the EGCG monomer are the most preferential sites, respectively. The most active site of the two A-linked dimers is likely located on the D' ring C20' phenolic hydroxyl group. Based on computational analysis of quantum chemical parameters, the A-ECG dimer is a more potent antioxidant than the A-EGCG dimer, ECG, and EGCG. This computational analysis provides the structure-activity relationship of the four characteristic units which will contribute to the development of the application of PT antioxidants in the future.

Abstract
Regulation of postprandial blood glucose levels is an effective therapeutic proposal for type 2 diabetes treatment. In this study, the effect of persimmon tannin on starch digestion with different amylose levels was investigated both in vitro and in vivo. Oral administration of persimmon tannin-starch complexes significantly suppressed the increase of blood glucose levels and the area under the curve (AUC) in a dose-dependent manner compared with starch treatment alone in an in vivo rat model. Further study proved that persimmon tannin could not only interact with starch directly but also inhibit α-amylase and α-glucosidase strongly, with IC50 values of 0.35 and 0.24 mg/mL, separately. In addition, 20 μg/mL of persimmon tannin significantly decreased glucose uptake and transport in Caco-2 cells model. Overall, our data suggested that persimmon tannin may alleviate postprandial hyperglycemia through limiting the digestion of starch as well as inhibiting the uptake and transport of glucose.
