As the bioavailability of flavonoids is influenced by intestinal metabolism, we have investigated the microbial deconjugation and degradation of several flavonols and flavonol glycosides using the pig cecum in vitro model system developed in our group. For this model system the microbiota was directly isolated from the cecal lumen of freshly slaughtered pigs. The characterization of the cecal microbiota by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with 16S rRNA-based oligonucleotide probes confirmed the suitability of the model system for studying intestinal metabolism by the human microbiota. We have investigated the microbial degradation of quercetin-3-O-beta-d-rutinoside 1, quercetin-3-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside 2, quercetin-4'-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside 3, quercetin-3-O-beta-d-galactopyranoside 4, quercetin-3- O-beta-d-rhamnopyranoside 5, quercetin-3- O-[alpha-l-dirhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-(1-->6)-beta-d-glucopyranoside 6, kaempferol-3-O-[alpha-l-dirhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-(1-->6)-beta-d-glucopyranoside 7, apigenin 8, apigenin-8- C-glucoside (vitexin) 9, and feruloyl-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside 10 (100 microM), representing flavonoids with different aglycones, sugar moieties, and types of glycosidic bonds. The degradation rate was monitored using HPLC-DAD. The flavonol O-glycosides under study were almost completely metabolized by the intestinal microbiota within 20 min and 4 h depending on the sugar moiety and the type of glycosidic bond. The degradation rates of the quercetin monoglycosides showed a clear dependency on the hydroxyl pattern of the sugar moiety. The degradation of 2 with all hydroxyl groups of the glucose in the equatorial position was the fastest. The intestinal metabolism of di- and trisaccharides was much slower compared to the monoglycosides. The structure of the aglycone has not much influence on the intestinal metabolism; however, the type of glycosidic bond ( C- or O-glycoside) has substantial influence on the degradation rate. The liberated aglycones were completely metabolized within 8 h. Phenolic compounds such as 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid 12, 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid 13, and phloroglucinol 18 were detected by GC-MS as main degradation products.  相似文献

Our research program on the Central American fooder plant Gliricidia sepium led to the discovery of two new triterpene saponins (1 and 2) and known aromatic compounds. The new compounds possess 3beta,21beta, 24-trihydroxy-22-oxoolean-12-ene as an aglycon. The oligosaccharide moiety linked to C-3 of the aglycon contained two pyranoses (glucuronic acid and xylose); in addition the glucose residue of both 1 and 2 is also linked to C-21. Structure elucidation of these new compounds through the extensive use of 1D and 2D NMR techniques have provided detailed information about the sapogenin and the saccharide chains, inclusive of sugar sequence and the position of glycosylation.  相似文献

Storage of megastigma-4,6,7-trien-3,9-diol (5), and megastigma-3,4-dien-7-yn-9-ol (6) in aqueous ethanol solution at pH 3.0 and 3.2 gave exclusively damascenone (1) and damascenone adducts at room temperature. The diol (5) had half-lives for the conversion of 32 and 48 h at pH 3.0 and pH 3.2, respectively. The acetylenic alcohol (6) had half-lives of 40 and 65 h at the same pH levels. In order to study the reactivity of the C-9 hydroxyl function in 5 and in the previously investigated allenic triol 2, two model compounds, megastigma-4,6,7-trien-9-ol (7) and megastigma-6,7-dien-9-ol (8) were synthesized. No 1,3-transposition of oxygen to form analogues of damascenone was observed when 7 and 8 were subjected to mild acidic conditions. Such transposition takes place only with highly conjugated acetylenic precursors such as 6 or tertiary allenic alcohols such as 2. The placement of glucose at C-3 of 5 and at C-9 of 6 gave the glycosides 9 and 10, respectively. The effect of such glucoconjugation was to increase the observed half-lives by a factor of only 1.6-1.7 for the allenic glucoside 9, and by 2.1-2.2 for the acetylenic glucoside 10. These studies indicate that the effect of glycosylation on damascenone formation is probably not important on the time scale of wine making and maturation.  相似文献

Four flavonol glycosides were isolated from an extract of sea buckthorn pomace (Hippopha? rhamnoides) by Sephadex LH-20 gel chromatography and semipreparative HPLC. Their structures were elucidated by hydrolysis studies, ESI-MS(n), UV, and (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. The occurrence of the major flavonol glycoside kaempferol 3-O-beta-sophoroside-7-O-alpha-rhamnoside in sea buckthorn is described here for the first time. A further 21 flavonol glycosides of Sephadex LH-20 fractions of sea buckthorn pomace were characterized by HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS. The characteristic MS-MS and MS(3) fragmentation pattern of flavonol glycosides previously identified in sea buckthorn juice and of flavonol glycosides identified by NMR spectroscopy gave valuable indications for their identification. The results demonstrate that loss of the sugar moiety from C-7 of the aglycon is more favored than fission of the glycosidic linkage at the C-3 position. Thus, most of the compounds identified were 7-rhamnosides of isorhamnetin, kaempferol, and quercetin, which exhibit different substitution patterns at the C-3 position, mainly glucosides, rutinosides, and sophorosides. In addition, numerous flavonol glycosides were detected lacking a sugar moiety at C-7. Finally, eight flavonol derivatives were identified that are acylated by hydroxybenzoic or hydoxycinnamic acids.  相似文献

The volatiles formed from [1-(13)C]-ribose and cysteine during 4 h at 95 degrees C in aqueous phosphate buffer (pH 5) were analyzed by headspace SPME in combination with GC-MS. The extent and position of the labeling were determined using MS data. The identified volatiles comprised sulfur compounds such as 2-[(13)C]methyl-3-furanthiol, 2-[(13)CH(2)]furfurylthiol, [1-(13)C]-3-mercaptopentan-2-one, [1-(13)C]-3-mercaptobutan-2-one, [4-(13)C]-3-mercaptobutan-2-one, and 3-mercaptobutan-2-one. The results confirm furan-2-carbaldehyde as an intermediate of 2-furfurylthiol, as well as 1,4-dideoxypento-2,3-diulose as an intermediate of 2-methyl-3-furanthiol and 3-mercaptopentan-2-one. Loss of the C-1 and C-5 carbon moieties during the formation of 3-mercaptobutan-2-one suggests two different mechanisms leading to the key intermediate butane-2,3-dione.  相似文献

Aqueous sugar (glucose or xylose)-lysine model systems were heated at 80 degrees C for 6 h with the pH maintained at a predetermined value (3, 4, or 5). Selected compounds were isolated by combinations of solvent extraction and semipreparative HPLC, prior to identification by NMR and mass spectrometry. Two compounds were identified from the pH 5 glucose system and were identified as epsilon-[2-formyl-5-(hydroxymethyl)pyrrole-1-yl]-L-norleucine (pyrraline) and the new compound, 1-(5-carboxy-5-aminopentyl)-2-formyl-3-(1,2,3-trihydroxypropyl)pyrrole. A third compound was partially characterized. 2-Acetyl-5-hydroxymethyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyridinone was identified in the pH 3 xylose system, and the new compound, 8-furan-2-yl-methyl-5-hydroxymethyl-5,6-dihydro-indolizine-1,7-dione, was identified in the pH 4 xylose system. 2-Furfurylidene-4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone was identified in both xylose systems. Mechanisms of formation are proposed for the novel compounds.  相似文献

The ability of three Saccharomyces wine yeasts (S. cerevisiae AWRI 838, S. cerevisiae AWRI 1537, and S. bayanus AWRI 1375) to liberate volatile compounds from sugar-bound aroma precursors was investigated using synthetic and grape glycosides under different experimental conditions. In model systems involving the incubation of yeast cells with either synthetic or grape-derived glycosides under conditions more favorable for glycosidase activities and less favorable for acid-catalyzed hydrolysis (pH 5.0 and 30 degrees C), all yeast strains studied proved to be capable of hydrolyzing glycosides, with S. bayanus AWRI 1375 displaying greater hydrolytic activity than S. cerevisiae AWRI 838 and AWRI 1537. During the fermentation of a chemically defined grape juice-like medium containing glycosidic precursors extracted from Vitis vinifera cv. White Frontignac (synonym Muscat à Petit Grains Blanc), all yeasts promoted a significant hydrolysis of different precursors, which varied according to the chemical structures of both the sugar and the aglycon moieties, as determined by GC-MS analysis of trifluoroacetylated derivatives. Hydrolysis of the White Frontignac derived glycosidic precursors during fermentation resulted in the release of monoterepene alcohols, terpene oxides, terpene diols, and 3-oxo-alpha-ionol, demonstrating the significant potential of these yeast strains to contribute to wine varietal volatile composition during alcoholic fermentation.  相似文献

Maillard model systems consisting of labeled D-[(13)C]glucoses, L-[(15)N]methionine, and L-[methyl-(13)C]methionine, have been utilized to identify the amino acid and carbohydrate fragmentation pathways occurring in the model system through Py-GC/MS analysis. The label incorporation analyses have indicated that the carbohydrate moiety produces 1-deoxy- and 3-deoxyglucosones and undergoes C(2)/C(4) and C(3)/C(3) cleavages to produce glycolaldehyde, tetrose, and C(3)-reactive sugar derivatives such as acetol, glyceraldehyde, and pyruvaldehyde. Glycolaldehyde was found to incorporate C-1, C-2 (70%) and C-5, C-6 (30%) glucose carbon fragments, whereas the tetrose moiety incorporates only C-3, C-4, C-5, C-6 glucose carbon atoms. In addition, the major source of reactive C(3) fragments was found to contain C-4, C-5, C-6 sugar moiety. On the other hand, methionine alone also generated Strecker aldehyde as detected by its condensation product with 3-(methylthio)propylamine. Plausible mechanisms were proposed for the formation of the interaction products between sugar and amino acid degradation products on the basis of the label incorporation patterns.  相似文献

Two new oleanene saponins were isolated from the MeOH extract of the shell of Argania spinosa.They possess protobassic acid and 16alpha-protobassic acid as aglycons. The disaccharide moiety linked to C-3 of the aglycon is made up of two glucose units; the pentasaccharide moiety linked to C-28 is made up of arabinose, xylose, and three rhamnose units. Their structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR experiments including (1)H-(1)H (DQF-COSY, 1D TOCSY, and 2D HOHAHA) and (1)H-(13)C (HSQC and HMBC) spectroscopy along with mass spectrometry.  相似文献

Antioxidant and cyclooxygenase activities of fatty acids found in food   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Several commercially available C-8 to C-24 saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (1-29) were assayed for cyclooxygenase-I (COX-I) and cyclooxygenase-II (COX-II) inhibitory and antioxidant activities. Among the saturated fatty acids tested at 60 microg mL(-1), there was an increase in antioxidant activity with increasing chain length from octanoic acid to myristic acid (C-8-C-14) and a decrease thereafter. All unsaturated fatty acids tested at 60 microg mL(-1) showed good antioxidant activity except for undecylenic acid (12), cis-5-dodecenoic acid (13), and nervonic acid (29). The highest inhibitory activities among the saturated fatty acids tested on cyclooxygenase enzymes COX-I and COX-II were observed for decanoic acid to lauric acid (3-5) at 100 microg mL(-1). Similarly, among the unsaturated fatty acids tested, the highest activities were observed for cis-8,11,14-eicosatrienoic acid (25) and cis-13,16-docosadienoic acid (27) at 100 microg mL(-1).  相似文献

We have previously cloned and characterized the cDNAs of three isoforms of the 8S globulin of mungbean, expressed the major 8Salpha isoform in Escherichia coli, and purified and successfully crystallized it (Bernardo, A. E. N.; Garcia, R. N.; Adachi, M.; Angeles, J. G. C.; Kaga, A; Ishimoto, M.; Utsumi, S.; Tecson-Mendoza, E. M. J. Agric. Food Chem. 2004, 52, 2552-2560). Herein, we report the physicochemical and emulsifying properties of the native 8S and recombinant 8Salpha globulin or vicilin. The circular dichroism spectra analysis of the native 8S and recombinant 8Salpha globulins revealed that the recombinant 8Salpha formed a secondary structure close to that of the native 8S. Further, gel filtration analysis showed that 8Salpha was able to assemble into trimers. The native 8S and recombinant 8Salpha globulins were soluble at pH 3.4 and at pH 7.4-9.0 at low ionic strength, mu = 0.08. Interestingly, the native 8S was more soluble at pH 7.0 and pH 7.4 than the recombinant 8Salpha at mu = 0.08. Both forms were very soluble at pH 3.4-9.0 at high ionic strength, mu = 0.50. The native form exhibited a higher T(m) (69.2, 79.5, and 83.8 degrees C) than the recombinant form (65.6, 71.6, 77.5 degrees C) at mu = 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5, respectively. The recombinant form was found to have greater surface hydrophobicity than the native form. There was little difference in the emulsifying ability between the native 8S and 8Salpha at pH 3.4 and pH 7.6. The results indicate that the presence of N-linked glycans is not essential in the assembly and stable conformation of the mungbean vicilin. However, the N-linked glycans might have contributed to the higher solubility at low ionic strength, greater thermal stability, and decreased surface hydrophobicity of the native vicilin as compared to the recombinant 8Salpha. On the other hand, the N-linked glycans showed little effect on the emulsifying ability of the protein.  相似文献

High-performance anion exchange chromatography coupled with a pulsed amperometric detection system (HPAEC-PAD) was used to evaluate the extent of chemical hydrolysis of three fructooligosaccharides (FOS) including 1-kestose (beta-D-Fru-(2-->1)(2)-alpha-D-glucopyranoside, GF2), nystose (beta-D-Fru-(2-->1)(3)-alpha-D-glucopyranoside, GF3), and fructofuranosylnystose (beta-D-Fru-(2-->1)(4)-alpha-D-glucopyranoside, GF4). A kinetic study was carried out at 80, 90, 100, 110, and 120 degrees C in aqueous solutions buffered at pH values of 4.0, 7.0, and 9.0. Under each experimental condition, the determination of the respective amounts of reactants and hydrolysis products showed that FOS hydrolysis obeyed pseudo-first-order kinetics as the extent of hydrolysis, which decreased at increasing pH values, increased with temperature. The three oligomers were found to be degraded mainly under acidic conditions, and at the highest temperature value (120 degrees C), a quick and complete acid degradation of each FOS was observed. Using the Arrhenius equation, rate constants, half-life values, and activation energies were calculated and compared with those obtained from sucrose under the same experimental conditions. It appeared that the hydrolysis of FOS took place much more easily at acidic pH than at neutral or basic pH values.  相似文献

A model reaction system was used to generate pure thiosulfinates (3) from S-alk(en)yl-L-cysteine sulfoxides (1) to facilitate studies on the intrinsic pH and thermal sensitivities of individual thiosulfinate species. Thiosulfinate decay could be characterized as first-order processes over the pH range of 1.2-9.0 and at 20-80 degrees C. The stability of thiosulfinates was greatest at pH 4.5-5.5, followed by pH 1.2, pH 6.5-7.5, and pH 8.0-9.0. Thiosulfinates with longer and saturated alk(en)yl groups were generally more stable than those with shorter and unsaturated alk(en)yl groups. Thiosulfinates underwent thioalkyl-exchange reactions at pH 8-9 without loss of total thiosulfinate levels within 60-90 min at 20 degrees C.  相似文献

A novel approach for the quantification of the degree of condensation at the C(5) position of etherified and phenolic phenylpropane (C-9) units of in situ lignin is described. This is achieved by degrading unmethylated and methylated wood by thioacidolysis and analyzing the resultant product mixtures by quantitative (31)P NMR spectroscopy. Applying this new method to compression wood and normal wood from Pinus radiata showed that, whereas 41-47% of etherified guaiacyl C-9 units are condensed at the C(5) position, almost all phenolic guaiacyl C-9 units exist as uncondensed moieties. Analysis of milled wood lignin (MWL) isolated from the same wood by (31)P NMR spectroscopy before and after thioacidolysis showed that the phenolic guaiacyl C-9 units were more condensed than those in the in situ lignin. This is likely due to partial cleavage of the more condensed etherified linkages during the lignin isolation, leading to a relative increase in condensed phenolic guaiacyl C-9 units.  相似文献

Application of aroma extract dilution analysis on the volatiles formed by reacting glucose and L-phenylalanine (30 min, 100 degrees C) revealed the Strecker aldehyde, phenylacetaldehyde (PA), and, in addition, phenylacetic acid (PAA) as the two key odorants among the volatiles formed. Quantitative measurements on alpha-dicarbonyl formation revealed that the 3-deoxyosone and glyoxal were formed as the first prominent sugar degradation products, whereas 2-oxopropanal became predominant after approximately 4 h at 100 degrees C. Among the four alpha-dicarbonyls analyzed, 2-oxopropanal proved to be the most effective in generating PA as well as PAA from phenylalanine, but the reaction parameters significantly influenced the ratio of both odorants; for example, at pH 3.0 the ratio of PA to PAA was 3:1, whereas at pH 9.0 the ratio was 1:5. Furthermore, in the presence of oxygen and copper ions the formation of the acid was further increased. 3-Deoxyosone and glucosone were found to be effective precursors of phenylacetaldehyde, but neither was very effective in acid generation. On the basis of the results, a new oxygen-dependent formation pathway of the Strecker reaction is proposed.  相似文献

Many Fusarium species produce trichothecenes, sesquiterpene epoxides that differ in patterns of oxygenation and esterification at carbon positions C-3, C-4, C-7, C-8, and C-15. For the first comprehensive and quantitative comparison of the effects of oxygenation and esterification on trichothecene phytotoxicity, we tested 24 precursors, intermediates, and end products of the trichothecene biosynthetic pathway in an Arabidopsis thaliana detached leaf assay. At 100 microM, the highest concentration tested, only the trichothecene precursor trichodiene was nontoxic. Among trichothecenes, toxicity varied more than 200-fold. Oxygenation at C-4, C-8, C-7/8, or C-15 was, on average, as likely to decrease as to increase toxicity. Esterification at C-4, C-8, or C-15 generally increased toxicity. Esterification at C-3 increased toxicity in one case and decreased toxicity in three of eight cases tested. Thus, the increase in structural complexity along the trichothecene biosynthetic pathway in Fusarium is not necessarily associated with an increase in phytotoxicity.  相似文献

通过室内模拟降雨试验,设置3种降雨强度(30,60,90 mm/h)和3种地表覆盖类型(裸土坡面、1 cm马尾松枯落物覆盖、1 cm马尾松灰烬覆盖),研究林火发生前后不同地表覆盖下的坡面产流产沙过程,明确枯落物和植物灰烬覆盖的减流减沙效益。结果表明:(1)相比裸坡,枯落物和灰烬覆盖下的坡面初始产流时间分别延长33%~80%和51%~200%,灰烬覆盖对延缓产流的效果更为明显;(2)相比裸坡,枯落物覆盖的减流效果稳定在12%~36%,而灰烬覆盖在中小雨强的减流效果高于70%,在90 mm/h雨强时减流效果降低至7%;(3)裸土坡面产流呈现先快速升高后稳定的趋势,而枯落物和灰烬覆盖坡面产流效果呈现"阶梯"形上升趋势;(4)枯落物覆盖能够减小径流携沙量和总产沙量,在3种雨强下减沙效益均高于85%,且高于同雨强下灰烬覆盖的减沙效益。枯落物覆盖的减流减沙效果在不同雨强下表现较为稳定,而灰烬覆盖的减流减沙效果受降雨强度的影响显著,且枯落物覆盖的减沙效益在3种雨强下均优于灰烬覆盖,说明在林火发生后地表覆盖改变是引起土壤侵蚀增加的重要因素之一。  相似文献

Kinetics and mechanism of cymoxanil degradation in buffer solutions   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The kinetics and mechanism(s) of the hydrolytic degradation of a compound are needed to evaluate a compound's abiotic degradation in the environment. In this paper, the hydrolysis of cymoxanil [2-cyano-N-[(ethylamino)carbonyl]-2-(methoxyimino) acetamide] was investigated in dark sterile aqueous solutions under a variety of pH conditions (pH 2.8-9.2) and temperatures (15-50 degrees C). Hydrolysis of cymoxanil was described by first-order kinetics, which was dependent on pH and temperature. Cymoxanil degraded rapidly at pH 9 (half-life = 31 min) and relatively slowly at pH 2.8 (half-life = 722 days). The effect of temperature on the rate of cymoxanil degradation was characterized using the Arrhenius equation with an estimated energy of activation of 117.1 kJ mol(-)(1). An increase in temperature of 10 degrees C resulted in a decrease in half-life by a factor of approximately 5. Three competing degradation pathways are proposed for the hydrolysis of cymoxanil, with two of the pathways accounting for approximately 90% of cymoxanil degradation. These two pathways involved either initial cyclization to 1-ethyldihydro-6-imino-2,3,5(3H)-pyrimidinetrione-5-(O-methyloxime) (1, Figure 1) or direct cleavage of the C-1 amide bond to form cyano(methoxyimino) acetic acid (7). The third pathway of degradation involved initial cyclization to 3-ethyl-4-(methoxyimino)-2,5-dioxo-4-imidazolidinecarbonitrile (8), which rapidly degrades into 1-ethyl-5-(methoxyimino)-2,4-imidazoline-2,4-dione (9). All three pathways eventually lead to the formation of the polar metabolite oxalic acid.  相似文献

β-Cyclodextrin (CD) was phosphorylated with phosphoryl chloride in aqueous alkaline media at different temperatures and pH values. The phosphorylated cyclodextrin (PCD) were characterized by phosphorus contents and positions of substitution as determined by 31P-NMR spectroscopy. Reaction of CD with equivmolar POCl3 for 3 hr at pH 12 and 45°C yielded in a PCD with a phosphorus content of 5.67%. The ratio of monoand diphosphate esters increased when the reaction temperature was raised from 25 to 60°C. The monoesterified phosphate groups were mainly located at C-6 of the anhydroglucose units when the reaction pH was 11 or 12. Reactions at pH 10, however, led to a higher degree of substitution at C-2 than at C-6. Phosphorylation enhanced the water solubility of CD. Solubility of a PCD (5.65% phosphorus) was 35% at pH 8 and 25°C. Simultaneously, solubility of the PCD in 25% ethanol in water was much greater than unsubstituted CD (22.3 vs. 2.8%). The PCD enhanced the water solubility of nonpolar compounds, such as β-carotene.  相似文献
