棘孢木霉挥发性次级代谢产物检测及抑菌活性分析

木霉是一类具有重要生防价值的丝状真菌。文中首先对分离自浙江省绍兴市和广东省佛山市共12株棘孢木霉Trichoderma asperellum进行平板拮抗评价,然后采用顶空固相微萃取气质联用法(HS-SPME-GC-MS)检测拮抗性较好的两株菌的挥发性次级代谢产物。结果表明,棘孢木霉ZJSX5003和GDFS1009菌丝生长迅速,对尖孢镰孢菌Fusariumoxysporum抑制率分别达73%和74%。挥发性次级代谢产物主要是醇类和酮类,其中包含异丁醇、异戊醇、3-甲基-3-丁烯-1-醇、3-羟基-2-丁酮、2,3-丁二醇和6-正戊基-2H-吡喃-2-酮(6-PAP)。进一步通过体外抑菌试验,证实6-PAP具有较好的抑制尖孢镰孢菌的效果,为开发以木霉菌代谢产物如6-PAP为主要成分的生防制剂提供指导。

Determination of haloacetic acids in human urine by headspace gas chromatography–mass spectrometry

Haloacetic acids (HAAs) are water disinfection byproducts (DBPs) formed by the reaction of chlorine oxidizing compounds with natural organic matter in water containing bromine. HAAs are second to trihalomethanes as the most commonly detected DBPs in surface drinking water and swimming pools. After oral exposure (drinking, showering, bathing and swimming), HAAs are rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and excreted in urine. Typical methods used to determine these compounds in urine (mainly from rodents) only deal with one or two HAAs and their sensitivity is inadequate to determine HAA levels in human urine, even those manual sample preparation protocols which are complex, costly, and neither handy nor amenable to automation. In the present communication, we report on a sensitive and straightforward method to determine the nine HAAs in human urine using static headspace (HS) coupled with GC–MS. Important parameters controlling derivatisation and HS extraction were optimised to obtain the highest sensitivity: 120 μl of dimethylsulphate and 100 μl of tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulphate (derivatisation regents) were selected, along with an excess of Na₂SO₄ (6 g per 12 ml of urine), an oven temperature of 70 °C and an equilibration time of 20 min. The method developed renders an efficient tool for the precise and sensitive determination of the nine HAAs in human urine (RSDs ranging from 6 to 11%, whereas LODs ranged from 0.01 to 0.1 μg/l). The method was applied in the determination of HAAs in urine from swimmers in an indoor swimming pool, as well as in that of non-swimmers. HAAs were not detected in the urine samples from non-swimmers and those of volunteers before their swims; therefore, the concentrations found after exposure were directly related to the swimming activity. The amounts of MCAA, DCAA and TCAA excreted from all swimmers are related to the highest levels in the swimming pool water.     

采用多次顶空固相微萃取分析拟南芥绿叶挥发性物质

顶空固相微萃取作为一种新的挥发性和半挥发性物质分析技术,被广泛应用于植物样品的定性分析。由于进行顶空分析时,挥发性组分间的基质效应以及较为复杂的扩散和吸附过程,定量分析一直是SPME分析应用的难题。目标分析物的量看作是达到吸附平衡后单一萃取的物质量的总和,则无需考虑分析样品在顶空、萃取涂层间的分配,同时可以消除基质效应。在利用标准物质进行校正后只需要一次顶空萃取,即可求出分析物质的总量。首先利用DVB/CAR/PDMS定性得到拟南芥挥发性物质的组成,然后采用CAR/PDMS涂层定量,分析了拟南芥的3种绿叶挥发性物质,优化后萃取条件为40℃萃取20min,相对标准偏差小于12%,在3株植物样品中这些挥发性物质的量为78.6~158.4ng.g-1。     

爱玉子花序挥发物成分以及对其传粉小蜂的吸引作用

利用动态顶空吸附法和GC-MS分析,研究接受期以及传粉或产卵5d后爱玉子(Ficus awkeotsang)雌、雄隐头花序挥发物成分。研究结果表明:爱玉子隐头花序挥发物的组成成分复杂,种类繁多,主要成分是对传粉小蜂具有显著吸引作用的芳樟醇。组成雌、雄花序的接受期挥发物信号的化合物种类与数量不同,但两者之间的共有化合物却占花序挥发物总量的70%以上,且接受期雌、雄花序挥发物组成比例相似,小蜂无法通过花序挥发物信号的差异,区别雌、雄花序,从而支持"榕树雌、雄花序接受期挥发物存在相互模拟现象"的假说。爱玉子传粉(或产卵)前后花序挥发物信号发生变化,表现在花序在传粉(或产卵)后,一些挥发性化合物在榕果中消失或相对含量减少(如芳樟醇),有些化合物的相对含量增加(如苯甲酸甲酯),并出现新的化合物(如2-乙基己醇);在化合物组成上,萜类化合物相对含量下降,芳香族化合物、脂肪族化合物相对含量上升。嗅觉仪实验表明爱玉子接受期雌、雄花序挥发物对其传粉榕小蜂有极显著的吸引作用,而传粉(或产卵)5d后的雌、雄花序挥发物对传粉榕小蜂有显著的趋避作用。传粉小蜂对雌、雄接受期花序挥发物的选择没有偏向性。榕果通过挥发物的释放量和成分的改变反映出花发育与被授粉(被产卵)状况,传粉小蜂通过接收榕果发出的化学信息,判断选择适合的寄主。研究对于爱玉子的高产栽培以及植物与昆虫专性共生化学生态学机制的理论研究具有重要的意义。     

贴梗海棠挥发性成分研究(英文)

首次采用顶空固相微萃取结合气质联用技术提取并分析了贴梗海棠花蕾和花的挥发油成分.结果发现,邻苯二甲酸二(2-乙基己基)酯在花蕾开放的过程中,含量从24.67%下降到1.77%,而己二酸二(2-乙基己基)酯的含量则从0%增加到47.23%,表明在贴梗海棠花蕾开放的过程中,在植物体内多种酶的共同作用下,二者存在着生物转化,依据此结果,我们提出邻苯二甲酸(2-乙基己基)酯与二酸二(2-乙基己基)酯在贴梗海棠开放过程中生物转化假说.

Solid-phase microextraction for determining twelve orange flavour compounds in a model beverage emulsion

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled to gas chromatography has been applied for the headspace analysis (HS) of 12 target flavour compounds in a model orange beverage emulsion. The main volatile flavour compounds studied were: acetaldehyde, ethyl acetate, alpha-pinene, ethyl butyrate, beta-pinene, myrcene, limonene, gamma-terpinene, octanal, decanal, linalool and citral (neral plus geranial). After screening the fibre type, the effect of other HS-SPME variables such as adsorption temperature (25-55 degrees C), extraction time (10-40 min), sample concentration (1-100% w/w), sample amount (5-10 g) and salt amount (0-30% w/w) were determined using a two-level fractional factorial design (2(5-2)) that was expanded further to a central composite design. It was found that an extraction process using a carboxen-polydimethylsiloxane fibre coating at 15 masculineC for 50 min with 5 g of diluted emulsion 1% (w/w) and 30% (w/w) of sodium chloride under stirring mode resulted in the highest HS extraction efficiency. For all volatile flavour compounds, the linearity values were accurate in the concentration ranges studied (r(2) > 0.97). Average recoveries that ranged from 90.3 to 124.8% showed a good accuracy for the optimised method. The relative standard deviation for six replicates of all volatile flavour compounds was found to be less than 15%. For all volatile flavour compounds, the limit of detection ranged from 0.20 to 1.69 mg/L.
