Urinary organic acid screening by solid-phase microextraction of the methyl esters

We developed a new sample preparation method for profiling organic acids in urine by GC or GC–MS. The method includes derivatisation of the organic acids directly in the aqueous urine using trimethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate as a methylating agent, extraction of the organic acid methyl esters from the urine by solid-phase microextraction, using a polyacrylate fiber with a thickness of 85 μm and transfer of the methyl esters into the GC or the GC–MS instrument. Desorption of the analytes takes place in the heated injection port. The proposed sample preparation is very simple. There is no need for any evaporation step and for the use of an organic solvent. The risk of contamination and the loss of analytes are minimized. The total sample preparation time prior to GC or GC–MS analysis is about 40 min, and therefore more rapid than other sample preparation procedures. The urinary organic acids are well separated by GC and 29 substances are identified by GC–MS.     

Characterization and catalytic property of surfactant-laccase complex in organic media

The oxidation of o-phenylenediamine catalyzed in anhydrous organic solvents by surfactant-laccase complex was investigated. The complex was prepared by utilizing a novel preparation technique in water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions. The surfactant-laccase complex effectively catalyzed the oxidation reaction in various dry organic solvents, while laccase, lyophilized from an aqueous buffer solution in which its activity was optimized, exhibited no catalytic activity in nonaqueous media. To optimize the preparation and reaction conditions for the surfactant-enzyme complexes, we examined the effects of pH in the water pool of W/O emulsions, the concentration of enzyme and surfactant at the preparation stage, and the nature of organic solvents at the reaction stage on the laccase activity in organic media. Surfactant-laccase complex showed a strong pH-dependent catalytic activity in organic media. Its optimum activity was obtained when the complex was prepared at a pH of about 3. Interestingly, native laccase in an aqueous buffer solution exhibited an optimum activity at the same pH of 3. The optimum preparation conditions of surfactant-laccase complex were [laccase] = 0.8 mg/mL and [surfactant] = 10 mM, and the complex showed the highest catalytic activity in toluene among nine anhydrous organic solvents. The effect of a cosolubilized mediator (1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HBT)) on the reaction was also investigated. The addition of HBT at the preparation stage of the enzyme complex did not accelerate the catalytic reaction because HBT was converted to an inactive benzotriazole (BT) by laccase. However, the addition of HBT at the reaction stage enhanced the catalytic performance by a factor of five compared to that without HBT.     

Novel preparation method for surfactant-lipase complexes utilizing water in oil emulsions

A novel preparation method for surfactant-lipase complexes has been developed utilizing water in oil emulsions. In order to optimize the preparation conditions, we have investigated the effects of several operational parameters on the enzymatic activity of the surfactant-lipase complexes in organic media. When a nonionic surfactant was employed under optimal preparation conditions [alkaline pH 8-10, organic/aqueous = 90/10 (v/v), concentration of surfactant, 10 mM[, the surfactant-lipase complex efficiently catalyzed the esterification of benzyl alcohol with lauric acid in organic media. The esterification rate of the surfactant-lipase complex was increased over 16-fold relative to the native powder lipase. Furthermore, the lipase complex showed high storage stability.

Atomistic simulation of the sol formation during synthesis of organic/inorganic hybrid materials

Atomistic modelling was employed to investigate interactions between the precursors used in preparation of organic/inorganic polymer hybrids. Three molecular systems composed of different kinds of organofunctionalised silanes and an organic polymer in aqueous solution have been simulated, representing various model stages of the hydrolysis reaction during the sol/gel processing. The equilibrium configurations obtained by Molecular Dynamics were analysed in order to elucidate the extent of the hydrogen bonding network and clustering of components within the systems. Diffusion coefficients were obtained to estimate the mobility of the components and the stability of the molecular associations. It has been concluded that the molecular mechanism of the initial stages of the sol/gel process used for preparation of the organic/inorganic hybrids involves clustering of the organofunctionalysed inorganic components as a first step and then progressive hydrolysis as consequent steps. The organic polymer component plays a role of the cluster "wrap" and thus prevents the particles from unlimited growth and precipitation from the solution.     

Production of starch with antioxidative activity by baking starch with organic acids

A starch ingredient with antioxidative activity, as measured by the DPPH method, was produced by baking corn starch with an organic acid; it has been named ANOX sugar (antioxidative sugar). The baking temperature and time were fixed at 170 °C and 60 min, and the organic acid used was selected from preliminary trials of various kinds of acid. The phytic acid ANOX sugar preparation showed the highest antioxidative activity, but the color of the preparation was almost black; we therefore selected L-tartaric acid which had the second highest antioxidative activity. The antioxidative activity of the L-tartaric acid ANOX sugar preparation was stable against temperature, light, and enzyme treatments (α-amylase and glucoamylase). However, the activity was not stable against variations in water content and pH value. The antioxidative activity of ANOX sugar was stabilized by treating with boiled water or nitrogen gas, or by pH adjustment.

Surfactant-lactoperoxidase complex catalytically active in organic media

A surfactant-lactoperoxidase (LPO) complex catalytically active in organic solvents was developed by the emulsion coating method. The oxidation of 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (2,6-DMP) was conducted by the surfactant-LPO complex in organic media. The LPO complex efficiently catalyzed the oxidation of 2,6-DMP in various organic solvents, although lyophilized LPO did not display the catalytic activity at all. To optimize the preparation and reaction conditions for the surfactant-LPO complex, we examined the effects of pH value in the water pools of W/O emulsions, kinds of oxidants, and the nature of organic solvents on the oxidation reaction. Its optimum activity was obtained when the pH value of the aqueous enzyme solution was adjusted to ca. 8 at the preparation stage. The LPO complex exhibited the highest catalytic activity in chloroform when H(2)O(2) was employed as the oxidant. Furthermore, the storage stability of the surfactant-LPO complex was far better than that of the surfactant-horseradish peroxidase complex. This high storage stability of the LPO complex will be a benefit for industrial usage of peroxidases.     

Lipases and (R)-oxynitrilases: useful tools in organic synthesis

The use of enzymes in organic solvents is currently of special relevance for the preparation of products of high added value. Lipases are the enzymes that have shown the greatest utility through enzymatic transesterification reactions. Over the last few years, we have shown the value of the enzymatic aminolysis and ammonolysis reactions for the preparation of amides and for the resolution of esters and amines. We have shown that the enzymatic alkoxycarbonylation is also of great utility in chemoselective reactions of natural products. Lyases, enzymes much less exploited in organic synthesis, are proving increasingly interesting, especially the use of (R)-oxynitrilases for the synthesis of optically active cyanohydrins.

Extraordinary enantiospecificity of lipase catalysis in organic media induced by purification and catalyst engineering

A purified lipase preparation from Candida rugosa was compared to its crude counterpart in anhydrous and slightly hydrated hydrophobic organic solvents. The purified lipase preparation was less active than the crude enzyme in dry n-heptane, whereas the presence of small concentrations of added water dramatically activated the purified enzyme but not the crude enzyme. Thus, in the presence of as little as 0.25 muL/mL of added water in n-heptane, the purified enzyme is over 230-fold more active and 6-fold more enantioselective than the dry enzyme suspension in the esterification of racemic 2-(4-chlorophenoxy)propionic acid with n-butanol. The reactivity and selectivity of this biocatalyst, however, was affected by coalescence of the enzyme preparation suspended in the wet organic solvent. Engineering the biocatalyst environment by dissolving the purified lipase in aqueous buffer and then adding this solution to n-heptane resulted in a precipitated enzyme preparation with smaller particle sizes that did not coalesce severely. In the presence of 5 muL/mL of water added with the enzyme, this pretreatment resulted in an activation over the dry, purified enzyme preparation of over 1800-fold and nearly enantiospecific catalysis (E > 100). Hence, by simply modifying the way enzymes are hydrated, dramatic activation of catalytic competency can be achieved. (c) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Proteins and saponins in the lipid preparation obtained by extraction of soybean flour

A complex lipid preparation was obtained by extraction of soybean flour with organic solvents. This preparation was shown to include not only phospholipids (major components), but also up to 30% saponins. These compounds were identified by TLC, HPLC, and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Minor components of the lipid extract were represented by polypeptides associated with phospholipids via electrostatic or hydrophobic forces.     

Catalytic and structural properties of surfactant-horseradish peroxidase complex in organic media

A surfactant-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) complex that is catalytically active in organic media has been successfully prepared by a method utilizing water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions. To optimize conditions for preparation of the HRP complex, the effects of some key parameters in the aqueous phase of W/O emulsions were investigated. The surfactant-HRP complex prepared with a nonionic surfactant exhibited a high catalytic activity compared to those with a cationic or anionic surfactant in anhydrous benzene. At the preparation step, the pH of the aqueous solution had a prominent effect on the enzymatic activity of the HRP complex in organic media. Several kinds of salts present in the HRP complex could be employed to enhance the catalytic performance in organic media. However, anionic ions present in the preparation process appeared to lower the catalytic activity owing to the complexation with heme iron. UV-visible absorption spectra of the HRP complex in benzene, which were prepared from a KCN solution (pH 7.0) or an alkaline solution (pH 12), were comparable with those of native HRP in aqueous solution under the same conditions. Resonance Raman spectroscopic studies also revealed that no significant change in the coordination state of the heme iron occurred even after coating the enzyme with surfactant molecules, lyophilization, and solubilization in nonaqueous media.     

Effect of Peg Homopolymer and Grafted Amphiphilic Peg-Palmityl on the Thermotropic Phase Behavior of 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-Sn-Glycero-3-Phosphocholine Bilayer

Abstract

Phospholipids covalently attached to polyethylene glycol (PEG-PE) are routinely used for the preparation of long-circulating liposomes. The common preparation procedure for long-circulating liposomes involves use of organic solvent. Although there is a plethora of studies describing the interaction of PEG-PE with bilayers, little is known about the effects of PEG homopolymers and single chain amphiphilic PEG on liposome structure. In the present investigation the interaction of PEG homopolymer and amphiphilic PEG-palmityl conjugate with large multilamellar liposomes composed of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-phosphocholine was investigated utilizing differential scanning calorimetry. Vesicle and aggregate sizes were determined by dynamic light scattering. DSC thermograms revealed interaction of PEG homopolymer with DPPC when the two are premixed in organic solvent. The data suggest that PEG interacts with the phospholipid acyl chains deep in the bilayer. Several questions are raised regarding the suitability of the current procedure for preparation of long-circulating liposomes which utilizes organic solvent. Incorporation of only 2 mol% 5 kDa PEG-palmityl conjugate completely solubilized DPPC liposomes. Packing geometry of the lipid anchor, irrespective of the polymer molecular weight, is suggested to be the primary factor for successful grafting of hydrophilic polymers on liposomes. Pure PEG-palmityl formed self-assembled organized structures of potential use in the delivery of poorly soluble drugs.

Lipases: Useful biocatalysts for the preparation of pharmaceuticals

Biocatalysis offers a clean and ecological way to perform chemical processes, in mild reaction conditions and with high degree of selectivity. The use of enzymes, specially lipases, in organic solvents proves an excellent methodology for the preparation of single-isomer chiral drugs. This review covers some general aspects and representative examples of the use of lipases for the enantioselective or regioselective preparation of alcohol and amine intermediates in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals.     

Development and Application of a Liquid Preparation with Oil-Oxidizing Bacteria

An association of four bacterial strains with high oil-oxidizing and bioemulsifying activities, psychrophilicity, resistance to chemical pollutants, and lack of pathogenicity was selected from a collection of natural oil-oxidizing microorganisms. A new liquid preparation containing stabilizers and preservatives that maintain cell viability and oil-oxidizing activity during long-term storage was developed. A field experiment in oil-polluted sod-podzol and clay sand soils demonstrated that this preparation accelerated the biodegradation of oil and its individual fractions, especially in the presence of mineral and organic fertilizers. Treatment of oil-polluted soil with this preparation and additives decreased the oil-induced suppression of certain groups of soil microflora.
