芦苇叶水提物的化感活性分析及潜在化感成分的筛选

采用不同溶剂对芦苇﹝Phragmites australis ( Cav.) Trin. ex Steud.﹞叶片水提物进行萃取,并以小麦( Triticum aestivum Linn.)和萝卜( Raphanus sativus Linn.)种子为实验材料对不同萃取物的化感效应进行检测;采用薄层层析和柱层析对抑制作用最强的正丁醇萃取物进行进一步分离,并采用GC-MS法对生物活性较高的组分进行组成成分分析;在此基础上,选择相对含量高并具有代表性的潜在化感成分进行生物活性检测,以期筛选出芦苇叶中的潜在化感成分。结果显示：随质量浓度(20、100和500 mg·L-1)提高,芦苇叶水提物的石油醚、二氯甲烷、乙酸乙酯、正丁醇和水萃取物对小麦和萝卜种子萌发的抑制作用均逐渐增强,其中正丁醇萃取物的抑制作用最强。在正丁醇萃取物的11个组分中,Fr.5、Fr.6、Fr.7、Fr.9和Fr.10组分均能显著抑制萝卜或小麦幼苗的生长,经质量浓度500 mg·L-1各组分处理液处理后萝卜或小麦幼苗的株高、根长及单株鲜质量均显著低于对照(P<0.05)。采用GC-MS法从Fr.5、Fr.6、Fr.7、Fr.9和Fr.10组分中分别鉴定出11、15、15、12和22种成分,分别占各组分总相对含量的83.02%、91.31%、87.36%、97.92%和94.34%,主要成分包括糖类、醇类、有机酸类、酮类、酰胺类和酯类。对14种潜在化感成分生物活性的检测结果显示这些成分对小麦幼苗生长有明显的抑制作用,其中,经质量浓度20 mg·L-1油酸酰胺、棕榈酸甲酯、亚油酸、2-苯乙胺、2-甲基烯丙醇和4-羟基-3-甲氧基苦杏仁酸处理后,小麦幼苗的株高、根长及单株鲜质量显著低于对照。综合分析结果显示：芦苇叶水提物具有较强的化感活性,其潜在的化感成分为油酸酰胺、棕榈酸甲酯、亚油酸、2-苯乙胺、2-甲基烯丙醇和4-羟基-3-甲氧基苦杏仁酸。     

胡椒木叶片精油成分分析及其抗氧化、驱虫、抗菌活性

为解决在城市绿化中滥用化学农药引起的生态问题,研究了胡椒木(Zanthoxylum piperitum)叶片的精油成分及其驱虫、杀虫、杀菌活性。结果表明,采用石油醚萃取胡椒木叶片精油的最佳工艺条件为提取时间4 h、温度50℃、料液比1:5,得率最高为0.5123%。从胡椒木叶片精油中共鉴定出25个化学成分,主要为酯类、烃类和醇类,占总峰面积的99.96%,而具有驱虫、杀虫和抗菌活性的成分占88.50%,包括肉桂酸甲酯(87.83%)、柠檬烯(0.18%)、薄荷醇(0.11%)、香茅醛(0.10%)、α-蒎烯(0.08%)、α-石竹烯(0.08%)、松油醇(0.04%)、石竹烯(0.03%)、羟基大牻牛儿-1(10),5-二烯(0.03%)和β-水芹烯(0.02%)等。20 mg m L~(–1)的精油对DPPH·自由基的清除率达85.38%,接近BHT阳性对照;但还原性低于Vc,表现出较弱活性,这可能与提取工艺有关。因此,胡椒木叶精油含有多种驱虫、杀虫、抗菌等生物活性成分,具有开发为天然植物农药的潜力。

Re-characterization of three conjugated linolenic acid isomers by GC-MS and NMR

Conjugated linolenic acids (CLN) refer to a group of octadecatrienoic acids with three conjugated double bonds. Minor positional and geometrical differences among CLN isomers make their separation and identification difficult. We have used GC-MS and NMR to study three common CLN isomers namely alpha-eleostearic acid, beta-eleostearic acid and punicic acid, finding that some signals of olefinic carbon atoms in NMR spectra were mistakenly assigned in the literature. The present study was therefore undertaken to re-characterize the location of CC double bonds and assign the chemical signals of proton and carbon atoms using (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, (1)H-(1)H two-dimensional correlation spectra ((1)H-(1)H COSY) and (13)C-(1)H two-dimensional correlation spectra ((13)C-(1)H COSY). The geometrical structure of double bonds in these three CLN isomers was identified using homonuclear decoupling technique.     

Cyclization of natural allene oxide in aprotic solvent: formation of the novel oxylipin methyl cis-12-oxo-10-phytoenoate

Allene oxide, (9Z,11E)-12,13-epoxy-9,11-octadecadienoic acid (12,13-EOD), was prepared by incubation of linoleic acid (13S)-hydroperoxide with flaxseed allene oxide synthase (AOS) and purified (as methyl ester) by low temperature HPLC. Identification of pure 12,13-EOD was substantiated by its UV and (1)H NMR spectra and by GC-MS data for its methanol trapping product. The methyl ester of 12,13-EOD (but not the free carboxylic acid) is slowly cyclized in hexane solution, affording a novel cyclopentenone cis-12-oxo-10-phytoenoic acid. Free carboxylic form of 12,13-EOD does not cyclize due to the exceeding formation of macrolactone (9Z)-12-oxo-9-octadecen-11-olide. The spontaneous cyclization of pure natural allene oxide (12,13-EOD) into cis-cyclopentenone have been observed first time.     

Proposed minimum reporting standards for chemical analysis

There is a general consensus that supports the need for standardized reporting of metadata or information describing large-scale metabolomics and other functional genomics data sets. Reporting of standard metadata provides a biological and empirical context for the data, facilitates experimental replication, and enables the re-interrogation and comparison of data by others. Accordingly, the Metabolomics Standards Initiative is building a general consensus concerning the minimum reporting standards for metabolomics experiments of which the Chemical Analysis Working Group (CAWG) is a member of this community effort. This article proposes the minimum reporting standards related to the chemical analysis aspects of metabolomics experiments including: sample preparation, experimental analysis, quality control, metabolite identification, and data pre-processing. These minimum standards currently focus mostly upon mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy due to the popularity of these techniques in metabolomics. However, additional input concerning other techniques is welcomed and can be provided via the CAWG on-line discussion forum at or . Further, community input related to this document can also be provided via this electronic forum.

Metabolic profile and quantification of deoxyribose synthesis pathways in HepG2 cells

Traditional tracer studies of cell proliferation fail to distinguish between label enrichment due to increased DNA repair versus DNA replication. We used the emerging stable (non-radiating) isotope-based dynamic metabolic profiling technique on HepG2 cells to determine synthesis pathways of nucleic acids from glucose and rates of proliferation using CG-MS assay of RNA and DNA enrichment. Comparing the isotopic enrichment curve in DNA with the theoretical curve based on cell growth, we observed that the measured tracer enrichment was significantly higher, indicating that surplus label was acquired during DNA repair. In particular, after the first duplication (3 days), 80.13% of the total enrichment observed corresponds to duplication and 19.87% corresponds to DNA repair as calculated from the [1, 2-¹³C₂]-glucose incorporation curve. Our data indicate contemporary measurements of cell proliferation rates relying on tracer incorporation may be overestimated. ¹³C label was distributed between m1 (m1/Σm = 80) and m2 (m2/Σm = 14) of deoxyribose, indicating that most of the glucose carbon was acquired via direct glucose oxidation in the pentose cycle. The stable isotope technique distinguishes rates of DNA synthesis and repair via the oxidative and non-oxidative pentose cycle, separately, in one test, without inhibition of either process. The contribution of DNA repair in malignant cells to isotope accumulation in deoxyribose remains to be investigated.     

Metabolite analysis for the comparison of irrigated and non-irrigated field grown tomato of varying genotype

Every year the consequences of water deficit on crop yield and quality are profound. The observation that many wild species relatives of cultivated crops display a greater stress tolerance and the fact that the cultivated species generally display only a fraction of the allelic diversity available within the tomato clade suggest that crossing of wild species with elite cultivars could improve the stress physiology of modern crops. To assess this from the basis of chemical composition we applied an established GC-MS based metabolite profiling method to fruits from irrigated and non-irrigated tomato plants either of the cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) or of its hybrid with its wild species relative (Solanum pennellii). Results are discussed in terms of both the metabolic response to drought stress and the potential of utilizing exotic germplasm as a means to improve agronomically important characteristics of crop species.
