Clark, Caitlin published the artcileEffects of time and temperature during melanging on the volatile profile of dark chocolate, Formula: C13H16O, the main research area is dark chocolate temperature melanging volatile profile.

Chocolate made from small-batch production is known for distinct sensory properties that differentiate its products from large-scale production Specifically, small-batch processing includes a melanging step, a chocolate refining (a process involving time and temperature to refine texture and flavor) process that occurs in a stone wet-grinder. Chocolatiers understand that melanging is essential to flavor and overall quality, however the influence of melanging on the aroma chem. of the finished chocolate is anecdotal and largely uncharacterized. Here, we evaluated the effects of time and temperature of melanging on the volatile chem. of the finished chocolate. Specifically, chocolate aroma was profiled using HS/SPME-GC-MS for three different time and temperature combinations. A total of 88 compounds were annotated by mass spectrometry and included a diverse set of chem. classes such as pyrazines, aldehydes, terpenes, alcs., esters, and ketones. Anal. of variance (ANOVA), principal component anal. (PCA), and partial least squares anal. (PLS) revealed that the overall aroma profile was influenced by the type of melanging, and time had a greater effect than temperature Example compounds affected by time include 2-methylpropanal, di-Me sulfide, and benzaldehyde. Particle size was also measured for each sample. Majority particle size was found to be below 25 μ generally at all time points beyond 8 h. Anal. showed significant p-values for the temperature variable for several compounds, but significant p-values for the time variable were apparent for a greater number of compounds For compounds which showed dependency on both time and temperature, the p-value for the time variable was much smaller in most cases. Both PCA and OPLS analyses suggested the same trends. These data support that time is a critical factor in determining the aroma chem. of chocolate and affects a diverse set of known flavor active compounds

Scoville, David K. published the artcilePolybrominated Diphenyl Ethers and Gut Microbiome Modulate Metabolic Syndrome-Related Aqueous Metabolites in Mice, Application In Synthesis of 104-01-8, the main research area is gut microbiome polybrominated diphenyl ether metabolic syndrome aqueous metabolite.

Polybrominated di-Ph ethers (PBDEs) are persistent environmental toxicants associated with increased risk for metabolic syndrome. Intermediary metabolism is influenced by the intestinal microbiome. To test the hypothesis that PBDEs reduce host-beneficial intermediary metabolites in an intestinal microbiome-dependent manner, nine-week old male conventional (CV) and germ-free (GF) C57BL/6 mice orally gavaged once daily with vehicle, BDE-47, or BDE-99 (100μmol/kg) for four-days. Intestinal microbiome (16S rDNA sequencing), liver transcriptome (RNA-Seq), and intermediary metabolites in serum, liver, as well as small and large intestinal contents (SIC and LIC; LC-MS) were examined Changes in intermediary metabolite abundances in serum, liver, and SIC, were observed under basal conditions (CV vs. GF mice) and by PBDE exposure. PBDEs altered the largest number of metabolites in the LIC; most were regulated by PBDEs in GF conditions. Importantly, intestinal microbiome was necessary for PBDE-mediated decreases in branched chain and aromatic amino acid metabolites including 3-indolepropionic acid, a tryptophan metabolite recently shown to be protective against inflammation and diabetes. Gene-metabolite networks revealed a pos. association between the hepatic glycan synthesis gene alpha-1,6-mannosyltransferase (Alg12) mRNA and mannose which are important for protein glycosylation. Glycome changes have been observed in patients with metabolic syndrome. In LIC of CV mice, 23 bacterial taxa were regulated by PBDEs. Correlations of certain taxa with distinct serum metabolites further highlight a modulatory role of the microbiome in mediating PBDE effects. In summary, PBDEs impact intermediary metabolism in an intestinal microbiome-dependent manner, suggesting that dysbiosis may contribute to PBDE-mediated toxicities including metabolic syndrome.

Hennebel, Tom published the artcileRemoval of diatrizoate with catalytically active membranes incorporating microbially produced palladium nanoparticles, Application In Synthesis of 117-96-4, the main research area is diatrizoate biogenic palladium nanoparticle PVDF polysulfone dehalogenation wastewater treatment.

There is an increasing concern about the fate of iodinated contrast media (ICM) in the environment. Limited removal efficiencies of currently applied techniques such as advanced oxidation processes require more performant strategies. The aim of this study was to establish an innovative degradation process for diatrizoate, a highly recalcitrant ICM, by using biogenic Pd nanoparticles as free suspension or immobilized in polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and polysulfone (PSf) membranes. As measured by HPLC-UV, the removal of 20 mg L-1 diatrizoate by a 10 mg L-1 Pd suspension was completed after 4 h at a pH of 10. LC-MS anal. provided evidence for the sequential hydrodeiodination of diatrizoate. Pd did not lose its activity after incorporation in the PVDF and PSf matrix and the highest activity (k cat = 30.0 ± 0.4 h-1 L g-1 Pd) was obtained with a casting solution of 10% PSf and 500 mg L-1 Pd. Subsequently, water containing 20 mg L-1 diatrizoate was treated in a membrane contactor, in which the water was supplied at one side of the membrane while hydrogen was provided at the other side. In a fed batch configuration, a removal efficiency of 77% after a time period of 48 h was obtained. This work showed that membrane contactors with encapsulated biogenic nanoparticles can be instrumental for treatment of water contaminated with diatrizoate.

Manning-Geist, Beryl L. published the artcilePhase II study of enzalutamide in androgen receptor positive, recurrent, high- and low-grade serous ovarian cancer, Application In Synthesis of 151-10-0, the main research area is enzalutamide anticancer agent androgen receptor ovarian cancer; Androgen receptor expression; Enzalutamide; Ovarian cancer; Recurrent ovarian cancer; Serous ovarian cancer.

We sought to determine the safety and efficacy of the oral androgen receptor antagonist enzalutamide in patients with previously treated, recurrent, AR-pos. (AR+) ovarian cancer. This was a single-institution phase II study of patients with AR+ ovarian cancer with measurable disease with 1-3 prior lines of chemotherapy; patients were screened for enrollment from 11/2013-7/2018. Following consent, archival tissue was evaluated for AR+. Enrolled patients received daily enzalutamide 160 mg until progression of disease or treatment discontinuation. Adverse events were graded by CTCAE v4.0. Co-primary endpoints were 6-mo progression-free survival (PFS6) and overall response rate (ORR) by RECIST 1.1 criteria. During the study period, 160 patients were screened and 59 (45 high-grade serous [HGS] and 14 low-grade serous [LGS]) consented to treatment on study. There was 1 confirmed and 1 unconfirmed partial response. The ORR was 1.7% (90% CI: 0.2-100%). The overall PFS6 rate (as binary) was 22% (90% CI: 15.1-100%). The 6-mo PFS rate (as time to event) was 19.8% for HGS patients (90% CI: 12.7-100%) and 38.5% (90% CI: 21.7%-100%) for LGS patients. Grade 3 toxicities occurred in 6 patients (one toxicity (Grade 3 rash) was considered a dose-limiting toxicity). One patient died of cardiac arrest after 42 days on treatment of a cardiac arrest not attributed to study drug. The study met its primary endpoint, with a PFS6 rate of 22% (n = 13); however, the overall response rate was low. Enzalutamide was well tolerated and may be a potential treatment option in select patients.

Singh, Randolph R. published the artcileBinding of iodinated contrast media (ICM) and their transformation products with hormone receptors: Are ICM the new EDCs?, Quality Control of 117-96-4, the main research area is iodinated contrast media biotransformation hormone receptor endocrine disruptor; Bioaccumulation; Endocrine disrupting compounds; In silico approach; Iodinated contrast media; Nuclear receptor.

Iodinated contrast media (ICM) have been detected at high concentrations (as high as about 3 μg/L) in surface water systems, and recently in fish brains and gonad. The mismatch between the polarity of ICM and the high lipid content of brain raises questions on whether their bioaccumulation is receptor-mediated. Furthermore, the structural similarity of ICM to the natural thyroid hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine suggest potential binding of ICM to nuclear receptors in the endocrine system. Therefore, an in silico approach based on Surflex-Dock module of SYBYL was used to investigate the mol. docking of selected ICM (diatrizoic acid, iohexol, iopamidol, and iopromide). These ICM showed interaction with nuclear receptors that play key roles in endocrine regulation, including the androgen and estrogen receptors. Furthermore, the results indicate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma as one of the viable targets in the endocrine disrupting potential of ICM with higher Cscores for the ICM and iopromide transformation products than the reference ligand for the receptor. The data obtained from in silico calculations showed stronger binding of iohexol to the transthyretin-binding pocket compared to the natural hormones, thyroxine and triiodothyronine, suggesting the potential of ICM to act as endocrine disrupting chems. in the environment.

Salam, Rayhanus published the artcileIncreasing membrane permeability of carboxylic acid-containing drugs using synthetic transmembrane anion transporters, Product Details of C11H9I3N2O4, the main research area is carboxylic acid drug membrane permeability transmembrane anion transporter.

In this manuscript, we show that small-mol.-based anion transporters can significantly increase the permeability of carboxylic acid containing drugs across lipid bilayers of model vesicles. Due to the drug-like characteristics of the transporters, this finding could not only have implications for drug delivery, but also hints towards potential drug-drug and drug-food interactions.

Mao, Shihong published the artcileIdentification of key aromatic compounds in Congou black tea by partial least-square regression with variable importance of projection scores and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry/gas chromatography-olfactometry, Application of 5-Methyl-2-phenylhex-2-enal, the main research area is Camellia aromatic compound PLSR gas chromatog olfactometry; Congou black tea; GC-MS; GC-olfactometry; PLSR-VIP method; aroma-active compounds.

BACKGROUND : Gas chromatog.-olfactometry (GC-O) is the most frequently used method to estimate the sensory contribution of single odorant, but disregards the interactions between volatiles. In order to select the key volatiles responsible for the aroma attributes of Congou black tea (Camellia sinensis), instrumental, sensory and multivariate statistical approaches were applied. RESULTS : Using sensory anal., nine panellists developed eight descriptors: floral, sweet, fruity, green, roasted, oil, spicy, and off-odor. Linalool, (E)-furan linalool oxide, (Z)-pyran linalool oxide, Me salicylate, β-myrcene, and phenylethyl alc., which were identified from the most representative samples by the GC-O procedure, were the essential aroma-active compounds in the formation of basic Congou black tea aroma. In addition, 136 volatiles were identified by gas chromatog.-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), among which 55 compounds were determined as the key factors for six sensory attributes by partial least-square regression (PLSR) with variable importance of projection scores. CONCLUSION : Our results demonstrated that headspace solid-phase microextraction/GC-MS/GC-O was a fast approach for isolation and quantification aroma-active compounds The PLSR method was also considered to be a useful tool in selecting important variables for sensory attributes. These two strategies, which allowed us to comprehensively evaluate the sensorial contribution of a single volatile from different perspectives, can be applied to related products for comprehensive quality control. © 2018 Society of Chem.

Song, Bichao published the artcilePd-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Olefination: Stereoselective Synthesis of Polysubstituted Butadienes and Macrocyclic P-glycoprotein Inhibitors, Related Products of isoquinoline, the main research area is vinylethylene carbonate diazo ester palladium decarboxylative olefination catalyst; vinyloxazolidinone diazo ester palladium decarboxylative olefination catalyst; vinylbenzoxazinone diazo ester palladium decarboxylative olefination catalyst; butadiene polysubstituted stereoselective preparation.

The efficient and stereoselective synthesis of polysubstituted butadienes, especially the multifunctional butadienes, represents a great challenge in organic synthesis. Herein, we wish to report a distinctive Pd(0) carbene-initiated decarboxylative olefination approach that enables the direct coupling of diazo esters with vinylethylene carbonates (VECs), vinyl oxazolidinones, or vinyl benzoxazinones to afford alc.-, amine-, or aniline-containing 1,3-dienes in moderate to high yields and with excellent stereoselectivity. This protocol features operational simplicity, mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and gram-scalability. Notably, a structurally unique allylic Pd(II) intermediate was isolated and characterized. DFT calculation and control experiments demonstrated that a rare Pd(0) carbene intermediate could be involved in this reaction. Moreover, the polysubstituted butadienes as novel building blocks were unprecedentedly assembled into macrocycles, which efficiently inhibited the P-glycoprotein and dramatically reversed multidrug resistance in cancer cells by 190-fold.

Ishikawa, Youichi published the artcileMolecular orbital approach to odor molecules: normal fatty acids and cyclamenaldehydes, Formula: C11H12O3, the main research area is fatty acid odor mspr MO; cyclamenaldehyde odor mspr MO.

Eight normal fatty acids and 24 cyclamenaldehydes were analyzed based on the MO theory using Computer-Aided Chem. Programs (CAChe Programs) with PM3 parameters. We found reactive sites with high values of electrophilic frontier densities (EFDs) at appointed positions in both mol. series. A change in the values of EFDs in normal fatty acids would account for the selectivity in the response of a single olfactory receptor cell to the fatty acids. Changes in the values of EFDs at appointed positions of cyclamenaldehydes also correlated with their odor characteristics and intensities. This fact indicates that cyclamenaldehydes have common reactive sites that play a critical role in interactions with a receptor. Changes in their reactivities alter the odor characteristics and intensities of the mols. judged by perfumers, indicating that human discrimination of cyclamenaldehyde odor is determined at the stage of interaction between cyclamenaldehydes and an odor receptor.

He, Zhen published the artcileThe Interrupted Pummerer Reaction in a Sulfoxide-Catalyzed Oxidative Coupling of 2-Naphthols, Recommanded Product: 4-Methoxyphenylacetic acid, the main research area is interrupted Pummerer reaction sulfoxide catalyzed oxidative coupling naphthol; nigerone isonigerone synthesis; BINOLs; Pummerer reaction; metal-free catalysis; oxidative coupling; sulfoxide.

A benzothiophene S-oxide catalyst, generated in situ by sulfur oxidation with H2O2, mediates the oxidative coupling of 2-naphthols. Key to the catalytic process is the capture and inversion of reactivity of a 2-naphthol partner, using an interrupted Pummerer reaction of an unusual benzothiophene S-oxide, followed by subsequent coupling with a second partner. The new catalytic manifold has been showcased in the synthesis of the bioactive natural products, (±)-nigerone (I) and (±)-isonigerone (II). Although Pummerer reactions are used widely, their application in catalysis is rare, and our approach represents a new catalytic manifold for metal-free C-C bond formation.
