ABSTRACT Eleutherococcus senticosus essential oil (ESEO) has the function of clearing heat and detoxifying, delaying aging. The ESEO yield obtained by traditional extraction methods is low because essential oils are encased in plant cell structures and are difficult to extract. In this work, we adopted the method of glucose oxidase promoting cellulase‐assisted hydrodistillation, and utilized the interaction of glucose oxidase and cellulase to promote the full destruction of cellulose in plant cells, resulting in a large amount of internal essential oil flowing out and improving the yield of ESEO. By optimizing the main factors of enzymatic hydrolysis, the optimal extraction conditions for ESEO were determined through Box–Behnken design experiments. The ratio of glucose oxidase to cellulase is 1:20, the concentration of the enzyme is 1.02%, the temperature of enzymatic hydrolysis is 40.0°C, and the pH value of enzymatic hydrolysis is 3.44. The optimal yield was 0.140%. The yield of essential oil extracted from E. senticosus was increased by 49.9% compared to a single cellulase‐assisted extraction method. The extraction process used in this work is milder, more environmentally friendly, and more efficient, which has important reference value for the industrial extraction and utilization of medicinal plants.
The treatment of polluted water is a serious environmental problem in the world. Biomass is easily modified and can be prepared into adsorbent materials, which is expected to solve the problem of heavy metal ion adsorption in sewage. In this paper, esterified tobacco straw based hydrogels (ETS-PAA) were synthesized from waste tobacco straw biomass. The structure and thermal stability of these hydrogels were characterized by FTIR, SEM, EDS, XPS and TG. The adsorption of metal ions by the hydrogel was measured by ICP-MS. The effects of initial ion concentration, adsorption time, pH, and temperature on the heavy metal adsorption were investigated. The results showed that ETS-PAA possessed more pores, which led to a better adsorption capacity. The maximum adsorption amounts of Pb 2+ , Cu 2+ and Cd 2+ were 2.41 mmol·g −1 , 1.93 mmol·g −1 and 1.77 mmol·g −1 , respectively. Finally, the adsorption mechanism and kinetics were analyzed. The adsorption was mainly accomplished by ion exchange of -COOK on the monomer chain with heavy metal ions, coordination of -OH and -CONH with heavy metal ions and interaction of ester bond, -COOH with heavy metal ions. The adsorption process was in accordance with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Freundlich model. The adsorption process belonged to multilayer chemisorption. This work shows that ETS-PAA was a promising material for the removal of heavy metal pollutants from aqueous solution.
In this work, a porous tobacco straw-based polyacrylic acid hydrogel STS-PAA with high adsorption performance was prepared by polymerizing pretreated waste tobacco straw (TS) with acrylic acid/potassium acrylate by UV radiation initiation. The adsorption performance of metal ions was investigated. The effects of different temperatures (25°C, 35°C, and 45°C), adsorption times (1–420 min), pH values (2.0–6.0) and initial concentrations (0.25–4.0 mmol L−1) of metal ions on the adsorption amount of heavy metal ions were investigated. The results showed that the hydrogel had a high removal rate of Pb2+, Cd2+ and Hg2+ in aqueous solution. The adsorption of Pb2+ was particularly effective. When C0 = 4.0 mmol L−1, pH = 6, the equilibrium adsorption amount of Pb2+, Cd2+ and Hg2+ reached 1.49 mmol g−1, 1.02 mmol L−1 and 0.94 mmol g−1, respectively. The chemical structure and morphology of the hydrogels were characterized by FT-IR, EDS, SEM and XPS. The Langmuir model fits well with the adsorption system. The kinetic data suggest the adsorption of Pb2+, Cd2+ and Hg2+ follow the pseudo-first-order model. This indicates that STS-PAA adsorption of three heavy metal ions is monolayer physical adsorption. Thermodynamic analysis shows that the adsorption of Pb2+, Cd2+ and Hg2+ by STS-PAA is an endothermic (ΔH>0) entropy increase (ΔS>0) non-spontaneous reaction.
Mitochondria-targetable fluorescent chemosensors, Rhodamine-B and rhodamine 6G bearing syringaldehyde based receptors were designed and synthesized for efficient chemosensing of Zinc(II) ions. The probes showed the very selective naked eye color change to pink from colorless upon addition of Zinc(II) ions, further these probes showing turn-on fluorescence enhancement with Zn(II) ions by opening of rhodamine spirolactam. The probes are very sensitive towards Zn(II) ions among other ions. These probes RBS and R6S will be applicable to detect zinc ions upto the low level concentration 0.18 and 0.19 nano molar respectively. The affinity of these sensors RBS and R6S for Zinc (II) ions was found to be in the range of 1.12 x 10(4) M-1 and 7.28 x 10(4) M-1 respectively. 1H-nmr titrations of the probes with Zn(II) ions clearly indicating the spiroring opening of the spirolactam. DFT calculations supporting that the perceived photophysical changes of the probes on appendage of the zinc ions. Probes RBS and R6S are useable for selective staining mitochondria. Both of the probes are applicable to reveal labile Zn(II) in live Hela and MCF-7 cells via fluorescence imaging. RBS and R6S are also finding application on quantification of Zinc(II) ions inside mitochondria via fluorescence imaging.
