The study demonstrates an application of the front-face fluorescence spectroscopy combined with multivariate regression methods to the analysis of fluorescent beer components. Partial least-squares regressions (PLS1, PLS2, and N-way PLS) were utilized to develop calibration models between synchronous fluorescence spectra and excitation-emission matrices of beers, on one hand, and analytical concentrations of riboflavin and aromatic amino acids, on the other hand. The best results were obtained in the analysis of excitation-emission matrices using the N-way PLS2 method. The respective correlation coefficients, and the values of the root mean-square error of cross-validation (RMSECV), expressed as percentages of the respective mean analytic concentrations, were: 0.963 and 14% for riboflavin, 0.974 and 4% for tryptophan, 0.980 and 4% for tyrosine, and 0.982 and 19% for phenylalanine.

Photo-activation of mitochondrial ATP synthesis

Igor Khmelinskii, Vladimir Makarov

Summary: ATP production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells is accelerated by both direct and indirect mitochondrial photo-activation (MPA). Direct MPA directly activates cytochrome c, while indirect MPA uses electronically excited cytochrome c generated by energy transfer from a Co/BN film to activate ATP synthesis. The findings support the hypothesis of indirect MPA in ATP production in the vertebrate retina.

Photophysical properties of alloxazine derivatives with extended aromaticity - Potential redox-sensitive fluorescent probe

Anna Golczak, Malgorzata Insinska-Rak, Amirali Davoudpour, Daban Hama Saeed, Petra Menova, Viktor Mojr, Radek Cibulka, Igor Khmelinskii, Lucyna Mrowczynska, Marek Sikorski

Summary: The spectral and photophysical properties of two four-ring alloxazine derivatives, 1a and 1b, were investigated. The research found that 1a did not undergo excited-state proton transfer reactions in the presence of acetic acid as a catalyst. The quenching effect of acetic acid on the fluorescence of 1a was also studied. Furthermore, fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) using 1a and 1b as fluorescence probes was applied to in vitro human red blood cells (RBCs) to evaluate their effects on the redox properties of RBCs.

Differentiation of commercial apple juices based on multivariate analysis of their polyphenolic profiles

Katarzyna Wlodarska, Anna Gliszczynska-Swiglo, Ewa Sikorska

Summary: The concentrations of phenolic acids and flavonoids were measured in different types of commercial apple juices using high-performance liquid chromatography. Chlorogenic acid was the dominant polyphenolic compound, followed by flavan-3-ols. Pattern recognition techniques were used to classify the juices based on their polyphenolic profiles, with satisfactory discrimination between juices made from concentrate and not from concentrate. HPLC combined with pattern recognition methods is a promising tool for grouping commercially available apple juices based on their polyphenolic profile.

Tuning the Photophysical Properties of Flavins by Attaching an Aryl Moiety via Direct C-C Bond Coupling

Radek Cibulka, Marek Sikorski, Tomas Tobrman, Marek Cubinak, Naisargi Varma, Petr Oeser, Adam Pokluda, Tetiana Pavlovska

Summary: Palladium-catalyzed Suzuki reactions of brominated flavin derivatives are an effective method for synthesizing a broad range of 7/8-arylflavins. Introducing aryl/heteroaryl groups through direct C-C bond formation can tune the photophysical properties of flavin derivatives, leading to bathochromic shifts in absorption spectra and prolonged fluorescence lifetimes. Additionally, arylation of flavin derivatives reduces their ability to generate singlet oxygen.

IR exciton activation mechanism of ethanol oxidation by human alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) 1A enzyme

Igor Khmelinskii, Vladimir I. Makarov

Summary: Low-energy exciton transfer was observed in Muller cell intermediate filaments (IFs) from porcine retina. The transfer of these excitons to human alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH1A) enzyme accelerated the rate of ethanol oxidation. This suggests that IFs may transmit energy to enzyme molecules in vivo, providing a control mechanism for enzymatic reactions. The indirect activation of the ADH1A molecule in the IF...ADH1A...NAD...EtOH complex occurred through energy transfer from the 4 μm IR exciton.

Miniaturized ascorbic acid assay platform based on point discharge atomic emission spectrometry coupling with gold filament enrichment

Yanping Wang, Yuemei Chen, Kejun Li, Jinrong Zhou, Xin Yuan, Mei Zhang, Ke Huang

Summary: In this work, a portable analytical system based on point discharge chemical vapor generation atomic emission spectrometry (PD-CVG-AES) coupling with gold filament enrichment was designed. The highly sensitive analysis of Hg2+ indirectly realized the detection of ascorbic acid (AA). The measurement is based on the fact that Ag+ can decrease the concentration of Hg2+ by forming Ag-Hg amalgam in the presence of the reductant SnCl2, while AA can pre-reduce Ag+ to Ag0, leading to the generation of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The developed novel analytical strategy broadens the application of microplasma-based AES and offers a higher level of sensitivity compared to current AA detection techniques.

This DNA complex was able to sensitize CdTe quantum dots and generate response signals for E2 detection. The developed biosensor demonstrated high sensitivity and accuracy with two linear ranges and low detection limits.
