Deng, Hao;Yin, Qingchun;Lin, Yuqin;Feng, Jiancheng;Chen, Zhe;Zhang, Ronghu research published 《 Analysis on quality differences associated with metabolomics of rambutan during different temperature storage》, the research content is summarized as follows. This study aimed to understand how temperatures differentially impact the crucial quality indexes and metabolites in rambutan during storage. Rambutan browned quickly at room temperature from 0 d (control). After ten days at 5°C, browning index and lightness were 4.2% and 147.5%, compared with rambutan stored at 1°C, which was the best quality achieved. An UPLC-MS/MS was performed to uncover the metabolism underlying those quality differences, followed by the anal. of KEGG pathways. Results showed that 276 differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) screened were enriched in 18 KEGG pathways. The pathways related to carbohydrates, aliphatic metabolites, and organic acids were highly active in rambutan stored at room temperature, whereas the pathways related to amino acids biosynthesis and nucleotides were highly active in rambutan stored at 1°C, 5°C. These findings indicated that increased scopoline was associated with serious browning at room temperature L-leucine and L-isoleucine both increased in response to low temperature and reduced browning. Glutathione and ascorbate decreased to 4.89% and 4.36%, compared with 0 d (CK) in rambutan with severe browning stored at 1°C for ten days. However, no significant changes in those two metabolites were observed in rambutan stored at optimal 5°C for ten days. Thus glutathione and ascorbate could be used as potential indicators of browning degree. Our study provided a metabolic insight into the role of temperature on rambutan quality and browning.
Quality Control of 771-51-7, 3-Indoleacetonitrile is a plant growth activator, which promotes callus growth and shoot formation in tobacco callus.
3-Indoleacetonitrile (Indolylacetonitrile) is a light-induced auxin-inhibitory substance that is isolated from light-grown cabbage (Brassica olearea L.) shoots. It inhibits the biofilm formation of both E. coli O157:H7 and P. aeruginosa without affecting its growth.
3-Indoleacetonitrile, also known as 3-(cyanomethyl)indole or IAN, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 3-alkylindoles. 3-alkylindoles are compounds containing an indole moiety that carries an alkyl chain at the 3-position. 3-Indoleacetonitrile exists as a solid and is considered to be practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral. Within the cell, 3-indoleacetonitrile is primarily located in the mitochondria. 3-Indoleacetonitrile participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 3-indoleacetonitrile can be biosynthesized from acetonitrile. 3-Indoleacetonitrile is also a parent compound for other transformation products, including but not limited to, cys(ian)-gly, gammaglucys(ian), and L-cys(ian). Outside of the human body, 3-indoleacetonitrile can be found in a number of food items such as cloudberry, japanese persimmon, horned melon, and evergreen huckleberry. This makes 3-indoleacetonitrile a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Indole-3-acetonitrile is a nitrile that is acetonitrile where one of the methyl hydrogens is substituted by a 1H-indol-3-yl group. It has a role as an auxin, a plant hormone, a plant metabolite and a human xenobiotic metabolite. It is a nitrile and a member of indoles. It derives from an acetonitrile., 771-51-7.
