Thus, as beer volatile components represent the major contributors for beer overall and peculiar aroma properties, this work intends to perform an in-depth profiling of lager beer volatile metabolites and to generate new data that may contribute for molecules’ identification, by using multidimensional gas chromatography. A set of lager beers were used as case-study, and 329 volatile metabolites were determined, distributed over 8 chemical families: acids, alcohols, esters, monoterpenic compounds, norisoprenoids, sesquiterpenic compounds, sulfur compounds, and volatile phenols. From these, 96 compounds are reported for the first time in the lager beer volatile composition. Around half of them were common to all beers under study. Clustering analysis allowed a beer typing according to production system: macro- and microbrewer beers. Monoterpenic and sesquiterpenic compounds were the chemical families that showed wide range of chemical structures, which may contribute for the samples’ peculiar aroma characteristics.

Bowmana* a. Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, University of Colorado, 3415 Colorado Avenue, JSC Biotech Building, Boulder, Colorado 80303, United States *[email protected] (303-492-3247) Abstract Synthetic unilamellar liposomes, functionalized to enable novel characteristics and behavior, are of great utility to fields such as drug delivery and artificial cell membranes. However, the generation of these liposomes is frequently highly labor-intensive and time consuming whereas in situ liposome formation presents a potential solution to this problem. A novel method for in situ lipid formation is developed here through the covalent addition of a thiol-functionalized lysolipid to an acrylate-functionalized tail via the thiol-Michael addition reaction with potential for inclusion of additional functionality via the tail. Dilute, stoichiometric mixtures of a thiol lysolipid and an acrylate tail reacted in an aqueous media at ambient conditions for 48 hours reached nearly 90% conversion, forming the desired thioether-containing phospholipid product.

In this unit and in the next units, we will srudy some derivatives of hydrocarbons. Replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms in a hycimcarbon by halogen atom(s) [F, CI, Br, or I:] gives the halogen derivatives. These compounds are important laboratory and industrial solvents and serve as intermediates in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Many chlorohydrocarbons have acquired importance as insecticides. Although there are not many naturally occurring halogen derivatives yet you might be familiar with one such compound, thyroxin-a thyroid hormone. In this unit, we shall take up the chemistry of the halogen derivatives in detail beginning with classification of halogen derivatives and then going over to methods of their preparation. We shall also discuss the reactivity'of halogen compounds and focus our attention specially, on some important reactions such as nucleophilic substitution (SN)and elimination (E) reactions. Finally, we shall take up uses of halogen derivatives and the methods for their detection.

  • Dodecanol, Metabolite of Entomopathogenic Fungus
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Dodecanol, metabolite of entomopathogenic fungus Conidiobolus coronatus, afects fatty acid composition and cellular immunity of Galleria mellonella and Calliphora vicina Michalina Kazek1*, Agata Kaczmarek1, Anna Katarzyna Wrońska1 & Mieczysława Irena Boguś1,2 One group of promising pest control agents are the entomopathogenic fungi; one such example is Conidiobolus coronatus, which produces a range of metabolites. Our present fndings reveal for the frst time that C. coronatus also produces dodecanol, a compound widely used to make surfactants and pharmaceuticals, and enhance favors in food. The main aim of the study was to determine the infuence of dodecanol on insect defense systems, i.e. cuticular lipid composition and the condition of insect immunocompetent cells; hence, its efect was examined in detail on two species difering in susceptibility to fungal infection: Galleria mellonella and Calliphora vicina. Dodecanol treatment elicited signifcant quantitative and qualitative diferences in cuticular free fatty acid (FFA) profles between the species, based on gas chromatography analysis with mass spectrometry (GC/MS), and had a negative efect on G. mellonella and C. vicina hemocytes and a Sf9 cell line in vitro: after 48 h, almost all the cells were completely disintegrated. The metabolite had a negative efect on the insect defense system, suggesting that it could play an important role during C. coronatus infection. Its high insecticidal activity and lack of toxicity towards vertebrates suggest it could be an efective insecticide. In their natural environment, insects have to cope with a variety of microorganisms, and as such, have developed a complex and efcient defense system. Te frst line of defense is a cuticle formed of several layers, with an epi- cuticle on the outside, a procuticle underneath it and an epidermis beneath that.

  • Characterization of Biomethanol–Biodiesel–Diesel Blends As Alternative Fuel for Marine Applications

Manto 84, 92294 Klaipeda, Lithuania; [email protected] 3 Marine Research Institute, Klaipeda University, H. Manto 84, 92294 Klaipeda, Lithuania; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 18 August 2020; Accepted: 21 September 2020; Published: 22 September 2020 Abstract: The ambitious new International Maritime Organization (IMO) strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from ships will shape the future path towards the decarbonization of the fleet and will bring further ecological challenges. In order to replace the larger oil-based part of marine fuel with components from renewable sources, it is necessary to develop multi-component blends. In this work, biomethanol and biodiesel with two additives—dodecanol and 2-ethylhexyl nitrate— in 20 blends with marine diesel oil (MDO) were selected as alternative components to replace the pure marine diesel oil-based part of marine fuel. For this purpose, two base blends of diesel and biodiesel with and without additives were produced with biomethanol from 0 to 30% (volume basis). Of all the blends, the blends with 5% (volume basis) methanol had the best property profile in terms of density, kinematic viscosity, calorific value, cloud point, and cetane index according to the ISO 8217:2017 standard (DMB grade) in compliance with the IMO requirements for marine fuels.

  • Estimating the Octanol/Water Partition Coefficient for Aliphatic Organic Compounds Using Semi-Empirical Electrotopological Index

Received: 8 September 2011; in revised form: 8 October 2011 / Accepted: 14 October 2011 / Published: 24 October 2011 Abstract: A new possibility for estimating the octanol/water coefficient (log P) was investigated using only one descriptor, the semi-empirical electrotopological index (ISET ). The predictability of four octanol/water partition coefficient (log P) calculation models was compared using a set of 131 aliphatic organic compounds from five different classes. Log P values were calculated employing atomic-contribution methods, as in the Ghose/Crippen approach and its later refinement, AlogP; using fragmental methods through the ClogP method; and employing an approach considering the whole molecule using topological indices with the MlogP method.
