    toxins Article Suspect and Target Screening of Natural Toxins in the Ter River Catchment Area in NE Spain and Prioritisation by Their Toxicity Massimo Picardo 1 , Oscar Núñez 2,3 and Marinella Farré 1,* 1 Department of Environmental Chemistry, IDAEA-CSIC, 08034 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] 2 Department of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Chemistry, University of Barcelona, 08034 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] 3 Serra Húnter Professor, Generalitat de Catalunya, 08034 Barcelona, Spain * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 5 October 2020; Accepted: 26 November 2020; Published: 28 November 2020 Abstract: This study presents the application of a suspect screening approach to screen a wide range of natural toxins, including mycotoxins, bacterial toxins, and plant toxins, in surface waters. The method is based on a generic solid-phase extraction procedure, using three sorbent phases in two cartridges that are connected in series, hence covering a wide range of polarities, followed by liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry. The acquisition was performed in the full-scan and data-dependent modes while working under positive and negative ionisation conditions. This method was applied in order to assess the natural toxins in the Ter River water reservoirs, which are used to produce drinking water for Barcelona city (Spain). The study was carried out during a period of seven months, covering the expected prior, during, and post-peak blooming periods of the natural toxins. Fifty-three (53) compounds were tentatively identified, and nine of these were confirmed and quantified. Phytotoxins were identified as the most frequent group of natural toxins in the water, particularly the alkaloids group.

The aim of this study was to investigate the analgesic/antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of the ethanol extracts of C. anisata root (CRE), A. polycarpa stem (ASE) and root barks (AR) in order to provide scientific justification for their use as anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents. Analgesic activity was evaluated using the hot plate and the acetic acid induced writhing assays. The mechanism of antinociception was evaluated by employing pharmacological antagonism assays at the opioid and cholinergic receptors in the hot plate and the writhing assays.

(Revised received 18 August 1987) Key Word Index-Umbelliferae; Leguminosae; furanocoumarins; flavonoids; Fusaria; trichothecene toxins. Abstract-Certain naturally occurring flavonoids and furanocoumarins are inhibitors of trichothecene toxin biosynthesis. These compounds block T-2 biosynthesis in liquid cultures of Fusarium sporotrichioides NRRL 3299 at concentrations substantially less than required to block fungal growth. Inhibited cultures accumulate variable amounts of trichodiene. the hydrocarbon precursor of the trichothecenes. These inhibitors appear to block the trichothecene biosynthetic pathway after formation of trichodiene and before formation of highly oxygenated trichothecenes. Exposure to these widely occurring plant shikimate aromatics may inhibit trichothecene production during plant pathogenesis. INTRODUCTION Plants produce a great diversity ofsecondary metabolites as normal constituents and as phytoalexins induced by fungal infection. Many of these compounds have been shown to inhibit fungal growth in vitro and have been postulated to similarly restrict fungal growth in plant tissues [1].

  • 1 Alkaloid Drugs
    1 Alkaloid Drugs Most plant alkaloids are derivatives of tertiary amines, while others contain primary, secondary or quarternary nitrogen. The basicity of individual alkaloids varies consider- ably, depending on which of the four types is represented. The pK, values (dissociation constants) lie in the range of 10-12 for very weak bases (e.g. purines), of 7-10 for weak bases (e.g. Cinchona alkaloids) and of 3-7 for medium-strength bases (e.g. Opium alkaloids). 1.1 Preparation of Extracts Alkaloid drugs with medium to high alkaloid contents (31%) Powdered drug (Lg) is mixed thoroughly with Iml 10Yo ammonia solution or 10% General method, Na,CO, solution and then extracted for lOmin with 5ml methanol under reflux. The extraction filtrate is then concentrated according to the total alltaloids of the specific drug, so that method A 100p1 contains 50-100pg total alkaloids (see drug list, section 1.4). Rarmalae semen: Powdered drug (Ig) is extracted with lOml methanol for 30min Exception under reflux. The filtrate is diluted 1:10 with methanol and 20pl is used for TLC. Strychni semen: Powdered seeds (Ig) are defatted with 20 rnl n-hexane for 30min under reflux. The defatted seeds are then extracted with lOml methanol for lOmin under reflux. A total of 30yl of the filtrate is used for TL.C. Colchici semen: Powdered seeds (1 g) are defatted with 20 ml n-hexane for 30 min under reflux. The defiitted seeds are then extracted for 15 min with 10ml chloroform. After this, 0.4ml 10% NH, is added to the mixture, shaken vigorously and allowed to stand for about 30min before fillration.

  • Chemistry and Health Effects of Furanocoumarins in Grapefruit
    journal of food and drug analysis xxx (2016) 1e13 Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect journal homepage: www.jfda-online.com Review Article Chemistry and health effects of furanocoumarins in grapefruit * Wei-Lun Hung, Joon Hyuk Suh, Yu Wang Citrus Research and Education Center, Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition, University of Florida, Lake Alfred, FL, USA article info abstract Article history: Furanocoumarins are a specific group of secondary metabolites that commonly present in Received 1 September 2016 higher plants, such as citrus plants. The major furanocoumarins found in grapefruits 0 0 Received in revised form (Citrus paradisi) include bergamottin, epoxybergamottin, and 6 ,7 -dihydroxybergamottin. 2 November 2016 During biosynthesis of these furanocoumarins, coumarins undergo biochemical modifi- Accepted 3 November 2016 cations corresponding to a prenylation reaction catalyzed by the cytochrome P450 enzymes Available online xxx with the subsequent formation of furan rings. Because of undesirable interactions with several medications, many studies have developed methods for grapefruit furanocoumarin Keywords: quantification that include high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with UV anticancer activity detector or mass spectrometry. The distribution of furanocoumarins in grapefruits is bergamottin affected by several environmental conditions, such as processing techniques, storage bone health temperature, and packing materials. In the past few years, grapefruit furanocoumarins furanocoumarins have been demonstrated to exhibit several biological activities including antioxidative, grapefruit -inflammatory, and -cancer activities as well as bone health promotion both in vitro and in vivo. Notably, furanocoumarins potently exerted antiproliferative activities against cancer cell growth through modulation of several molecular pathways, such as regulation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, nuclear factor-kB, phosphatidy- linositol-3-kinase/AKT, and mitogen-activated protein kinase expression.
