AB  - The enzymatic degradation of azo dyes is a promising alternative to ineffective chemical and physical remediation methods. Lignin peroxidase (LiP) from Phanerochaete chrysosporium is a heme-containing lignin-degrading oxidoreductase that catalyzes the peroxide-dependent oxidation of diverse molecules, including industrial dyes. This enzyme is therefore ideal as a starting point for protein engineering. Accordingly, we subjected two positions (165 and 264) in the environment of the catalytic Trp171 residue to saturation mutagenesis, and the resulting library of 104 independent clones was expressed on the surface of yeast cells. This yeast display library was used for the selection of variants with the ability to break down structurally-distinct azo dyes more efficiently. We identified mutants with up to 10-fold greater affinity than wild-type LiP for three diverse azo dyes (Evans blue, amido black 10B and Guinea green) and up to 13-fold higher catalytic activity. Additionally, cell wall fragments displaying mutant LiP enzymes were prepared by toluene-induced cell lysis, achieving significant increases in both enzyme activity and stability compared to a whole-cell biocatalyst. LiP-coated cell wall fragments retained their initial dye degradation activity after 10 reaction cycles each lasting 8 h. The best-performing mutants removed up to 2.5-fold more of each dye than the wild-type LiP in multiple reaction cycles.

AB  - Conventional chemotherapy is the most common therapeutic method for treating cancer by the application of small toxic molecules thatinteract with DNA and causecell death. Unfortunately, these chemotherapeutic agents are non-selective and can damage both cancer and healthy tissues, producing diverse side effects, andthey can have a short circulation half-life and limited targeting. Many synthetic polymers have found application as nanocarriers of intelligent drug delivery systems (DDSs). Their unique physicochemical properties allow them to carry drugs with high efficiency, specificallytarget cancer tissue and control drug release. In recent years, considerable efforts have been made to design smart nanoplatforms, including amphiphilic block copolymers, polymer-drug conjugates and in particular pH- and redox-stimuli-responsive nanoparticles (NPs). This review is focused on a new generation of polymer-based DDSs with specific chemical functionalities that improve their hydrophilicity, drug loading and cellular interactions.Recentlydesigned multifunctional DDSs used in cancer therapy are highlighted in this review.

AB  - Lignin peroxidase (LiP) is a heme-containing oxidoreductase that oxidizes structurally diverse substrates in an H2O2-dependent manner. Its ability to oxidize many pollutants makes it suitable for bioremediation applications and an ideal candidate for optimization by mutagenesis and selection. In order to increase oxidative stability of LiP we generated a random mutagenesis library comprising 106 mutated LiP genes and screened for expressed enzymes with higher than wild-type activity after incubation in 30 mM H2O2 by flow cytometry with fluorescein-tyramide as a substrate. To preserve the genotype-phenotype connection, the LiP mutants were displayed on the yeast cell surface. Two rounds of sorting were performed, recovered colonies were then screened in microtiter plates, and activity analysis revealed a significant increase in the percentage of cells expressing LiP variants with higher oxidative stability than wtLiP. Two rounds of sorting increased the proportion of more-stable variants from 1.4% in the original library to 52.3%. The most stable variants after two rounds of sorting featured between two and four mutations and retained up to 80% of initial activity after 1 h incubation in 30 mM H2O2. We for the first-time applied flow cytometry for screening of any ligninolytic peroxidase library. Obtained results suggest that developed system may be applied for improvement of industrially important characteristics of lignin peroxidase.

AB  - Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH, EC 1.1.99.18) from white rot fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium can be used for constructing biosensors and biofuel cells, for bleaching cotton in textile industry, and recently, the enzyme has found an important application in biomedicine as an antimicrobial and antibiofilm agent. Stability and activity of the wild-type (wt) CDH and mutants at methionine residues in the presence of hydrogen peroxide were investigated. Saturation mutagenesis libraries were made at the only methionine in heme domain M65 and two methionines M685 and M738 in the flavin domain that were closest to the active site. After screening the libraries, three mutants with increased activity and stability in the presence of peroxide were found, M65F with 70% of residual activity after 6 h of incubation in 0.3 M hydrogen peroxide, M738S with 80% of residual activity and M685Y with over 90% of residual activity compared to wild-type CDH that retained 40% of original activity. Combined mutants showed no activity. The most stable mutant M685Y with 5.8 times increased half-life in the presence of peroxide showed also 2.5 times increased kcat for lactose compared to wtCDH and could be good candidate for applications in biofuel cells and biocatalysis for lactobionic acid production.

AB  - Production of soluble cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) mutant proteins previously evolved on the surface of S. cerevisiae yeast cells was established for use in biosensors and biofuel cells. For this purpose, mutant cdh genes tm (D20N, A64T, V592M), H5 (D20N, V22A, A64T, V592M) and H9 (D20N, A64T, T84A, A261P, V592M, E674G, N715S) were cloned to pPICZα plasmid and transformed into Pichia pastoris KM71H strain for high expression in a soluble form and kinetic characterization. After 6 days of expression under methanol induction, the CDHs were purified by ultrafiltration, ion- -exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis confirmed the purity and presence of a single protein band at a molecular weight of 100 kDa. Kinetic characterization showed that the H5 mutant had the highest catalytic constant of 43.5 s-1 for lactose, while the mutant H9 showed the highest specificity constant for lactose of 132 mM-1 s-1. All three mutant proteins did not change the pH optimum that was between 4.5 and 5.5. Compared to the previously obtained wild types and mutants of CDH from Phanerochaete chrysosporium, the variants reported in this article had higher activity and specificity that together with high protein expression rate in P. pastoris, makes them good candidates for use in biotechnology for lactobionic acid production and biosensor manufacture.
AB  - У циљу употребе у биосензорима и биогоривним ћелијама, успостављена је производњарастворних облика целобиоза дехидрогеназе (CDH) претходно еволуираних на површиниквашчевих ћелија S. cerevisiae. У ту сврху су мутанти CDH, tm (D20N, A64T, V592M), H5(D20N, V22A, A64T, V592M) и H9 (D20N, A64T, T84A, A261P, V592M, E674G, N715S)клонирани у pPICZα плазмид и трансформисани у Pichia pastoris KM71H сој за високуекспресију у растворном облику и кинетичку карактеризацију. После 6 дана експресије подиндукцијом метанолом, мутанти су пречишћени ултрафилтрацијом, јоноизмењивачкомхроматографијом и гел-филтрацијом. SDS електрофореза је потврдила чистоћу уз присуствоједне протеинске траке молекулскe масe од 100 kDa. Кинетичка карактеризација је показалада H5 мутирани протеин поседује највећу каталитичку константу од 43,5 s-1 за лактозу, докје H9 имао највећу константу специфичности за лактозу од 132 mM-1 s-1. Сва три мутиранапротеина су имала неизмењен pH оптимум који је био у опсегу од 4,5 до 5,5. У поређењу сапретходно добијеним природним и мутантним облицима CDH протеина из Phanerochaetechrysosporium, облици приказани у овом раду имају већу активност и специфичност, што их,повезано са високом експресијом протеина у P. Pastoris, чини добрим кандидатима за упо-требу у биотехнологији за производњу лактобионске киселине и биосензора.

For this purpose, mutant cdh genes tm (D20N, A64T, V592M), H5 (D20N, V22A, A64T, V592M) and H9 (D20N, A64T, T84A, A261P, V592M, E674G, N715S) were cloned to pPICZα plasmid and transformed into Pichia pastoris KM71H strain for high expression in a soluble form and kinetic characterization. After 6 days of expression under methanol induction, the CDHs were purified by ultrafiltration, ion- -exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis confirmed the purity and presence of a single protein band at a molecular weight of 100 kDa. Kinetic characterization showed that the H5 mutant had the highest catalytic constant of 43.5 s-1 for lactose, while the mutant H9 showed the highest specificity constant for lactose of 132 mM-1 s-1. All three mutant proteins did not change the pH optimum that was between 4.5 and 5.5. Compared to the previously obtained wild types and mutants of CDH from Phanerochaete chrysosporium, the variants reported in this article had higher activity and specificity that together with high protein expression rate in P. pastoris, makes them good candidates for use in biotechnology for lactobionic acid production and biosensor manufacture., У циљу употребе у биосензорима и биогоривним ћелијама, успостављена је производњарастворних облика целобиоза дехидрогеназе (CDH) претходно еволуираних на површиниквашчевих ћелија S. cerevisiae. У ту сврху су мутанти CDH, tm (D20N, A64T, V592M), H5(D20N, V22A, A64T, V592M) и H9 (D20N, A64T, T84A, A261P, V592M, E674G, N715S)клонирани у pPICZα плазмид и трансформисани у Pichia pastoris KM71H сој за високуекспресију у растворном облику и кинетичку карактеризацију. После 6 дана експресије подиндукцијом метанолом, мутанти су пречишћени ултрафилтрацијом, јоноизмењивачкомхроматографијом и гел-филтрацијом. SDS електрофореза је потврдила чистоћу уз присуствоједне протеинске траке молекулскe масe од 100 kDa. Кинетичка карактеризација је показалада H5 мутирани протеин поседује највећу каталитичку константу од 43,5 s-1 за лактозу, докје H9 имао највећу константу специфичности за лактозу од 132 mM-1 s-1. Сва три мутиранапротеина су имала неизмењен pH оптимум који је био у опсегу од 4,5 до 5,5. У поређењу сапретходно добијеним природним и мутантним облицима CDH протеина из Phanerochaetechrysosporium, облици приказани у овом раду имају већу активност и специфичност, што их,повезано са високом експресијом протеина у P. Pastoris, чини добрим кандидатима за упо-требу у биотехнологији за производњу лактобионске киселине и биосензора.",

AB  - Azo dyes are toxic and carcinogenic synthetic pigments that accumulate as pollutants in aquatic bodies near textile factories. The pigments are structurally diverse, and bioremediation is mostly limited to single dye compounds or related groups. Versatile peroxidase (VP) from Pleurotus eryngii is a heme-containing peroxidase with a broad substrate spectrum that can break down many structurally distinct pollutants, including azo dyes. The utilization of this enzyme could be facilitated by engineering to modify its catalytic activity and substrate range. We used saturation mutagenesis to alter two amino acids in the catalytic tryptophan environment of VP (V160 and A260). Library screening with three azo dyes revealed that these two positions had a significant influence on substrate specificity. We were able to isolate and sequence VP variants with up to 16-fold higher catalytic efficiency for different azo dyes. The same approach could be used to select for VP variants that catalyze the degradation of many other types of pollutants. To allow multiple cycles of dye degradation, we immobilized VP on the surface of yeast cells and used washed cell wall fragments after lysis. VP embedded in the cell wall retained ∼70 % of its initial activity after 10 cycles of dye degradation each lasting 12 h, making this platform ideal for the bioremediation of environments contaminated with azo dyes.

AB  - Pleurotus eryngii wild-type versatile peroxidase (wtVP) oxidizes structurally diverse substrates in an H2O2-dependent manner, but its ability to oxidize many pollutants is limited by suicidal enzyme inactivation in the presence of excess H2O2. To address this drawback, we generated random mutagenesis libraries containing 3 × 106 mutated VP genes and screened for enzymes with higher oxidative stability expressed on the surface of yeast cells. This was achieved by flow cytometry using the substrate fluorescein tyramide. After two rounds of sorting, the percentage of cells expressing variants with improved oxidative stability had increased from 1 % to 56 %. The most stable variants featured 3–5 amino acid substitutions and retained up to 70 % of their initial activity after incubation for 1 h in 30 mM H2O2 (conditions that completely inactivate wtVP). Selected variants were extracted from yeast cell walls and purified for kinetic characterization. We also prepared yeast cell walls with wtVP and the three most stable VP variants for multiple cycles of azo dye (Reactive black 5) degradation. After 10 cycles of 12 h, two of the variants retained more than 97 % of their initial activity, whereas the activity of wtVP declined by ∼30 %. These results confirm that our high-throughput screening system can improve the oxidative stability of versatile peroxidase, providing a source of novel enzymes for remediation applications.

AB  - Due to its divergent chemical composition and good nutritional properties, pollen is not only important as a potential food supplement but also as a good substrate for the development of different microorganisms. Among such microorganisms, toxigenic fungi are extremely dangerous as they can synthesize mycotoxins as a part of their metabolic pathways. Furthermore, favorable conditions that enable the synthesis of mycotoxins (adequate temperature, relative humidity, pH, and a w values) are found frequently during pollen collection and/or production process. Internationally, several different mycotoxins have been identified in pollen samples, with a noted predominance of aflatoxins, ochratoxins, fumonisins, zearalenone, deoxynivalenol, and T-2 toxin. Mycotoxins are, generally speaking, extremely harmful for humans and other mammals. Current EU legislation contains guidelines on the permissible content of this group of compounds, but without information pertaining to the content of mycotoxins in pollen. Currently only aflatoxins have been researched and discussed in the literature in regard to proposed limits. Therefore, the aim of this review is to give information about the presence of different mycotoxins in pollen samples collected all around the world, to propose possible aflatoxin contamination pathways, and to emphasize the importance of a regular mycotoxicological analysis of pollen. Furthermore, a suggestion is made regarding the legal regulation of pollen as a food supplement and the proposed tolerable limits for other mycotoxins.

AB  - Nanotechnology is an emerging field of science, and nanotechnological concepts have been intensively studied for potential applications in the food industry. Nanoparticles (with dimensions ranging from one to several hundred nanometers) have specific characteristics and better functionality, thanks to their size and other physicochemical properties. Polyphenols are recognized as active compounds that have several putative beneficial properties, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer activity. However, the use of polyphenols as functional food ingredients faces numerous challenges, such as their poor stability, solubility, and bioavailability. These difficulties could be solved relatively easily by the application of encapsulation. The objective of this review is to present the most recent accomplishments in the usage of polyphenol-loaded nanoparticles in food science. Nanoparticles loaded with polyphenols and their applications as active ingredients for improving physicochemical and functional properties of food, or as components of active packaging materials, were critically reviewed. Potential adverse effects of polyphenol-loaded nanomaterials are also discussed.

AB  - Cancer is one of the most common fatal diseases in humans nowadays. About 20 million new cancer cases are expected in the next two decades worldwide. The development of new chemotherapeutic agents with improved properties is presently the main challenge in the medicinal chemistry. Cisplatin was introduced to oncology in 1978 as first chemotherapeutic agent regarding its specific interaction with DNA, leading to its damage and causing the cell death. Since the first application of cisplatin in cancer therapy, there has been a growing interest in new metal-based compounds, in particular platinum and ruthenium complexes, with better anticancer activity and less side-effects compared to cisplatin. Carboplatin and oxaliplatin have shown promising action against some types of cancer, which are resistant to cisplatin. With the aim to overcome cross-resistance to these Pt(II) drugs, bioavailable platinum complexes (satraplatin and picoplatin) firstly found application as orally administered drugs, as well as some combined therapies of Pt(II) drugs (cisplatin, picoplatin) with specific resistant modulators. In recent years, novel polymer and liposomal formulations of platinum drugs (prolindac, lipoplatin, lipoxal, aroplatin) have been designed with strategy to improve drug delivery to target cancer cells and reduce toxicity. Complexes based on ruthenium have great potential to become leading candidates for the medical use in anticancer therapy. Some of these compounds have shown good anticancer activity, both in vitro and in vivo and two of them (KP1019 and NAMI-A) have passed clinical trials and given promising results.

AB  - The multicomponent mixtures consisting of herbs and fungi are commonly used for the production of alcoholic beverages with potential health-promoting effects in many Asian countries. The medicinal fungus Ganoderma lucidum is one of the most important fungi used for spirit production. Although this fungus affects the aromatic complexity of spirits, only a small number of studies have focused on investigating the influence of G. lucidum on the aromatic profile and colour of spirits. The aim of the research is to evaluate the influence of adding G. lucidum and herbal extract on final concentrations of volatile compounds and sensory quality of several distillates. In this study, distillates (grain, plum, grape and wine) were used to produce new spirit-based beverages with the fungus G. lucidum only, or with the fungus and herbal extract. Fifty-nine aroma compounds were identified by GC-MS. The aromatic profiles were strongly influenced by the primary aromas of the distillates, but the addition of G. lucidum and herbal extract enriched the volatile fraction of distillates with a range of ethyl esters, with a fruity and floral fragrance. Higher alcohols, 1-propanol, 2-isobutanol and isoamyl alcohol, were the most abundant volatile compounds in the analyzed distillates and spirits. The lightness of distillates was from 60.7 to 63.6, and with the addition of Ganoderma it significantly decreased to the range from 43.6 to 50.5. The addition of the fungus also increased the intensity of red and yellow colours. The Ganoderma spirits scored very highly in sensory evaluation (17.6-18.3), significantly better than the spirits without any additions (16.1-16.9).

Oksidacijom laktoze dolazi do formiranja laktobionske kiseline koja pronalazi veliku primenu u farmaceutskoj i kozmetičkoj industriji gde se koristi prilikom distribucije lekova i za hidrataciju kože kao sastavni deo različitih krema, gde zajedno sa hijaluronskom kiselinu ima ulogu u smanjenju bora.Celobioza – dehidrogenaza prilikom oksidacije laktoze ili celobioze, kao prirodnih supstrata, katalizuje redukciju jednog dvoelektronskog ili dva jednoelektronska akceptora elektrona. Jedan od najkorišćenijih dvoelektronskih akceptora elektrona je upravo dihlor fenol indofenol (DCIP), dok jednoelektronski akceptori elektrona mogu biti citohrom c, ABTS, ali i Fe3+ i Mn3+ joni. Redukcijom Fe3+ jona u prisustvu molekulskog kiseonika dolazi do formiranja vodonik peroksida i posredstvom Fentonove reakcije do generisanja hidroksil radikala.Polazeći od ove činjenice, iskoristili smo upravo Fentonovu reakciju za razvoj fluorescentnog eseja za visoko efikasnu pretragu biblioteka gena celobioza – dehidrogenaze, baziranog na detekciji proizvedenih hidroksil radikala fluorogenom probom aminofenil – fluoresceinom (APF).Primena celobioza – dehidrogenaze u konstruisanju biosenzora i biogorivnih ćelija leži upravo u njenoj sposobnosti da katalizuje oksidaciju laktoze, celobioze i β – 1,4 – vezanih oligosaharida do odgovarajućih laktona koji potom spontano hidrolizuju do aldonskih kiselina. Enzimi koji nalaze primenu u konstruisanju biosenzora i biogorivnih ćelija, moraju da zadovoljavaju nekoliko kriterijuma,odnosno moraju da imaju veliku osetljivost i supstratnu specifičnost, ali i da pokazuju povećanu stabilnost...
AB  - Cellobiose dehydrogenase from Phanerochaete chrysosporium, a white rot fungus, belongs to the extracellular oxidoreductive group of enzymes and catalyzes the oxidation of the β – 1,4 – glycoside bond of oligosaccharides such as cellobiose and lactose. During oxidation of lactose, formation of lactobionic acid occurs which has many applications in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry. Such applications include the distribution of medicine, a component responsible for skin hydration and when combined with hyaluronic acid as an agent against wrinkles.During oxidation of lactose or cellobiose by cellobiose dehydrogenase, reduction catalysis occurs of one two electron or two one electron acceptors. One of the most utilized two electron acceptors is DCIP, while one electron acceptors are usually cytochrome c, ABTS, Fe3+ and Mn3+ ions. During reduction of Fe3+ ions in the presence of molecular oxygen, H2O2 is formed and due to the Fenton reaction formation of hydroxyl radicals occurs. Due to this occurrence we wanted to use the Fenton reaction in order to develop a fluorescent assay based on the production of hydroxyl radicals and the fluorescence of aminophenyl fluorescein (APF). This would allow us to efficiently analyze cellobiose dehydrogenase gene libraries.With this fact in mind, the Fenton reaction was used to develop a fluorescent assay for the high throughput screening of cellobiose dehydrogenase genes, based on the detection of hydroxyl radicals with the fluorescent probe APF.The possible application of cellobiose dehydrogenase in the construction of various biosensors and biofuel cells is due the its ability to catalyze the oxidation of lactose, cellobiose and similar β – 1,4 – oligosaccharides do their corresponding lactones which then spontaneously hydrolyze to aldonic acids. Enzymes used in suchapplications need to satisfy certain criteria, such as exceptional sensitivity, substrate selectivity, stability and activity...

Redukcijom Fe3+ jona u prisustvu molekulskog kiseonika dolazi do formiranja vodonik peroksida i posredstvom Fentonove reakcije do generisanja hidroksil radikala.Polazeći od ove činjenice, iskoristili smo upravo Fentonovu reakciju za razvoj fluorescentnog eseja za visoko efikasnu pretragu biblioteka gena celobioza – dehidrogenaze, baziranog na detekciji proizvedenih hidroksil radikala fluorogenom probom aminofenil – fluoresceinom (APF).Primena celobioza – dehidrogenaze u konstruisanju biosenzora i biogorivnih ćelija leži upravo u njenoj sposobnosti da katalizuje oksidaciju laktoze, celobioze i β – 1,4 – vezanih oligosaharida do odgovarajućih laktona koji potom spontano hidrolizuju do aldonskih kiselina. Enzimi koji nalaze primenu u konstruisanju biosenzora i biogorivnih ćelija, moraju da zadovoljavaju nekoliko kriterijuma,odnosno moraju da imaju veliku osetljivost i supstratnu specifičnost, ali i da pokazuju povećanu stabilnost..., Cellobiose dehydrogenase from Phanerochaete chrysosporium, a white rot fungus, belongs to the extracellular oxidoreductive group of enzymes and catalyzes the oxidation of the β – 1,4 – glycoside bond of oligosaccharides such as cellobiose and lactose. During oxidation of lactose, formation of lactobionic acid occurs which has many applications in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry. Such applications include the distribution of medicine, a component responsible for skin hydration and when combined with hyaluronic acid as an agent against wrinkles.During oxidation of lactose or cellobiose by cellobiose dehydrogenase, reduction catalysis occurs of one two electron or two one electron acceptors. One of the most utilized two electron acceptors is DCIP, while one electron acceptors are usually cytochrome c, ABTS, Fe3+ and Mn3+ ions. During reduction of Fe3+ ions in the presence of molecular oxygen, H2O2 is formed and due to the Fenton reaction formation of hydroxyl radicals occurs. Due to this occurrence we wanted to use the Fenton reaction in order to develop a fluorescent assay based on the production of hydroxyl radicals and the fluorescence of aminophenyl fluorescein (APF). This would allow us to efficiently analyze cellobiose dehydrogenase gene libraries.With this fact in mind, the Fenton reaction was used to develop a fluorescent assay for the high throughput screening of cellobiose dehydrogenase genes, based on the detection of hydroxyl radicals with the fluorescent probe APF.The possible application of cellobiose dehydrogenase in the construction of various biosensors and biofuel cells is due the its ability to catalyze the oxidation of lactose, cellobiose and similar β – 1,4 – oligosaccharides do their corresponding lactones which then spontaneously hydrolyze to aldonic acids. Enzymes used in suchapplications need to satisfy certain criteria, such as exceptional sensitivity, substrate selectivity, stability and activity...",

AB  - Lipophilic derivatives of vitamin C are additives with antioxidant properties, attractive for application in food, cosmetics and pharmaceutics. They could be synthesized in lipase-catalyzed processes by using various acyl donors. Hereby, we present application of linoleic acid, which is polyunsaturated fatty acid essential in human nutrition, for esterification of vitamin C catalyzed by immobilized enzyme preparation Novozym® 435 in acetone. Highest specific ester yield, 9.7 mmol/g of immobilized lipase, was accomplished with 0.15 M of vitamin C, 0.6 M of linoleic acid, 3 g/l of enzyme and 0.07% (v/v) of water, at 60°C. NMR analyses of purified product proved that synthesized molecule was identical to 6-O-ascorbyl linoleate. Capacity of ester for scavenging 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radicals was two times higher comparing to parent molecule, vitamin C. Its diffusion coefficient, determined using Franz cell and cellulose acetate membrane, was 40% higher than palmitate and 62% higher than oleate. Obtained results showed that L-ascorbyl linoleate could be successfully synthesized in biocatalyzed processes. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that it possess high potential for application in different lipophilic products due to its liposolubility, high antioxidant efficiency and good diffusion properties.

AB  - A commercial preparation of Candida rugosa lipases (CRL) was tested for the production of capsinoids by esterification of vanillyl alcohol (VA) with free fatty acids (FA) and coconut oil (CO) as acyl donors. Screening of FA chain length indicated that C8-C12 FA (the most common FA found in CO triglycerides) are the best acyl-donors, yielding 80-85% of their specific capsinoids. Hence, when CO, which is rich in these FA, was used as the substrate, a mixture of capsinoids (vanillyl caprylate, vanillyl decanoate and vanillyl laurate) was obtained. The findings presented here suggest that our experimental method can be applied for the enrichment of CO with capsinoids, thus giving it additional health promoting properties.

AB  - Solubility and stability of flavonoid glycosides, valuable natural constituents of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, could be improved by lipase-catalyzed acylation. Focus of this study was on development of eco-friendly process for the production of flavonoid acetates. By using phloridzin as model compound and triacetin as acetyl donor and solvent, 100% conversion and high productivity (23.32 gl(-1) day(-1)) were accomplished. Complete conversions of two other glycosylated flavonoids, naringin and esculin, in solvent-free system were achieved, as well. Comprehensive kinetic mechanism based on two con-secutive mono-substrate reactions was established where first one represents formation of flavonoid monoacetate and within second reaction diacetate is being produced from monoacetate. Both steps were regarded as reversible Michaelis-Menten reactions without inhibition. Apparent kinetic parameters for two consecutive reactions (V-m constants for substrates and products and Km constants for forward and reverse reactions) were estimated for three examined acetyl acceptors and excellent fitting of experimental data (R-2 gt 0.97) was achieved. Obtained results showed that derived kinetic model could be applicable for solvent-free esterifications of different flavonoid glycosides. It was valid for entire transesterification course (72 h of reaction) which, combined with complete conversions and green character of synthesis, represents firm basis for further process development.

Complete conversions of two other glycosylated flavonoids, naringin and esculin, in solvent-free system were achieved, as well. Comprehensive kinetic mechanism based on two con-secutive mono-substrate reactions was established where first one represents formation of flavonoid monoacetate and within second reaction diacetate is being produced from monoacetate. Both steps were regarded as reversible Michaelis-Menten reactions without inhibition. Apparent kinetic parameters for two consecutive reactions (V-m constants for substrates and products and Km constants for forward and reverse reactions) were estimated for three examined acetyl acceptors and excellent fitting of experimental data (R-2 gt 0.97) was achieved. Obtained results showed that derived kinetic model could be applicable for solvent-free esterifications of different flavonoid glycosides. It was valid for entire transesterification course (72 h of reaction) which, combined with complete conversions and green character of synthesis, represents firm basis for further process development.

AB  - Assessment of microbiological quality of bee collected pollen is very important, because of its use as a supplement in the human diet. In this study, 26 samples collected from different location in Serbia were tested for the presence of mold through mycologial analysis. The presence of aflatoxin B1, one of the most dangerous and the most widespread mycotoxin was also determined. It was established that 10 of the investigated samples were contaminated with some genera or species of mold, but all of the investigated samples were contaminated with aflatoxin B1. Considering that there is no unique and official procedure for mycological analysis of bee collected pollen, these findings suggest the need for their establishment. Mycological analysis should be followed by mycotoxicological analysis since the absence of mold does not confirm the absence of aflatoxin B1 in bee pollen.

AB  - Antioxidant (AO) capacity of chocolates with 27, 44 and 75 % cocoa was assessed after production and during twelve months of storage by direct current (DC) polarographic assay, based on the decrease of anodic current caused by the formation of hydroxo-perhydroxyl mercury(II) complex (HPMC) in alkaline solutions of hydrogen peroxide at potentials of mercury oxidation, and two spectrophotometric assays. Relative antioxidant capacity index (RACI) was calculated by taking the average value of the AO assay (the sample mass in all assays was identical). Oxidative stability of chocolate fat was determined by differential scanning calorimetry. Measured parameters and RACI were correlated mutually and with the content of total phenols (Folin-Ciocalteu assay), flavan-3-ols (vanillin and p-dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde assay) and proanthocyanidins (modified Bate-Smith assay). During storage, the studied functional and health-related characteristics remained unchanged. Amongst applied AO assays, the DC polarographic one, whose validity was confirmed by two-way ANOVA and F-test, correlated most significantly with oxidative stability (oxidation onset temperature and induction time). In addition, principal component analysis was applied to characterise chocolate types.
