Objective: To purify caffeic acid tetramer (CAT) with macroporous resin on the basis of its fundamental physicochemical stability research.

Method: The changes of CAT content were compared by HPLC method before and after the purification process, or while other conditions were altered.

Result: LK001 was the best one among 7 kinds of macroporous resin in regard of purifying ability. The optimum absorbing technology was the solution concentration at 10 g x L(-1), pH at 4.5, and the flow rate at 3 BV x h(-1). The best eluting technology was 45% ethanol as eluting agent, pH at 5.0, eluting volume at 50 mL after applying super-purified water and 20% ethanol. The yield of product was 3. 6 percent, and the active compound CAT was 58 percent in the product.

Conclusion: Macroporous resin LK001 is effective in enriching CAT from the crude extracts, thus this method of purification is advisable.

In this study, 34 deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were successfully prepared for the extraction of proanthocyanidin from Rhodiolae Crenulatae Radix et Rhizomes. The extraction process was optimized using single factor exploration and Box-Behnken design-response surface analysis. The extraction rate was significantly improved when the molar ratio of choline chloride to 1,3-propanediol was 1:3.

The development of novel methods to enhance enzyme-carrier interactions in situ, at a feasible cost, and on a large scale is crucial for improving the stability and durability of current immobilized enzyme systems used in industrial settings. Here, a pioneering approach termed "silica-based inorganic glue" is proposed, which utilizes protein-catalyzed silicification to fix enzyme within porous matrix while preserving enzyme activity. This innovative strategy offers several key benefits, including conformational stabilization of enzymes, improved interactions between enzymes and the matrix, prevention of enzyme leakage, and mitigation of pore blocking.

In this paper, the structures and composition of phlorotannins with different molecular weights in juvenile and mature kelp (Saccharina japonica), as well as their relationship with antioxidant activity were comprehensively analyzed. Macroporous resin and ultrafiltration were used to obtain phlorotannins with different molecular weights. The structures of low molecular weight and high molecular weight phlorotannins in Sanhai kelp were analyzed using UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS/MS and NMR techniques, respectively.
