Eight terpenoids(1-8) were isolated from the ethyl acetate soluble fraction of 80% ethanol extract of leaf of Toona sinensis through various column chromatographies on silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, MCI and ODS. Their structures were elucidated as 8β-hydroxypimar-15-en-19-oic acid methyl ester(1), cedrodorol B(2), 11β-acetoxyobacunol(3), toonayunnanin D(4), toonaciliatone D(5), toonaciliatone A(6), cedrelone(7), and 11β-hydroxygedunin(8) based on their chemical and physicochemical methods and spectroscopic data. Compound 1 was a new pimaradienediterpenoid and terpenoid 2-7 were isolated and identified from this plant for the first time. Compound 1 was tested in vitro for cytotoxic potential by employing MTT method and radical scavenging potential using DPPH test. As a result, 1 exhibited weak cytotoxic activity against three tested tumor cell lines(SMMC-7721, A549 and MCF-7) with IC_(50) values less than 40 μmol·L~(-1) and moderate radical scavenging activities with IC_(50) values of 74.3 μmol·L~(-1).

In this study, bio-based composite films with enhanced barrier, mechanical, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties were prepared by incorporating Stropharia rugosoannulata waste (SP)-derived polysaccharides (SPP) and carbon dots (SPCDs) as an active substance into gelatin (GEL) matrix, which were evaluated for their potential application in pork preservation. The effects of varying concentrations of SPCDs on the morphology, microstructure, and overall performance of the films were systematically investigated. The findings demonstrated that the addition of SPCDs to the GEL/SPP matrix significantly improved the mechanical strength, water vapor permeability, and ultraviolet light blocking ability of the composite films.

Sensitive intelligent films can be used to accurately monitor food freshness. In this study, a cellulose acetate curcumin-loaded cyclodextrin (CD)-based metal-organic framework intelligent film (CA-Cur@CD-MOF) was developed to monitor shrimp freshness at different spoilage stages in real time. The mechanical, barrier, optical, and ammonia-sensitive properties of this film were studied.

Postharvest quality deterioration is a major factor affecting the economic value and marketing of Nanfeng tangerines. The objective of this study was to explore the effects of luteolin treatment on the postharvest quality and antioxidant capacity of Nanfeng tangerines. We applied 1 g/L and 3 g/L luteolin to fruit after harvest and evaluated the decay rate, postharvest quality, and antioxidant capacity during a 60-day storage period at room temperature.
