Sustainable conversion of cottonseed hulls to valuable proanthocyanidins through ultrasound-assisted deep eutectic solvent extraction.

ABSTRACT: This study presents a novel approach for converting cottonseed hulls (CSHs) into valuable proanthocyanidins (PAs) through deep eutectic solvent (DES)-based ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE-DES). Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize and model this process, resulting in maximum yields of 78.58 mg/g. The ideal PA extraction conditions were determined to be a liquid-to-material ratio of 36.25 mL/g, a water content of 33.21%, and an extraction period of 7.4 min. Molecular dynamic simulations (MDS) were performed to study the interactions between the solvent and target chemicals. Increased van der Waals forces and stronger interactions between DES and the target chemical catechin (CA) compared to those observed with methanol or water were observed. Furthermore, the optimized extract exhibited a higher PA content than can be obtained with conventional extraction methods and demonstrated antioxidant activity in vitro. The cottonseed hulls residues (CSRs) remaining after the extraction process can be used to produce activated carbon (AC_CSR), which has some capacity to adsorb methylene blue (MB) contaminants. This study offers a reference for the fruitful transformation of waste biomass into high-value products.

Project description:In this study, the deep eutectic solvent based ultrasound-assisted extraction (DES-UAE) was investigated for the efficient and environmentally friendly extraction of Selaginella chaetoloma total biflavonoids (SCTB). As an extractant for optimization, tetrapropylaminium bromide-1,4-butanediol (Tpr-But) was employed for the first time. 36 DESs were created, with Tpr-But producing the most effective results. Based on response surface methodology (RSM), the greatest extraction rate of SCTB was determined to be 21.68 ± 0.78 mg/g, the molar ratio of HBD to HBA was 3.70:1, the extraction temperature was 57 °C, and the water content of DES was 22 %. In accordance with Fick's second rule, a kinetic model for the extraction of SCTB by DES-UAE has been derived. With correlation coefficients 0.91, the kinetic model of the extraction process was significantly correlated with the general and exponential equations of kinetics, and some important kinetic parameters such as rate constants, energy of activation and raffinate rate were determined. In addition, molecular dynamics simulations were used to study the extraction mechanisms generated by different solvents. Comparing the effect of several extraction methods on S.chaetoloma using ultrasound-assisted extraction and conventional methods, together with SEM examination, revealed that DES-UAE not only saved time but also enhanced SCTB extraction rate by 1.5-3 folds. SCTB demonstrated superior antioxidant activity in three studies in vitro. Furthermore, the extract could suppress the growth of A549, HCT-116, HepG2, and HT-29 cancer cells. Alpha-Glucosidase (AG) inhibition experiment and molecular docking studies suggested that SCTB exhibited strong inhibitory activity against AG and potential hypoglycemic effects. The results of this study indicated that a Tpr-But-based UAE method was suitable for the efficient and environmentally friendly extraction of SCTB, and also shed light on the mechanisms responsible for the increased extraction efficiency, which could aid in the application of S.chaetoloma and provide insight into the extraction mechanism of DES.
