Human milk xanthine oxidase and neonatal salivary nucleotide precursors generate hydrogen peroxide; a novel pathway with potential role in regulating oral microflora

Background: Xanthine oxidase (XO) is a complex molybdeno-flavoprotein occurring with high activity in the milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) in all mammalian milk and is involved in the final stage of degradation of purine nucleotides. It catalyzes the sequential oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine and uric acid, accompanied by production of hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anion. Human saliva has been extensively described for its composition of proteins, electrolytes, cortisol, melatonin and some metabolites such as amino acids, but little is known about nucleotide metabolites. Method: Saliva was collected with swabs from babies; at full-term 1-4 days, 6-weeks, 6-months and 12-months. Unstimulated fasting (morning) saliva samples were collected directly from 77 adults. Breast milk was collected from 24 new mothers. Saliva was extracted from swabs and ultra-filtered. Nucleotide metabolites were analyzed by RP-HPLC with UV-photodiode array and ESI-MS/MS. XO activity was measured as peroxide production from hypoxanthine. Bacterial inhibition over time was assessed using CFU/mL or OD. Results: Median concentrations (μmol/L) of salivary nucleobases and nucleosides for neonates/6-weeks/6-months/12-months/adult respectively were: uracil 5.3/0.8/1.4/0.7/0.8, hypoxanthine 27/7.0/1.1/0.8/2.0, xanthine 19/7.0/2.0/2.0/2.0, adenosine 12/7.0/0.9/0.8/0.1, inosine 11/5.0/0.3/0.4/0.2, guanosine 7.0/6.0/0.5/0.4/0.1, uridine 12/0.8/0.3/0.9/0.4. Deoxynucleosides and dihydropyrimidines concentrations were essentially negligible. XO activity (Vmax:mean ± SD) in breast milk was 8.9 ± 6.2 μmol/min/L and endogenous peroxide was 27 ± 12 μmol/L; mixing breast milk with neonate saliva generated ~40 μmol/L peroxide,which inhibited Staphylococcus aureus. Conclusions: Salivary metabolites, particularly xanthine/hypoxanthine, are high in neonates, transitioning to low adult levels between 6-weeks to 6-months (p < 0.001). Peroxide occurs in breast milk and is boosted during suckling as an antibacterial system.

Quality evaluation of Yin Chen Hao Tang extract based on fingerprint chromatogram and simultaneous determination of five bioactive constituents

A completely validated method based on HPLC coupled with photodiode array detector (HPLC-UV) was described for evaluating and controlling quality of Yin Chen Hao Tang extract (YCHTE). First, HPLC-UV fingerprint chromatogram of YCHTE was established for preliminarily elucidating amount and chromatographic trajectory of chemical constituents in YCHTE. Second, for the first time, five mainly bioactive constituents in YCHTE were simultaneously determined based on fingerprint chromatogram for furthermore controlling the quality of YCHTE quantitatively. The developed method was applied to analyze 12 batches of YCHTE samples which consisted of herbal drugs from different places of production, showed acceptable linearity, intraday (RSD <5%), interday precision (RSD <4.80%), and accuracy (RSD <2.80%). As a result, fingerprint chromatogram determined 15 representative general fingerprint peaks, and the fingerprint chromatogram resemblances are all better than 0.9996. The contents of five analytes in different batches of YCHTE samples do not indicate significant difference. So, it is concluded that the developed HPLC-UV method is a more fully validated and complete method for evaluating and controlling the quality of YCHTE.

Defect-selective photothermal imaging: a sensitive tool for damage mapping in optical coatings

A defect-selective photothermal imaging system for the diagnostics of optical coatings is demonstrated. The instrument has been optimized for pump and probe parameters, detector performance, and signal processing algorithm. The imager is capable of mapping purely optical or thermal defects efficiently in coatings of low damage threshold and low absorbance. Detailed mapping of minor inhomogeneities at low pump power has been achieved through the simultaneous action of a low-noise fiber optic photothermal beam defection sensor and a common-mode-rejection demodulation (CMRD) technique. The linearity and sensitivity of the sensor have been examined theoretically and experimentally, and the signal to noise ratio improvement factor is found to be about 110 compared to a conventional bicell photodiode. The scanner is so designed that mapping of static or shock sensitive samples is possible. In the case of a sample with absolute absorptance of 3.8 x 10(-4), a change in absorptance of about 0.005 x 10(-4) has been detected without ambiguity, ensuring a contrast parameter of 760. This is about 1085% improvement over the conventional approach containing a bicell photodiode, at the same pump power. The merits of the system have been demonstrated by mapping two intentionally created damage sites in a MgF2 coating on fused silica at different excitation powers. Amplitude and phase maps were recorded for thermally thin and thick cases, and the results are compared to demonstrate a case which, in conventional imaging, would lead to a deceptive conclusion regarding the type and location of the damage. Also, a residual damage profile created by long term irradiation with high pump power density has been depicted.

The atmospheric extinction of light

An experiment is described that enables students to understand the properties of atmospheric extinction due to Rayleigh scattering. The experiment requires the use of red, green and blue lasers attached to a traveling microscope or similar device. The laser beams are passed through an artificial atmosphere, made from milky water, at varying depths, before impinging on either a light meter or a photodiode integral to a Picotech Dr. DAQ ADC. A plot of measured spectral intensity verses depth reveals the contribution Rayleigh scattering has to the extinction coefficient. For the experiment with the light meter, the extinction coefficient for red, green and blue light in the milky sample of water were 0.27, 0.36 and 0.47 cm-1 respectively and 0.032, 0.037 and 0.092 cm-1 for the Picotech Dr. DAQ ADC.
