Biosynthesis, behavior and fate of volatile organic sulfide in Lentinus edodes (Berk.) upon hot-air drying treatment

Jiapei Xi et al.

Summary: This study investigated the biosynthesis and changes of organic sulfide in shiitake mushrooms during hot-air drying. The study monitored aw, moisture migration, taste and flavor profiles, organic sulfide content, and enzyme activities during three drying procedures (CT/ST1/ST2). The results showed that drying rate was influenced by moisture migration. Key enzymes involved in the process were heat-resistant proteases, except for C-Dase which had low thermal stability. A total of 17 organic sulfides were identified, with 6 cyclic polysulfides formed by C-Dase desulfurization and 5 thioethers generated through thermal cleavage and Maillard reaction. ST2 drying procedures positively influenced the formation of cyclic polysulfides and the development of premium flavor qualities.

Effects of different drying treatments on the microstructure, free amino acids, volatile compounds and antioxidant activity of Flammulina velutipes root

Mengxue Sun et al.

Summary: The effects of different drying treatments on the microstructure, flavor- and health-related compounds of F. velutipes root were investigated. The results showed that vacuum-freeze drying had the least impact on the microstructure and had the highest content of volatile compounds. Microwave-vacuum drying gave the highest contents of umami amino acids, total phenolics and total flavonoids, and exhibited high antioxidant activity.

Current understanding of hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] neurotoxicity and new perspectives

John P. Jr Jr Wise et al.

Summary: Hexavalent chromium is a global environmental pollutant that is increasingly being recognized as a neurotoxicant. Studies have shown that mitotic cells in the brain play crucial roles in overall brain and body health, and hexavalent chromium may have subtle deleterious effects on the brain.

Toxic elements and trace elements in Macrolepiota procera mushrooms from southern Spain and northern Morocco

Marta Barea-Sepulveda et al.

Summary: Wild edible mushroom Macrolepiota procera is an efficient accumulator for trace elements and toxic elements, with higher content in the cap than in the stipe, especially for copper and zinc. There is no significant difference in metal and metalloid content between different geographical areas. Concerns about health risks are raised due to frequent consumption of this mushroom, particularly in relation to chromium, cadmium, arsenic, and mercury.

Nickel oral bioavailability in contaminated soils using a mouse urinary excretion bioassay: Variation with bioaccessibility

Jia-Hui Liang et al.

Summary: The bioavailability of nickel in contaminated soils is predominantly controlled by its solubility in the gastrointestinal tract, while soil properties and co-contamination of other metals have a weak influence. Simple and cost-effective bioaccessibility assays can predict site-specific oral bioavailability of nickel.

Effects of Se(IV) or Se(VI) enrichment on proteins and protein-bound Se distribution and Se bioaccessibility in oyster mushrooms

Aline Pereira de Oliveira et al.

Summary: This study investigates the potential of Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus djamor mushrooms to absorb and accumulate selenium in organic substrate. The results show that Pleurotus djamor grown on Se(IV)-supplemented substrate has the greatest potential for selenium uptake and accumulation. Various selenium species, including selenomethionine, selenocystine, and Se-methylselenocysteine, were identified in the mushrooms. In vitro digestion assays showed high bioaccessibility of selenium. The bioaccessible selenium species were found to be mainly associated with low molecular weight proteins in the mushrooms.

Nickel bioaccessibility in soils with high geochemical background and anthropogenic contamination

Song Ding et al.

Summary: The study compared the bioaccessibility of nickel in geochemical background soils and anthropogenic contaminated soils. It found that the bioaccessibility of nickel was lower in geochemical background soils, which may be related to the higher residual fractionation of nickel in these soils. In addition, the exchangeable nickel and organic carbon content in soils were found to be related to the bioaccessibility of nickel.

Short-term responses of soil nutrients, heavy metals and microbial community to partial substitution of chemical fertilizer with spent mushroom substrates (SMS)

Ludan Chen et al.

Summary: The study shows that partially replacing chemical fertilizers with spent mushroom substrates can improve soil nutrients (especially Auricularia auricula substrates) and reduce heavy metal contamination (especially Enoki mushroom substrates). This also leads to an improvement in microbial diversity and community composition.

Remediation of Cr(VI)-contaminated soil using combined chemical leaching and reduction techniques based on hexavalent chromium speciation

Donghui Wang et al.

Summary: The study found that using oxalic acid and citric acid at 0.02 mol/L, with a liquid-solid ratio of 5:1 and a leaching time of 45 minutes, the removal rate of Cr(VI) was 62.7%, with residual Cr(VI) in soil at 126 mg/kg and a soil pH of 4.09 after leaching. Between 25 and 90 degrees Celsius, with a molar ratio of 25:1 of FeSO4 center dot 7 H2O to Cr(VI), the reduction rate of Cr(VI) in soil ranged from 54.0% to 98.4%, with leaching concentration of Cr(VI) in soil at 0.01-0.29 mg/L. The most cost-effective reduction occurred at 90 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes, resulting in only 2.7 mg/kg of residual Cr(VI) in soil.

Heavy metals content in edible mushrooms: A systematic review, meta-analysis and health risk assessment

Mohsen Dowlati et al.

Summary: A systematic review and meta-analysis conducted on the concentration of toxic heavy metals in edible mushrooms revealed that iron, zinc, and copper were the main heavy metals found. Different parts of edible mushrooms show varying levels of heavy metal accumulation, which could pose significant non-carcinogenic risks to consumers in some countries.

Bioaccessibility and health risk of neonicotinoids in apple and pear samples as affected by in vitro digestion

Jia-Yu Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the influence of chromium speciation on neonicotinoids bioaccessibility and evaluated the potential health risks based on oral bioaccessibility. The bioaccessibility of neonicotinoids in apple and pear varied between different in vitro methods, and the addition of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) significantly reduced the bioaccessibility of neonicotinoids. Risk assessment based on bioaccessibility revealed that exposure to pesticide residues in the tested fruits were all below levels that might pose a health risk.

Total and bioaccessible heavy metals in cabbage from major producing cities in Southwest China: health risk assessment and cytotoxicity

Mengying Li et al.

Summary: Green leafy vegetables, such as cabbage, may contain heavy metals like As, Cd, Pb and Cr. While the levels of As, Cd and Pb were within limits set by Chinese National Standards and WHO/FAO, Cr exceeded the limit significantly. The bioaccessibility of Cd, Pb and Cr was found to be much higher than that of As, with only Cr showing potentially risky Estimated Daily Intake levels in cabbage. Further assessment using gastrointestinal cell responses suggested that existing models may overestimate human health risks associated with heavy metal exposure through cabbage consumption.
