Furanocoumarins are the major phytoalexins of Ficus carica and are effective natural drug candidates for treatment of several types of cancer and skin disease. The objectives of this study were to analyze and quantify linear furanocoumarins, mainly psoralen and bergapten, in wood and bark of stems from eight Algerian varieties of fig and to establish the differences in the content of these metabolites in the eight local samples. Psoralen and bergapten contents in the stem bark and wood (in μg/g DW) varied respectively from 146.6 to 1110.3 and from 395.7 to 1671.8 for psoralen, and from 114.3 to 524.0 and from 144.2 to 718.6 for bergapten. This study fills a gap in our knowledge of furanocoumarin distribution in different parts of the fig tree. Psoralen and bergapten concentrations were higher in the wood than in the stem bark. Most of the dark fruited fig trees produce these two coumarins more than the green ones.

In the present study, Acacia saligna (Labill.) H.L.Wendl. wood blocks with dimensions of 0.5 × 1 × 2 cm were inoculated with five molds (Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, Alternaria tenuissima, Fusarium culmorum, and Trichoderma harzianum) and the changes in the organic acids (oxalic, citric, tartaric, succinic, glutaric, acetic, propionic, and butyric) of powdered wood were analyzed by HPLC. The effects of the five inoculated fungi on the alterations to the wood cell wall ultrastructures were examined by TEM. The wood became more acidic as it was inoculated with the studied fungi. From the HPLC analysis, the oxalic acid (293.34 µg/g o.d.) in the A. saligna, A. tenuissima (167.33 µg/g o.d.), and T. harzianum (245.01 µg/g o.d.) wood decreased, but it increased in the A. flavus (362.08 µg/g o.d.), A. niger (1202.53 µg/g o.d.), and F. culmorum (431.85 µg/g o.d.) inoculated wood. Citric acid was observed in the wood inoculated with A. flavus (110 µg/g o.d) and A. niger (2499.63 µg/g o.d). Tartaric (1150.98 µg/g o.d), acetic (2.04 µg/g o.d), and propionic (1.79 µg/g o.d) acids were found in the wood inoculated with A. niger. Butyric acid was found in small amounts. A loss of wood substances appeared as the electron-lucent increased in the middle lamella and the layers of the secondary wall. Within the secondary cell wall regions, checks and splits were also noted, which resulted from the effects of the acids on the carbohydrates, according to the fungus type and the acids. In conclusion, increasing the amount of organic acids in the wood samples through inoculation with fungi results in more degradations in the wood, especially in the wood inoculated with A. niger.

Phytochemical investigations of Cotinus coggygria Scop. wood, a medicinal and tinctorial plant used since antiquity, resulted in the isolation and structure elucidation of the novel C-3/C-3'' dimer of butin (3',4',7-trihydroxyflavanone) and other known compounds: gallic acid and its methyl ester; catechin; profisetinidins: fisetinidol-(4α→8)-(+)-catechin and epifisetinidol-(4β→8)-(+)-catechin; flavanonols: fustin and dihydroquercetagetin; flavanones: butin and eriodictyol; flavonols: fisetin and quercetin; the chalcone butein and the aurone sulfuretin. The isolated compounds were used for the development and validation of a HPLC-method which enables the determination of these bioactive substances in C. coggygria extracts. Separation was possible on an ether-linked phenyl column material, using as mobile phase mixtures of water, methanol, and acetonitrile with 0.02% trifluoroacetic acid. Sensitivity, selectivity, linearity, precision, accuracy, and repeatability of the method were verified and assured suitability for its intended use. LC-MS experiments performed in positive and negative electrospray ionization mode confirmed the identity of analytes and allowed unambiguous assignment of all peaks of interest. The analysis of different C. coggygria samples revealed that sulfuretin (0.38-0.69%) and fustin (0.33-0.59%) dominated, followed by dihydroquercetagetin (0.12-0.35%), a rare flavanonol derivative with a 5,6,7-trihydroxysubstituted A-ring. The new natural compound C-3/C-3'' flavanone dimer occurred in concentrations of 0.03-0.06%; the two latter compounds could represent valuable markers for the identification and quality control of C. coggygria wood.

Bamboo and wood are widely used as food contact materials (FCMs). Fungicides are often applied during the manufacture of these products to prevent mildew; thus, monitoring for fungicide residues is essential because of the possible risks to food safety. However, it is not clear whether residual fungicides in treated bamboo and wood products migrate into food to cause harm to humans, and there is an absence of procedures for these analyses. In this study, the simultaneous determination of fungicides was validated in bamboo and wood FCMs by high-performance liquid chromatography–triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC–MS/MS). The analytes were extracted with methanol or 1:1 methanol/acetonitrile and purified using 25 mg primary secondary amine adsorbent with 2.5 mg graphitized carbon black or 25 mg PSA with 25 mg octadecylsilane (C18). The recoveries for wood and bamboo FCMs were from 60.0% to 100.7% and 70.0% to 97.5%, respectively. The intra-day precision of wood and bamboo FCMs were from 0.1% to 5.3% and 0.1 to 3.0%, and the inter-day precision from 0.3% to 8.5% and 1.2% to 7.8%, respectively. The limits of detection ranged from 0.11 to 15.38 for wood and 0.25–6.19 μg kg−1 for bamboo. This method provides a reference for the determination of fungicides in bamboo and wood FCMs.

A comparative study on the acetylanon of maritime pine wood by reaction with vinyl acetate (VA) and acetic anhydride (AA) has been undertaken The reactivity of wood cellulose and lignin with regards to VA or AA was examined using different techniques The products dissolved in the reaction medium after acetylation of wood by the two different methods were analyzed by HPLC chromatography Results suggested that the cellulose sites in wood were more attacked by VA than by AA in our experimental conditions Besides the unreacted cellulose sites of the AA-acetylated sample could be further esterified by vinyl propionate which (13)C NMR signals could be differentiated from the acetyl signals The esterified materials obtained after modification of isolated cellulose and lignin were also characterized by FTIR (13)C CP-MAS NMR and (13)P NMR spectroscopy and compared Results indicated that VA could acetylate both biopolymers but they also showed that AA reacted more readily with lignin than VA Moreover FTIR spectroscopy revealed that unexpected side reactions concurrently occurred in lignin when VA was used It is hypothesized that some C-acetylation also took place between VA and a number of lignin aromatic rings during the treatment.

Organosolv lignins obtained from sugar maple bark and wood were studied as adhesives for wood particleboard production. Organosolv pulping of sugar maple wood and bark was carried out in the presence of Lewis acid FeCl3 as a catalyst. The organosolv lignins recovered from this process were investigated by determination of Klason plus acid-soluble lignin content, of sugars by HPLC analysis, and of ash content. Structural characterizations of these lignins were performed by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) and by 31P NMR. The results of the latter studies indicate that the content of free phenolic groups was more important in bark than in wood lignin. The gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analyses results suggested that the weight-average molecular mass of wood lignin was higher than that of bark lignin. The studied organosolv lignins were used for the preparation of particleboards as recovered and in combination with glyoxal or isocyanate. It was found that sugar maple bark lignin, as such or modified with isocyanate, was a more efficient adhesive than its wood counterpart. On the contrary, it was the organosolv wood lignin combined with glyoxal which was a more efficient adhesive than its bark counterpart. In combination with isocyanate, it was the sugar maple bark organosolv lignin which was determined to have the best adhesive performance of all studied lignins.
