Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biology, and specifically relates to the application of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde from cardamom in antibacterial properties. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of modern medicine, antibiotics, as a powerful weapon in treating bacterial infections, have greatly improved the cure rate of diseases and the survival rate of patients. However, the inappropriate use of antibiotics, especially the abuse, has led to the rapid emergence and spread of bacterial resistance.
[0003] Antibiotic abuse refers to the indiscriminate, excessive, and prolonged use of antibiotics without clear indications of bacterial infection or without bacterial culture and drug sensitivity testing. This practice not only fails to effectively treat disease but also creates a breeding ground for bacterial resistance. Over time, bacteria that were originally sensitive to antibiotics are gradually replaced by drug-resistant bacteria, forming a so-called "drug-resistant bacterial reservoir." When these drug-resistant bacteria cause infections, previously effective antibiotics become ineffective, greatly increasing the difficulty of treatment. Patients may need to receive higher doses and broader-spectrum antibiotics, or even face the prospect of having no effective treatment available.
[0004] In the search for new ways to address the challenge of bacterial resistance, natural plant components have shown enormous application potential, becoming an important source for the development of new antibiotics. Over millions of years of evolution, plants in nature have developed rich defense mechanisms to resist microbial invasion, and these mechanisms contain a variety of compounds with antibacterial activity. Among them, cardamom contains several antibacterial active components, mainly including pinenes and cardamom ketones. Cardamom extract has broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, showing significant inhibitory effects against common pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Current research on the antibacterial active components of cardamom largely focuses on pinenes, terpenes, and diphenylheptanes.
[0005] Current research indicates that cardamom possesses a variety of potential functionalities. Therefore, further research and innovation can be conducted to explore its wider application in animal feed and develop more competitive products. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art and to provide the application of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde in the preparation of antibacterial products.
[0007] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0008] Application of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde in the preparation of antibacterial products.
[0009] The bacteria are bacteria; including at least one of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Ralstonia solanacearum; more preferably at least one of Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Ralstonia solanacearum ATCC 11696.
[0010] The products mentioned include medicines, such as medicines for treating bacterial infections.
[0011] The 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde can be isolated from cardamom or obtained through conventional commercial purchase; the method for separating 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde from cardamom is as follows:
[0012] (1) Ethyl acetate extraction
[0013] The seed coat and kernel of Amomum villosum were separated. The kernel was then ground into powder, sieved, and then fully soaked and extracted with ethyl acetate. The powder was then filtered and concentrated to obtain ethyl acetate extract of Amomum villosum kernel.
[0014] (2) Separation and purification
[0015] The ethyl acetate extract of Amomum villosum seed obtained in step (1) was stirred evenly with 100-mesh silica gel powder. At the same time, 300-400-mesh silica gel powder was stirred and mixed with n-pentane and wet-coated onto a column. The column was continuously flushed with n-pentane until the silica gel was compacted. Then, gradient elution was used: n-pentane: ethyl acetate = 100:0, 100:10, 100:20, 100:30, 100:40, 100:60, 100:80, 100:100; ethyl acetate: n-pentane = 100:100, 100:50, 100:0. 500 mL of each gradient was collected as a fraction. All fractions were then spotted by TLC. Fractions with the same characteristics were combined. Finally, the combined fraction and 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde standard were verified by TLC to obtain 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde.
[0016] The sieving process described in step (1) is preferably sieved through a 60-mesh sieve.
[0017] The ratio of the powder to ethyl acetate in step (1) is 1g:2-4ml; preferably 1g:2ml.
[0018] The soaking time in step (1) is 2 to 4 days; preferably 3 days. During the soaking period, the seeds are shaken once every 8 hours to ensure that the ethyl acetate is in full contact with the cardamom seeds.
[0019] The ethyl acetate extraction in step (1) is preferably performed at least twice.
[0020] The concentration described in step (1) is carried out by rotary evaporation.
[0021] The rotary evaporation concentration temperature is 40–45°C; preferably 40°C.
[0022] The mass ratio of the ethyl acetate extract of cardamom seed kernels to 100-mesh silica gel in step (2) is 1:1 to 1.05; preferably 1:1.03.
[0023] The method for separating 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde from cardamom includes, after step (2), a further step of identification using GC-MS.
[0024] The present invention has the following advantages and effects compared with the prior art:
[0025] 1. This invention uses organic solvent (ethyl acetate) extraction to separate and purify a natural component, 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde, from the kernel of Amomum villosum. This component has certain antibacterial activity and can significantly inhibit the growth and proliferation of bacteria (such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Ralstonia solanacearum).
[0026] 2. The present invention further uses commercially available 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde to verify its antibacterial activity, and found that 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde can indeed effectively inhibit bacteria, providing an effective way to treat bacterial infections.
[0027] 3. In view of the current prominent problem of bacterial resistance, the discovery of the antibacterial activity of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde can serve as a new natural antibiotic to combat the problem of bacterial resistance. Attached Figure Description

[0038] The Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, and Ralstonia solanacearum ATCC 11696 involved in the embodiments of this invention were all purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC).
[0039] The components and formulations of the culture medium involved in the embodiments of the present invention are as follows:
[0040] ① Components and proportions of LB medium: 10 g / L peptone, 5 g / L yeast extract, 10 g / L sodium chloride, 1 g / L glucose, adjust pH to 7.0, autoclave at 121℃ for 20 min.
[0041] ② Components and proportions of CAMHB medium: 3 g / L beef extract powder, 17.5 g / L acid-hydrolyzed casein, 1.5 g / L soluble starch, 0.05 g / L calcium chloride, pH adjusted to 7.0, autoclaved at 121℃ for 20 min.

[0043] The cardamom involved in this embodiment of the invention is a high-quality cardamom selected from Lushui City, Nujiang Prefecture, Yunnan Province.
[0044] The organic solvents involved in the embodiments of this invention are specifically analytical grade methanol, ethanol, and ethyl acetate.
[0045] Example 1: Initial antibacterial screening of cardamom
[0046] The initial antibacterial screening method for cardamom includes the following steps:
[0047] 1. Activation and culture of the strain
[0048] Glycerol tubes containing Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), and Ralstonia solanacearum (ATCC 11696) were taken from a -80℃ freezer and streaked onto LB agar plates. Single colonies were picked and placed in Erlenmeyer flasks containing LB liquid medium and incubated at 28℃–40℃ (preferably 37℃) with shaking at 180 rpm for 24 h for activation. Results are as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown.
[0049] 2. Preparation of Amomum tsao-ko extract
[0050] (1) Extraction of active ingredients from Amomum tsao-ko: Amomum tsao-ko was pulverized into powder using a pulverizer, and the obtained powder was sieved through a 60-mesh sieve to obtain fine powder. 200g of the fine powder was weighed and soaked in organic solvents (methanol, ethanol, ethyl acetate) at a material-to-liquid ratio of 1g:10-20ml. Under room temperature conditions, ultrasonic extraction (ultrasonic power 240W, ultrasonic frequency 40KHZ) was performed, followed by standing for 1h. A second ultrasonic extraction (ultrasonic power 240W, ultrasonic frequency 40KHZ) was then performed, and finally, the mixture was allowed to stand for 24h to obtain the first extract. Then, the above operation (repeating the steps of adding organic solvent and ultrasonic extraction) was repeated to obtain the second extract, and the two extracts were combined.
[0051] (2) Preparation of crude extract of Amomum villosum: The extract obtained in step (1) was filtered using a Buchner funnel and a circulating water vacuum pump to remove excess residue and obtain a pure extract. The solvent was removed by rotary evaporation (45°C) and the extract was concentrated to obtain the corresponding methanol extract, ethanol extract and ethyl acetate extract.
[0052] 3. Antibacterial activity of crude extract of cardamom
[0053] (1) Count the three types of bacterial cultures prepared above, and adjust the bacterial culture to 1×10⁻⁶. 8 CFU / mL, then serially diluted to 5.5 × 10⁻⁶. 5 CFU / mL. The MIC experiment was performed using the checkerboard method, with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a suspending agent. The volume ratio of DMSO to the culture medium was 10 / 1000 to avoid the influence of DMSO on the antibacterial experiment results. The extracts of cardamom in methanol, ethanol, and ethyl acetate were dissolved to prepare solutions with a concentration of 10 mg / mL.
[0054] (2) Take 50 μL of sterile CAMHB medium and place it in each well. Also add 50 μL of the above-prepared solution to the wells in the first column of the 96-well plate. Dilute the solution by serial dilution up to the wells in the 10th column. Use gentamicin sulfate as a positive control in the 11th column and sterile CAMHB medium as a negative control in the 12th column.
[0055] (3) The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was initially determined based on the absence of bacterial plaques larger than 2 mm at the bottom of the 96-well plate and the absence of turbidity in the solution within the wells. Then, 50 μL of the liquid from each well was aspirated and spread onto a TSA plate. The plate with no sterile growth was considered the minimum bactericidal concentration. The experiment was repeated three times. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0056] Table 1. Minimum inhibitory concentrations of cardamom extract against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Ralstonia solanacearum.
[0057]
[0058] Example 2: GC-MS analysis and identification of cardamom components
[0059] The analytical method for the components of cardamom includes the following steps:
[0060] 1. Pretreatment of cardamom for GC-MS testing
[0061] Weigh 0.5 g of the crude extract of acetic acid ethyl ester obtained in Example 1 using a 0.1 g balance, add 5 mL of dichloromethane (containing 5 ppm internal standard: ethyl decanoate), and extract by sonication for 30 min. Then let it stand for 1 h, and perform a second sonication for 30 min. Add 5 mg of anhydrous sodium sulfate, and place in a refrigerator at 4 °C overnight for later use.
[0062] 2. GC-MS testing of cardamom components
[0063] After the above pretreatment, carefully aspirate the supernatant with a syringe, filter the supernatant through a 0.22μm hydrophobic filter membrane, and place the filtered sample in a brown chromatographic bottle containing 2ml of solvent, ensuring that the volume of the sample to be tested in each chromatographic bottle is more than 1ml.
[0064] GC-MS: SHIMADZU GCMS-TQ8040, instrument specifications: triple quadrupole, column: Agilent DB-5MS gas chromatographic column (30m×0.25mm×0.25μm), injection port temperature 250℃, detector temperature 260℃, initial temperature 60℃ held for 2 min, then increased to 260℃ / min at 6℃ / min and held for 15 min. Injection volume: 1μL, split ratio 3:1; MS conditions: EI ion source, ionization energy 70ev, scan range m / z 50~600amu, ion source temperature 200℃, GC-MS interface temperature 250℃;
[0065] After the measurements were completed, a test file of the components of the crude extract of Amomum tsao-ko was obtained. The test file was then calibrated, purified, and discarded using MSDIAL software before identification and analysis. Components with a matching rate of over 80% and a retention index difference within ±10 were retained. Cluster heatmap analysis was performed on the identified components to screen out the components with the strongest antibacterial activity found in high concentrations in the ethyl acetate extract of Amomum tsao-ko, primarily 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde, such as... Figure 4 As shown.
[0066] 3,2,3-Dihydro-1H-indene-4-formaldehyde test
[0067] The same GC-MS method described above was used for determination. The test files of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde and the GC-MS test files of the crude extract of *Amomum tsao-ko* were calibrated, purified, and removed using MSDIAL software before identification and analysis. The relative content of each component was calculated based on the peak area and internal standard peak area, and fingerprint spectra were plotted. The presence of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde in *Amomum tsao-ko* was compared and analyzed. The results are as follows: Figure 5 As shown.
[0068] Example 3: Separation of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde from Amomum villosum var. mongolicum
[0069] 1. Ethyl acetate extraction
[0070] The seed coat and kernel of Amomum tsao-ko were separated, yielding a total of 2400g of kernels. The kernels were ground into powder and sieved through a 60-mesh sieve to obtain a fine powder. Then, 4800mL of ethyl acetate was added at a ratio of 1g:2ml. The mixture was soaked for 3 days, shaking every 8 hours during the soaking period to ensure that the ethyl acetate was fully in contact with the Amomum tsao-ko kernels.
[0071] The extract was filtered through a Buchner funnel to obtain a pure extract. The extract was then concentrated by rotary evaporation at 40°C. The recovered ethyl acetate was poured back into the container containing the cardamom kernels for a second extraction. Finally, 113.94 g of ethyl acetate extract of cardamom kernels was obtained.
[0072] 2. Silica gel column separation
[0073] The obtained 113.94g of ethyl acetate extract of Amomum villosum seed was added to 110g of 100-mesh silica gel powder at a ratio of approximately 1:1 (mass ratio) and stirred until homogeneous. 900g of 300-400-mesh silica gel powder was weighed and mixed with n-pentane. The mixture was then loaded onto a column using a wet method, continuously flushing the column with n-pentane until the silica gel was compacted. Elution gradients were set as follows: n-pentane:ethyl acetate = 100:0, 100:10, 100:20, 100:30, 100:40, 100:60, 100:80, 100:100; ethyl acetate:n-pentane = 100:100, 100:50, 100:0 (all volume ratios). 500mL of each gradient was collected as a fraction. All fractions were spotted onto a TLC plate, and fractions with similar characteristics were combined. Finally, the combined fractions and the standard of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde (purchased from Shanghai Maclean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.) were verified by TLC spot test. The results are as follows: Figure 6 As shown (n-pentane: ethyl acetate = 100: 60).
[0074] 3. GC-MS identification
[0075] Fractions with TLC spotting results identical to those of the standard were identified by GC-MS, and the name and structure of the compound were determined according to the Nist database. The specific method is as follows:
[0076] GC-MS: SHIMADZU GCMS-TQ8040, instrument specifications: triple quadrupole, column: Agilent DB-5MS gas chromatographic column (30m × 0.25mm × 0.25μm), injection port temperature 250℃, detector temperature 260℃, initial temperature 60℃ held for 2 min, then increased to 260℃ / min at 6℃ / min and held for 15 min. Injection volume: 1μL, split ratio 3:1; MS conditions: EI ion source, ionization energy 70ev, scan range m / z 50~600amu, ion source temperature 200℃, GC-MS interface temperature 250℃.
[0077] The obtained 100:60 gradient fraction test files were calibrated, purified, and discarded using MSDIAL software before identification and analysis. The samples were then imported into the NIST 14 database. By comparing linear retention indices, components with a retention match rate of over 80% and retention indices within ±10 were identified. Figure 7 The fraction was identified as 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde (Formula I).
[0078]
[0079] 4. Verification of antibacterial effect
[0080] Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538) was streaked onto LB agar plates after being removed from a -80℃ freezer. Single colonies were picked and placed in Erlenmeyer flasks containing CAMHB liquid medium and incubated at 28℃–40℃ with shaking at 180 rpm for 24 hours for activation. The cultured bacterial suspensions were then counted, and the bacterial concentration was adjusted to 1×10⁻⁶. 8 CFU / mL, then serially diluted to 5.5 × 10⁻⁶. 5 CFU / mL. Spread the diluted bacterial suspension evenly onto a TSA plate using a cotton swab. Place drug sensitivity test strips soaked in different concentrations of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-formaldehyde solution onto the plate and incubate at 37°C for 24 hours. Observe the size of the inhibition zone.
[0081] The results showed that the inhibition zone size was 21.5 mm when the concentration of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde was 2.5 mg / mL; the inhibition zone size was 20.2 mm when the concentration of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde was 1.25 mg / mL, and no inhibition zone was observed below these concentrations. This indicates that the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde is 1.25 mg / mL. Figure 8 ).
[0082] Example 4: Antibacterial activity of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde
[0083] The method for evaluating the antibacterial activity of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde includes the following steps:
[0084] 1. Activation and culture of bacterial strains
[0085] Take the glycerol tubes of Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538) from the -80℃ freezer and streak them onto LB agar plates. Pick a single colony and place it in an Erlenmeyer flask containing LB liquid medium. Incubate at 28℃~40℃ with shaking at 180 rpm for 24 h to activate the colony.
[0086] 2. Adjust the concentration of the bacterial solution to be tested.
[0087] Count the cultured bacteria separately and adjust the bacterial concentration to 1×10⁻⁶. 8 CFU / mL, then serially diluted to 5.5 × 10⁻⁶. 5 CFU / mL, for later use.
[0088] Preliminary screening of antibacterial activity of 3,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde
[0089] (1) Weigh 2 mg of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxaldehyde (purchased from Shanghai Maclean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.), dissolve it in 1 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to prepare a solution with a concentration of 2 mg / mL, and set aside. Prepare CAMHB liquid medium and TSA solid medium, and set aside.
[0090] (2) Place 50 μL of sterile CAMHB liquid culture medium into each well. Also add 50 μL of the prepared solution to the wells in column 1 of a 96-well plate. Dilute using a two-fold serial dilution method up to the wells in column 10. Column 11 uses gentamicin sulfate as a positive control; column 12 uses sterile CAMHB liquid culture medium as a negative control. Results are as follows: Figure 9 As shown.
[0091] (3) The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was initially determined based on the absence of bacterial plaques larger than 2 mm at the bottom of the 96-well plate and the absence of turbidity in the solution within the wells. Then, 50 μL of the liquid from each well was aspirated and spread onto a TSA plate. The plate with no sterile growth was considered the minimum bactericidal concentration. The experiment was repeated three times. The results are shown in Table 2.
