Syringolin A is a non-ribosomal virulence factor secreted by few Pseudomonas strains. Syringolin A is an well known irreversible proteasome inhibitor and antitumor compound. The present study is focused on the extraction of Syringolin A through a non-tedious and economical process. Syringolin A is extracted from culture supernatants by the immiscible organic layer by mixing of dichloromethane or chloroform (trichloromethane). Syringolin A was identified by the characteristic peak at 350 nm by UV spectra. The compound was further characterized by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) with the retention value, Rf was found to be in the range of 0.78-0.83 run using a combination of solvent systems water and methanol.  The molecular weight of the compound was found to be 492.2614 g mol-1 identified and analyzed by UHPLC–QTOF-MS analysis. Due to its significant pharmacological importance in proliferative diseases, further studies on production and optimization of these compounds are necessary.

AbstractNanofibrous dressings serve as an impeccable candidate in the management of wounds. Nanofibrous composites composed of polycaprolactone (PCL) and green tea using dual solvent systems at different ratios were fabricated through electrospinning. Pure PCL electrospun fibers along with composites were characterized by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), wettability, water uptake analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). SEM indicated that fibrous morphology and the diameter of PCL/green tea were smaller for chloroform/dimethylformamide (DMF) (601 nm) and acetone/DMF (896 nm) than the pure PCL (673 nm and 1,104 nm for chloroform/DMF and acetone/DMF, respectively). Wettability of the fabricated composites was increased, and pure PCL fibers were slightly more hydrophobic (100°) than PCL/green tea (94°). Water uptake of the composites was enhanced compared with PCL significantly in acetone/DMF. The PCL/green tea nanofibrous wound dressing with enhanced physicochemical properties serves as an indispensable candidate for wound healing applications.
