Ferimzone and tricyclazole, common fungicides for rice blast control, can be found in high concentrations in rice straw after unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) spraying, potentially affecting livestock and human health through pesticide residues. In this study, an optimized method for the analysis of the two fungicides in rice straw was developed using the improved QuEChERS method. After the optimization of water and solvent volume, extraction conditions including ethyl acetate (EtOAc), acetonitrile (MeCN), a mixed solvent, and MeCN containing 1% acetic acid were compared. Different salts, including unbuffered sodium chloride, citrate, and acetate buffer salts, were compared for partitioning. Among the preparation methods, the MeCN/EtOAc mixture with unbuffered salts showed the highest recovery rates (88.1-97.9%, RSD ≤ 5.1%). To address the severe matrix effect (%ME) of rice straw, which is characterized by low moisture content and cellulose-based complex matrices, samples were purified using 25 mg each of primary-secondary amine (PSA) and octadecylsilane (C<sub>18</sub>), without pesticide loss. The developed method was validated with a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.005 mg/kg for target pesticides, and recovery rates at levels of 0.01, 0.1, and 2 mg/kg met the permissible range (82.3-98.9%, RSD ≤ 8.3%). The %ME ranged from -17.6% to -0.3%, indicating a negligible effect. This optimized method was subsequently applied to residue studies following multi-rotor spraying.

In this work, the effect of technological processes on the antioxidant capacity (AC) and total phenolic content (TPC) in the black cumin oils obtained by cold pressing and solvent extraction, as well as the by-products, were evaluated. The AC values of black cumin seeds (BCS), cold-pressed black cumin oil (BCCPO), black cumin oil extracted from seeds (BCEO-S), black cumin oil extracted from cake (BCEO-C), black cumin cake (BCC), and black cumin meal (BCM) were determined by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) assays, whereas TPC in these samples was analyzed by the Folin-Ciocalteu (FC) method. Two applied conventional oil extraction methods, screw pressing and solvent extraction, significantly affected the AC and TPC in the obtained black cumin oils and by-products. The solvent-extracted black cumin oils revealed higher antioxidant properties (DPPH = 4041-16,500 μmol TE/100 g, CUPRAC = 1275-4827 μmol TE/100 g) than the cold-pressed black cumin oil (DPPH = 3451 μmol TE/100 g and CUPRAC = 3475 μmol TE/100 g).

The common and characteristic flavor compounds and common and characteristic non-volatile components of different strains of fermented Douchi were explored through GC×GC-TOFMS and UPLC-Q-TOFMS omics analysis. The result suggested that Pyrazines, ketones, and alkenes such as tetramethyl-pyrazine, 2,5-dimethyl pyrazine, furaneol, 2,3-butanedione, gamma-terpinene might contribute to the basic flavor of the Douchi fermented by <i>A. niger</i>, <i>R. arrhizus</i>, and <i>B. circulans</i>.

The common metabolic pathways involved in the fermentation were isoflavonoid biosynthesis, flavonoid biosynthesis, etc. Ketones and esters such as 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one, 3-octanone, 5-methylfurfural and nonanal contributed to the unique flavor, while betaine, oleanolic acid, saikosaponin D and leucine might contribute to the unique function of <i>A. niger</i> fermented Douchi.

The unique flavor of <i>B. circulans</i> fermented Douchi might derived from ketones and esters such as 3-acetyl-2-butanone, 2-tridecanone, propionic acid-2-phenylethyl ester, while vitexin, astragalin, and phenethylamine might contribute to the unique function.
