However, this strategy leads to an escalating size of the calibration dataset, and the low ratio of new samples renders the model update process inefficient. To enhance update efficiency, a size-stable updating strategy is presented which involves the simultaneous addition of new samples and removal of old samples. This is achieved by utilizing the new set as a basis for identifying and deleting significantly different old labeled samples. To improve labeling efficiency, a batch mode update is employed. Initially, calibration samples are clustered to yield multiple clusters with comparable sizes to the new update set. Subsequently, differences between multiple old sample clusters and the new set are calculated. The old sample cluster that most different are removed, accompanied by the addition of the new sample set to maintain calibration set size stability.

However, the precise antioxidant action mechanism of phenolic compounds is still not well defined. It is evident that understanding the molecular mechanisms behind polyphenol-lipid interactions is necessary to comprehend this impact. The objective of this work is to examine the effect of phenolic compound coumarin on the physicochemical properties of cell membrane models. To accomplish this goal, model membranes made up of zwitterionic dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and anionic dimyristoylphosphatidylglycerol (DMPG) lipids were used. These lipid species are the main component of the mammalian and gram-positive bacteria membranes, respectively. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Raman spectroscopy were applied for studying the interaction of coumarin with DMPC and DMPG. From the DSC results, it was found that pretransition was abolished for both lipid systems at 20 mol% coumarin. Main phase transition shifted to lower temperatures and broadened, but there was not a complete disappearance of main transition and coumarin was not fully miscible. A sharp peak at a higher temperature and a broad shoulder at a lower temperature of the main transition of DMPC were detected when compared to coumarin/DMPG binary system. A reduction in calorimetric enthalpy and entropy values of coumarin/DMPC system at 20 mol% was observed whereas an increase in these calorimetric parameters for coumarin/DMPG system occurred. Thus, the disorder was caused when 20 mol% coumarin interacts with DMPC lipid bilayers. The increase in enthalpy could be a result of the 20 mol% coumarin interactions with DMPG lipid bilayers or a possible generated partial interdigitation. From the Raman results, the peak height Raman intensity ratio I<sub>1090</sub>/I<sub>1130</sub> showed that coumarin induces disorder in the DMPG bilayers in the gel phase due to the increasing <em>gauche:trans</em> ratio. According to the results obtained by DSC and Raman spectroscopy, it was found that coumarin has a varied effect on membranes made from lipids with choline and glycerol head groups. Thus, it is obvious that the polyphenol/membrane interactions can be significantly impacted by the lipids’ structural variations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":23656,"journal":{"name":"Vibrational Spectroscopy","volume":"133 ","pages":"Article 103712"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141485092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
