AbstractSeaweeds have a long history as a resource for polysaccharides/hydrocolloids extraction for use in the food industry due to their functionality as stabilizing agents. In addition to the carbohydrate content, seaweeds also contains a significant amount of protein, which may find application in food and feed. Here, we present a novel combination of transcriptomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics to determine the protein composition in two pilot-scale extracts from Eucheuma denticilatum (Spinosum) obtained via hot-water extraction. The extracts were characterized by qualitative and quantitative proteomics using LC-MS/MS and a de-novo transcriptome assembly for construction of a novel proteome. Using label-free, relative quantification, we were able to identify the most abundant proteins in the extracts and determined that the majority of quantified protein in the extracts (>75%) is constituted by merely three previously uncharacterized proteins. Putative subcellular localization for the quantified proteins was determined by bioinformatic prediction, and by correlating with the expected copy number from the transcriptome analysis, we determined that the extracts were highly enriched in extracellular proteins. This implies that the method predominantly extracts extracellular proteins, and thus appear ineffective for cellular disruption and subsequent release of intracellular proteins. Ultimately, this study highlight the power of quantitative proteomics as a novel tool for characterization of alternative protein sources intended for use in foods. Additionally, the study showcases the potential of proteomics for evaluation of protein extraction methods and as powerful tool in the development of an efficient extraction process.

The Hot Water Percolation (HWP) technique for preparing soil extracts has several advantages: it is easily carried out, fast, and several parameters can be measured from the same solution. The object of this study was to examine the possible use of HWP extracts for the characterization of soil organic matter. The HPLC-SEC chromatograms, UV-VIS and fluorescence properties of the HWP extracts were studied and the results were compared with those of the International Humic Substances Society (IHSS) Soil Humic Acid (HA), IHSS Soil Fulvic Acid (FA) and IHSS Suwannee Natural Organic Matter (NOM) standards as well as their HA counterparts isolated by traditional extraction methods from the original soil samples. The DOM of the HWP solution is probably a mixture of organic materials, which have some characteristics similar to the Soil FA fractions and NOM. The HWP extracted organic material can be studied and characterized using simple techniques, like UV-VIS and fluorescence spectroscopy.
