Ülevaade
Uurimisrühma kompetentsi kuulub kaasaegsete analüüsimeetodite arendamine ja rakendamine ühiskonna oluliste probleemide lahendamiseks (keelatud kemikaalide tuvastamine, toidu- ja keskkonnaohutus, bioakiivsed ained toiduainetes ja ravimtaimedes, mikro- ja makroelemendid toidus, mullas jt looduslikes objektides) kasutades tipptasemel analüüsiseadmeid nagu gaas- ja vedelikkromatograafia, massispektromeetria, spektroskoopia, kapillaarelektroforees jne. Kesksel kohal on uudsete ekstraktsioonimeetodite arendamine (nt SPE, SPME, LPME) kasutades klassikaliste solventide kõrval ka keskkonnasõbralikke lahusteid nagu ülekriitilises olekus fluidumid, süvaeutektilised segud ja ioonsed vedelikud. Seejuures on fookuses rohelise analüütilise keemia põhiprintsiipide järgimine.Olulisel kohal on ka taimedes sisalduvate fütokemikaalide uurimine, sealhulgas nende isoleerimine ja antioksüdantse, antibakteriaalse ning vähivastase toime hindamine. Eesmärk on saada Eesti ravimtaimedest uusi juhtühendeid nii multiresistentsete bakterite, mis on kaasajal kujunenud ülemaailmselt suureks terviseohuks kui ka parasvöötme kliimas asuvates riikides leviva kroonilise puukborrelioosi vastu. Rühmas on välja arendatud erinevaid modifitseeritud (poorseid) materjale – aerogeele, mida kasutatakse põhiliselt adsorbentidena, katalüsaatoritena elektrokeemias ja veepuhastuses ning ka ravimikandjatena.

Tähtsamad tulemused
2024. aastal uuriti kahe teelehe liigi (Plantago major ja Plantago lanceolata) fütokeemilist koostist, antioksüdantset potentsiaali ja spetsiifilist antibakteriaalset toimet B. burgdorferi bakterile nii selle kasvu staadiumis, kus rakkude arv enam ei suurene ( statsionaarne faas), kui ka selle biokile suhtes. Leiti, et mõlemad taimed sisaldavad suures koguses nii mittelenduvaid (akteosiid, plantamajosiid) kui ka lenduvaid (β-karüofüleen, D-limoneen, α-karüofüleen) antioksüdatiivsete omadustega ühendeid. Spetsiifilised testid näitasid, et mõlema taime ekstraktid vähendasid oluliselt (p≤ 0.002) B. burgdorferi bakterite elujõulisust statsionaarses faasis (jääk elujõulisus oli vaid 15% kontrollrühmast). Samuti pärssisid need ekstraktid märkimisväärselt (30%) bakterikile moodustumist. Kuna bakterite elujõulisuse vähenemine statsionaarses faasis ja biokile moodustumise pärssimine toimub erinevate mehhanismide kaudu (nt membraani kahjustus, valkude denaturatsioon), on huvitav, et nii P. majori kui ka P. lanceolata lehtede ekstraktid avaldasid mõlemat toimet. Edaspidi tuleks täpsemalt uurida toimemehhanisme ja võimalikke sünergilisi efekte erinevate ühendite vahel.
