Abstract
Biphasic release bio-composite films of the low water-soluble drug, linezolid (LNZ), were formulated using the solvent casting technique. Different polymers and plasticizers (gelatin, Tween 80, polyethylene glycol 400, and glycerol) were assessed for the preparation of bio-composite films. An I-optimal design was applied for the optimization and to study the impact of polymer concentration (X1), plasticizer concentration (X2), polymer type (X3), and plasticizer type (X4) on different LNZ-loaded bio-composite films. The film thickness, moisture content, mechanical properties, swelling index, and percentage of drug release at fixed times opted as dependent variables. Results demonstrated a significant effect of all independent variables on the drug release from the prepared bio-composite films. The plasticizer concentration significantly increased the thickness, moisture content, elongation at break, swelling index, and in vitro drug release and significantly reduced the tensile strength. The optimized LNZ-loaded bio-composite film comprised of 15% Tween 80 and 30% PEG 400 was highly swellable, elastic, acceptable tensile properties, safe, maintained a moist environment, and indicated great antimicrobial activity against both Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC® 25922) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which are common wound infectious bacteria. The present study concludes that the optimized LNZ-loaded bio-composite film was successfully designed with fast drug release kinetics and it could be regarded as a promising novel antimicrobial wound dressing formulation.

Abstract
Wound dressings for skin lesions, such as bedsores or pressure ulcers, are widely used for many patients, both during hospitalization and in subsequent treatment at home. To improve the treatment and shorten the healing time and, therefore, the cost, numerous types of wound dressings have been developed by manufacturers. Considering certain inconveniences related to the intolerance of some patients to antibiotics and the antimicrobial, antioxidant, and curative properties of certain essential oils, we conducted research by incorporating these oils, based on polyvinyl alcohol/ polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVA/PVP) biopolymers, into dressings. The objective of this study was to study the potential of a polymeric matrix for wound healing, with polyvinyl alcohol as the main material and polyvinyl pyrrolidone and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as secondary materials, together with additives (plasticizers poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and glycerol), stabilizers (Zn stearate), antioxidants (vitamin A and vitamin E), and four types of essential oils (fennel, peppermint, pine, and thyme essential oils). For all the studied samples, the combining compatibility, antimicrobial, and cytotoxicity properties were investigated. The obtained results demonstrated a uniform morphology for almost all the samples and adequate barrier properties for contact with suppurating wounds. The results show that the obtained samples containing essential oils have a good inhibitory effect on, or antimicrobial properties against, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, and Candida albicans ATCC 10231. The MTT assay showed that the tested samples were not toxic and did not lead to cell death. The results showed that the essential oils used provide an effective solution as active substances in wound dressings.

Abstract
The phase behavior of biomolecules containing persistent molecular entities is generally limited due to their characteristic size that exceeds the intermolecular force field. Consequently, favorable properties normally associated with the liquid phase of a substance, such as fluidity or processability, are not relevant for the processing of biomolecules, thus hindering the optimal processing of biomolecules. The implied problem that arises is how to convert folded biomolecules to display a richer phase behavior. To alleviate this dilemma, a generic approach to liquefied polysaccharides-based polymers is proposed, resulting in a polysaccharide fluid with a tunable condensed state structure (solid-gel-liquid). Polysaccharide biobased fluids materials transcend the limits of the physical state of the biobased material itself and can even create completely new properties (different processing methods as well as functions) in a variety of polymeric structures. Considering the solvent incompatible high and low-temperature applications, this method will have a great influence on the design of nanostructures of biomolecular derivatives and is expected to transform biomass materials such as polysaccharide biopolymers from traditional use to resource use, ultimately leading to the efficient use of biomass materials and their sustainability.
