Dammak I, Luciano CG, Pérez-Córdoba LJ, Monteiro ML, Conte-Junior CA, Sobral PJDA. Advances in biopolymeric active films incorporated with emulsified lipophilic compounds: a review. RSC Adv 2021; 11:28148-28168. [PMID: 35480739 PMCID: PMC9038010 DOI: 10.1039/d1ra04888k] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2021] [Accepted: 08/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The attention towards active films has increased due to consumer demand for high-quality foods without chemical additives. Active biopolymer-based films have shown great potential for active films by impacting food safety, acting as the carriers of various natural antioxidant and antimicrobial compounds, and decreasing environmental pollution from petrol-derived packaging materials. However, there is a wide range of challenges concerning the different characteristics of biopolymers and plasticizers, often hygroscopic/hydrophilic, compared to numerous lipophilic bioactive compounds. Therefore, recent studies have focused on applying oil-in-water emulsion-based systems to enhance the lipophilic bioactive compounds' dispersibility into the film matrix, improving their performance. It is worth emphasizing that resulting complex systems give rise to new challenges such as (i) dispersion technology of the bioactive compounds with minimum adverse effects on its bioactivities, (ii) interactions between different components of the active films, giving rise to new physicochemical properties, and (iii) the change of the diffusion properties of bioactive compounds into the active films, resulting in different release properties. These challenges are profound and critically discussed in this review, as well as the encapsulation techniques employed in preparing emulsions loaded with lipophilic bioactive compounds for the active film development. An outlook of future directions in the research, development, and application of these active films are given. The attention towards active films has increased due to consumer demand for high-quality foods without chemical additives.![]()

Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:1024. [PMID: 34371716 PMCID: PMC8309190 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13071024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2021] [Revised: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Psoriasis is a skin disease that is not lethal and does not spread through bodily contact. However, this seemingly harmless condition can lead to a loss of confidence and social stigmatization due to a persons' flawed appearance. The conventional methods of psoriasis treatment include taking in systemic drugs to inhibit immunoresponses within the body or applying topical drugs onto the surface of the skin to inhibit cell proliferation. Topical methods are favored as they pose lesser side effects compared to the systemic methods. However, the side effects from systemic drugs and low bioavailability of topical drugs are the limitations to the treatment. The use of nanotechnology in this field has enhanced drug loading capacity and reduced dosage size. In this review, biosurfactants were introduced as a 'greener' alternative to their synthetic counterparts. Glycolipid biosurfactants are specifically suited for anti-psoriatic application due to their characteristic skin-enhancing qualities. The selection of a suitable oil phase can also contribute to the anti-psoriatic effect as some oils have skin-healing properties. The review covers the pathogenic pathway of psoriasis, conventional treatments, and prospective ingredients to be used as components in the nanoemulsion formulation. Furthermore, an insight into the state-of-the-art methods used in formulating nanoemulsions and their progression to low-energy methods are also elaborated in detail.

Abstract
Dielectric spectroscopy is employed to study the relaxation phenomena in natural polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) upon temperature and frequency variations. Effects of PHAs molecular structure on the relaxation, arising from the differences in monomeric composition, are investigated under identical conditions in a frequency range of 10-2-106 Hz, and at different temperatures. All PHA samples showed different dielectric response at different temperature. Primary α-relaxation signals are observed at temperature corresponding to the glass transition temperature. On the other hand, secondary β- and γ-relaxations are detected at low temperatures, and attributed to local motions of polar groups and small segments of the polymer chain. The dielectric properties of representative PHA samples are compared and discussed.
