Abstract
The prevalence of gel foods in the food industry has grown significantly due to their high water content, low calorie content, and ability to enhance satiety. This review focuses on jelly powder, the earliest form of gel food in the current food industry. Jelly is the earliest form of the gel-food, dating back to the Northern Song dynasty in China, and it relies on gelatinizing and aging of starch to form a gel. With the development of technology, jelly gradually evolved to rely on gel form of food additives. Jelly is divided into starch jelly and non-starch jelly according to their different gel formation. The development status of the two kinds of jelly is also summarized. Additionally, the current research status of these materials is summarized to broaden the understanding of gel food and offer valuable insights for future research in this field.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 278:134865. [PMID: 39163951 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134865] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2024] [Revised: 08/13/2024] [Accepted: 08/17/2024] [Indexed: 08/22/2024]
Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed weaknesses in healthcare systems and underscored the need for advanced antimicrobial materials. This study investigates the quaternization of agar, a seaweed-derived polysaccharide, and the development of electrospun membranes for air filtration in facemasks and biomedical applications. Using the betacoronavirus MHV-3 as a model, quaternized agar and membranes achieved a 90-99.99 % reduction in viral load, without associated cytotoxicity. The quaternization process reduced the viscosity of the solution from 1.19 ± 0.005 to 0.64 ± 0.005 Pa.s and consequently the electrospun fiber diameter ranged from 360 to 185 nm. Membranes synthesized based on polyvinyl alcohol and thermally cross-linked with citric acid exhibited lower water permeability. Avoiding organic solvents in the electrospinning technique ensured eco-friendly production. This approach offers a promising way to develop biocompatible and functional materials for healthcare and environmental applications.

Quaternization of cassava starch and determination of antimicrobial activity against bacteria and coronavirus. Carbohydr Res 2024; 538:109098. [PMID: 38527408 DOI: 10.1016/j.carres.2024.109098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024]
Abstract
This study describes the novel development of quaternized cassava starch (Q-CS) with antimicrobial and antiviral properties, particularly effective against the MHV-3 coronavirus. The preparation of Q-CS involved the reaction of cassava starch (CS) with glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTMAC) in an alkaline solution. Q-CS physicochemical properties were determined by FTIR, NMR, elemental analysis, zeta potential, TGA, and moisture sorption. FTIR and NMR spectra confirmed the introduction of cationic groups in the CS structure. The elemental analysis revealed a degree of substitution (DS) of 0.552 of the cationic reagent on the hydroxyl groups of CS. Furthermore, Q-CS exhibited a positive zeta potential value (+28.6 ± 0.60 mV) attributed to the high positive charge density shown by the quaternary ammonium groups. Q-CS demonstrated lower thermal stability and higher moisture sorption compared to CS. The antimicrobial activity of Q-CS was confirmed against Escherichia coli (MIC = 0.156 mg mL-1) and Staphylococcus aureus (MIC = 0.312 mg mL-1), along with a remarkable ability to inactivate 99% of MHV-3 coronavirus after only 1 min of direct contact. Additionally, Q-CS showed high cell viability (close to 100%) and minimal cytotoxicity effects, guaranteeing its safe use. Therefore, these findings indicate the potential use of Q-CS as a raw material for antiseptic biomaterials.

Abstract
The current study effectively designed novel cross-linked tosyl-carrageenan/alginate (Ts-Car/Alg) beads to remove Pb2+ ions from their aqueous solutions. To confirm the structure of the produced matrix, characterization methods such as XRD, SEM, FTIR, and EDX were used. Batch experiments were employed in order to further evaluate the adsorption efficiency of Pb2+ ions. Additionally, various variables, including contact time, solution pH, adsorbent dosage, and initial concentration of Pb2+ ions were investigated using atomic absorption. The results of this study showed that the adsorption equilibrium increased as Pb2+ ions concentration increased at pH = 5.3 after a contact time of 120 min, with 0.3 g of Ts-Car/Alg that having the best adsorption capacity at 74 mg/g. The adsorption progression was further examined using the kinetic and isothermal models. With a correlation coefficient of 0.975, the Freundlich model was thought to better fit Pb2+ ions adsorption from the isotherm investigation. Also, the adsorption kinetics were investigated using a pseudo-second-order model with 1/n ratio of 0.683. This Ts-Car/Alg adsorbent is regarded as an effective candidate to be used for water treatment because the reusability process of produced beads was successfully completed twice, and the adsorbent maintained its ability to remove Pb2+ ions. The prepared Ts-Car/Alg beads are therefore excellent candidates to be used as potent Pb2+ ions adsorbents from their aqueous solutions. The Ts-Car/Alg beads' regeneration and reusability investigation for the removal of heavy metal ions was completed in at least two successful cycles.

Abstract
Cationization is a promising chemical modification technique that improves properties by attaching permanent positive charges to the backbone of biopolymers. Carrageenan is a widely available and non-toxic polysaccharide, commonly used in food industry but with low solubility in cold water. We performed a central composite design experiment to check the parameters that most influence the degree of cationic substitution and the film solubility. Hydrophilic quaternary ammonium groups on the carrageenan backbone enhance interaction in drug delivery systems and create active surfaces. Statistical analysis indicated that within the studied range, only the molar ratio between the cationizing reagent and the repeating disaccharide unit of carrageenan had a significant effect. Optimized parameters using 0.086 g of sodium hydroxide and glycidyltrimethylammonium/disaccharide repeating unit of 6.83 achieved 65.47 % degree of substitution and 4.03 % solubility. Characterizations confirmed the effective incorporation of cationic groups into the commercial structure of carrageenan and thermal stability improvement of the derivatives.
