Abstract
This study considers the potential of elemental analysis of polysaccharide ionotropic gels in elucidating the junction zones for different divalent cations. The developed algorithm ensures the correct separation of contributions from physically adsorbed and structure-forming ionic compounds, with the obtained results scaled to alginate C12 block. Possible versions of chain association into dimers and their subsequent integration into flat junction zones were analyzed within the framework of the "egg-box" model. The application of combinatorial analysis made it possible to derive theoretical relations to find the probability of various types of egg-box cell occurrences for alginate chains with arbitrary monomeric units ratio μ = M/G, which makes it possible to compare experimental data for alginates of different origins. Based on literature data and obtained chemical formulas, the possible correspondence of concrete biopolymer cells to those most preferable for filling by alkaline earth cations was established. The identified features of elemental composition suggest the formation of composite hydrated complexes with the participation of transition metal cations. The possibility of quantitatively assessing ordered secondary structures formed due to the physical sorption of ions and molecules from environment, correlating with the sorption capabilities of Me2+ alginate, was established.

Ion-Induced Polysaccharide Gelation: Peculiarities of Alginate Egg-Box Association with Different Divalent Cations. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15051243. [PMID: 36904484 PMCID: PMC10007407 DOI: 10.3390/polym15051243] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Revised: 02/26/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Structural aspects of polysaccharide hydrogels based on sodium alginate and divalent cations Ba2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Ni2+ and Mn2+ was studied using data on hydrogel elemental composition and combinatorial analysis of the primary structure of alginate chains. It was shown that the elemental composition of hydrogels in the form of freezing dried microspheres gives information on the structure of junction zones in the polysaccharide hydrogel network, the degree of filling of egg-box cells by cations, the type and magnitude of the interaction of cations with alginate chains, the most preferred types of alginate egg-box cells for cation binding and the nature of alginate dimers binding in junction zones. It was ascertained that metal-alginate complexes have more complicated organization than was previously desired. It was revealed that in metal-alginate hydrogels, the number of cations of various metals per C12 block may be less than the limiting theoretical value equal to 1 for completely filled cells. In the case of alkaline earth metals and zinc, this number is equal to 0.3 for calcium, 0.6 for barium and zinc and 0.65-0.7 for strontium. We have determined that in the presence of transition metals copper, nickel and manganese, a structure similar to an egg-box is formed with completely filled cells. It was determined that in nickel-alginate and copper-alginate microspheres, the cross-linking of alginate chains and formation of ordered egg-box structures with completely filled cells are carried out by hydrated metal complexes with complicated composition. It was found that an additional characteristic of complex formation with manganese cations is the partial destruction of alginate chains. It has been established that the existence of unequal binding sites of metal ions with alginate chains can lead to the appearance of ordered secondary structures due to the physical sorption of metal ions and their compounds from the environment. It was shown that hydrogels based on calcium alginate are most promising for absorbent engineering in environmental and other modern technologies.

Abstract
During the last few decades, polysaccharide hydrogels attract more and more attention as therapeutic protein delivery systems due to their biocompatibility and the simplicity of the biodegradation of natural polymers. The protein retention by and release from the polysaccharide gel network is regulated by geometry and physical interactions of protein with the matrix. In the present work, we studied the molecular details of interactions between κ-carrageenan and three lipases, namely the lipases from Candida rugosa, Mucor javanicus, and Rhizomucor miehei—which differ in their size and net charge—upon protein immobilization in microparticles of polysaccharide gel. The kinetics of protein release revealed the different capability of κ-carrageenan to retain lipases, which are generally negatively charged; that was shown to be in line with the energy of interactions between polysaccharides and positively charged epitopes on the protein surface. These data create a platform for the novel design of nanocarriers for biomedical probes of enzymatic origin.

Polysaccharide-Based Edible Gels as Functional Ingredients: Characterization, Applicability, and Human Health Benefits. Gels 2022; 8:524. [PMID: 36005125 PMCID: PMC9407509 DOI: 10.3390/gels8080524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2022] [Revised: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Nowadays, edible materials such as polysaccharides have gained attention due to their valuable attributes, especially gelling property. Polysaccharide-based edible gels (PEGs) can be classified as (i) hydrogels, (ii) oleogels and bigels, (iii) and aerogels, cryogels and xerogels, respectively. PEGs have different characteristics and benefits depending on the functional groups of polysaccharide chains (e.g., carboxylic, sulphonic, amino, methoxyl) and on the preparation method. However, PEGs are found in the incipient phase of research and most studies are related to their preparation, characterization, sustainable raw materials, and applicability. Furthermore, all these aspects are treated separately for each class of PEG, without offering an overview of those already obtained PEGs. The novelty of this manuscript is to offer an overview of the classification, definition, formulation, and characterization of PEGs. Furthermore, the applicability of PEGs in the food sector (e.g., food packaging, improving food profile agent, delivery systems) and in the medical/pharmaceutical sector is also critically discussed. Ultimately, the correlation between PEG consumption and polysaccharides properties for human health (e.g., intestinal microecology, "bridge effect" in obesity, gut microbiota) are critically discussed for the first time. Bigels may be valuable for use as ink for 3D food printing in personalized diets for human health treatment. PEGs have a significant role in developing smart materials as both ingredients and coatings and methods, and techniques for exploring PEGs are essential. PEGs as carriers of bioactive compounds have a demonstrated effect on obesity. All the physical, chemical, and biological interactions among PEGs and other organic and inorganic structures should be investigated.

Abstract
To deliver therapeutic proteins into a living body, it is important to maintain their target activity in the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration. Secreted ribonuclease from Bacillus pumilus (binase) has antitumor and antiviral activity, which makes it a promising therapeutic agent. This globular protein of small molecular weight (12.2 kDa) is considered as a potential agent that induces apoptosis of tumor cells expressing certain oncogenes, including colorectal and duodenum cancer. The most important problem of its usage is the preservation of its structure and target activity, which could be lost during oral administration. Here, we developed alginate microspheres reinforced with divalent cations and analyzed the enzyme release from them. Using methods of scanning electron microscopy, measurements of fluorescence, enzyme catalytic activity, and determination of viability of the duodenum adenocarcinoma tumor cell line, we characterized obtained microspheres and chose calcium as a biogenic ion-strengthening microsphere structure. Among such modified additivities as beta-casein, gelatin, and carbon nanotubes introduced into microspheres, only gelatin showed a pronounced increase in their stability and provided data on the prolonged action of enzyme release from microspheres into tumor cell culture medium during 48 h in an amount of about 70% of the loaded quantity.

Abstract
Biocompatible, nontoxic, and biodegradable polysaccharides are considered as a promising base for bio-inspired materials, applicable as scaffolds in regenerative medicine, coatings in drug delivery systems, etc. The tunable macroscopic properties of gels should meet case-dependent requirements. The admixture of proteins to polysaccharides and their coupling in more sophisticated structures opens an avenue for gel property tuning via physical cross-linking of components and the modification of gel network structure. In this review recent success in the conformational studies of binary protein-polysaccharide gels is summarized with the main focus upon carrageenans. Future perspectives and challenges in rational design of novel polysaccharide-based materials are outlined.
