Abstract
Precipitation was an important obstacle to improving zinc's bioavailability. Therefore, zinc-whey protein hydrolysate-chitosan oligosaccharide (Zn-WPH-COS) complexes (167 nm) were prepared by linking Zn-WPH (zinc: 18.4%) with COS (1:1, 2 h) to enhance zinc's bioaccessibility. Fourier-transform infrared showed Zn-WPH formed with zinc replaced hydrogen (from 3274 to 3279 cm-1) and reacted with COO- (C-N: from 1394 to 1402 cm-1), a new peak at 1025 cm-1 proved COS can be successful cross-linked (Zn-WPH-COS). Fluorescence spectra showed zinc and COS reduced WPH hydrophobicity (28.0 and 39.0%, respectively). Circular dichroism showed zinc decreased WPH α-helix (from 13.7 to 11.5%), in contrast with COS to Zn-WPH. Zinc solubility and dialyzability were increased (64.5/ 54.2% vs 50.2/ 41.2% vs 29.5/ 21.7%) in Zn-WPH-COS, compared with Zn-WPH and ZnSO4·7H2O, respectively, due to the smallest size (167 nm) and COS protection on Zn-WPH (gastric digestion). These results indicate Zn-WPH-COS could significantly improve the digestion and absorption of zinc.

Abstract
Growing concern is about the potential side effects of nanomaterials from food packaging, notably zinc oxide nanoparticles (nZnO). Previous research revealed that walnut-derived peptides could mitigate this inhibitory effect, but the mechanism involved is unclear. Here, we found that not all peptides have such an effect. Based on the growth inhibition model of Lactobacillus rhamnosus LRa05 induced by nZnO, we assessed the protective effects of various peptides. Notably, four peptides containing charged amino acids (PPKNW, WPPKN, ADIYTE, and WEREEQE) were found to effectively alleviate the growth inhibition phenomenon. We hypothesize that the peptide-nZnO interaction modifies this effect, as confirmed through infrared, Raman, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Our results highlight amide bonds, amino groups, carboxyl groups, and benzene rings as key peptide binding sites on nZnO, with static quenching primarily due to hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. This study elucidates peptide characteristics in nZnO interactions, facilitating a deeper exploration of food matrix-nanocomposite interactions.

Abstract
Tryptic hydrolysates of protein fractions obtained by the Osborne method from chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) seeds interacted with zinc ions and the results of chelation were monitored by the Energy Dispersive X-Ray (EDX) technique. The glutelin hydrolysate (GluHyd) reacted with zinc ions and depicted a relatively higher zinc content. For this reason, the zinc complex of the glutelin hydrolysate (GluHyd-Zn) was studied deeper, and 11 peptides were identified in its more zinc-containing second fraction obtained after gel filtration. The peptide HKERVQLHIIPTAVGK showed a relatively higher chelating capacity (57.86 ± 2.14%). According to the result of the ICP-OS analysis, 1 mg peptide could chelate 381.61 ± 133.39 µg zinc, and the molar ratio of peptide-zinc was about 1:4. Spectral methods proved that side chain and C-termini carboxyl groups of the peptide mostly were involved in chelation and N atoms of amino side chains, imidazole group of histidine, and N-termini at some extents were occupied by the metal ions. Modeling of zinc-peptide interaction was done using Molecular Operating Environment (MOE) software. The results of the docking correlate with the experimental data.ACE2 inhibitory effect of HKERVQLHIIPTAVGK-Zn complex (IC50 = 1.5 mg/mL) was better than that of HKERVQLHIIPTAVGK (IC50 = 2.2 mg/mL).

Abstract
Bioactive peptides derived from diverse food proteins have been part of diverse investigations. Whey is a rich source of proteins and components related to biological activity. It is known that proteins have effects that promote health benefits. Peptides derived from whey proteins are currently widely studied. These bioactive peptides are amino acid sequences that are encrypted within the first structure of proteins, which required hydrolysis for their release. The hydrolysis could be through in vitro or in vivo enzymatic digestion and using microorganisms in fermented systems. The biological activities associated with bio-peptides include immunomodulatory properties, antibacterial, antihypertensive, antioxidant and opioid, etc. These functions are related to general conditions of health or reduced risk of certain chronic illnesses. To determine the suitability of these peptides/ingredients for applications in food technology, clinical studies are required to evaluate their bioavailability, health claims, and safety of them. This review aimed to describe the biological importance of whey proteins according to the incidence in human health, their role as bioactive peptides source, describing methods, and obtaining technics. In addition, the paper exposes biochemical mechanisms during the activity exerted by biopeptides of whey, and their application trends.

Abstract
More than two billion people around the world are affected by zinc deficiency, mainly due to the inadequate intake and absorption of zinc. Based on recent research findings, the bioactive peptides could potentially be used to combat zinc deficiency particularly due to their Zinc chelating ability. The main aim of this review was to present current findings, supporting the potential use of bioactive peptides based on their ability to enhance zinc absorption. In-vivo, in-vitro, and ex-vivo studies have demonstrated that zinc chelating peptides can enhance the retention, transportation, and absorption of zinc. Comparative studies on zinc bioavailability from protein hydrolysates and zinc salts have demonstrated that the protein hydrolysates-zinc complexes are more bioavailable than the zinc salts. Data from the structure-function relationship of zinc chelating peptides suggest that the zinc chelating capacities of peptides increase in the following order; the position of zinc chelator > zinc chelator strength > abundance of zinc chelators > net charge > molecular weight. In addition, the transport mechanism of peptide-zinc complex is hypothesized, and the potential use of bioactive peptides based on their safety and taste and limitations to their commercialization are also discussed.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that can lead to the periodontal pocket formation and tooth loss. This study was aimed to develop antimicrobials loaded hydrogels composed of cellulose nanofibers (CNF) and κ-carrageenan oligosaccharides (CO) nanoparticles for the treatment of periodontitis. Two antimicrobial agents such as surfactin and Herbmedotcin were selected as the therapeutic agents and the hydrogels were formulated based on the increasing concentration of surfactin. The proposed material has high thermal stability, controlled release, and water absorption capacity. This study was proceeded by investigating the in vitro antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of the hydrogels. This material has strong antibacterial activity against periodontal pathogens such as Streptococcus mutans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Moreover, a significant increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) production and a decrease in biofilm formation and metabolic activity of the bacteria was observed in the presence of hydrogel. Besides, it reduced the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, transcription factor, and cytokines production in human gingival fibroblast cells (HGF) under inflammatory conditions. In conclusion, the hydrogels were successfully developed and proven to have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties for the treatment of periodontitis. Thus, it can be used as an excellent candidate for periodontitis treatment.
