Hu J, Zeng G. Chitosan grafted with gallic acid and cerium dioxide hybrid nanocomposites as environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitors for mild steel: An experimental and computational study. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 279:135074. [PMID: 39236627 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.135074] [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: 07/05/2024] [Revised: 08/09/2024] [Accepted: 08/24/2024] [Indexed: 09/07/2024]
Abstract
Chitosan grafted with gallic acid (CS-GA), along with CS-GA doped with CeO2 nanoparticles (CS-GA-CeO2) were synthesized as novel environmentally friendly mild steel corrosion inhibitors. The formation of these derivatives was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR), and thermal analysis (TGA). Based on potentiodynamic polarization curves (PDP) measurements, the inhibitors acted primarily as hybrid inhibitors, while following the Langmuir adsorption theory model. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and 3D surface profiles, confirmed that CS-GA-CeO2 adsorbed on the mild steel forming a protective layer thus preventing the invasion of corrosive media. The corrosion protection mechanism of chitosan derivatives was investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. Electrochemical measurements were used to investigate the corrosion inhibition by CS-GA and CS-GA-CeO2 on mild steel in a 3.5 % NaCl solution. At room temperature, the highest inhibition efficiency (93.58 %) was achieved at 200 ppm CS-GA-CeO2. Modified chitosan nanocomposites were confirmed as promising corrosion inhibitors.

Abstract
Polyphenols, as important secondary metabolites in nature, are widely distributed in vegetables, fruits, grains, and other foods. Polyphenols have attracted widespread attention in the food industry and nutrition due to their unique structure and various biological activities. However, the health benefits of polyphenols are compromised owing to their structural instability and sensitivity to the external environment. The interaction between polyphenols and polysaccharides largely determined the stability and functional characteristics of polyphenols in food processing and storage. Thus, this topic has attracted widespread attention in recent years. The main purposes of this article are as follows: 1) to review the interaction mechanisms of polyphenols and polysaccharides including non-covalent and covalent bonds; 2) to comprehensively analyze the influencing factors of the interaction between polyphenols and polysaccharides, and introduce the effects of their interaction on the properties of polyphenols; 3) to systematically summarize the applications of interaction between polyphenols and polysaccharides. The findings can provide the important reference and theoretical support for the application of polyphenols and polysaccharides in food industry.

Abstract
The study aimed to develop a novel, transparent and non-toxic coating with antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antifogging properties. The p-coumaric acid-grafted chitosan (CS-PCA) was synthesized via a carbodiimide coupling reaction and then characterized. The CS-PCA coatings were further prepared using the casting method. The CS-PCA coatings obtained exhibited excellent transparency, UV-light barrier ability, and antifogging properties, as confirmed by spectroscopy and antifogging tests. The CS-PCA coatings showed stronger antioxidant capacity and antimicrobial properties against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Botrytis cinerea compared to CS. The multifunctional coatings were further coated on the polyethylene cling film and their effectiveness was confirmed through a strawberry preservation test. The decay of the strawberries was reduced by CS-PCA coated film at room temperature.

Abstract
Chitosan is a natural polymer material with antibacterial, biodegradable and biocompatibility. At present, the research is mainly to enhance the antibacterial and antioxidant activity of chitosan by grafting with phenolic acids to further expand its application in food. In this study, the effect of chitosan-g-gentisic acid graft copolymer (CS-g-GA) on the shelf life of refrigerated seabass (Lateolabrax maculatus) was investigated. The results of microbial analysis demonstrated that GA and CS-g-GA treatment could effectively inhibit the growth of microorganisms. In addition, physicochemical analysis showed that GA and CS-g-GA treatment could reduce the increase of pH value, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N) and K-value, delay water loss, maintain texture and color, and postpone the decrease of sensory score. Compared with the control sample, CS-g-GA could keep the quality of Lateolabrax japonicus and extend its shelf-life for another 9 days. In summary, CS-g-GA has good application and development prospects for the preservation of seabass.

Novel hydrocolloids synthesized by polyphenols grafted onto chitosan: A promising coating to inhibit PhIP formation during pan-frying of golden pompano fillets. Food Chem 2024; 447:139029.

Abstract
Hydrocolloids synthesized by gallic acid (GA) and ferulic acid (FA) grafting onto chitosan (CS) were characterized, and their effects on PhIP formation in pan-fried golden pompano were investigated. Spectrograms including nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and ultraviolet-visible confirmed that GA and FA were successfully grafted onto CS via covalent bonds, with grafting degree of 97.06 ± 2.56 mg GA/g and 93.56 ± 2.76 mg FA/g, respectively. The CS-g-GA and CS-g-FA exerted better solubility and antioxidant activities than CS. For the 8-min pan-fried golden pompano fillets, CS-g-GA and CS-g-FA (0.5 %, m/v) significantly reduced the PhIP formation by 61.71 % and 81.64 %, respectively. Chemical models revealed that CS-g-GA and CS-g-FA inhibited PhIP formation mainly by decreasing the phenylacetaldehyde contents from Maillard reaction and competing with creatinine to react with phenylacetaldehyde. Therefore, it was suggested that CS-g-phenolic acids emerge as novel coating for aquatic products during processing and inhibit heterocyclic amines generation.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS)-based photo-cross-linkable hydrogels have gained increasing attention in biomedical applications. In this study, we grafted CS with gallic acid (GA) by carbodiimide chemistry to prepare the GA-CS conjugate, which was subsequently modified with methacrylic anhydride (MA) modification to obtain the methacrylated GA-CS conjugate (GA-CS-MA). Our results demonstrated that the GA-CS-MA hydrogel not only exhibited improved physicochemical properties but also showed antibacterial, antioxidative, and anti-inflammatory capacity. It showed moderate antibacterial activity and especially showed a more powerful inhibitory effect against Gram-positive bacteria. It modulated macrophage polarization, downregulated pro-inflammatory gene expression, upregulated anti-inflammatory gene expression, and significantly reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) production under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. Subcutaneously implanted GA-CS-MA hydrogels induced significantly lower inflammatory responses, as evidenced by less inflammatory cell infiltration, thinner fibrous capsule, and predominately promoted M2 polarization. This study provides a feasible strategy to prepare CS-based photo-cross-linkable hydrogels with improved physicochemical properties for biomedical applications.

Abstract
This study determined the inhibitory mechanism as well as anti-biofilm activity of chlorogenic acid-grafted-chitosan (CS-g-CA) against Pseudomonas fluorescens (P. fluorescens) in terms of biofilm content, oxidative stress, quorum sensing and cyclic diguanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) concentration, and detected the changes in the expression levels of related genes by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Results indicated that treatment with sub-concentrations of CS-g-CA for P. fluorescens led to reduce the biofilm size of large colonies, decrease the content of biofilm and extracellular polymers, weaken the motility and adhesion of P. fluorescens. Moreover, CS-g-CA resulted in higher ROS levels, diminished catalase activity (CAT), and increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) in P. fluorescens. CS-g-CA reduced the production of quorum-sensing signaling molecules (AHLs) and the concentration of c-di-GMP in bacteria. Genes for flagellar synthesis (flgA), the resistance to stress (rpoS and hfq), and pde (phosphodiesterases that degrade c-di-GMP) were significantly down-regulated as determined by RT-PCR. Overall, CS-g-CA leads to the accumulation of ROS in bacteria via P. fluorescens environmental resistance genes and decreases the activity of enzymes in the bacterial antioxidant system, and interferes with the production and reception of quorum-sensing signaling molecules and the synthesis of c-di-GMP in P. fluorescens, which regulates the generation of biofilms.

The antibacterial and inhibition effect of chitosan grafted gentisate acid derivatives against Pseudomonas fluorescens: Attacking multiple targets on structure, metabolism system, antioxidant system, and biofilm. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 273:133225.

Abstract
This work aimed to investigate the antibacterial ability and potential mechanism of chitosan grafted gentisate acid derivatives (CS-g-GA) against Pseudomonas fluorescens. The results showed that CS-g-GA had a significant suppressive impact on the growth of Pseudomonas fluorescens, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) were 0.64 mg/mL and 1.28 mg/mL, respectively. Results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and alkaline phosphatase (AKPase) confirmed that CS-g-GA destroyed the cell structure thereby causing the leakage of intracellular components. In addition, 1 × MIC of CS-g-GA could significantly inhibit the formation of biofilms, and 74.78 % mature biofilm and 86.21 % extracellular polysaccharide of Pseudomonas fluorescens were eradicated by CS-g-GA at 2 × MIC. The results on the respiratory energy metabolism system and antioxidant system demonstrated that CS-g-GA caused respiratory disturbance and energy limitation by influencing the key enzyme activities. It could also bind to DNA and affect genetic metabolism. From this, it could be seen that CS-g-GA had the potential to control foodborne contamination of Pseudomonas fluorescens by attacking multiple targets.

Abstract
Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) are crucial carbohydrate-based biomaterial used in the synthesis of potential drugs and biological agents, but their antibacterial activities are not significant. In this study, AOS acylated derivatives were synthesized by grafting maleic anhydride (MA) onto AOS at varying ratios. Additionally, their inhibitory effects against Staphylococcus aureus were thoroughly investigated. Characterization of the AOS acylated derivatives (AOS-MA-x, where x = 1, 5, 10, and 20) was conducted using Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction, which confirmed the successful synthesis of these derivatives. The bacteriostatic activity of the AOS-MA derivatives was assessed using growth curves and plate coating method, demonstrating significant antibacterial effects against S. aureus, as compared with AOS. Among these derivatives, AOS-MA-20 exhibited the most potent bacteriostatic activity and was selected for further investigation of its inhibitory mechanism. Scanning electron microscopy analysis revealed that treatment with AOS-MA-20 led to the lysis and rupture of S. aureus cells, expelling their intracellular contents. Moreover, AOS-MA-20 disrupted the integrity of cell wall and cell membrane, impacted ATPase activity, and inhibited the formation of biofilm to some extent, ultimately resulting in bacterial death. These findings lay a foundational framework for the development of environmentally friendly antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
Chitosan has been considered an eco-friendly biopolymer. Chitosan is a natural polycationic linear polysaccharide composed of D-glucosamine and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine linked by β-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Chitosan has been used as an eco-friendly biopolymer for so many agricultural applications. Unfortunately, the relatively poor solubility and poor antimicrobial properties limit its widespread applications in agriculture sciences. Hence, chitosan derivatives are produced via various chemical approaches such as cross-linking, carboxylation, ionic binding, and so on. As an alternative to chemical fertilizers, chitosan derivatives, chitosan conjugates, nanostructures, semisynthetic derivatives, oligo mixes, chitosan nanoparticles, and chitosan nano-carriers are synthesized for various agricultural applications. Its several chemical and physical properties such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, permeability, cost-effectiveness, low toxicity, and environmental friendliness make it useful for many agricultural applications. Hence, popularizing its use as an elicitor molecule for different host-pathogen interaction studies. Thus, the versatile and plethora of chitosan derivatives are gaining momentum in agricultural sciences. Bio-stimulant properties and multifunctional benefits are associated with further prospective research. Therefore, in the present review, we decipher the potential pros and cons of chitosan derivatives in plants.

Abstract
This study synthesized five phenolic acid-chitosan copolymers utilizing the carbodiimide-mediated chemical crosslinking reaction. Comprehensive evaluations were conducted on their structural attributes, physicochemical properties, and biological activities. Fourier transform infrared confirmed successful grafting of phenolic acids onto chitosan via amide linkages. Additionally, ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy and proton nuclear magnetic resonance analyses revealed novel absorption peaks between 200 and 400 nm and 6.0-8.0 ppm, respectively, attributable to the incorporated phenolic acids. Notably, the chitosan-gentisate acid copolymer exhibited significantly enhanced biological activity (p < 0.05) compared to pure chitosan and the other four conjugates, attributed to its highest grafting degree of approximately 295.93 mg/g. These modified chitosan derivatives effectively preserved the quality of sea bass (Lateolabrax japonicus) during refrigerated storage, extending its shelf-life by up to 9 days, 7 days, and 4 days relative to control, chitosan, and gentisate acid groups.

Food Chem 2024; 440:138278. [PMID: 38157704 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138278] [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: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 12/17/2023] [Accepted: 12/23/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to develop novel functional stabilizers for Pickering emulsions using phenolic acids-grafted chitin nanofibers (phenolic acids-g-ChNF), which were fabricated by grafting ferulic acid (FA), sinapic acid (SA) and caffeic acid (CA) onto ChNF via free radical-mediated method. The Fourier transform infrared spectrum and Proton nuclear magnetic resonance showed that graft copolymerization occurred between the amino groups of ChNF and the carbonyl of the phenolic acids. Further, it was revealed that CA-g-ChNF and SA-g-ChNF possessed stronger antioxidant and antibacterial properties than the original ChNF and FA-g-ChNF. Additionally, we applied phenolic acids-g-ChNF to develop Pickering emulsions and found that SA-g-ChNF- and CA-g-ChNF-stabilized emulsions displayed reduced droplet sizes compared to FA, the main reason for which was that SA and CA had a rather close bonding relationship with ChNF. Taken together, SA-g-ChNF and CA-g-ChNF as novel multi-functional particles can be employed for facilitating the stability of Pickering emulsions.

Abstract
Although iron in meat is an important trace element for human diet, its presence also induces postprandial oxidative stress and aggravates the condition of patients with iron overload. To overcome this situation, a type of new tunable Fe-absorption bioactive materials was constructed in this study. First, four phenolic acids (Caffeic acid, Gallic acid, Protocatechuic acid, Chlorogenic acid) were grafted onto chitosan. Then, the copolymers were prepared into micron-level microspheres by emulsification method, which were characterized in adsorption isotherms (Langmuir model), swelling behavior and digestion characteristics. In order to verify the practical application effect of microspheres, Protocatechuic acid grafted chitosan microspheres as the representative were used in sirloin powder to observe their effects in vitro digestion and rat experiment. In the present study, microspheres were innovatively applied in meat consumption, which significantly inhibited the oxidation of meat in the process of digestion and effectively controlled the iron absorption. These results are expected to play an important role in promoting the healthy consumption of meat around the world, improving gastrointestinal redox status through dietary assistance, and treating diseases related to iron overload.

Abstract
In this study, carboxylic acids compounds were grafted onto chitooligosaccharides to prepare seven phenyl/indolyl-acyl chitooligosaccharides derivatives. The structures of the derivatives were characterized by IR spectroscopy, 13C NMR and elemental analysis. Meanwhile, antioxidant activities in vitro of the novel derivatives were analyzed. Compared to COS and carboxylic acid, the derivatives showed higher scavenging capacity for superoxide anion and DPPH radicals, with scavenging rates of 59.39% and 94.86%, respectively. The hydroxyl radical scavenging ability of the derivatives was only 18.89%. The antifungal activities of chitooligosaccharide derivatives against Diaporthe batatas and Phytophthora capsici were studied by the growth rate method. Compared with chitooligosaccharide itself, derivatives were inhibited by 97.77% and 100%. The above results showed that chitooligosaccharide derivatives have good biocompatibility and can be used in food, agriculture and medicine.

Abstract
Utilizing renewable natural resources to construct multifunctional packaging materials is critical to achieving sustainable development in the food packaging industry. In this study, we crafted transparent films with comprehensive UV-shielding and antioxidant properties by blending a multicomponent chitosan complex with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), subsequently applied to preserve peanut butter. The multicomponent chitosan complex, synthesized from chitosan, ferulic acid (FA), and 5-oxo-3,5-dihydro-2H-thiazolo [3,2-a] pyridine-7-carboxylic acid (TPCA) through direct heating in water, served as the foundation. This chitosan complex was seamlessly blended with PVA, resulting in the creation of a transparent film through the solvent casting method. A meticulous investigation into the chemical structure and physicochemical properties of the blended films was conducted. The FA and TPCA components exhibited robust ultraviolet absorption properties, conferring virtually complete full-band ultraviolet shielding ability to the blend film. Additionally, FA endowed the blended film with significant antioxidant activity. The effectiveness of the chitosan complex/PVA blended film in preserving peanut butter from oxidative spoilage was demonstrated, showcasing its robustness in food preservation. Our research underscores the significance of creating advanced packaging materials from sustainable sources.

Abstract
Nanocomposites based on silver nanoparticles and chitosan present important advantages for medical applications, showing over time their role in antibacterial evaluation. This work presents the comparative study of two chemical synthesis procedures of nanocomposites, based on trisodium citrate dihydrate and sodium hydroxide, using various chitosan concentrations for a complex investigation. The nanocomposites were characterized by AFM and DLS regarding their dimensions, while FT-IR and UV-VIS spectrometry were used for the optical properties and to reveal the binding of silver nanoparticles with chitosan. Their antibacterial effect was determined using a disk diffusion method on two bacteria strains, E. coli and S. aureus. The results indicate that, when using both methods, the nanocomposites obtained were below 100 nm, yet the antibacterial effect proved to be stronger for the nanocomposites obtained using sodium hydroxide. Furthermore, the antibacterial effect can be related to the nanocomposites' sizes, since the smallest dimension nanocomposites exhibited the best bacterial growth inhibition on both bacteria strains we tested and for both types of silver nanocomposites.

Abstract
This study reports the use of front-face fluorescence spectroscopy with principal component analysis (PCA) as a tool for the characterisation of selected Polish herbhoneys (raspberry, lemon balm, rose, mint, black current, instant coffee, pine, hawthorn, and nettle). Fluorimetric spectra registered in the ranges ascribed to fluorescence of amino acids, polyphenols, vitamins, and products of Maillard's reaction enabled the comparison of herbhoney compositions. Obtained synchronous spectra combined with PCA were used to investigate potential differences between analysed samples and interactions between compounds present in them. The most substantial influence on the total variance had the intensities of polyphenols fluorescence. These intensities were the main factor differentiated by the analysed products.

Abstract
Monofloral and multifloral honey produced in different regions may have different bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacities, resulting in changes in the antimicrobial activity of honey. However, many of these compounds degrade due to the extreme digestion conditions, which may inhibit the antimicrobial activity. Given this context, this study aimed to describe the bioactive compounds of honey produced in Brazil and verify if honey samples from different botanical and geographical origins differ in bioactive compounds, and if honey maintains its antimicrobial activity after digestion simulation. Multivariate analysis was used to identify characteristics that differentiated the honey samples according to the botanical and geographical origin criteria. The amount of the bioactive compounds varied significantly: the total phenolic compound content varied from 20.49 to 101.44 mg GAE per 100 g, flavonoids varied from 1.41 to 13.52 mg QE per 100 g, phenolic acids varied from 13.61 to 56.41 mg CAE per 100 g, and carotenoids varied from 0.66 to 4.27 mg β-carotene per g. Multifloral honey (H22) produced in the dry season of northeastern Brazil presented the highest bioactive compound concentration except for the carotenoid content. HPLC-MS analysis showed the presence of six hydroxybenzoic acids, four hydroxycinnamic acids, eight flavonols, three flavanones, two flavones and two isoflavonoids; Pterodon pubescens monofloral honey (H14) from midwestern Brazil stood out in terms of the carotenoid content. All analyzed honey samples exhibited antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria before digestive process simulation, and bacteria were inhibited during in vitro digestion; this activity decreased during the simulation of the oral phase, remained in the gastric phase, and disappeared in the intestinal phase.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women all over the world. Mastectomy is the most effective treatment, but there are serious problems such as high tumor recurrence rate and side effects of chemotherapy. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a therapeutic strategy that can effectively promote postoperative wound healing and inhibit local tumor recurrence. In this study, a 3D printing scaffold based on carbon dots-curcumin nano-drug release (CCNPs) was developed as a local drug delivery platform (named CCNACA using CCNPs, Sodium alginate, Nanoclay and Caffeic Acid grafted Chitosan as raw materials), which has the ability to visualize drug release. The 14-day drug release test in vitro showed that the tumor inhibition rate of CCNACA scaffolds on breast cancer cells (MCF-7) was 73.77 ± 1.68 %. And the CCNACA scaffolds had good long-term antibacterial (Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus) activity. Animal experiments have shown that implanting CCNACA scaffolds into surgical defects can inhibit postoperative residual cancer cells, reduce inflammation, promote angiogenesis, and repair tissue defects caused by surgery. In summary, the local drug delivery system of this manuscript has great potential in wound healing and prevention of tumor recurrence after breast cancer surgery.

Bakar B, Pekdemir SS, Birhanlı E, Ulu A, Pekdemir ME, Ateş B. Unveiling the effect of molecular weight of vanillic acid grafted chitosan hydrogel films on physical, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties for application in food packaging. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 256:128397. [PMID: 38007024 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128397] [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: 09/10/2023] [Revised: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/27/2023]
Abstract
Till now, a wide range of chitosan (CHS)-based food packaging films have been developed. Yet, the role of molecular weight (MW), which is an important physical property of CHS, in determining the physicochemical and biochemical properties of vanillic acid (VA)-grafted CHS hydrogel films synthesized using CHS with different MWs has not been investigated until now. Three kinds of CHS including low, medium, and high MWs were grafted separately with VA through a carbodiimide mediated coupling reaction. No significant difference in water resistance properties was observed with increasing MW of CHS, in contrast to obvious decrease in light transmittance and opacity. The VA-g-CHS hydrogel films exhibited significantly improved light blocking capacity. A significant improvement in antioxidant (~6-fold) and antimicrobial (~1.2-fold) activity was observed after grafting with VA. In contrast, the free radical scavenging and antimicrobial activity decreased with increasing MW of CHS. Most importantly, VA-g-CHS hydrogel films could maintain the freshness of cherry tomatoes for up to 10 days at ~25 °C. However, no significant difference was observed depending on the MW value of CHS. This pioneering work is of great importance in guiding the selection of MW of CHS biomacromolecule to design hydrogel films with desired physicochemical and biochemical properties.

Abstract
In this study, chlorogenic acid-chitosan (CA-CS) copolymers were prepared with varying Chitosan (CS): chlorogenic acid (CA)ratios and characterized for their water solubility, antioxidant capacity, and emulsions stability. Results showed that CA-CS samples exhibited up to 90.5 % increase in DPPH scavenging efficiency and 20 % increase in hydroxyl radical scavenging efficiency compared to CS alone. CA-CS copolymers used to stabilize oil in water (O/W) emulsions, which were evaluated for their potential in encapsulating and protecting β-carotene. Microscopic observations revealed homogeneous spherical droplets in stable emulsions, suggesting effective interfacial structures. The selected CA-CS-stabilized O/W emulsions demonstrated encapsulation efficiencies of 74.8 % and 75.26 % for β-carotene. The CA-CS stabilized O/W emulsions provided the most effective protection against β-carotene degradation under UV exposure, retaining over 80 % of β-carotene content after 12 h of testing. These findings indicate that CA-CS-based O/W emulsions show promise as carriers and protectors for bioactive compounds, due to their improved antioxidant capacity, emulsions stability, and protection against degradation.

Abstract
Chitosan, a cost-effective and eco-friendly natural polymeric material, possesses excellent film-forming properties. However, it has low solubility and biological activity, which hinders its widespread applications. To overcome these limitations, researchers have developed phenolic acid-chitosan derivatives that greatly enhance the mechanical, antibacterial and antioxidant properties of chitosan, expanding its potential application, particularly in food preservation. This review aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the structure and biological activity of chitosan and phenolic acid, as well as various synthetic techniques employed in their modification. Phenolic acid-chitosan derivatives exhibit improved physicochemical properties, such as enhanced water solubility, thermal stability, rheological properties, and crystallinity, through grafting techniques. Moreover, these derivatives demonstrate significantly enhanced antibacterial and antioxidant activities. Through graft modification, phenolic acid-chitosan derivatives offer promising applications in food preservation for diverse food products, including fruits, vegetables, meat, and aquatic products. Their ability to improve the preservation and quality of these food items makes them an appealing option for the food industry. This review intends to provide a deeper understanding of phenolic acid-chitosan derivatives by delving into their synthetic technology, characterization, and application in the realm of food preservation.

Abstract
Glucosamine (Glu) is a cartilage and joint fluid matrix precursor that modulates osteoarthritic joint changes. To improve the enzymatic stability, glucosamine was developed into nanoglucosamine by the ionic gelation method through sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) as cross-linking agent. The optimized mass ratio of Glu:TPP was (3:1) with the particle size 163 ± 25 nm and surface charge -5 mV. Then Sinapic acid (SA) as a natural phenolic acid with strong antioxidant and antimicrobial activities has been grafted onto glucosamine nanoparticles (GluNPs) with grafting efficiency (73 ± 6 %). The covalent insertion of SA was confirmed by UV-Vis, FTIR, 1HNMR, XRD, and FESEM analyses and the other physicochemical properties were also characterized. SA-g-GluNPs showed spherical shape with a mean diameter of 255 ± 20 nm and zeta potential +16 mV. The in vitro release profile of SA-g-GluNPs exhibited the sustained and pH-dependent drug release property. SA-g-GluNPs had a more pronounced effect on reducing the elevated levels of LPS-induced oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory cytokines than free SA in the human chondrocyte C28/I2 cell line. Furthermore, the antibacterial properties against E. coli and S. aureus were also improved by SA-g-GluNPs. This study demonstrated the potential of phenolic acid grafted GluNPs in therapeutic drug applications for chondroprotection and food industries.

Abstract
Phenolic acids are commonly used as food biological preservatives. Grafting phenolic acids onto polysaccharides could effectively enhance their biological activities and environmental stability to varying degrees. However, grafting methods and raw materials could affect the physical properties and biological activities of the phenolic acid-grafted polysaccharides. In this study, caffeic acid (CA) and gallic acid (GA) were grafted onto oat β-glucan (OG) and hydrolyzed oat β-glucan (OGH) through N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole-mediated (CDI) and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride coupling N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) methods. Graft modification decreased the crystallinity and thermal stability of the conjugates, but retained good bioactivities for the conjugates. The antioxidant and bacteriostatic activities of the conjugates prepared by the EDC method were better than those of the CDI method, and the OGH-conjugates showed better biological activities than OG-conjugates. EDC-GAOGH showed best DPPH (89.78%) and ABTS (92.32%) scavenging activities. The inhibitory effect of EDC-GAOGH on Escherichia coli was significantly better than that of EDC-CAOGH, but for Staphylococcus aureus, the results are opposite, which indicating that different phenolic acid grafting products have different inhibitory effects on pathogenic microbes. In general, grafting phenolic acids onto OGH using EDC method is an effective strategy for preparing food biological preservative.

Abstract
Polyphenols and polysaccharides are very important natural products with special physicochemical properties and extensive biological activities. Recently, polyphenol-polysaccharide conjugates have been synthesized to overcome the limitations of polysaccharides and broaden their application range. Grafted copolymers are produced through chemical coupling, enzyme-mediated, and free radical-mediated methods, among which the free radical-induced grafting reaction is the most cost-effective, ecofriendly, safe, and plausible approach. Here, we review the grafting reactions of polysaccharides mediated by free radicals with various bioactive polyphenols, such as gallic acid (GA), ferulic acid (FA), and catechins. A detailed introduction of the methods and their mechanisms for free radical-mediated grafting is given. Structural characterization methods of the graft products, including thin-layer chromatography (TLC), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) are introduced. Furthermore, the biological properties of polyphenol-polysaccharide conjugates are also presented, including antioxidant, antibacterial, antidiabetic, and neuroprotection activities, etc. Moreover, the potential applications of polyphenol-polysaccharide conjugates are described. Finally, the challenges and research prospects of graft products are summarized.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS), a bio-renewable natural material, has the potential to be utilized as a biopolymer for food packaging films (PFs)/coatings. However, its low solubility in dilute acid solutions and poor antioxidant and antimicrobial activities limit its application in PFs/coatings. To address these restrictions, chemical modification of CS has garnered increasing interest, with graft copolymerization being the most extensively used method. Phenolic acids (PAs) as natural small molecules are used as excellent candidates for CS grafting. This work focuses on the progress of CS grafted PA (CS-g-PA) based films, introducing the chemistry and methods of preparing CS-g-PA, particularly the effects of different PAs grafting on the properties of CS films. In addition, this work discusses the application of different CS-g-PA functionalized PFs/coatings for food preservation. It is concluded that the food preservation capability of CS-based films/coatings can be improved by modifying the properties of CS-based films through PA grafting.

Abstract
Over the last years, polysaccharides have been linked to antioxidant effects using both in vitro chemical and biological models. The reported structures, claimed to act as antioxidants, comprise chitosan, pectic polysaccharides, glucans, mannoproteins, alginates, fucoidans, and many others of all type of biological sources. The structural features linked to the antioxidant action include the polysaccharide charge, molecular weight, and the occurrence of non-carbohydrate substituents. The establishment of structure/function relationships can be, however, biased by secondary phenomena that tailor polysaccharides behavior in antioxidant systems. In this sense, this review confronts some basic concepts of polysaccharides chemistry with the current claim of carbohydrates as antioxidants. It critically discusses how the fine structure and properties of polysaccharides can define polysaccharides as antioxidants. Polysaccharides antioxidant action is highly dependent on their solubility, sugar ring structure, molecular weight, occurrence of positive or negatively charged groups, protein moieties and covalently linked phenolic compounds. However, the occurrence of phenolic compounds and protein as contaminants leads to misleading results in methodologies often used for screening and characterization purposes, as well as in vivo models. Despite falling in the concept of antioxidants, the role of polysaccharides must be well defined according with the matrices where they are involved.

Abstract
Chitosan is a bio-renewable natural polymeric material. The antibacterial and antioxidant activity of chitosan can be enhanced by grafting with phenolic acids to further expand its application in food. Therefore, this paper focuses on reviewing the structure, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities and their mechanisms with phenolic acid-g-CS, evaluating its cytotoxicity, and describing its application in various food preservation. In general, different reaction mechanisms of phenolic acid-g-CS synthesis lead to different product structures. Compared to chitosan, phenolic acid-g-chitosan exhibited enhanced antibacterial and antioxidant activities. The toxicity assessment showed that phenolic acid-g-CS is not cytotoxic. Moreover, phenolic acid-g-CS has been applied to a variety of food products such as fruits, vegetables and meat with good results. Overall, this review provides a certain reference for subsequent researchers to design phenolic acid-g-CS more rationally and for the subsequent development of phenolic acid-g-CS in food preservation.

Abstract
Collagen, a fibrous protein with triple-helical structure, is a good film-forming substrate for food packaging films because collagen films show advantages of biodegradability, high mechanical strength and good water resistance. However, collagen films lack functional activities, which may limit their applications in the field of active packaging. In this work, phenolic acid-grafted-chitosan was blended with collagen to improve the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of collagen films. Gallic acid (GA), ferulic acid (FA) and caffeic acid (CA) were respectively grafted onto chitosan, and the physical properties and functional activities of the collagen/phenolic acids-g-chitosan (CGC, CFC and CCC) films were compared. The prepared films presented varying degrees of yellow color, and exhibited significantly improved UV light blocking capacity, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties due to the function of phenolic acid. Moreover, compared with collagen/chitosan (CC) film, CGC, CFC and CCC films showed higher mechanical strength (69.08-73.79 MPa), higher thermal denaturation temperature (69.4-71.2 °C), and lower water vapor permeability values (2.64-2.98 × 10-12 g m-1 s-1 Pa-1). The properties of collagen/ phenolic acids-g-chitosan films were greatly affected by the type of phenolic acid grafted. CGC film had the best antioxidant property as well as the best mechanical property, thermostability, UV light and water vapor blocking capacity.

Abstract
In recent years, the antimicrobial activity of chitosan-based hydrogels has been at the forefront of research in wound healing and the prevention of medical device contamination. Anti-infective therapy is a serious challenge given the increasing prevalence of bacterial resistance to antibiotics as well as their ability to form biofilms. Unfortunately, hydrogel resistance and biocompatibility do not always meet the demands of biomedical applications. As a result, the development of double-network hydrogels could be a solution to these issues. This review discusses the most recent techniques for creating double-network chitosan-based hydrogels with improved structural and functional properties. The applications of these hydrogels are also discussed in terms of tissue recovery after injuries, wound infection prevention, and biofouling of medical devices and surfaces for pharmaceutical and medical applications.

Abstract
Wild, edible plants have received increasing attention as an important complement to cultivate vegetables, as they represent an easily accessible source of nutrients, mineral elements, and antioxidants. In this study, the tender stems and leaves of Gonostegia hirta, an edible species for which only scarce data are available in the literature, are thoroughly evaluated for their nutritional profile, chemical characterization, and antioxidant activity. Being considered as an underexploited, potentially edible plant, the nutritional composition of Gonostegia hirta was identified, and several beneficial compounds were highlighted: sugars, potassium, calcium, organic acids, fatty acids, phenolics, and flavonoids. A total of 418 compounds were identified by metabolomic analysis, including phenolic acids, flavonoids, amino acids, lipids, organic acids, terpenoids, alkaloids, nucleotides, tannins, lignans, and coumarin. The plant sample was found to have good antioxidant capacities, presented by DPPH, FRAP, ABTS+, hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity, and its resistance to the superoxide anion radical test. In general, Gonostegia hirta has a good nutritional and phytochemical composition. The health benefits of Gonostegia hirta as a vegetable and herbal medicine is important for both a modern diet and use in medication.

Abstract
This work provides the first description of the synthesis and characterization of water-soluble chitosan (Cs) derivatives based on the conjugation of both diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) and catechol groups onto the Cs backbone (Cs-DC) in order to obtain a Cs derivative with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The degree of substitution [DS (%)] was 35.46% for DEAE and 2.53% for catechol, determined by spectroscopy. Changes in the molecular packing due to the incorporation of both pendant groups were described by X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. For Cs, the crystallinity index was 59.46% and the maximum decomposition rate appeared at 309.3 °C, while for Cs-DC, the values corresponded to 16.98% and 236.4 °C, respectively. The incorporation of DEAE and catechol groups also increases the solubility of the polymer at pH > 7 without harming the antimicrobial activity displayed by the unmodified polymer. The catecholic derivatives increase the radical scavenging activity in terms of the half-maximum effective concentration (EC50). An EC50 of 1.20 μg/mL was found for neat hydrocaffeic acid (HCA) solution, while for chitosan-catechol (Cs-Ca) and Cs-DC solutions, concentrations equivalent to free HCA of 0.33 and 0.41 μg/mL were required, respectively. Cell culture results show that all Cs derivatives have low cytotoxicity, and Cs-DC showed the ability to reduce the activity of reactive oxygen species by 40% at concentrations as low as 4 μg/mL. Polymeric nanoparticles of Cs derivatives with a hydrodynamic diameter (Dh) of around 200 nm, unimodal size distributions, and a negative ζ-potential were obtained by ionotropic gelation and coated with hyaluronic acid in aqueous suspension, providing the multifunctional nanoparticles with higher stability and a narrower size distribution.

Abstract
Ultrasonication (US)-assisted Fenton-system (US-Fenton) with different US time was developed for synthesizing chitosan (CS)-ferulic acid (FA) conjugates. The optimal US-Fenton for a suitable time was selected for preparing a film with CS-FA conjugate and its structural, functional, rheological, and physical properties were also investigated. Compared with Fenton-system, US-Fenton enhanced the grafting ratio of the conjugates, which increased firstly and then decreased as US time. The conjugate obtained by US-Fenton for 1 min (FUS1) possessed the highest grafting ratio (121.28 mg FA/g) and its grafting time was also shortened from 12 h to 1 min contrasted with Fenton grafted method. Structural characterization results showed that FA was conjugated on CS via ester and amide bonds with decreased crystallinity. Scanning electron microscopy and molecular weight analysis indicated that the degradation degree of CS-FA conjugates increased with US time. The DPPH and ABTS radical-scavenging activities of FUS1 were the closest to ascorbic acid, and it also showed the best antibacterial effect among the test conjugates. Accordingly, FUS1 was selected to obtain the film for contrasting with CS film. FUS1 film solution exhibited a decreased viscosity. In comparison to CS film, UV transmittance of FUS1 film approached zero, and its moisture, oxygen, and carbon dioxide permeabilities significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Moreover, its water solubility and tensile strength increased by 58.09% and 25.72% than those of CS film, respectively. Therefore, US-Fenton for 1 min could be a promising method for efficiently preparing active food package materials and FUS1 film possessed broad application prospects.

Abstract
With incidence of antimicrobial resistance rising globally, there is a continuous need for development of new antimicrobial molecules. Phenolic compounds having a versatile scaffold that allows for a broad range of chemical additions; they also exhibit potent antimicrobial activities which can be enhanced significantly through functionalization. Synthetic routes such as esterification, phosphorylation, hydroxylation or enzymatic conjugation may increase the antimicrobial activity of compounds and reduce minimal concentrations needed. With potent action mechanisms interfering with bacterial cell wall synthesis, DNA replication or enzyme production, phenolics can target multiple sites in bacteria, leading to a much higher sensitivity of cells towards these natural compounds. The current review summarizes some of the most important knowledge on functionalization of natural phenolic compounds and the effects on their antimicrobial activity.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is involved in maintaining homeostasis of the body, and an in-depth study of its mechanism of action is beneficial for the prevention of chronic illnesses. This study aimed to investigate the protective mechanism of yam polysaccharide (CYP) against H2O2-induced oxidative damage by an RNA-seq technique. The expression of genes and the function of the genome in the process of oxidative damage by H2O2 in IEC-6 cells were explored through transcriptomic analysis. The results illustrated that H2O2 damaged cells by promoting cell differentiation and affecting tight junction proteins, and CYP could achieve cell protection via restraining the activation of the MAPK signaling pathway. RNA-seq analysis revealed that H2O2 may damage cells by promoting the IL-17 signaling pathway and the MAPK signaling pathway and so forth. The Western blot showed that the pretreatment of CYP could restrain the activation of the MAPK signaling pathway. In summary, this study demonstrates that the efficacy of CYP in modulating the MAPK signaling pathway against excessive oxidative stress, with a corresponding preventive role against injury to the intestinal barrier. It provides a new perspective for the understanding of the preventive role of CYP on intestinal damage. These findings suggest that CYP could be used as oxidation protectant and may have potential application prospects in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
In this study, caffeic acid (CA) and chlorogenic acid (CGA) were incorporated onto chitosan (CS) using free radical grafting initiated by a hydrogen peroxide/ascorbic acid (H2O2/Vc) redox system. The structural properties of the CA (CA-g-CS) and CGA (CGA-g-CS) derivatives were characterized by UV-Vis absorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and thermal stability analysis. Then, the antioxidant and antibacterial properties were evaluated, and the effect of CGA-g-CS on the postharvest quality of Saimaiti apricot was studied. It proved that phenolic acids were successfully grafted onto the CS. The grafting ratios of CA-g-CS and CGA-g-CS were 126.21 mg CAE/g and 148.94 mg CGAE/g. The antioxidation and antibacterial activities of CGA-g-CS were better than those of CA-g-CS. The MICs of CGA-g-CS against E. coli, S. aureus, and B. subtilis were 2, 1, and 2 mg/mL. The inhibitory zones of 20 mg/mL CGA-g-CS against the three bacteria were 19.16 ± 0.35, 16.33 ± 0.91, and 16.24 ± 0.05 mm. The inhibitory effects of 0.5% CGA-g-CS on the firmness, weight loss, SSC, TA, relative conductivity, and respiration rate of the apricot were superior. Our results suggest that CGA-g-CS can be potentially used as an edible coating material to preserve apricots.

Abstract
Over the past thirty years, research has shown the huge potential of chitosan in biomedical applications such as drug delivery, tissue engineering and regeneration, cancer therapy, and antimicrobial treatments, among others. One of the major advantages of this interesting polysaccharide is its modifiability, which facilitates its use in tailor-made applications. In this way, the molecular structure of chitosan has been conjugated with multiple molecules to modify its mechanical, biological, or chemical properties. Here, we review the conjugation of chitosan with some bioactive molecules: hydroxycinnamic acids (HCAs); since these derivatives have been probed to enhance some of the biological effects of chitosan and to fine-tune its characteristics for its application in the biomedical field. First, the main characteristics of chitosan and HCAs are presented; then, the currently employed conjugation strategies between chitosan and HCAs are described; and, finally, the studied biomedical applications of these derivatives are discussed to present their limitations and advantages, which could lead to proximal therapeutic uses.

Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 217:1012-1026. [PMID: 35926669 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.07.222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Revised: 07/14/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
In this study, chitosan (CS) with different molecular weights was functionalized with protocatechuic acid (PA) by free-radical grafting reaction, and used for the inhibition of lipid oxidation and the enhancement of stability of β-carotene in Pickering emulsions. The order of grafting ratio of PA in CS-PA conjugates was CS400 (400 kDa CS) > CS200 (200 kDa CS) > CS100 (100 kDa CS). UV-vis, FT-IR and 1H NMR spectra proved that PA was covalently bonded to CS through amino and ester linkages. Compared with native CS, three CS-PA conjugates exhibited reduced crystallinity and thermal stability and improved antioxidant activity, with a molecular weight-dependent relationship. Besides, CS-PA-conjugate particles formed by ionic gelling procedure were spherically shaped and homogeneously dispersed, which substantially improved the stability of β-carotene in Pickering emulsions than CS particles under ultraviolet irradiation, natural light exposure and heat treatment, and the retention rates of β-carotene were in the following order: CS200-PA- > CS400-PA- > CS100-PA-conjugate particles. Furthermore, the oxidation stability of Pickering emulsions fabricated by CS-PA-conjugate particles was also higher than that of CS particles. These results will provide valuable information for the application of CS-PA conjugates to protect bioactive components and inhibit lipid oxidation in emulsion systems.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to improve the antibacterial activities of chitosan via N-alkyl substitution using 1-bromohexadecane. Mono and di substitution (Mono-NHD-Ch and Di-NHD-Ch) were prepared and characterized using FT-IR, HNMR, TGA, DSC, and SEM. Elemental analysis shows an increase in the C/N ratio from 5.45 for chitosan to 8.63 for Mono-NHD-Ch and 10.46 for Di-NHD-Ch. The antibacterial properties were evaluated against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus cereus. In the examined microorganisms, the antibacterial properties of the novel alkyl derivatives increased substantially higher than chitosan. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Mono-NHD-Ch and Di-NHD-Ch was perceived at 50 μg/mL against tested microorganisms, except for B. cereus. The MTT test was used to determine the cytotoxicity of the produced materials, which proved their safety to fibroblast cells. The findings suggest that the new N-Alkyl chitosan derivatives might be used as antibacterial alternatives to pure chitosan in wound infection treatments.

Abstract
The development of new materials for food packaging applications is necessary to reduce the excessive use of disposable plastics and their environmental impact. Biodegradable polymers represent an alternative means of mitigating the problem. To add value to biodegradable materials and to enhance food preservation, the incorporation of active compounds into the polymer matrix is an affordable strategy. Phenolic acids are plant metabolites that can be found in multiple plant extracts and exhibit antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Compared with other natural active compounds, such as essential oils, phenolic acids do not present a high sensorial impact while exhibiting similar minimal inhibitory concentrations against different bacteria. This study summarizes and discusses recent studies about the potential of both phenolic acids/plant extracts and biodegradable polymers as active food packaging materials, their properties, interactions, and the factors that could affect their antimicrobial efficiency. The molecular structure of phenolic acids greatly affects their potential antioxidant and antimicrobial capacity, as well as their specific interactions with polymer matrices and food substrates. These interactions, in turn, can lead to plasticizing or cross-linking effects. In the present study, the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of different biodegradable films with phenolic acids have been described, as well as the main factors affecting the active properties of these films as useful materials for active packaging development. More studies applying these active materials in real foods are required.
