Current and Expected Trends for the Marine Chitin/Chitosan and Collagen Value Chains. Mar Drugs 2023; 21:605. [PMID: 38132926 PMCID: PMC10744996 DOI: 10.3390/md21120605] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 11/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Chitin/chitosan and collagen are two of the most important bioactive compounds, with applications in the pharmaceutical, veterinary, nutraceutical, cosmetic, biomaterials, and other industries. When extracted from non-edible parts of fish and shellfish, by-catches, and invasive species, their use contributes to a more sustainable and circular economy. The present article reviews the scientific knowledge and publication trends along the marine chitin/chitosan and collagen value chains and assesses how researchers, industry players, and end-users can bridge the gap between scientific understanding and industrial applications. Overall, research on chitin/chitosan remains focused on the compound itself rather than its market applications. Still, chitin/chitosan use is expected to increase in food and biomedical applications, while that of collagen is expected to increase in biomedical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and nutritional applications. Sustainable practices, such as the reuse of waste materials, contribute to strengthen both value chains; the identified weaknesses include the lack of studies considering market trends, social sustainability, and profitability, as well as insufficient examination of intellectual property rights. Government regulations, market demand, consumer preferences, technological advancements, environmental challenges, and legal frameworks play significant roles in shaping both value chains. Addressing these factors is crucial for seizing opportunities, fostering sustainability, complying with regulations, and maintaining competitiveness in these constantly evolving value chains.

Salehpour N, Bayatloo MR, Nojavan S. Green hydrophobic maltodextrin nanosponges for magnetic solid-phase extraction of hypothalamic peptides from plasma samples. J Chromatogr A 2023; 1706:464220. [PMID: 37523906 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2023.464220] [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: 04/29/2023] [Revised: 07/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/02/2023]
Abstract
In this work, for the first time, magnetic-phthalated maltodextrin nanosponges (M-PAMDNSs) were synthetized and introduced as efficient and green sorbents. The integration of phthaloyl groups as hydrophobic moieties into networks of maltodextrin nanosponges provided good enrichment for hypothalamic-related peptides (HRPs). The synthesized materials were characterized by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, water contact angle, attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, pH point of zero charge, acid-base titration, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, and vibrating sample magnetometer. Under the optimized conditions (sorbent amount: 5.0 mg, desorption solvent volume and type: 300 µL of methanol: H2O: trifluoroacetic acid, extraction time: 15 min, and desorption time: 10 min), the developed magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) method in combination with HPLC-UV was used as a novel and sensitive analytical method for the determination of HRPs in plasma samples. The proposed MSPE-HPLC-UV method provided good linearity (1.5-500 ng mL-1 R2 ≥ 0.9988), low limits of detection (0.1-0.2 ng mL-1) and quantification (0.4-0.8 ng mL-1), desirable precision (RSD ≤ 8.8%, n ₌ 5), satisfactory enrichment factor (EFs ≥ 66.0), and well relative recoveries (92.8-108.8%). Overall, the established method effectively expanded the analytical potential of MSPE approach for the quantification of HRPs in biological samples.
