Abstract
Lactoferrin (LF) with various biological functions demonstrates great application potential. However, its application was restricted by its poor gelation and instability. The aim of this work was to explore the effect of microbial transglutaminase (MTGase) and Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide (TP) on the functional properties of LF. The formation of a self-supporting LF gel could be induced by MTGase through generating covalent crosslinks between the LF protein molecules. Meanwhile, TP was introduced into the gel system to improve the strength of LF-TP composite gels by enhancing non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bond and electrostatic interactions during gel formation. Additionally, the LF-TP composite gel exhibited outstanding functional characteristics such as gastrointestinal digestive stability and antioxidant property. This work clarified the mechanism on MTGase and TP-mediated modification of lactoferrin, offered a novel strategy to increase the functional characteristics of LF, and enlarged the application range of LF and TP.

Abstract
Immobilized enzymes are one of the most common tools used in enzyme engineering, as they can substantially reduce the cost of enzyme isolation and use. However, efficient catalysis of solid substrates using immobilized enzymes is challenging, hydrolysis of insoluble cellulose by immobilized cellulases is a typical example of this problem. In this study, inspired by bees and honeycombs, we prepared gelatin-modified cellulase (BEE) and gelatin hydrogels (HONEYCOMB) to achieve reversible recycling versus release of cellulase through temperature-responsive changes in the triple-stranded helix-like interactions between BEE and HONEYCOMB. At elevated temperatures, BEE was released from HONEYCOMB and participated in hydrolytic saccharification. After 24 h, the glucose yields of both the free enzyme and BEE reached the same level. When the temperature was decreased, BEE recombined with HONEYCOMB to facilitate the effective separation and recycling of BEE from the system. The enzymatic system retained >70 % activity after four reuse cycles. In addition, this system showed good biocompatibility and environmental safety. This method increases the mass transfer capacity and enables easy recovery of immobilized cellulase, thereby serving as a valuable strategy for the immobilization of other enzymes.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of two forms of curdlan, namely curdlan thermoreversibility (CT) and curdlan powder (CP), on in vitro digestion and viscoelastic properties of myofibrillar protein (MP). As the level of curdlan (0.1-0.5%) increased, pepsin digestibility and pancreatin digestibility significantly decreased, active sulfhydryl group also decreased, while surface hydrophobicity and total sulfhydryl groups increased. Meanwhile, curdlan enhanced the secondary and tertiary structures of MP. As the pepsin digest, α-helix gradually transformed into random coil. Furthermore, the viscosity, storage modulus (G") and loss modulus (G') increased with the CT or CP addition. After in vitro digestion, the viscoelasticity significantly decreased with a dose-response. Molecular dynamics simulations showed hydrogen bond formation (2.86 on average) between MP and curdlan contributing to reduced radius of gyration and solvent accessible surface area. Overall, this study highlighted curdlan as a promising ingredient to modulate structural properties and digestibility of MP, especially in pre-hydrated (CT) groups.

Abstract
In this work, lactoferrin (LF)-chitosan (CS) composite hydrogels with good loading capacity of thermosensitive bioactive substances were successfully obtained by microbial transglutaminase (MTG)-induced cross-linking. We evaluated the rheological, textural, and microstructural characteristics of the composite hydrogels under different conditions. The results demonstrated that the concentrations of LF and CS as well as the amount of MTG could regulate the textural properties, rheological properties, and water holding capability. The results of FTIR and fluorescence spectroscopy indicated that the main interactions within the composite gel were hydrogen and isopeptide bonds. Additionally, in vitro digestion simulation results verified that riboflavin kept stable in stomach due to the protection of LF-CS composite hydrogels and was released in small intestine. These results suggested that thermosensitive bioactive substance could be encapsulated and delivered by the LF-CS composite hydrogel, which could be applied in lots of potential applications in functional food as a new material.

Abstract
Tissue engineering (TE) demands scaffolds that have the necessary resistance to withstand the mechanical stresses once implanted in our body, as well as excellent biocompatibility. Hydrogels are postulated as interesting materials for this purpose, especially those made from biopolymers. In this study, the microstructure and rheological performance, as well as functional and biological properties of chitosan and collagen hydrogels (CH/CG) crosslinked with different coupling agents, both natural such as d-Fructose (F), genipin (G) and transglutaminase (T) and synthetic, using a combination of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride with N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) will be assessed. FTIR tests were carried out to determine if the proposed crosslinking reactions for each crosslinking agent occurred as expected, obtaining positive results in this aspect. Regarding the characterization of the properties of each system, two main trends were observed, from which it could be established that crosslinking with G and EDC-NHS turned out to be more effective and beneficial than with the other two crosslinking agents, producing significant improvements with respect to the base CH/CG hydrogel. In addition, in vitro tests demonstrated the potential application in TE of these systems, especially for those crosslinked with G, T and EDC-NHS.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of oxidation on the physicochemical properties of gelatin and gelatin gels. Porcine skin gelatin was oxidized with different concentrations of H2O2 (0-30 mM). Upon oxidation of gelatin, a significant modification of amino acid residues including glycine, proline, hydroxyproline, and hydroxylysine occurred. Zeta-potential, ordered secondary structure and the fraction of triple-helix decreased, while particle size and surface hydrophobicity increased. Gels made from oxidized gelatin showed a looser network structure indicated by scanning electron microscope, and the gels had a weakened mechanical strength and water-holding as compared to non-oxidized gelatin gels. Based on these results, a mechanism of how oxidation affects the gelatin gel properties was proposed: Oxidation-induced increase of hydrophobicity and decrease of net charges promoted aggregation between gelatin molecules, thereby limiting the formation of triple-helix, which subsequently leads to a loose network structure and eventually a weakened gel strength and water-holding capacity.

Abstract
Although fish gelatin has become a research hotspot in recent years, researchers and manufacturers are still looking for high-quality sources of fish galatin to meet the commercial demand for safer gelatin.became This study aimed to evaluate the impact of seasonal variation and farming systems on the properties of gelatin extracted from Nile tilapia scales. Gelatin extracted from farmed tilapia had lowest impurities, higher clarity as well as desirable color characteristics (L* = 65.95 and a* = -0.33). The protein and fat composition of Wild (91.00 ± 0.00c) and 1.94 ± 0.05a respectively were higher than farmed gelatin of protein (91.00 ± 0.00c) and fat (0.84 ± 0.08b) but gelatin from the farmed type were clearer (98.30 ± 0.28a) than wild type (94.60 ± 0.28b). In addition, the XRD analysis confirmed its amorphous structure (2θ = 11°, 21°. 29°, and 31°). The gelatin extracted from wild tilapia showed an average yield of 1.98 % and good physicochemical and functional properties. Furthermore, FTIR indicated a strong bond positioned in the amide I region (1650.88 cm-1) of the wild tilapia gelatin. Partial Least Square (PLS) confirmed that viscosity is positively correlated with melting temperature upon a unit change in gelatin yield. This work highlights the significance of farming systems and seasonal variation in extraction conditions and great parameter to comprehensively navigate the functional, biochemical, and physical properties of Nile tilapia gelatin for broadening both food and non-food industrial appliactions.

Effects of Transglutaminase Concentration and Drying Method on Encapsulation of Lactobacillus plantarum in Gelatin-Based Hydrogel. Molecules 2023; 28:8070.

Abstract
Lactobacillus plantarum is a kind of probiotic that benefits the host by regulating the gut microbiota, but it is easily damaged when passing through the gastrointestinal tract, hindering its ability to reach the destination and reducing its utilization value. Encapsulation is a promising strategy for solving this problem. In this study, transglutaminase (TGase)-crosslinked gelatin (GE)/sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP) hydrogels were used to encapsulate L. plantarum. The effects of TGase concentration and drying method on the physiochemical properties of the hydrogels were determined. The results showed that at a TGase concentration of 9 U/gGE, the hardness, chewiness, energy storage modulus, and apparent viscosity of the hydrogel encapsulation system were maximized. This concentration produced more high-energy isopeptide bonds, strengthening the interactions between molecules, forming a more stable three-dimensional network structure. The survival rate under the simulated gastrointestinal conditions and storage stability of L. plantarum were improved at this concentration. The thermal stability of the encapsulation system dried via microwave vacuum freeze drying (MFD) was slightly higher than that when dried via freeze drying (FD). The gel structure was more stable, and the activity of L. plantarum decreased more slowly during the storage period when dried using MFD. This research provides a theoretical basis for the development of encapsulation technology of probiotics.

Abstract
The significant concerns associated with the widespread use of petroleum-based plastic materials have prompted substantial research on and development of active food packaging materials. Even though fish gelatin-based films are appealing as active food packaging materials, they present practical production challenges. Therefore, this study aimed to develop an edible film using Ficus carica L. leaf extract (FLE), as it is affordable, accessible, and has superoxide anion radical scavenging action. This edible film was produced by adding FLE to mackerel skin gelatin at varied concentrations (2.5-10% w/w). The results showed that adding FLE to gelatin films significantly affected the tensile strength (TS), elongation at break (EAB), transmittance and transparency, solubility, water vapor permeability (WVP), antioxidant activity, and antibacterial activity. Among all the samples, the most promising result was obtained for the edible film with FLE 10%, resulting in TS, EAB, solubility, WVP, antioxidant activity, and antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli results of 2.74 MPa, 372.82%, 36.20%, 3.96 × 10-11 g/msPa, 45.49%, 27.27 mm, and 25.10 mm, respectively. The study's overall findings showed that fish gelatin-based films incorporated with FLE are promising eco-friendly, biodegradable, and sustainable active packaging materials.

Abstract
Sustainable food packaging is a necessary element to ensure the success of a food system, the accomplishment of which is weighed in terms of quality retention and ensured products safety. Irrespective of the raised environmental concerns regarding petroleum-based packaging materials, a sustainable analysis and a lab to land assessment should be a priority to eliminate similar fates of new material. Functionalized bio-based hydrogels are one of the smartest packaging inventions that are expected to revolutionize the food packaging industry. Although in this review, the focus relies on recent developments in the sustainable bio-based hydrogel packaging materials, natural biopolymers such as proteins and polysaccharides from which hydrogels could be obtained, the challenges encountered in hydrogel-based packaging materials and the future prospects of hydrogel-based food packaging materials are also discussed. Moreover, the need for 'Life Cycle Assessment' (LCA), stress on certifications and a sustainable waste management system is also suggested which can bring both food and packaging into the same recycling bins.

Abstract
This study aims to elucidate the mechanism behind the deterioration in the gel properties of collagen gel resulting from high-temperature treatment. The results show that the high level of triple-helix junction zones and related lateral stacking contribute to the dense and orderly collagen gel network with high gel strength and storage modulus. The analysis of the molecular properties of heated collagen shows that high-temperature treatment leads to serious denaturation and degradation of collagen, resulting in the formation of gel precursor solutions composed of low-molecular-weight peptides. The short chains in the precursor solution are not easy to nucleation and can limit the growth of triple-helix cores. To conclude, the decrease in triple-helix renaturation and crystallization abilities of peptide components is the reason for the deterioration in the gel properties of collagen gel induced by high temperature. The findings presented in this study add the understanding of texture deterioration in high-temperature processed collagen-based meat products and related products, and provide a theoretical basis for establishing methods to overcome the production dilemma faced by these products.

Abstract
Generally, gelatin was irreversibly cross-linked by chemical reagents to improve its water-resistance. However, few chemical reagents meet both the requirements of high cross-inking efficiency and tunable degradation. Here a reversible cross-linker, disulphide-containing bis-succinimide, was synthesized and used to control the cross-linking and degradation of edible gelatin film. Mixture of the gelatin and cross-linker for 120 min generated gelatin films that could preserve their morphology in 37 ℃ warm water for above 40 days. The gelatin film changed its microstructure from net to tightness after the cross-linking, thus facilitating the embedding of the targeted molecule into the gelatin material. The degradation of the cross-linked gelatin film and the release of its inclusion could be controlled by biocompatible glutathione. This work provides a good method for preparing modified gelatin with promising water-resistance, good biocompatibility, and tunable degradation for food/biomedical engineering applications.

Abstract
In this study, κ-carrageenan(κC) and Transglutaminase (TG) were used to modify fish gelatin (FG). Three types of modified gelatin groups FG-κC, FG-TG and FG-κC-TG were prepared. The results showed that the gel strength and textural properties of FG gels were greatly enhanced by κC modification and κC-TG complex modification, whilst pure TG modification weakened the gelling properties. And the pure 0.1 % κC modified FG had the highest gel strength and hardness, respectively. Rheological behavior showed that the complex modified FG samples had the highest viscosity, gelling points, melting points and G'∞. Fourier infrared spectra and LF-NMR analysis showed that κC and κC-TG modification respectively improved the contents of hydrogen and isopeptide that decreased the water mobility but stabilized the helical structure of gelatin gels. Fluorescence intensity showed that three types of modification decreased fluorescence intensity. While, the formation of aggregates and denser gel networks decreased in vitro digestibility of FG.

Abundant tannic acid modified gelatin/sodium alginate biocomposite hydrogels with high toughness, antifreezing, antioxidant and antibacterial properties. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 309:120702.

Abstract
The acidity of high tannic acid (TA) content solution can destroy the structure of protein, such as gelatin (G). This causes a big challenge to introduce abundant TA into the G-based hydrogels. Here, the G-based hydrogel system with abundant TA as hydrogen bonds provider was constructed by a "protective film" strategy. The protective film around the composite hydrogel was first formed by the chelation of sodium alginate (SA) and Ca2+. Subsequently, abundant TA and Ca2+ were successively introduced into the hydrogel system by immersing method. This strategy effectively protected the structure of the designed hydrogel. After treatment with 0.3 w/v TA and 0.06 w/v Ca2+ solutions, the tensile modulus, elongation at break and toughness of G/SA hydrogel increased about 4-, 2-, and 6-fold, respectively. Besides, G/SA-TA/Ca2+ hydrogels exhibited good water retention, anti-freezing, antioxidant, antibacterial properties and low hemolysis ratio. Cell experiments showed that G/SA-TA/Ca2+ hydrogels possessed good biocompatibility and could promote cell migration. Therefore, G/SA-TA/Ca2+ hydrogels are expected to be used in the field of biomedical engineering. The strategy proposed in this work also provides a new idea for improving the properties of other protein-based hydrogels.

Abstract
Nowadays, hydrogels-based microneedles (MNs) have attracted a great interest owing to their outstanding qualities for biomedical applications. For the fabrication of hydrogels-based microneedles as tissue engineering scaffolds and drug delivery carriers, various biomaterials have been tested. They are required to feature tunable physiochemical properties, biodegradability, biocompatibility, nonimmunogenicity, high drug loading capacity, and sustained drug release. Among biomaterials, human proteins are the most ideal biomaterials for fabrication of hydrogels-based MNs; however, they are mechanically weak and poorly processible. To the best of the knowledge, there are no reports of xeno-free human protein-based MNs so far. Here, human albumin-based hydrogels and microneedles for tissue engineering and drug delivery by using relatively new processible human serum albumin methacryloyl (HSAMA) are engineered. The resultant HSAMA hydrogels display tunable mechanical properties, biodegradability, and good biocompatibility. Moreover, the xeno-free HSAMA microneedles display a sustained drug release profile and significant mechanical strength to penetrate the model skin. In vitro, they also show good biocompatibility and anticancer efficacy. Sustainable processible human albumin-based biomaterials may be employed as a xeno-free platform in vivo for tissue engineering and drug delivery in clinical trials in the future.

Abstract
Food hydrogels are biopolymeric materials made from food-grade biopolymers with gelling properties (proteins and polysaccharides) and a 3D network capable of incorporating large amounts of water. They have sparked considerable interest because of their potential and broad application range in the biomedical and pharmaceutical sectors. However, hydrogel research in the field of food science is still limited. This knowledge gap provides numerous opportunities for implementing their unique properties, such as high water-holding capacity, moderated texture, compatibility with other substances, cell biocompatibility, biodegradability, and high resemblance to living tissues, for the development of novel, functional food matrices. For that reason, this article includes a bibliometric analysis characterizing research trends in food protein-polysaccharide hydrogels (over the last ten years). Additionally, it characterizes the most recent developments in hydrogel induction methods and the most recent application progress of hydrogels as food matrices as carriers for the targeted delivery of bioactive compounds. Finally, this article provides a future perspective on the need to evaluate the feasibility of using plant-based proteins and polysaccharides to develop food matrices that protect nutrients, including bioactive substances, throughout processing, storage, and digestion until they reach the specific targeted area of the digestive system.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a worldwide chronic inflammatory disease, where surgical treatment still shows an uncertain prognosis. To break through the dilemma of periodontal treatment, we fabricated a three-dimensional (3D) multilayered scaffold by stacking and fixing electrospun polycaprolactone/gelatin (PCL/Gel) fibrous membranes. The biomaterial displayed good hydrophilic and mechanical properties. Besides, we found human periodontal ligament stem cell (hPDLSC) adhesion and proliferation on it. The following scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cytoskeleton staining results proved the guiding function of fibers to hPDLSCs. Then, we further analyzed periodontal regeneration-related proteins and mRNA expression between groups. In vivo results in a rat acute periodontal defect model confirmed that the topographic cues of materials could directly guide cellular orientation and might provide the prerequisite for further differentiation. In the aligned scaffold group, besides new bone regeneration, we also observed that angular concentrated fiber regeneration in the root surface of the defect is similar to the normal periodontal tissue. To sum up, we have constructed electrospun membrane-based 3D biological scaffolds, which provided a new treatment strategy for patients undergoing periodontal surgery.

Abstract
In order to solve the increasingly serious environmental problems caused by plastic-based packaging, carrageenan-based films are drawing much attentions in food packaging applications, due to low cost, biodegradability, compatibility, and film-forming property. The purpose of this article is to present a comprehensive review of recent developments in carrageenan-based films, including fabrication strategies, physical and chemical properties and novel food packaging applications. Carrageenan can be extracted from red algae mainly by hydrolysis, ultrasonic-assisted and microwave-assisted extraction, and the combination of multiple extraction methods will be future trends in carrageenan extraction methods. Carrageenan can form homogeneous film-forming solutions and fabricate films mainly by direct coating, solvent casting and electrospinning, and mechanism of film formation was discussed in detail. Due to the inherent limitations of the pure carrageenan film, physical and chemical properties of carrageenan films were enhanced by incorporation with other compounds. Therefore, carrageenan-based films can be widely used for extending the shelf life of food and monitoring the food freshness by inhibiting microbial growth, reducing moisture loss and the respiration, etc. This article will provide useful guidelines for further research on carrageenan-based films.

Abstract
Nowadays, there are still numerous challenges for well-known biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering (TE), wound healing and controlled drug delivery, which must be faced and solved. Hydrogels have been proposed as excellent candidates for these applications, as they have promising properties for the mentioned applications, including biocompatibility, biodegradability, great absorption capacity and tunable mechanical properties. However, depending on the material or the manufacturing method, the resulting hydrogel may not be up to the specific task for which it is designed, thus there are different approaches proposed to enhance hydrogel performance for the requirements of the application in question. The main purpose of this review article was to summarize the most recent trends of hydrogel technology, going through the most used polymeric materials and the most popular hydrogel synthesis methods in recent years, including different strategies of enhancing hydrogels’ properties, such as cross-linking and the manufacture of composite hydrogels. In addition, the secondary objective of this review was to briefly discuss other novel applications of hydrogels that have been proposed in the past few years which have drawn a lot of attention.
