Abstract
Traditional vinegars are naturally produced from sugar- or starch-containing raw materials, through alcoholic fermentation followed by acetic fermentation. Fermentation is a spontaneous and complex process involving interactions between various microorganisms. In this study, we produced vinegar using traditional methods from six fruits: rosehip, pear, fig, wild pear, apple, and plum. Bacteria that produce bacterial cellulose (BC) were isolated from these vinegars and identified. In addition, we investigated the properties of BC produced from these bacteria. The strains isolated from vinegars were identified as Gluconobacter oxydans strain MG2022, Acetobacter tropicalis strain MG2022, Acetobacter fabarum strain MG2022, Komagataeibacter saccharivorans strain MG2022, K. saccharivorans strain EG2022, and Acetobacter lovaniensis strain OD2022. In total, 0.83-2.04 g/L BC was produced and the bacterial strain isolated from pear vinegar yielded the most BC. BC produced by the bacterial strain isolated from wild pear vinegar had the highest thermal stability and crystallinity (87.44 %). Overall, this study shows that different fruits contain different BC-producing bacteria in their natural flora and vinegars obtained from fruits can be used in BC production. Also, different BC-producing bacteria can be isolated from different vinegars, and BC produced by these bacteria might have different properties.

Abstract
Biodegradable and sustainable food preservation materials have gained immense global importance to mitigate plastic pollution and environmental impact. Biopolymers like cellulose offer significant advantages for food preservation, including biodegradability and the ability to extend shelf life. Therefore, the present study aims to prepare gallic acid (GA) and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) incorporated methylcellulose (MC) composite films by employing a solvent casting technique. The homogeneous SEM micrographs and FTIR spectra evidenced high compatibility among MC and GA/ZnO NPs. The UV barrier capacity, mechanical properties and surface hydrophobicity are remarkably enhanced by GA/ZnO NPs. However, the water vapour permeability and oxygen permeability of MGZ films were reduced by 49.19 % and 57.75 % respectively. Moreover, the MGZ films demonstrated exceptional antioxidant efficacy (∼94.48 %) and inhibition against food-borne pathogens such as B. subtilis, S. aureus (Gram-positive), E. coli, P. aeruginosa (Gram-negative), and C. albicans fungi. Furthermore, the GA/ZnO NPs extended the shelf life of MGZ coated tomato samples up to 27 days and exhibited controlled microbial growth after the preservation study. These results support the application of MGZ films as suitable and effective coating materials for food packaging applications.

Abstract
Electrospraying for Vitamin C (VC) encapsulation in Chitosan (Cs) nanoparticles was investigated and particle size, zeta potential, loading capacity (LC%) and encapsulation efficiency (EE%) were examined. Cs concentration (1-2% w/v) and voltage (21-25 kV) were varied with VC (0.25-0.75 w/w Cs). Twenty experiments in a face-centered CCD-RSM design were evaluated. ANOVA suggested voltage and Cs concentration as significant factors for particle size and VC content affected zeta, LC and EE%. RSM proposed optimum processing parameter at 2% Cs, 0.746 VC: Cs mass ratio and 21 kV voltage with 251.1 ± 59.03 nm particle size, 36.6% LC and an EE of 85.42%. Encapsulated particles were subjected to release behaviour, antioxidant property and analyzed through FTIR, DSC and XRD. Encapsulated VC had better antibacterial properties than Cs nanoparticles, and comparable VC retention in apple juice showed its effectiveness. Overall, nanoencapsulation of VC using electrospraying was successfully developed to be used in numerous food processing applications.

Abstract
The influence of l- and d-ascorbic acid diastereomers on the structure, supramolecular ordering, energy, sorption and biological properties of heterochiral (D-L) and homochiral (D-D) salt complexes of chitosan (d-glucan)-acid was studied. The thermal effect of dissolving chitosan in l-ascorbic acid and the protonation degree of (D-L)-salts were lower than those in the medium of the d-isomer. Homochiral (D-D) salts, in contrast to heterochiral (D-L) ones, are distinguished by a more developed system of intermolecular and intramolecular contacts, a more ordered and equilibrium supramolecular organization of macrochains, a higher crystallinity degree, and a smaller amount of crystallization water. The sorption isotherms of chiral salts were approximated by the thermal equation of sorption and the superposition of the Langmuir and Flory-Huggins isotherms. Significant differences were found in the limiting value and energy of sorption, the constant of adsorption equilibrium, the limiting sorption capacity of the localized mode of water, and the Gibbs mixing energy. Biotesting on non-vascular (Scenedesmus quadricauda) and vascular eukaryotes (Linum usitatissimum) revealed the growth-stimulating effect of the D-D salts. The obtained results confirm our hypothesis of the homochiral salt complexes d-glucan-d-ascorbic acid best corresponding to the principles of the functional organization of biological objects.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 252:126375.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) is widely used as a natural biopolymer due to its semi-crystalline structure, good film-forming properties, and easy availability. CS-based composite films are widely used in industry, particularly in the food sector as active food packaging. Despite all of these advantages, their wide range of applications are constrained by poor mechanical properties. Therefore, this work introduced refined bamboo cellulose powder (RBCP), a reinforcing material that is extracted from waste bamboo pulp and applied to CS composite films to enhance their mechanical and physicochemical properties. The chemical composition and crystallinity properties of CS composite films with RBCP addition were observed by ATR-FTIR and XRD. The homogeneous and heterogeneous surfaces of the RBCP incorporated films before biodegradation and after biodegradation (20 days) were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The increase in reinforcing RBCP materials from 0.00 to 5.00 % resulted in an increase in tensile strength for CS/RBCP films from 2.9 to 8.3 MPa. The application of the CS/RBCP/5 composite film as red grapefruit storage was also investigated, which performed much better than commercial plastic and control CS films with 92.8 and 88.6 % viability of S. aureus and E. coli bacteria. Overall achieved properties demonstrated strong potential for usage as active packaging materials to preserve and lengthen the shelf life of red grapefruits.

Abstract
Skin wounds may cause severe financial and social burden due to the difficulties in wound healing. Original inert dressings cannot meet multiple needs in the process of wound healing. Therefore, the development of materials to accelerate healing progress is essential and urgent. In the previous study, we found that the homogeneously synthesized hydroxybutyl chitosan (HBCS) had an effective performance in promoting wound healing. Proteomic analysis of the same specimen suggested that matrix metalloproteinase 23 (MMP23) may play a key role in HBCS expediting the progress of wound healing. In this work, we aim to reveal the underlying mechanism of MMP23 in the dynamic process of cutaneous proliferation and repair period. In order to regulate the expression level of MMP23 in the local wound area, we leaded in adeno-associated virus (AAV) to specifically decreased expression quantity of MMP23 in rat skin. In contrast to the negative control groups, we found that the wound closed faster and the collagen fibers and neovascularization were significantly increased in AAV groups. These findings highlighted that MMP23 was involved in wound healing after traumatic injury, and managing the expression of MMP23 could be a potential intervention target to accelerate wound healing.

Abstract
Betanin, a natural food color and the only betalain, is approved for use in pharmaceutical and food industries as natural antioxidative and preservative agent, respectively. However, the antioxidant power and health-promoting properties of betanin have been disregarded due to its low stability in physiological conditions. Therefore, this study is designed to synthesize and evaluate in vitro pharmacological characteristics of betanin-encapsulated chitosan nanoparticles (ChBetNPs). ChBetNPs were synthesized by ionic gelation method and characterized by DLS, UV, FTIR, SEM and zeta potential analysis. The encapsulation efficiency (EE) and in vitro release kinetics were analyzed using spectrophotometric technique for quantifying the encapsulated amount of betanin in ChBetNPs as a function of time. The antioxidant activity of ChBetNPs was analyzed by DPPH and H2O2 radical scavenging assays, anti-inflammatory activity by protein denaturation and human RBCs stabilization assays, and anti-acetylcholinesterase activity using standard protocol with minor modifications. Unloaded chitosan nanoparticles (CSNPs) were found to be sized at 161.4 ± 5.75 nm while an increase in the size to 270.3 ± 8.50 nm was noticed upon encapsulating betanin. EE of ChBetNPs was measured to be ∼87.5%. The IC50 of ChBetNPs depicted significant free radical scavenging activities as compared to CSNPs. Similarly, a strong anti-inflammatory activity of ChBetNPs was noted. Significant decrease in acetylcholinesterase activity by ChBetNPs was measured (IC50 0.5255 μg/mL vs. control 26.09 μg/mL). The vegetables coated with 3% ChBetNPs showed decreased weight loss as compared to uncoated control. ChBetNPs was shown to exhibit strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-acetylcholinesterase activities thus making it a significant therapeutic agent for the management of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Packaging plays an important role in food quality and safety, especially regarding waste and spoilage reduction. The main drawback is that the packaging industry is among the ones that is highly dependent on plastic usage. New alternatives to conventional plastic packaging such as biopolymers-based type are mandatory. Examples are cellulose films and its derivatives. These are among the most used options in the food packaging due to their unique characteristics, such as biocompatibility, environmental sustainability, low price, mechanical properties, and biodegradability. Emerging concepts such as active and intelligent packaging provides new solutions for an extending shelf-life, and it fights some limitations of cellulose films and improves the properties of the packaging. This article reviews the available cellulose polymers and derivatives that are used as sustainable alternatives for food packaging regarding their properties, characteristics, and functionalization towards active properties enhancement. In this way, several types of films that are prepared with cellulose and their derivatives, incorporating antimicrobial and antioxidant compounds, are herein described, and discussed.

Abstract
Currently, biodegradable and functional food packaging materials have attracted more and more attention due to their potential advantages. Biopolymers are one of the promising materials used to produce biodegradable food packaging films, and sodium alginate (SA) is one of the most used polysaccharides. In this work, we explored a novel edible sodium alginate (SA)/tannic acid (TA) film as biodegradable active food packaging material. The impact of TA concentration on the UV light blocking ability, transparency, water vapor barrier ability, mechanical strength, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activity of the SA-TA films was comprehensively investigated. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results revealed that strong hydrogen bonding was the main intermolecular interaction between SA and TA. As TA concentration in the films increased, the water vapor permeability (WVP) decreased from 1.24 × 10-6 to 0.54 × 10-6 g/m/h/Pa, the DPPH radical scavenging activity increased from 0.008% to 89.02%. Moreover, the incorporation of TA effectively blocked UV light and elevated antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli. Overall, the SA films with TA exhibited better water vapor barrier ability, remarkable UV-light barrier ability and antioxidant activity while showing a slight decrease in light transmittance. These results indicated the potential application of TA as a functional additive agent for developing multifunctional food packaging materials.

Abstract
Biomaterials come from natural sources such as animals, plants, fungi, algae, and bacteria, composed mainly of protein, lipid, and carbohydrate molecules. The great diversity of biomaterials makes these compounds promising for developing new products for technological applications. In this sense, antioxidant biomaterials have been developed to exert biological and active functions in the human body and industrial formulations. Furthermore, antioxidant biomaterials come from natural sources, whose components can inhibit reactive oxygen species (ROS). Thus, these materials incorporated with antioxidants, mainly from plant sources, have important effects, such as anti-inflammatory, wound healing, antitumor, and anti-aging, in addition to increasing the shelf-life of products. Aiming at the importance of antioxidant biomaterials in different technological segments as biodegradable, economic, and promising sources, this review presents the main available biomaterials, antioxidant sources, and assigned biological activities. In addition, potential applications in the biomedical and industrial fields are described with a focus on innovative publications found in the literature in the last five years.

The Preparation of Anti-Ultraviolet Composite Films Based on Fish Gelatin and Sodium Alginate Incorporated with Mycosporine-like Amino Acids. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14152980. [PMID: 35893944 PMCID: PMC9330497 DOI: 10.3390/polym14152980] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Revised: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) are ultraviolet-absorbing compounds and have antioxidant functions. In this paper, MAAs were added into fish gelatin/sodium alginate films as an anti-ultraviolet additive. The effects of 0–5% MAAs (w/w, MAAs/fish gelatin) on the physical properties, antioxidant properties, antibacterial properties and anti-ultraviolet properties of fish gelatin/sodium alginate films were investigated. The results suggest that the content of the MAAs influenced the mechanical properties. The water content, swelling and water vapor permeability of the films were not altered with the addition of MAAs. In addition, the composite films showed effective antioxidant activity and antimicrobial activity. The incorporation of MAAs significantly improved the DPPH radical scavenging activity of the films from 35.77% to 46.61%. Moreover, the block ultraviolet rays’ ability was also greatly improved when the film mixed with the MAAs and when the value of the light transmission was 0.6% at 350 nm. Compared with the pure composite film, the growth of E. coli covered by the composite film with 3.75% and 5% MAAs exhibited the best survival rate. These results reveal that MAAs are a good film-forming substrate, and MAAs have good potential to prepare anti-ultraviolet active films and antioxidant active films for applications. Overall, this project provides a theoretical basis for the study of active composite films with anti-ultraviolet activities, and it provides new ideas for the application of MAAs.

Development of highly stable color indicator films based on κ-carrageenan, silver nanoparticle and red grape skin anthocyanin for marine fish freshness assessment. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 216:655-669. [PMID: 35798081 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.06.206] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2022] [Revised: 06/29/2022] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
Color indicator films for fish freshness were fabricated by incorporating κ-carrageenan (CAR) polymer with red grape skin extract (GSE) as a pH-sensing agent and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as an antimicrobial agent. Anthocyanins in GSE exhibited distinguished pH responsive color changes. GSE and AgNPs were well compatible with CAR with intramolecular interactions, approved by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). GSE-containing films displayed distinguished color changes in response to pH variations and volatile ammonia. Enhanced UV blocking ability and strong antioxidant activity were revealed for GSE included films without sacrificing the physico-chemical properties of the CAR film. Films containing AgNPs showed improved mechanical strength and strong antimicrobial ability against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The CAR/AgNPs/GSE film displayed a distinctive color change corresponding to changes in the total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) of fish during storage. In addition, the CAR/AgNPs/GSE film showed excellent color stability to consecutive UV exposure and its storage time at 25 °C is expected to be at least 240 days, which indicates that it has high potential as an intelligent food freshness indicator film.

Abstract
Hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan (HACC) is one of the most important water-soluble chitosan derivatives; its derivatives have gained growing attention due to their potential biomedical applications. Here, hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chitosan derivatives bearing thioctate (HACTs), with different degrees of substitution of thioctate, were prepared using HACC and α-lipoic acid as the reaction precursors, using an ion exchange method. The structural characteristics of the synthesized derivatives were confirmed by FTIR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopy. In addition, their antioxidant behaviors were also investigated in vitro by the assays of reducing power, and scavenging activities against hydroxyl radicals and DPPH radicals. The antioxidant assay indicated that HACTs displayed strong antioxidant activity compared with HACC, especially in terms of reducing power. Besides, the antioxidant activities of the prepared products were further enhanced with the increase in the test concentration and the degrees of substitution of thioctate. At the maximum test concentration of 1.60 mg/mL, the absorbance value at 700 nm of HACTs, under the test conditions, was 4.346 ± 0.296, while the absorbance value of HACC was 0.041 ± 0.007. The aforementioned results support the use of HACTs as antioxidant biomaterials in food and the biomedical field.

Abstract
Current environmental concerns fostered a strong interest in extracting polymers from renewable feedstocks. Chitosan, a second most abundant polysaccharide after cellulose, may prove to be a promising green material owing to its renewability, inherent biodegradablity, natural availability, non-toxicity, and ease of modification. This review is intended to comprehensively overview the recent developments on the isolation of chitosan from chitin, its modification and applications as a reinforcing candidate for food packaging materials, emphasizing the scientific underpinnings arising from its physicochemical properties, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antifungal activities. We review various chitosan-reinforced composites reported in the literature and comprehensively present intriguing mechanical and other functional properties. We highlight the contribution of these mechanically robust and responsive materials to extend the shelf-life and maintain the qualities of a wide range of food commodities. Finally, we assess critical challenges and highlight future opportunities towards understanding the versatile applications of chitosan nanocomposites.

Abstract
Nowadays, the development of mucoadhesive systems for drug delivery has gained keen interest, with enormous potential in applications through different routes. Mucoadhesion characterizes an attractive interaction between the pharmaceutical dosage form and the mucosal surface. Many polymers have shown the ability to interact with mucus, increasing the residence time of local and/or systemic administered preparations, such as tablets, patches, semi-solids, and micro and nanoparticles. Cellulose is the most abundant polymer on the earth. It is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as an inert pharmaceutical ingredient, mainly in its covalently modified forms: methylcellulose, ethylcellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and carboxymethylcellulose salts. Aiming to overcome the drawbacks of oral, ocular, nasal, vaginal, and rectal routes and thereby maintaining patient compliance, innovative polymer blends have gained the interest of the pharmaceutical industry. Combining mucoadhesive and thermoresponsive polymers allows for simultaneous in situ gelation and mucoadhesion, thus enhancing the retention of the system at the site of administration and drug availability. Thermoresponsive polymers have the ability to change physicochemical properties triggered by temperature, which is particularly interesting considering the physiological temperature. The present review provides an analysis of the main characteristics and applications of cellulose derivatives as mucoadhesive polymers and their use in blends together with thermoresponsive polymers, aiming at platforms for drug delivery. Patents were reviewed, categorized, and discussed, focusing on the applications and pharmaceutical dosage forms using this innovative strategy. This review manuscript also provides a detailed introduction to the topic and a perspective on further developments.

Abstract
In this paper, adriamycin-incorporated chitosan nanoparticles were synthesized by ionic gelation using negatively charged carboxymethyl chitosan and positively charged 2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan. The method was efficient to obtain nanoparticles with low polydispersity index and small hydrodynamic diameter. And high zeta potential value indicated that nanoparticles had good stability. The adriamycin release of nanoparticles represented a significant response to pH, with the fastest release in phosphate buffer solution at pH 6.8. Meanwhile, the antioxidant efficiency of nanoparticles was assayed, and nanoparticles represented significant enhancement in radicals scavenging activity. The assay of cell viability by CCK-8 test exhibited that nanoparticles led to statistically significant decrease in cell viability for four kinds of cancer cells (HEPG-2, A549, MCF-7, and BGC-823). It was indicated that the nanoparticles with enhanced biological activity, reduced cytotoxicity, and pH-sensitive release could be served as potential drug carrier in drug delivery system.

Abstract
Patients with irregular, huge burn wounds require time-consuming healing. The skin has an epithelial barrier mechanism. Hence, the penetration and retention of therapeutics across the skin to deep lesion is generally quite difficult and these usually constrain the delivery/therapeutic efficacies for wound healing. Effective burn wound healing also necessitates proper circulation. Conventional polymeric dressing usually exhibits weak mechanical behaviors, obstructing their load-bearing applications. Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) was used as an efficient, environmentally friendly, and biocompatible process to crosslink methylcellulose (MC) designed for topical administration such as therapeutic substances of platelets (SP) and polyethyleneimine-polypyrrole nanoparticle (PEI-PPy NP)-laden MC hydrogel carriers, and wound dressings. The roles of framework parameters for CAP-treated SP-PEI-PPy NP-MC polymeric complex system; chemical, physical, and photothermal effects; morphological, spectroscopical, mechanical, rheological, and surface properties; in vitro drug release; and hydrophobicity are discussed. Furthermore, CAP-treated SP-PEI-PPy NP-MC polymeric complex possessed augmented mechanical properties, biocompatibility, sustainable drug release, drug-retention effects, and near-infrared (NIR)-induced hyperthermia effects that drove heat-shock protein (HSP) expression with drug permeation to deep lesions. This work sheds light on the CAP crosslinking polymeric technology and the efficacy of combining sustained drug release with photothermal therapy in burn wound bioengineering carrier designs.

Abstract
Presently, notwithstanding the progress regarding wound-healing management, the treatment of the majority of skin lesions still represents a serious challenge for biomedical and pharmaceutical industries. Thus, the attention of the researchers has turned to the development of novel materials based on cellulose derivatives. Cellulose derivatives are semi-synthetic biopolymers, which exhibit high solubility in water and represent an advantageous alternative to water-insoluble cellulose. These biopolymers possess excellent properties, such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, sustainability, non-toxicity, non-immunogenicity, thermo-gelling behavior, mechanical strength, abundance, low costs, antibacterial effect, and high hydrophilicity. They have an efficient ability to absorb and retain a large quantity of wound exudates in the interstitial sites of their networks and can maintain optimal local moisture. Cellulose derivatives also represent a proper scaffold to incorporate various bioactive agents with beneficial therapeutic effects on skin tissue restoration. Due to these suitable and versatile characteristics, cellulose derivatives are attractive and captivating materials for wound-healing applications. This review presents an extensive overview of recent research regarding promising cellulose derivatives-based materials for the development of multiple biomedical and pharmaceutical applications, such as wound dressings, drug delivery devices, and tissue engineering.

Abstract
The collection, storage, and use of energy and information are important issues for overcoming the global energy shortage while satisfying the demand for information transmission. This research reports a nano-Fe3O4 and erythritol (ER)-functionalized, cross-linked methyl cellulose aerogel (MC-EP) composite that has the characteristics of phase-change energy storage as the magnetic and ultraviolet responses requisite for light-to-heat conversion and storage. The nano-Fe3O4 particles in MC-EP-ER-75 were fixed and filled into pore structures in MC-EP. ER was used to form an effective combination with MC-EP. The addition of nano-Fe3O4 compensated for the low thermal conductivity of ER. The MC-EP-ER-75 was able to store solar radiation-induced energy due to the loading of ER at a photothermal conversion efficiency of 79.67% and a light-to-heat conversion efficiency of 79.67%. The results of thermal stability (TGA) analysis showed that MC-EP-ER-75 was thermally degraded acceptably below 200 °C. The differential scanning calorimetry curve and latent heat values (melting/crystallization enthalpies of 314.8 and 197.9 J/g, respectively) of MC-EP-ER-75 did not change after 100 cycles. In addition, it exhibited excellent saturation magnetization, super-paramagnetism, and ultraviolet shielding, as well as a rapid response to the ultraviolet and magnetic fields. This provided a way to prepare light-to-heat conversion-storage-release materials and ultraviolet-magnetic sensors that can be used in renewable resources.

Abstract
Hydrogels, possessing high biocompatibility and adaptability to biological tissue, show great usability in medical applications. In this research, a series of novel cross-linked chitosan quaternary ammonium salt loading with gentamicin sulfate (CTMCSG) hydrogel films with different cross-linking degrees were successfully obtained by the reaction of chitosan quaternary ammonium salt (TMCS) and epichlorohydrin. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal analysis, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to characterize the chemical structure and surface morphology of CTMCSG hydrogel films. The physicochemical property, gentamicin sulphate release behavior, cytotoxicity, and antibacterial activity of the CTMCSG against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were determined. Experimental results demonstrated that CTMCSG hydrogel films exhibited good water stability, thermal stability, drug release capacity, as well as antibacterial property. The inhibition zone of CTMCSG hydrogel films against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus could be up to about 30 mm. Specifically, the increases in maximum decomposition temperature, mechanical property, water content, swelling degree, and a reduction in water vapor permeability of the hydrogel films were observed as the amount of the cross-linking agent increased. The results indicated that the CTMCSG-4 hydrogel film with an interesting physicochemical property, admirable antibacterial activity, and slight cytotoxicity showed the potential value as excellent antibacterial wound dressing.

Abstract
Edible packaging is a sustainable product and technology that uses one kind of "food" (an edible material) to package another kind of food (a packaged product), and organically integrates food with packaging through ingenious material design. Polysaccharides are a reliable source of edible packaging materials with excellent renewable, biodegradable, and biocompatible properties, as well as antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. Using polysaccharide-based materials effectively reduces the dependence on petroleum resources, decreases the carbon footprint of the "product-packaging" system, and provides a "zero-emission" scheme. To date, they have been commercialized and developed rapidly in the food (e.g., fruits and vegetables, meat, nuts, confectioneries, and delicatessens, etc.) packaging industry. However, compared with petroleum-based polymers and plastics, polysaccharides still have limitations in film-forming, mechanical, barrier, and protective properties. Therefore, they need to be improved by reasonable material modifications (chemical or physical modification). This article comprehensively reviews recent research advances, hot issues, and trends of polysaccharide-based materials in edible packaging. Emphasis is given to fundamental compositions and properties, functional modifications, food-packaging applications, and safety risk assessment of polysaccharides (including cellulose, hemicellulose, starch, chitosan, and polysaccharide gums). Therefore, to provide a reference for the development of modern edible packaging.

Abstract
Recent years have seen a steady increase in interest and demand for the use of humectants based on biodegradable natural polymers in many fields. The aim of this paper is to investigate the moisture absorption and retention properties of 2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chitosan derivatives which were modified by anionic compounds via ion exchange. FTIR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopy were used to demonstrate the specific structures of chitosan derivatives. The degrees of substitution for objective products were calculated by the integral ratio of hydrogen atoms according to 1H NMR spectroscopy. Meanwhile, moisture absorption of specimens was assayed in a desiccator at different relative humidity (RH: 43% and 81%), and all target products exhibited enhanced moisture absorption. Furthermore, moisture retention measurement at different relative humidity (RH: 43%, 81%, and drier silica gel) was estimated, and all target products possessed obviously improved moisture retention property. Specifically, after 48 h later, the moisture retention property of HACBA at 81% RH was 372.34%, which was much higher than HA (180.04%). The present study provided a novel method to synthesize chitosan derivatives with significantly improved moisture absorption and retention properties that would serve as potential humectants in biomedical, food, medicine, and cosmetics fields.

Abstract
Chitosan nanoparticles have been considered as potential candidates for drug loading/release in drug delivery systems. In this paper, nanoparticles (HACAFNP) loading adriamycin based on 2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan grafting folic acid (HACF) were synthesized. The surface morphology of the novel nanoparticles was spherical or oval, and the nanoparticles exhibited a relatively small hydrodynamic diameter (85.6 ± 2.04 nm) and positive zeta potential (+21.06 ± 0.96 mV). The drug release of nanoparticles was assayed and represented a burst effect followed by a long-term steady release. Afterward, the antioxidant efficiencies of nanoparticles were assayed. In particular, the target nanoparticles exhibited significant enhancement in radical scavenging activities. Cytotoxicities against cancer cells (MCF-7, BGC-823, and HEPG-2) were estimated in vitro, and results showed nanoparticles inhibited the growth of cancer cells. It's worth noting that the inhibition index of HACAFNP against BGC-823 cells was 71.19% with the sample concentration of 25 μg/mL, which was much higher than the inhibitory effect of ADM. It was demonstrated that the novel nanoparticles with dramatically enhanced biological activity, reduced cytotoxicity, and steady release could be used as the practical candidates for drug loading/release in a delivery system.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS)/boron nitride nanoplatelet (BNNP) nanobiocomposite films were successfully prepared. Morphological results showed good dispersion of BNNPs in the CS matrix. After loading with BNNPs, water solubility (WS) and moisture absorption of the CS film decreased. The WS decreased from 41.2 to 27.8% at 7 wt% BNNP loading. Additionally, water vapor permeation decreased from 4.2 × 10-11 for pure CS film to 2.9 × 10-11 g m-1s-1Pa-1 at 7 wt% BNNP inclusion. The oxygen permeability of CS film decreased by up to 84% at 7 wt% BNNP loading. The composites showed better sodium hydroxide resistance compared with pure CS. Thermal stability of the composites was higher than the pure CS, up to 35 °C increase at 7 wt% BNNP loading. The addition of 5 wt% BNNPs improved Young's modulus by up to 45% compared with pure CS film. Cytotoxicity of the films decreased after loading with BNNPs.

Abstract
Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is a thermoplastic polyester with excellent properties such as lightweight, low price, biocompatibility, and so on. However, its extensive utilization is restricted by the deficiencies of brittleness and poor mechanical properties. In this study, high-performance PMMA films enhanced by methylcellulose (MC) were fabricated by a simple procedure at ambient temperatures. The effects of PMMA/MC mass ratio and thermal compression treatment on mechanical properties (tensile strength and elongation) were systematically investigated. The PMMA/MC films showed remarkably enhanced mechanical properties compared with neat PMMA. The tensile strengths of the PMMA/MC (3:97) and PMMA/MC (1:1) films are higher than that of the PMMA/MC (9:1) film by about 471 and 83%, respectively. The mechanical properties were also improved after thermal compression treatment. Importantly, the PMMA/MC films could be recovered and reused. In addition, the morphologies, crystalline state, and chemical structures of the films were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The films are expected to be used as sustainable and potential alternatives to petroleum-based polymer film products because of their simple preparation procedure, high-performance mechanical properties, excellent recycling, eco-friendly features, and scale manufacture.

Abstract
This study focused on the investigation of bacterial cellulose production potency of some fruit and vegetable peels (cucumber, melon, kiwifruit, tomato, apple, quince and pomegranate) with Komagataeibacter hansenii GA2016. Fruit and vegetable peels were hydrolyzed, used for bacterial cellulose (BC) production and their chemical, physical, thermal and structural features were compared to BC from Hestrin-Schramm medium (HSBC) and plant cellulose (CP). Except for pomegranate peel hydrolysate, all the fruit and vegetable peel hydrolysates supplied to K. hansenii GA2016 supported the BC production. Among the fruit and vegetable peel hydrolysates, the highest BC production was observed in kiwifruit peel hydrolysate (11.53%), while the lowest production was observed in apple peel hydrolysate (1.54%). Water-holding capacities of the BCs were ranged from 627.50% to 928.79% and higher than HSBC (609.30%), average fiber diameters were ranged from 47.64 nm to 61.11 nm and thinner than HSBC (74.29) and CP (10,420 nm), crystallinities were ranged from 80.27% to 92.96%, thermal capacities BCs were higher than HSBC and CP. For the BC productions, utilization of the fruit and vegetable peels as the sole nutrient source could reduce the production costs and among the polysaccharides, increase the use of BC in industry.

Abstract
With the rapid exhaustion of fossil resources, and environmental pollution relative to the use of fossil-based products, developing eco-friendly products using biomass and/or biodegradable resources is becoming increasingly conspicuous. In this study, ecofriendly and biodegradable composite membranes containing varying MC/PLA (methylcellulose/polylactic acid) mass ratios were prepared. The properties and structures of the MC/PLA membranes were studied by mechanical testing, 13C NMR techniques, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and hot compression. The MC/PLA membranes displayed markedly improved tensile strength and elongation at the MC/PLA mass ratio range of 99:1 to 9:1. The tensile strength and elongation of the MC/PLA (97:3) membrane was found to be the optimum, at 30% and 35% higher than the neat MC, respectively. It was also found that hot compression could improve the tensile strength and elongation of the membranes. At the same time, the membranes showed enough good thermal stability. In addition, the effect of MC/PLA mass ratio on morphologies of the membranes were studied by microscopy technique.
