Soy protein isolate-based active films functionalized with Zanthoxylum bungeanum by-products: Effects on barrier, mechanical, antioxidant and cherry tomato preservation performance. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:127539. [PMID: 37858653 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127539] [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: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 10/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023]
Abstract
In this work, soy protein isolate (SPI)-based films enriched with naturally sourced Zanthoxylum bungeanum leaf extract (ZBLE) were prepared. Different ZBLE contents (0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 % w/w SPI) were incorporated into the SPI matrix to investigate the effect of ZBLE on various properties of the obtained films. ZBLE exhibited excellent compatibility with SPI in terms of tensile strength, water barrier properties, UV-light resistance capability, and antioxidant activities. The films with 5 % ZBLE addition presented the most comprehensive performance. The release of total phenolic compounds in two different aqueous food simulants was analyzed. Furthermore, the films were employed to preserve fresh cherry tomatoes at 25 ± 1 °C for 18 days. The changes in the physicochemical properties (mass loss rate, decay rate, and vitamin C content) of cherry tomatoes revealed that the addition of ZBLE to films significantly extended the storage time. Therefore, the SPI/ZBLE composite film has the potential as an eco-friendly active packaging material for food preservation.

Cobos Á, Díaz O. Impact of Nanoclays Addition on Chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.) Flour Film Properties. Foods 2023; 13:75. [PMID: 38201103 PMCID: PMC10778780 DOI: 10.3390/foods13010075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/23/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Chickpea flour is an affordable natural blend of starch, proteins, and lipids, which can create films with suitable properties as an eco-friendly packaging material. Nanoclays' incorporation into natural biopolymers enhances the barrier properties of the resulting nanocomposites, so they could improve the properties of flour films. The objective of this work was to assess the influence of three types of nanoclays (halloysite, bentonite, and Cloisite 20A) at two concentrations on the characteristics of chickpea flour films. In general terms, when the lowest dose (5%) was added, no or very slight significant differences with the control were observed in most parameters, except for thermal stability and opacity, which increased, and solubility, which decreased. At the highest concentration (10%), films containing any of the nanoclays demonstrated greater thermal stability, opacity, and rigidity while being less soluble than those without nanofillers. Bentonite exhibited superior film structure distribution compared to other nanoclays. At the highest concentration, it had the most significant impact on modifying the properties of chickpea flour films, increasing their tensile and puncture strengths while decreasing elasticity and water vapor permeability. The incorporation of nanoclays into chickpea flour films could be a useful technique to enhance their properties.

Abstract
Edible films applied in food packaging must possess excellent inhibitory and mechanical properties. Protein-based films exhibit a high capacity for film formation and offer good gas barrier properties. However, they have weak mechanical and water barrier characteristics. The objective of this research was to develop active composite films based on reinforced soy protein isolate (SPI)/Kappa-carrageenan (K) with varying concentrations of bacterial cellulose nanofibrils (BCN). Increasing the BCN concentration improved the morphological, structural, mechanical, water vapor barrier, and moisture content properties. In comparison to the pure SPI film (S), the film with a high BCN concentration demonstrated a significant decrease in WS (22.98 ± 0.78 %), MC (21.72 ± 0.68 %), WVP (1.22 ± 0.14 g mm-1 S-1 Pa-1 10-10), and EAB (57.77 ± 5.25 %) properties. It should be emphasized that there was no significant alteration in the physicomechanical properties of the optimal film (SKB0.75) containing Zenian-loaded metal-organic frameworks (ZM). However, it substantially enhanced the thermal stability of this film, which can be attributed to the strong interfacial interactions between polymer chains and ZM. Furthermore, the ZM films inhibited the growth of pathogenic bacteria and increased the DPPH antioxidant activity. Thus, SKB0.75-ZM2 films can be utilized as practical components in food packaging.

Detection of receptor tyrosine kinase-orphan receptor-2 using an electrochemical immunosensor modified with electrospun nanofibers comprising polyvinylpyrrolidone, soy, and gold nanoparticles. Mikrochim Acta 2023; 190:418. [PMID: 37770707 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-023-06002-8] [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: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 09/16/2023] [Indexed: 09/30/2023]
Abstract
An electrochemical immunosensing platform was developed for the detection of receptor tyrosine kinase-orphan receptor-2 (ROR2) at a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with the electrospun nanofiber containing polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), soy, and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs). The PVP/soy/AuNP nanofiber exhibited good electrochemical behavior due to synergistic effects between PVP, soy, and AuNPs. The PVP/soy in the modified film provided good mechanical strength, high porosity, flexible structures, and high specific surface area. On the other hand, the presence of AuNPs effectively improved conductivity, as well as the immobilization of anti-ROR2 on the modified GCE, leading to enhanced sensitivity. Various characterization approaches such as FE-SEM, FTIR, and EDS were used for investigating the morphological and structural features, and the elemental composition. The designed immunosensor performance was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Under optimum conditions with a working potential range from -0.2 to 0.6 V (vs. SCE), sensitivity, linear range (LR), limit of detection (LOD), and correlation coefficient (R2) were acquired at 122.26 μA/cm2 dec, 0.01-1000 pg/mL, 3.39 fg/mL, and 0.9974, respectively. Furthermore, the determination of ROR2 in human plasma samples using the designed immunosensing platform was examined and exhibited satisfactory results including good selectivity against other proteins, reproducibility, and cyclic stability.

Abstract
Propolis has numerous biological properties and technological potential, but its low solubility in water makes its use quite difficult. With the advent of nanotechnology, better formulations with propolis, such as nanopropolis, can be achieved to improve its properties. Nanopropolis is a natural nanomaterial with several applications, including in the maintenance of food quality. Food safety is a global public health concern since food matrices are highly susceptible to contamination of various natures, leading to food loss and transmission of harmful foodborne illness. Due to their smaller size, propolis nanoparticles are more readily absorbed by the body and have higher antibacterial and antifungal activities than common propolis. This review aims to understand whether using propolis with nanotechnology can help preserve food and prevent foodborne illness. Nanotechnology applied to propolis formulations proved to be effective against pathogenic microorganisms of industrial interest, making it possible to solve problems of outbreaks that can occur through food.

Abstract
The effectiveness of plastic packaging in protecting food is quite appreciable, but its non-biodegradable characteristic raises concerns about environmental impacts. This has drawn attention to the development of alternative materials for food packaging from bio-based polymers. Chitosan, a polysaccharide with biodegradable, biocompatible, and non-toxic properties, is widely used in the formulation of food films. The objective of this work was to create a biodegradable and sustainable chitosan-based film whose active and intelligent action is obtained from red cabbage anthocyanins and the addition of propolis. The edible film’s thickness and total polyphenol content were 61.0 ±0.1μm and 20.08 ±0.5 mgAG g-1, respectively. The content of phenolic compounds and the biodegradation showed significant results (p <0.05), besides the good thermal stability to 200 °C and transparency. The proposed formulation developed an edible, biodegradable, and active (antioxidant) film with interesting heat-sealing resistance, moisture barrier and gas transfer, which contributes to increasing food shelf life.
