Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional petroleum-based packaging films cause severe environmental problems. In the present study, bio-edible film was introduced as being safe to replace petroleum-based polymers. A food application for edible sachets and a composite edible film (EF) from marine algae, Gracilaria fisheri (GF) extract, were proposed. RESULTS Carbohydrates were the most prevalent component in fresh GF fronds. Under neutral conditions comprising 90 °C for 40 min, the structure of the extract was determined by Fourier transform infrared to be a carrageenan-like polysaccharide. Glycerol was the best plasticizer for EF formation because it had the highest tensile strength (TS). The integration of gelatin into the algal composite film with gelatin (CFG) was validated to be significant. The best casting temperatures for 2 h were 70 and 100 °C among the four tested temperatures (25, 60, 70 and 100 °C). Temperatures did not result in any significant (P ≤ 0.05) differences in any character (color values, TS, water vapor permeability, oxygen transmission, thickness and water activity), except elongation at break. Visually, the CFG had a slightly yellow appearance. The best-to-worst order of film stability in the three tested solvents was oil, distilled water (DW) and ethanol. Its stability in ethanol (0-100%), temperature of DW (30-100 °C) and pH (3-7 in DW) demonstrated inverse relationships with the concentration or different conditions, except for pH 8-10 in DW. All treatments were significantly (P ≤ 0.05) different. CONCLUSION The novel material made from polysaccharides from algae, G. fisheri, was used to improve EF. The edible sachet application is plausible from the EF. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
To enhance the stability of anthocyanins under conditions such as light, temperature, and pH, an apricot polysaccharide hydrogel for anthocyanins encapsulation was prepared in this study. Apricot polysaccharides with different DEs were prepared by an alkaline de-esterification method. A gel was prepared by mixing the apricot polysaccharides with CaCl2 to encapsulate the anthocyanins; the encapsulation efficiency reached 69.52 ± 0.31 %. Additionally, the gel exhibited favorable hardness (144.17 ± 2.33 g) and chewiness (64.13 ± 1.53 g). Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD) spectra confirmed that the formation of the hydrogel primarily relied on electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding. Compared with free anthocyanins, it was also found that the gel-encapsulated anthocyanins had a higher retention rate (RR) under different temperatures and light.

Efficient removal of antibiotics from water by highly crosslinked metal-alginate particles: Preparation, isotherms, kinetics, and microbiological assay. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 326:121604. [PMID: 38142071 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.121604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/25/2023]
Abstract
Traces of antibiotics reaching aquatic environment lead to the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The efficient removal of antibiotics (ATBs) traces from wastewater is essential to tackle the AMR. In this study, a novel solid-state crosslinking method of alginate (ALG) was developed and applied to specifically remove ATBs from water. A wide range of crosslinkers (Ca2+, Zn2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Fe3+ and Al3+) was used and the crosslinking nature, density, and distribution were evidenced by FTIR, ICP-MS, and SEM-EDS. Compared with ionotropic gelation, the novel solid-state crosslinking method proved superior in term of ease of production, high crosslinking degree, and ATBs removal capacity. Fe-ALG and Zn-ALG showed high removal capacity of ciprofloxacin (356.5 mg/g and 928.6 mg/g) and doxycycline (90 mg/g and 690 mg/g), however, they were less effective toward amoxicillin (11.5 mg/g and 6 mg/g). Removal isotherms and kinetics followed type I and pseudo-second order suggesting a chemisorption removal mechanism. Fe-ALG was successfully regenerated with no loss in ATB removal capacity. The microbiological assay showed significant reductions of antibacterial activities after ATBs removal from water. Overall, metal-ALG systems obtained by solid-state crosslinking are promising for ATBs removal from wastewater giving the ease of production, high efficiency, regenerability, and scalability potential.

Microstructural and Mechanical Properties of Calcium-Treated Cactus Pear Mucilage ( Opuntia spp.), Pectin and Alginate Single-Biopolymer Films. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:4295. [PMID: 37959974 PMCID: PMC10650390 DOI: 10.3390/polym15214295] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Pectin and alginate satisfy multiple functional requirements in the food industry, especially relating to natural packaging formulation. The continuous need for economic and environmental benefits has promoted sourcing and investigating alternative biomaterials, such as cactus pear mucilage from the cladodes of Opuntia spp., as natural packaging alternatives. The structural and mechanical properties of mucilage, pectin and alginate films developed at a 5% (w/w) concentration were modified by treating the films with calcium (Ca) in the calcium chloride (CaCl2) form. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed the 5% (w/w) 'Algerian' and 'Morado' films to display considerable microstructure variation compared to the 5% (w/w) pectin and alginate films, with calcium treatment of the films influencing homogeneity and film orientation. Treating the alginate films with a 10% (w/w) stock CaCl2 solution significantly increased (p < 0.05) the alginate films' tensile strength (TS) and puncture force (PF) values. Consequently, the alginate films reported significantly higher (p < 0.05) film strength (TS and PF) than the pectin + Ca and mucilage + Ca films. The mucilage film's elasticity was negatively influenced by CaCl2, while the pectin and alginate films' elasticity was positively influenced by calcium treatment. These results suggest that the overall decreased calcium sensitivity and poor mechanical strength displayed by 'the Algerian' and 'Morado' films would not make them viable replacements for the commercial pectin and alginate films unless alternative applications were found.

Mucoadhesive Alginate/Pectin Films Crosslinked by Calcium Carbonate as Carriers of a Model Antifungal Drug-Posaconazole. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:2415.

Abstract
The mucosal membrane of the oral cavity, due to its unique structure and availability, constitutes an appropriate site for the delivery of drugs, both with local and systemic effects. Mucoadhesive buccal films are drug dosage forms that due to their convenience of application, flexibility and size, are characterized by patients' compliance. Sodium alginate and pectin are natural polymers from the polysaccharides group, with mucoadhesive properties, that are widely applied to obtain buccal films. However, their hydrophilic nature and poor water resistance limit their application in sustained drug release formulations. Hence, the aim of this investigation was to design alginate/pectin buccal films by a one-step crosslinking technique-with the application of calcium carbonate. This technique was applied to prepare crosslinked alginate and alginate/pectin mucoadhesive films with a model antifungal drug-posaconazole. The obtained formulations were evaluated for the impact of crosslinking and pectin's presence on their pharmaceutical, mucoadhesive, mechanical and physicochemical properties. Additionally, the antifungal activity of the prepared films against Candida spp. was evaluated. It was shown that pectin's presence in the formulations improved flexibility, mucoadhesion and antifungal activity. The crosslinking process reduced mucoadhesiveness and antifungal activity but significantly enhanced the mechanical properties and stability and enabled prolonged drug release.

Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by impaired skin barrier function. Amongst the various dermal formulations that are being used and/or investigated for AD treatment, one of the advanced approaches is the use of hydrogels as film-forming systems that are applied directly to the skin and have the added value of providing a physical barrier, which is lacking in atopic skin. Novel film-forming hydrogels based on two different nanocrystalline celluloses (NCCs) in combination with one of two natural polymers (alginate or pectin) were developed for incorporation of betamethasone dipropionate (BDP). Initially, the low water solubility of BDP was resolved by prior dissolution in a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS). The mixture of Kolliphor® EL/Capryol® 90 in a ratio of 8/2 was chosen on the merit of its high BDP-saturated solubility and no BDP precipitation upon water dilution, enabling BDP to remain dissolved after incorporation into hydrogels. The solvent evaporation method was used to prepare the films, and their high water retention capacity was confirmed in vitro on artificial membranes and pig ear skin. The presented results thus confirm NCC-based film-forming hydrogels as a very promising drug delivery system for AD treatment.

Abstract
This work was based on medium-viscosity alginate as a minor constituent in composites with poly lactic acid (PLA) with the objective to prepare compositional variants through Forcespinning® (FS); for future medical applications. Composites within 0.08-0.25 wt% medium-viscosity alginate were used, at fixed PLA, 6.6 wt%, compared with a study using 0.17-0.48 wt% low-viscosity alginate (same PLA), starting from water-in-oil emulsions, before FS. The presence of alginate is proposed here to influence the high surface tension existing at the emulsion water/oil interface, reducing the total energy at this interface, and/or facilitating the particles in the amphiphilic blend to lie-flat (re-orient) for better fit to the PLA curvature. The study revealed a direct correlation of the inner-phase size (alginate/water ratio), to the change in the morphology and structure of the resultant composites before and after FS. The change in the alginate type, revealed characteristics better suited for medical applications by the medium-viscosity alginate. Composites at alginate- medium-viscosity; ≤0.25 wt%, and low-viscosity; ≤0.48 wt%, had fiber networks interwoven with micro-beads, with characteristics better suited for controlled-release drug delivery applications. Alternatively, each alginate type at 1.1 wt%, composites with PLA at 6.6 wt% could bring about homogenous fibrous materials better suited for wound dressing.

Abstract
The present study aimed to develop a stable interconnected matrix as a sustained release drug delivery material. Arabinoxylan (AX) was extracted from ispaghula husk and then crosslinked with different concentrations, i.e., 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 g of CaCl2 per 0.25 g of AX. The crosslinking was confirmed through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The swelling capacity of crosslinked AX (CL-AX) was evaluated against buffer solutions of pH 1.2, 6.8, 7.4, and water. The swelling capacity increased from pH 1.2 to pH 7.4 and followed the second order swelling kinetics. The swelling study also revealed that CL-AX with 1.0 g CaCl2 showed maximum swelling capacity. The swelling–deswelling (on–off switching) behavior of CL-AX was evaluated in water–ethanol, water–0.9% NaCl solution, and buffer solutions of pH 7.4–1.2 and showed responsive swelling–deswelling behavior. Scanning electron microscopy revealed a highly porous nature of CL-AX with a mesh of thin fibrous networking. Hemocompatibility studies of CL-AX revealed its non-thrombogenic and nonhemolytic attributes. The CL-AX matrix tablet prolonged the release of enalapril maleate for 24 h, and the drug release followed the zero order kinetics and super case-II transport mechanism. Therefore, CL-AX can be recognized as a stimuli responsive and hemocompatible biomaterial with sustained drug release potential.

Abstract
Pectin hydrogel is a soft hydrocolloid with multifaceted utilities in the food sector. Substantial knowledge acquired on the gelation mechanisms and structure-function relationship of pectin has led to interesting functions of pectin hydrogel. Food applications of pectin hydrogels can be categorized under four headings: food ingredients/additives, food packaging, bioactive delivery and health management. The cross-linked and tangly three-dimensional structure of pectin gel renders it an ideal choice of wall material for the encapsulation of biomolecules and living cells; as a fat replacer and texturizer. Likewise, pectin hydrogel is an effective satiety inducer due to its ability to swell under the simulated gastric and intestinal conditions without losing its gel structure. Coating or composites of pectin hydrogel with proteins and other polysaccharides augment its functionality as an encapsulant, satiety-inducer and food packaging material. Low-methoxyl pectin gel is an appropriate food ink for 3D printing applications due to its viscoelastic properties, adaptable microstructure and texture properties. This review aims at explaining all the applications of pectin hydrogels, as mentioned above. A comprehensive discussion is presented on the approaches by which pectin hydrogel can be transformed as a resourceful material by controlling its dimensions, state, and rheology. The final sections of this article emphasize the recent research trends in this discipline, such as the development of smart hydrogels, injectable gels, aerogels, xerogels and oleogels from pectin.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of flaxseed mucilage on the co-extrusion microencapsulation of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. METHODS Core flow rate, chitosan coating, and flaxseed mucilage concentration were optimised for the microencapsulation of L. rhamnosus. The microbeads were characterised and evaluated on microencapsulation efficiency and cell released after 6 h of sequential digestion. RESULTS The optimised parameters for the L. rhamnosus microencapsulation were 1.0 mL/min core flow rate, 0.4% (w/v) chitosan coating, and 0.4% (w/v) flaxseed mucilage. The L. rhamnosus microbeads with flaxseed mucilage in core and wall materials had a smooth surface with 781.3 µm diameter, the highest microencapsulation efficiency (98.8% w/w), lowest swelling (5196.7% w/w) and erosion ratio (515.5% w/w), and least cell release (<40% w/w) with 9.31 log10 CFU mL-1 after sequential digestion. CONCLUSIONS This study showed the protective capacity of flaxseed mucilage towards the L. rhamnosus GG during microencapsulation and gastrointestinal environment.

Abstract
Hydrogels based on natural and modified polysaccharides represent growing group of suitable matrices for the construction of effective wound healing materials. Bioactive tripeptide glycyl-l-histidyl-l-lysine and amino acid α-l-arginine are known to accelerate wound healing and skin repair. In this study, hydrogels based on low-methoxyl amidated citrus pectin or flaxseed gum were prepared and used for the transport of these healing agents to the experimental cutting wounds affected by extensive skin damage. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, rheology, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy, swelling and release tests confirmed that these hydrogels differed in structure and physical properties. The cationic tripeptide was found to bind to carboxylic groups in LMA pectin, and the C3OH hydroxyl and ring oxygen O5 are involved in this interaction. The pectin hydrogel showed high viscosity and strong elastic properties, while the flaxseed gum hydrogel was characterised as a viscoelastic system of much lower viscosity. The former hydrogel released the drugs very slowly, while the latter hydrogel demonstrated zero order releasing kinetics optimal for drug delivery. In the in vivo wound healing testing on rats, both polysaccharide hydrogels improved the healing process mediated by the mentioned biomolecules. The tripeptide applied in the hydrogels showed significantly higher healing degree and lower healing time than in the control animals without treatment and when it was applied in an aqueous solution. Despite the absence of a synergistic effect, the mixture of the tripeptide and α-l-arginine in the hydrogels was also quite effective in wound healing. According to histological analysis, complete healing was achieved only when using the tripeptide in the flaxseed gum hydrogel. These observations might have an important prospect in clinical application of polysaccharide hydrogels.

Abstract
Alginate and pectin are emblematic natural polyuronates that have been widely used in food, cosmetics and medicine. Ca-dependent gelation is one of their most important functional properties. The gelation mechanisms of alginate and pectin, known as egg-box model, were believed to be basically the same, because their Ca-binding sites show a mirror symmetric conformation. However, studies have found that the formation and the structure of egg-box dimmers between alginate and pectin were different. Very few studies have reviewed those differences. Therefore, this study was proposed to first summarize the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that can influence the gelation of alginate and pectin. The differences in the effect of these factors on the gelation of alginate and pectin were then discussed. Meanwhile, the similarity and difference in their gelation mechanism was also summarized. The knowledge gained in this review would provide useful information for the practical applications of alginate and pectin.

Abstract
This study evaluated the physicochemical and morphological properties of pectin and chitosan particles combined with sugarcane vinasse for soil fertilization applications. Particles were obtained by adding the biopolymeric solutions (pectin or chitosan solution) dropwise into the crosslinking solutions (calcium chloride 1% in ethanolic solution or tripolyphosphate 5% aqueous solution) followed by drying. Vinasse enhanced pectin gel stability improving pectin/vinasse particle properties. Physicochemical characterization indicated that vinasse nutrients were properly incorporated in both pectin and chitosan matrices. Particles showed spherical shape, with an average diameter of 3 and 2 mm for the pectin and chitosan particles with vinasse, respectively. Chitosan particles, compared to pectin, showed lower swelling capacity and solubility and higher mechanical resistance indicating a denser and more compact polymer network. Both particles were able to hinder water evaporation rates from sandy soil under water stress conditions. Biobased particles with vinasse added show potential to be applied as soil fertilizer representing an alternative to use and disposal of this expressive wastewater from sugar and alcohol industries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Edible films were obtained from aqueous emulsions prepared with low-methoxyl pectin at different concentrations (10, 20 and 30 g kg-1 ) and two sunflower wax samples recovered from two waste samples of filter cakes produced in the winterization process of sunflower oil. The two sunflower waxes samples recovered (from the normal hybrid, NSFW, and from the high-oleic hybrid, HOSFW) were added in three proportions (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 g g-1 of pectin). Films were evaluated according to their structure, water resistance, water vapor permeability, mechanical properties and thermal behavior. RESULTS In general, good dispersion of the lipid material was observed in the cross-sections of the film. Increase in the water resistance (lower swelling index and water adsorption) was associated with a greater pectin content crosslinked with Ca2+ and the hydrophobic nature of waxes. The reduction in water vapor transfer rates was influenced by the effect of the wax addition, their fatty acid composition and their good distribution on the film. More resistant, rigid and less flexible films were obtained with lower pectin content, finding an inverse relationship between tensile strength and elongation percentage values. CONCLUSION These results evidence a promising alternative in the development of innovative strategies to valorize sunflower waxes derived from waste material. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Nowadays, biopolymers as intelligent and active biopolymer systems in the food and pharmaceutical industry are of considerable interest in their use. With this association in view, biopolymers such as chitosan, alginate, pectin, cellulose, agarose, guar gum, agar, carrageenan, gelatin, dextran, xanthan, and other polymers have received significant attention in recent years due to their abundance and natural availability. Furthermore, their versatile properties such as non-toxicity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and flexibility offer significant functionalities with multifunctional applications. The purpose of this review is to summarize the most compatible biopolymers such as chitosan, alginate, and pectin, which are used for application in food, biotechnological processes, and biomedical applications. Therefore, chitosan, alginate, and pectin are biopolymers (used in the food industry as a stabilizing, thickening, capsular agent, and packaging) with great potential for future developments. Moreover, this review highlights their characteristics, with a particular focus on their potential for biocompatibility, biodegradability, bioadhesiveness, and their limitations on certain factors in the human gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
Extensive usage of long-lasting petroleum based plastics for short-lived application such as packaging has raised concerns regarding their role in environmental pollution. In this research, we have developed active, healable, and safely dissolvable alginate-pectin based biocomposites that have potential applications in food packaging. The morphological study revealed the rough surface of these biocomposite films. Tensile properties indicated that the fabricated samples have mechanical properties in the range of commercially available packaging films while possessing excellent healing efficiency. Biocomposite films exhibited higher hydrophobicity properties compared to neat alginate films. Thermal analysis indicated that crosslinked biocomposite samples possess higher thermal stability in temperatures below 120 °C, while antibacterial analysis against E. coli and S. aureus revealed the antibacterial properties of the prepared samples against different bacteria. The fabricated biodegradable multi-functional biocomposite films possess various imperative properties, making them ideal for utilization as packaging material.

Abstract
Mineralized biological tissues, whose behavior can range from rigid to compliant, are an essential component of vertebrates and invertebrates. Little is known about how the behavior of mineralized yet compliant tissues can be tuned by the degree of mineralization. In this work, a synthesis route to tune the structure and mechanical response of agarose gels via ionic crosslinking and mineralization has been developed. A combination of experimental techniques demonstrates that crosslinking via cooperative hydrogen bonding in agarose gels is disturbed by calcium ions, but they promote ionic crosslinking that modifies the agarose network. Further, it is shown that the rearrangement of the hydrogel network helps to accommodate precipitated minerals into the network -in other words, the hydrogel self-adapts to the precipitated mineral- while maintaining the viscoelastic behavior of the hydrogel, despite the reinforcement caused by mineralization. This work not only provides a synthesis route to design biologically inspired soft composites, but also helps to understand the change of properties that biomineralization can cause to biological tissues, organisms and biofilms.

Abstract
У статті наведено результати досліджень процесів набухання і розчинення альгінату натрію, йота-карагінану і агару у вершках з метою обґрунтування способу їх введення в емульсійно-пінну систему вершковогокрему. Встановлено, що під час охолодження збитої маси полісахариди утворюють драглеподібний каркас, що запобі-гає її розшаруванню і надає системі стабільності в період часу існування.Вивчені функціонально-технологічних властивості досліджуваних гідроколоїдів дозволяє розширити спектр їхньогозастосування, покращити технологічні показники якості вершкових кремів із зменшеною часткою жиру, збільшититемпературний інтервал оздоблення. Із урахуванням органолептичних і фізико-хімічних показників якості готовоїпродукції визначено умови введення альгінату натрію і карагінану, раціональні концентрації їхнього використання.

Abstract
Low methyl-esterified pectins obtained from the cell walls of the campion (SV, SV>300), tansy (TV, TV>300) and duckweed (LM, LM>300) callus cultures and apple pectin (AP, Classic AU 701) were used as the carriers for colon delivery of prednisolone. The pectins with molecular weight more than 300kDa (SV>300, TV>300, LM>300) formed gels which exhibited the higher gel strength. The higher gel strength of these gels appeared to be related to the higher Mw and the lower degree of methylesterification (DE) of these pectins. Release aspects of prednisolone in the simulated gastric (pH 1.25), intestinal (pH 7.0) and colonic (pH 7.0+pectinase) media were investigated. The LM-5%, AP-3% and AP-5% beads destroyed in simulated intestinal medium probably due to the higher DE of the LM and AP pectins. The SV>300-3% and TV>300-3% prednisolone loaded bead systems showed a high stability at pH 1.25 and pH 7.0. Prednisolone release occurred in a larger extent in colonic medium due to the enzymatic erosion of the beads. The SV>300-3% and TV>300-3% particles showed a more controlled release that appeared to be related to the lower DE, rhamnogalacturonan content, rhamnogalacturonan I branching and the higher linearity and Mw of the TV>300 and SV>300 pectins, as well as to the higher gel strength. This in vitro study suggests that calcium pectinate gel beads obtained from callus cultures pectins can be proposed as potential systems for colon-targeted drug delivery.

Abstract
In this study, ibuprofen-loaded calcium alginate beads (CABs) with varying amounts of non-cross-linked calcium (NCL-Ca) were prepared using different washing methods. The influence of NCL-Ca on beads properties was investigated. Increasing the number or duration of washes led to significant decreases in the amount of NCL-Ca whereas the impact of the volume of washes was not significant. Approximately 70% of the initial amount of Ca(2+) was NCL-Ca which was removable by washing while only 30% was cross-linked (CL-Ca). Ca(2+) release from the CABs was bimodal; NCL-Ca was burst-released followed by a slower release of CL-Ca. Washing methods and the amount of NCL-Ca had significant influences on the encapsulation efficiency, beads weight, beads swelling, drug release profile and the mucoadhesiveness of CABs. This study highlighted the importance of washing methods and the amount of NCL-Ca to establish CABs properties and understand their behaviour in the simulated intestinal fluids (SIFs).

Abstract
Pectinate gel beads containing Thai mango seed kernel extract (MSKE, cultivar 'Fahlun') were developed and characterised for the purpose of colon-targeted delivery. The MSKE-loaded pectinate beads were prepared using ionotropic gelation with varying pectin-to-MSKE ratios, MSKE concentrations, and concentrations of two cross-linkers (calcium chloride and zinc acetate). The formulated beads were spherical in shape and ranged in size between 1.13 mm and 1.88 mm. Zinc-pectinate (ZPG) beads containing high amounts of MSKE showed complete entrapment efficiency (EE) of MSKE (100%), while calcium-pectinate (CPG) beads demonstrated 70% EE. The in vitro release tests indicated that MSKE-loaded CPG beads were unstable in both simulated gastric medium (SGM) and simulated intestinal medium (SIM), while MSKE-loaded ZPG beads were stable in SIM but unable to prevent the release of MSKE in SGM. The protection of ZPG beads with gastro-resistant capsules (Eudragit® L 100-55) resulted in stability in both SGM and SIM; they disintegrated immediately in simulated colonic medium containing pectinolytic enzymes. MSKE-loaded ZPG beads were stable at 4, 25 and 45 °C during the study period of four months. The present study revealed that ZPG beads in enteric-coated capsules might be a promising carrier for delivering MSKE to the colon.
