Premjit Y, Pandey S, Mitra J. Encapsulation of probiotics in freeze-dried calcium alginate and κ-carrageenan beads using definitive screening design: A comprehensive characterisation and in vitro digestion study. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 258:129279. [PMID: 38262834 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129279] [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: 09/03/2023] [Revised: 12/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 01/25/2024]
Abstract
This research aimed to evaluate the encapsulation of the probiotic strain, Streptococcus thermophilus, in hydrogels employing sodium alginate (SA) with κ-carrageenan (κC) in gelation baths with varying salt concentrations (CaCl2 and KCl) followed by freeze-drying. The experimentation was conducted at varying levels of κC (0-0.5 % w/v) and SA (2-4 %). Freeze-dried hydrogels were evaluated based on encapsulation efficiency and loss of viability and further characterised. The study could successfully establish an encapsulation efficiency of 87.814 % and a viability loss of 1.201 log CFU·g-1 for the optimised samples. The SEM micrographs of the optimised Ca-alginate/κC hydrogels exhibited a much denser network with fewer pores. The influence of SA/κC in the beads was confirmed by FTIR and DSC, where distinct peak shifts were observed, which indicated the presence of κC and SA polymers. The probiotic survival under simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) conditions, performed in accordance with the INFOGEST protocol, indicated that the optimised Ca-alginate/κC beads had a lower rate of release in the gastric phase and a much higher rate of survival and release in the intestinal phase than the control sample. The swelling behaviour of beads varied due to varying pH in both gastric and intestinal phases, and the κC in the optimised beads affected the swelling ratio significantly.

Abstract
The three-dimensional (3D) spheroid cell culture model is crucial in screening anticancer drugs in vitro and understanding tumor cell behavior. However, the current in vitro models require highly skilled techniques. Here, we present an in vitro, tumor-mimetic, self-detachable, cancer cell spheroid model that provides the confined space of a tumor microenvironment, convenient spheroid retrieval, immunostaining, treatment, and imaging. We formed a void space within alginate macrobeads by ionic disintegration at a specific region inside. The macrobeads were further destabilized with bovine serum albumin to retrieve the spheroid cultured within the void space. Quantitative analysis of the immunofluorescence images of the cultured spheroids showed enhanced expressions of the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and carbonic anhydrase-9 (CA-9), like monolayer cultures of cancer cells under hypoxic conditions (0.2% oxygen). Furthermore, adding CoCl2 to the cell culture media induces even higher amounts of HIF-1α and CA-9 in the cultured spheroids. In conclusion, the present work highlighted the in vitro spheroid model, which is closer to the tumor microenvironment and has user-friendly cell seeding, spheroid retrieval, and immunostaining steps.

Abstract
A new two-step method is suggested for the preparation of homogeneous alginate gels. In the first step, alginate chains are weakly bonded by Ca2+ ions in an aqueous solution with a low pH. In the next step, the gel is immersed into a strong solution of CaCl2 to finalize the cross-linking process. Homogeneous alginate gels preserve their integrity in aqueous solutions with a pH ranging from 2 to 7 and ionic strength in the interval from 0 to 0.2 M, at temperatures ranging from room temperature up to 50 °C, and can be used in biomedical applications. The immersion of these gels into aqueous solutions with low pH induces the partial breakage of ionic bonds between chains (treated as gel degradation). This degradation affects the equilibrium and transient swelling of homogeneous alginate gels and makes them sensitive to the history of loading and environmental conditions (pH, ionic strength and temperature of aqueous solutions). As sensitivity to the environmental stimuli is a characteristic feature of polymer networks connected by catch bonds, homogeneous alginate gels may serve as a simple model, mimicking the behavior of more sophisticated structures in living matter.

Abstract
Gums are polysaccharide compounds obtained from natural sources, such as plants, algae and bacteria. Because of their excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, as well as their ability to swell and their sensitivity to degradation by the colon microbiome, they are regarded as interesting potential drug carriers. In order to obtain properties differing from the original compounds, blends with other polymers and chemical modifications are usually applied. Gums and gum-derived compounds can be applied in the form of macroscopic hydrogels or can be formulated into particulate systems that can deliver the drugs via different administration routes. In this review, we present and summarize the most recent studies regarding micro- and nanoparticles obtained with the use of gums extensively investigated in pharmaceutical technology, their derivatives and blends with other polymers. This review focuses on the most important aspects of micro- and nanoparticulate systems formulation and their application as drug carriers, as well as the challenges related to these formulations.

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
During the past decades, many researchers have tried to encapsulate medicines in biopolymer nanogels as injectable medicines. In the present study, dual-responsive bovine serum albumin (BSA)-loaded nanogels prepared from sodium alginate grafted poly (N-vinyl caprolactam) (PNVCL) have been reported. First, PNVCL-g-sodium alginate (PNVCL-g-Alg) was synthesized through free radical polymerization, and then nanogels were obtained from ionic crosslinking of sodium alginate in the presence of BSA. FTIR spectra showed that PNVCL-g-Alg nanogels were successfully prepared. Turbidimetry and rheometry analyses demonstrated the cloud point temperature near the human body. Particle size was evaluated using FE-SEM and dynamic light scattering and it was found that the size of particles in dry and swollen state are about 30 and 280 nm, respectively. The effect of temperature and pH on BSA release was evaluated. By comparing the drug release behavior, we found that the release of the protein at the temperature above the cloud point is faster than that at the temperature below the cloud point. The pH sensitivity of BSA-loaded PNVCL-g-Alg was evaluated at pH 5.5 and 7.4 and showed that the drug release was faster at acidic pH than at neutral pH.

Encapsulation of Bromelain in Combined Sodium Alginate and Amino Acid Carriers: Experimental Design of Simplex-Centroid Mixtures for Digestibility Evaluation. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27196364.

Abstract
Bromelain has potential as an analgesic, an anti-inflammatory, and in cancer treatments. Despite its therapeutic effects, this protein undergoes denaturation when administered orally. Microencapsulation processes have shown potential in protein protection and as controlled release systems. Thus, this paper aimed to develop encapsulating systems using sodium alginate as a carrier material and positively charged amino acids as stabilizing agents for the controlled release of bromelain in in vitro tests. The systems were produced from the experimental design of centroid simplex mixtures. Characterizations were performed by FTIR showing that bromelain was encapsulated in all systems. XRD analyses showed that the systems are semi-crystalline solids and through SEM analysis the morphology of the formed systems followed a pattern of rough microparticles. The application of statistical analysis showed that the systems presented behavior that can be evaluated by quadratic and special cubic models, with a p-value < 0.05. The interaction between amino acids and bromelain/alginate was evaluated, and free bromelain showed a reduction of 74.0% in protein content and 23.6% in enzymatic activity at the end of gastric digestion. Furthermore, a reduction of 91.6% of protein content and 65.9% of enzymatic activity was observed at the end of intestinal digestion. The Lis system showed better interaction due to the increased stability of bromelain in terms of the amount of proteins (above 63% until the end of the intestinal phase) and the enzymatic activity of 89.3%. Thus, this study proposes the development of pH-controlled release systems aiming at increasing the stability and bioavailability of bromelain in intestinal systems.

Abstract
Hydrogels are three-dimensional crosslinked hydrophilic polymer networks with great potential in drug delivery, tissue engineering, wound dressing, agrochemicals application, food packaging, and cosmetics. However, conventional synthetic polymer hydrogels may be hazardous and have poor biocompatibility and biodegradability. Algal polysaccharides are abundant natural products with biocompatible and biodegradable properties. Polysaccharides and their derivatives also possess unique features such as physicochemical properties, hydrophilicity, mechanical strength, and tunable functionality. As such, algal polysaccharides have been widely exploited as building blocks in the fabrication of polysaccharide-based hydrogels through physical and/or chemical crosslinking. In this review, we discuss the extraction and characterization of polysaccharides derived from algae. This review focuses on recent advances in synthesis and applications of algal polysaccharides-based hydrogels. Additionally, we discuss the techno-economic analyses of chitosan and acrylic acid-based hydrogels, drawing attention to the importance of such analyses for hydrogels. Finally, the future prospects of algal polysaccharides-based hydrogels are outlined.

Abstract
The use of natural food ingredients has been increased in recent years due to the negative health implications of synthetic ingredients. Natural bioactive compounds are important for the development of health-oriented functional food products with better quality attributes. The natural bioactive compounds possess different types of bioactivities, e.g., antioxidative, antimicrobial, antihypertensive, and antiobesity activities. The most common method for the development of functional food is the fortification of these bioactive compounds during food product manufacturing. However, many of these natural bioactive compounds are heat-labile and less stable. Therefore, the industry and researchers proposed the microencapsulation of natural bioactive compounds, which may improve the stability of these compounds during processing and storage conditions. It may also help in controlling and sustaining the release of natural compounds in the food product matrices, thus, providing bioactivity for a longer duration. In this regard, several advanced techniques have been explored in recent years for microencapsulation of bioactive compounds, e.g., essential oils, healthy oils, phenolic compounds, flavonoids, flavoring compounds, enzymes, and vitamins. The efficiency of microencapsulation depends on various factors which are related to natural compounds, encapsulating materials, and encapsulation process. This review provides an in-depth discussion on recent advances in microencapsulation processes as well as their application in food systems.

Abstract
Polysaccharides are complex macromolecules long regarded as energetic storage resources or as components of plant and fungal cell walls. They have also been described as plant mucilages or microbial exopolysaccharides. The development of glycosciences has led to a partial and difficult deciphering of their other biological functions in living organisms. The objectives of glycobiochemistry and glycobiology are currently to correlate some structural features of polysaccharides with some biological responses in the producing organisms or in another one. In this context, the literature focusing on bioactive polysaccharides has increased exponentially during the last two decades, being sometimes very optimistic for some new applications of bioactive polysaccharides, notably in the medical field. Therefore, this review aims to examine bioactive polysaccharide, taking a critical look of the different biological activities reported by authors and the reality of the market. It focuses also on the chemical, biochemical, enzymatic, and physical modifications of these biopolymers to optimize their potential as bioactive agents.

Abstract
An important principle in the development of oral insulin is to protect insulin from the harsh conditions of the stomach and release it in a controlled manner in the intestine. In the present study, novel insulin-loaded porous starch-alginate hydrogel systems (In-S-Alg) including In-MS-Alg (prepared with porous maize starch), In-WS-Alg (porous waxy maize starch), and In-RS-Alg (porous rice starch) were successfully developed. As a representative, In-MS-Alg was further coated with gelatinized-retrograded high amylose maize starch (HA) films with different thicknesses to prepare In-MS-HA/Alg hydrogel beads for improving the functionality of controlled release of insulin under the action of α-amylase. The In-S-Alg and In-MS-HA/Alg hydrogel beads were evaluated in terms of structural and morphological properties, encapsulation effect on insulin as well as its release behavior. The results show that insulin was distributed in the pores and cavities of porous starch granules. In In-MS-HA/Alg hydrogel beads, insulin was increasingly blocked inside porous starch with the increased thickness of the HA film. Encapsulation efficiency of insulin in all In-S-Alg and In-MS-HA/Alg hydrogel beads was >80%. Amazingly, both the hydrogel beads successfully achieved the goal of triggered release upon pH changes and α-amylase addition. Most of the insulin (about 90%) was retained in the simulated gastric fluid; while the release rate of insulin in the simulated intestinal fluid increased gradually, and was further accelerated in the presence of α-amylase. Furthermore, for the In-MS-HA/Alg hydrogel beads, the insulin release rate can be gradually reduced by increasing the thickness of the HA film, which provided the possibility to match the rate of increase of the blood glucose level after the intake of food with different glycemic indices. Therefore, the novel hydrogel prepared in this study may be a promising and safe delivery carrier for oral insulin.

Abstract
Due to its advantagessuch as ionic crosslinking, pH responsiveness, excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability and low price, alginate has become one of the most important natural polysaccharides extensively used in constructing desired delivery systems for food bioactive ingredients. In this review, the fundamental knowledge of alginate as a building block for construction of nutraceutical delivery systems is introduced. Then, various types of alginate-based nutraceutical delivery systems are classified and summarized. Furthermore, the future trends of alginate-based delivery systems are highlighted. Currently, alginate-based delivery systems include hydrogel, emulsion, emulsion-filled alginate hydrogel, nanoparticle, microparticle, core-shell particle, liposome, edible film, and aerogel. Although alginate has been widely used in the fabrication of food bioactive ingredient delivery systems, further efforts and improvements are still needed. For this purpose, the future perspectives of alginate-based delivery systems are discussed. The feasible research trends of alginate-based delivery systems include the development of novel large-scale commercial preparation technology, multifunctional delivery system based on alginate, alginate oligosaccharide-based delivery system and alginate-based oleogel. Overall, the objective of this review is to provide useful guidance for rational design and application of alginate-based nutraceutical delivery systems in the future.

Abstract
This study prepared a novel three-dimensional nanocomposite scaffold by the surface modification of PCL/chitosan nanofiber/net with alginate hydrogel microlayer, hoping to have the privilege of both nanofibers and hydrogels simultaneously. Bead free randomly oriented nanofiber/net (NFN) structure composed of chitosan and polycaprolactone (PCL) was fabricated by electrospinning method. The low surface roughness, good hydrophilicity, and high porosity were obtained from the NFN structure. Then, the PCL/chitosan nanofiber/net was coated with a microlayer of alginate containing neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) and conjunctiva mesenchymal stem cells (CJMSCs) as a new stem cell source. According to the cross-sectional FESEM, the scaffold shows a two-layer structure with interconnected pores in the range of 20 μm diameter. The finding revealed that the surface modification of nanofiber/net by alginate hydrogel microlayer caused lower inflammatory response and higher proliferation of CJMSCs than the unmodified scaffold. The initial burst release of NT-3 was 69% in 3 days which followed by a sustained release up to 21 days. The RT-PCR analysis showed that the expression of Nestin, MAP-2, and β-tubulin III genes were increased 6, 5.4, and 8.8-fold, respectively. The results revealed that the surface-modified biomimetic scaffold possesses enhanced biocompatibility and could successfully differentiate CJMSCs to the neuron-like cells.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to obtain a better and safer galactomannan-based material for drug release applications. A novel epoxy-crosslinked galactomannan hydrogel (EGH) was prepared from guar gum using 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether as a crosslinking agent. The diffusion rate constant of water molecules in freeze-dried EGH positively correlated with water uptake/equilibrium swelling rate (WU/ESR), and the water molecules participated in Fickian diffusion. The ESR, WU/ESR, and bovine serum albumin (BSA) loading capacity of a customized EGH with a crosslinking density of 48.9% were 48.7 ± 0.15 g/g, 95.3%, and 56.4 mg/g, respectively. The release of BSA from freeze-dried EGH was affected by the WU/ESR and the pH; the release equilibrium time was ~40 h at pH 1.2, decreasing to ~24 h at pH 7.4. Furthermore, the cumulative release rate increased from 63.5% to 80.7% and the t50 decreased from 59 to 41 min upon changing from the acidic to basic pH. The release process conformed to the Ritger-Peppas and Hixson-Crowell models, and represented Fickian diffusion and chain relaxation. The EGH showed no cytotoxicity toward HeLa cells. Together, these results demonstrate the properties of a novel galactomannan-based hydrogel that can potentially be employed as a vehicle for drug delivery.

Abstract
Vitamins, peptides, essential oils, and probiotics are examples of health beneficial constituents, which are nevertheless heat-sensitive and possess poor chemical stability. Various encapsulation methods have been applied to protect these constituents against thermal and chemical degradations. Encapsulates prepared by different methods and/or at different conditions exhibit different microstructures, which in turn differently influence the encapsulation efficiency as well as retention of encapsulated core materials. This review provides a summary of various microstructures resulted from the use of selected encapsulation methods or systems, namely, spray coating; co-extrusion; emulsion-, micelle-, and liposome-based; coacervation; and ionic gelation encapsulation, at different conditions. Subsequent effects of the different microstructures on encapsulation efficiency and retention of encapsulated core materials are mentioned and discussed. Encapsulates having compact microstructures resulted from the use of low-surface tension and low-viscosity encapsulants, high-stability encapsulation systems, lower loads of core materials to total solids of encapsulants and appropriate solidification conditions have proved to exhibit higher encapsulation efficiencies and better retention of encapsulated core materials. Encapsulates with hollow, dent, shrunken microstructures or thinner walls resulted from inappropriate solidification conditions and higher loads of core materials, on the other hand, possess lower encapsulation efficiencies and protection capabilities. Encapsulates having crack, blow-hole or porous microstructures resulted from the use of high-viscosity encapsulants and inappropriate solidification conditions exhibit the lowest encapsulation efficiencies and poorest protection capabilities. Compact microstructures and structures formed between ionic biopolymers could be used to regulate the release of encapsulated cores.

Abstract
Vitexin of Ficus deltoidea exhibits intestinal α-glucosidase inhibitory and blood glucose lowering effects. This study designs oral intestinal-specific alginate nanoparticulate system of vitexin. Nanospray-dried alginate, alginate/stearic acid and alginate-C18 conjugate nanoparticles were prepared. Stearic acid was adopted to hydrophobize the matrix and minimize premature vitexin release in stomach, whereas C-18 conjugate as immobilized fatty acid to sustain hydrophobic effect and drug release. Nanoparticles were compacted with polyethylene glycol (PEG 3000, 10,000 and 20,000). The physicochemical, drug release, in vivo blood glucose lowering and intestinal vitexin content of nanoparticles and compact were determined. Hydrophobization of alginate nanoparticles promoted premature vitexin release. Compaction of nanoparticles with PEG minimized vitexin release in the stomach, with stearic acid loaded nanoparticles exhibiting a higher vitexin release in the intestine. The introduction of stearic acid reduced vitexin-alginate interaction, conferred alginate-stearic acid mismatch, and dispersive stearic acid-induced particle breakdown with intestinal vitexin release. Use of PEG 10,000 in compaction brought about PEG-nanoparticles interaction that negated initial vitexin release. The PEG dissolution in intestinal phase subsequently enabled particle breakdown and vitexin release. The PEG compacted nanoparticles exhibited oral intestinal-specific vitexin release, with positive blood glucose lowering and enhanced intestinal vitexin content in vivo.
