Abstract
N-(sodium 2-hydroxypropylsulfonate) chitosan (HSCS), N-sulfonate chitosan (SCS) and N-isonicotinic sulfonate chitosan (ISCS) were prepared. The structures of the prepared chitosan derivatives were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy and elemental analysis (EA). Antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of these chitosan derivatives were evaluated in vitro. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of HSCS and SCS against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) were 0.625 mg/mL and 0.156 mg/mL, respectively. ISCS exhibited MIC values of 0.313 mg/mL and 0.078 mg/mL against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively. ISCS demonstrated superior antibacterial and antibiofilm properties compared to SCS and HSCS. These findings suggest that the incorporation of a pyridine structure into sulfonate chitosan enhances its antibacterial and antibiofilm activities, and the prepared ISCS has a promising application prospect for controlling the reproduction of microorganisms in the field of food packaging.

Abstract
Chitosan (CH) exhibits low antimicrobial activity. This study addresses this issue by modifying the chitosan with a sulfonamide derivative, 3-(4-(N,N-dimethylsulfonyl)phenyl)acrylic acid. The structure of the sulfonamide-chitosan derivative (DMS-CH) was confirmed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Nuclear magnetic resonance. The results of scanning electron microscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and X-ray diffraction indicated that the morphology changed to a porous nature, the thermal stability decreased, and the crystallinity increased in the DMS-CH derivative compared to chitosan, respectively. The degree of substitution was calculated from the elemental analysis data and was found to be moderate (42%). The modified chitosan exhibited enhanced antimicrobial properties at low concentrations, with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 50 µg/mL observed for B. subtilis and P. aeruginosa, and a value of 25 µg/mL for S. aureus, E. coli, and C. albicans. In the case of native chitosan, the MIC values doubled or more, with 50 µg/mL recorded for E. coli and C. albicans and 100 μg/mL recorded for B. subtilis, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa. Furthermore, toxicological examinations conducted on MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma) cell lines demonstrated that DMS-CH exhibited greater toxicity (IC50 = 225.47 μg/mL) than pure CH, while still maintaining significant safety limits against normal lung fibroblasts (WI-38). Collectively, these results suggest the potential use of the newly modified chitosan in biomedical applications.

Abstract
New amphiphilic low molecular weight chitosan-graft-nicotinic acid bearing decyl groups (LCND) was synthesized by two-step reaction and spontaneously assembled into cationic micelle by ultra-sonication method to improve water solubility and photostability properties of α-tocopherol. The chemical structure of LCND was characterized and physical properties of cationic micelle were evaluated. Results displayed that cationic micelle exhibited strong self-assemble ability with nanoscale spherical morphology and showed best loading ability with loading content of 18.50% when the feeding ratio of LCND to α-tocopherol reached 10:3. Meanwhile, the greatly enhanced water solubility, photostability and sustained release behavior of α-tocopherol in cationic micelle were observed. The cumulative release of α-tocopherol in cationic micelle reached up 82.18% within 96 h while free α-tocopherol was completely released within 10 h. Additionally, release kinetics models were also fitted. The LCND cationic micelle could be promising nanocarrier for improving the physicochemical properties of α-tocopherol in food fields.

Abstract
The synthesis of octenyl-succinylated chitosan with different degrees of substitution resulting from chemical modification of chitosan and controlled addition of octenyl succinic acid was investigated. The modified products were characterized using 1H NMR, FTIR, and XRD, and the degree of substitution was also determined. The properties of the modified chitosan oligosaccharide in solution were evaluated by surface tension and dye solubilization, finding that the molecules self-assembled when they are above the critical aggregation concentration. The two methods yielded consistent results, showing that the self-assembly was reduced with higher levels of substitution. The antimicrobial activity of the octanyl-succinylated chitosan oligosaccharide (OSA-COS) derivatives against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp cucumerinum was investigated by the Oxford cup method. While the acetylated COS derivatives were not significantly effective against either E coli or S. aureus, they showed significant antifungal activity toward F. oxysporum that was superior to that of COS. The modified product was found to form a stable emulsion when mixed with whey protein isolate. The emulsion formed by the highly substituted derivatives have a certain stability and loading efficiency, which can be used for the encapsulation and delivery of astaxanthin.

Abstract
To fabricate multifunctional nanoparticles (NPs) based on chitosan (CS) derivative, we first prepared quaternized CS (2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride CS, HTCC) via a one-step approach, then synthesized p-coumaric acid (p-CA) modified HTCC (HTCC-CA) for the first time through amide reaction, and finally fabricated a series of NPs (HTCC-CA NPs) using HTCC-CAs with different substitution degrees and sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) by ionic gelation. Newly-prepared HTCC and HTCC-CAs were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, elemental analysis (EA), full-wavelength UV scanning, silver nitrate titration, and Folin-Ciocalteu methods. DLS and TEM results demonstrated that three selected HTCC-CA NPs had moderate size (< 350 nm), good dispersion (PDI < 0.4), and positive zeta potential (11-20 mV). The HTCC-CA NPs had high antibacterial activity against six bacterial strains, and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were almost the same as the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values (250-1000 μg/mL). Also, the HTCC-CA NPs had good antioxidation (radical scavenging ratio > 65 %) and low cytotoxicity (relative cell viability >80 %) to the tested cells. Totally, HTCC-CA NPs with high antibacterial activity, great antioxidation, and low cytotoxicity might serve as new biomedical materials for promoting skin wound healing.

Current and emerging applications of saccharide-modified chitosan: a critical review. Biotechnol Adv 2023; 66:108172. [PMID: 37169103 DOI: 10.1016/j.biotechadv.2023.108172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Revised: 04/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/06/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
Chitin, as the main component of the exoskeleton of Arthropoda, is a highly available natural polymer that can be processed into various value-added products. Its most important derivative, i.e., chitosan, comprising β-1,4-linked 2-amino-2-deoxy-β-d-glucose (deacetylated d-glucosamine) and N-acetyl-d-glucosamine units, can be prepared via alkaline deacetylation process. Chitosan has been used as a biodegradable, biocompatible, non-antigenic, and nontoxic polymer in some in-vitro applications, but the recently found potentials of chitosan for in-vivo applications based on its biological activities, especially antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities, have upgraded the chitosan roles in biomaterials. Chitosan approval, generally recognized as a safe compound by the United States Food and Drug Administration, has attracted much attention toward its possible applications in diverse fields, especially biomedicine and agriculture. Even with some favorable characteristics, the chitosan's structure should be customized for advanced applications, especially due to its drawbacks, such as low drug-load capacity, low solubility, high viscosity, lack of elastic properties, and pH sensitivity. In this context, derivatization with relatively inexpensive and highly available mono- and di-saccharides to soluble branched chitosan has been considered a "game changer". This review critically reviews the emerging technologies based on the synthesis and application of lactose- and galactose-modified chitosan as two important chitosan derivatives. Some characteristics of chitosan derivatives and biological activities have been detailed first to understand the value of these natural polymers. Second, the saccharide modification of chitosan has been discussed briefly. Finally, the applications of lactose- and galactose-modified chitosan have been scrutinized and compared to native chitosan to provide an insight into the current state-of-the research for stimulating new ideas with the potential of filling research gaps.

Abstract
In this study, the chitosan backbone was functionalized with 2,2',4,4'-tetrahydroxybenzophenone by Schiff base, bonding the molecules into the repeating amine groups. The use of 1H NMR, FT-IR, and UV-Vis analyses provided compelling evidence of the structure of the newly developed derivatives. The deacetylation degree was calculated to be 75.35 %, and the degree of substitution was 5.53 % according to elemental analysis. The thermal analysis of samples using TGA demonstrated that CS-THB derivatives are more stable than chitosan itself. SEM was used to investigate the change in surface morphology. The improvement of the biological properties of chitosan was investigated in terms of its antibacterial activity against pathogenic antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The antioxidant properties showed an improvement in activity compared to chitosan by two times against ABTS radicals and four times against DPPH radicals. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory properties were investigated using normal skin cells (HBF4) and WBCs. Quantum chemistry calculations revealed that combining polyphenol with chitosan makes it more effective as an antioxidant than either chitosan or polyphenol alone. Our findings suggest that the new chitosan Schiff base derivative could be utilized for tissue regeneration applications.

The development of Cs-TMB was verified employing FT-IR, 1H NMR, the electronic spectrum, and elemental analysis. Antioxidant assays exhibited significant ameliorations of Cs-TMB, reporting scavenging activities of 69.67 ± 3.48 % and 39.65 ± 1.98 % for ABTS•+ and DPPH, respectively, while native chitosan showed scavenging ratios of 22.69 ± 1.13 % and 8.24 ± 0.4.1 % toward ABTS•+ and DPPH, respectively. Besides, Cs-TMB exerted significant antibacterial activity up to 90 % with remarkable bactericidal capacity against virulent gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria compared to the original chitosan. Furthermore, Cs-TMB exhibited a safe profile against normal fibroblast cells (HFB4). Interestingly, flow cytometric analysis showed that Cs-TMB demonstrated prominent anticancer properties of 52.35 ± 2.99 % against human skin cancer cells (A375), compared to 10.66 ± 0.55 % for Cs-treated cells. Moreover, Python and PyMOL in-house scripts were used to predict the interaction of Cs-TMB with the adenosine A1 receptor and visualized as a protein-ligand system submerged in a lipid membrane. Overall, these findings accentuate that Cs-TMB could be a favorable representative for wound dressing formulations and skin cancer treatment.

Abstract
In order to improve the antibacterial activity of chitosan and change its solubility, a novel water-soluble chitosan (CS)-nerol (N) derivative (CS-N) was prepared via Schiff base reaction and grafting reaction. FT-IR, NMR, XRD, TGA and SEM were used to characterize the structure and physicochemical properties, and in vitro antibacterial, antioxidant, and cellular assays were used to test for bioactivity and safety. The results revealed that the C6 hydroxyl group of CS was substituted with N, with a degree of substitution of 38 % for CS-N. Furthermore, compared to CS, CS-N demonstrated superior antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, as well as significant DPPH and ABTS free radical scavenging activity. Most importantly, CS-N did not harm HaCaT cells. In conclusion, this study provides a promising strategy for the design of chitosan derivatives with significant potential for application in pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic applications.

Abstract
Chitooligosaccharides (COS), an important biological functional component, are mainly extracted from marine products, but its raw materials are currently facing challenges such as marine resources pollution and demineralization. This study aimed to explore Trichoderma asperellum as a novel source to prepare COS. The COS were prepared by the enzymatic degradation of chitosan from T. asperellum, and single factor experiment and orthogonal designs were used to optimize the enzymatic conditions for the preparation of COS. The composition of COS was performed by thin-layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The results showed that the degree of deacetylation of T. asperellum chitosan was 87.59%, and its enzymatic hydrolysis yield was 89.37 % under optimized extraction conditions. Moreover, the composition of COS in T. asperellum included chitotriose, chitopentaose, and chitohexaose. Compared with shrimp shells, COS prepared from T. asperellum showed stronger antibacterial properties against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and Salmonella bacilli.

Abstract
p-Coumaric acid and caffeic acid were grafted onto chitosan through a non-radical synthesis method to improve the properties of chitosan and expand its application in food industry. Structural characterization demonstrated that the -COOH of the two phenolic acids were bonded to the -NH2 of the chitosan and formed an acylamino. The grafting ratios of p-coumaric acid-modified chitosan (Cm-CTS) and caffeic acid-modified chitosan (Cf-CTS) reached 10.30 % and 9.78 %, respectively. After modification, the water solubility of the chitosan greatly improved from 9.33 % (native chitosan, Nt-CTS) to 77.33 % (Cm-CTS) and 100 % (Cf-CTS). Besides, the involvement of phenolic acid and caffeic acid endowed the chitosan with strengthened antioxidation and antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Nt-CTS and the modified chitosans were coated on the pork surface. The results indicated that Nt-CTS effectively inhibited pork spoilage and the modified chitosans could further prolong the shelf life of pork.

Abstract
The modified natural biopolymers, recognized as environmentally friendly flocculants, are gaining tremendous attention in the field of water treatment. In this study, a novel hybrid flocculant with antibacterial activity, cinnamic acid (CA) conjugated N-(2-hydroxy)-propyl-3-trimethylammonium chitosan chloride (HTCC) derivative (HTCC-CA), was prepared via quaternary ammonium and amide reactions. The characterization, flocculation, and antibacterial activities were carried out to access the structural properties and potential application. The results of UV-vis, FT-TR, and 1H NMR confirmed the successful synthesis of HTCC-CA1-3 derivatives. XRD and TGA revealed the lower crystallinity and thermal stability of HTCC-CA1-3 derivatives than chitosan (CS). Bacterial flocculation and antibacterial tests indicated the excellent flocculation effect of HTCC-CA1-3 derivatives and showed high antibacterial activity for Escherichia coli suspension. Moreover, the mechanism of action of the derivatives was investigated via zeta potential measurements and scanning electron microscope, which can be summed up as the effective interaction between charges. The results proved that HTCC-CA derivatives are promising agents for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Chitosan obtained from abundant marine resources has been proven to have a variety of biological activities. However, due to its poor water solubility, chitosan application is limited, and the degradation products of chitosan oligosaccharides are better than chitosan regarding performance. Chitosan oligosaccharides have two kinds of active groups, amino and hydroxyl groups, which can form a variety of derivatives, and the properties of these derivatives can be further improved. In this review, the key structures of chitosan oligosaccharides and recent studies on chitosan oligosaccharide derivatives, including their synthesis methods, are described. Finally, the antimicrobial and antitumor applications of chitosan oligosaccharides and their derivatives are discussed.

Abstract
In this report, chitosan/zinc oxide (CS/ZnO) nanocomposite was synthesized using Sida acuta and assessed their antibacterial and photocatalytic properties. The formation of CS/ZnO nanocomposite was preliminary confirmed by colour change and UV-visible spectroscopy. The crystalline peaks related to CS and ZnO in CS/ZnO nanocomposite were demonstrated by XRD. Morphological analysis through FE-SEM and TEM showed a rod like appearance for ZnO NPs and agglomerated grains with rod shaped morphology was observed for the CS/ZnO nanocomposite. The peaks around 400-800 cm-1 in the IR spectrum of nanocomposite indicated the vibrations of metal-oxygen (ZnO), whereas bands at 1659 cm-1 and 1546 cm-1 indicated the presence of amine groups, which confirms the CS in the synthesized CS/ZnO nanocomposite. The CS/ZnO nanocomposite exhibited remarkable growth inhibition activity against B. subtilis and E. coli with 22 ± 0.3 and 16.5 ± 0.5 mm zone of inhibitions. In addition, CS/ZnO nanocomposite treated cotton fabrics also exhibited antibacterial activity against B. subtilis and E. coli. Furthermore, the ZnO NPs and nanocomposite showed time depended photodegradation activity and revealed 76% and 91% decomposition of CR under sunlight irradiation. In conclusion, our study revealed that the functionalization of biopolymer CS to the inorganic ZnO enhances the bio and catalytic properties.

Abstract
In this study, cinnamic acid (CA) conjugated hydroxypropyl chitosan (HPCS) derivatives (HPCS-CA) with different degrees of substitution (DS) were successfully synthesized. The reaction was divided into two steps: the first step was to modify chitosan (CS) to HPCS, and the second step was to graft CA onto HPCS. Structural characterization and properties were carried out employing elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The solubility test revealed the better water solubility of derivatives than CS. In addition, in vitro antibacterial and antibiofilm tests were performed. As expected, HPCS-CA derivatives exhibited good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli). The MIC and MBC of HPCS-CA derivatives could reach 256 μg/mL and 512 μg/mL, respectively. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) analysis proved the inhibitory effect of HPCS-CA derivatives on S. aureus and E. coli biofilms by disrupting the formation of biofilms, reducing the thickness of biofilms, and the number of live bacteria. These results suggest the potential applicability of HPCS-CA derivatives in the treatment of biofilm-associated infections and provide a practical strategy for the design of novel CS-based antibacterial materials.
