Effect of lipid type on betulin-stabilized water-in-oil Pickering emulsion: emulsion properties, in vitro digestion, and betulin bioaccessibility. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024. [PMID: 39258952 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Pickering emulsion delivery technique is widely acknowledged for its efficacy in serving as a carrier that can encapsulate functional components effectively. Previous studies have shown significant differences in the stability of Pickering emulsions composed of different oil phases and in the bioaccessibility of the encapsulated functional ingredients. This study therefore investigated the effects of different carrier oils in the betulin self-stabilized water-in-oil (W/O) Pickering emulsion on the stability of the emulsion and bioaccessibility of betulin. RESULTS The results showed that the oil type was one of the main factors affecting the stability of the emulsion. Palm oil and coconut oil provided better storage stability and centrifugal stability due to the high saturated fatty acid content. The bioavailability of betulin correlated significantly with the composition and characteristics of fatty acids in carrier oils. Carrier oils rich in low-saturation long-chain fatty acids tended to release more free fatty acids (FFAs), thus forming larger and more mixed micelles with stronger swelling and dissolution ability, resulting in a relatively high bioaccessibility of betulin. In contrast, the bioaccessibility of betulin in the emulsion prepared by coconut oil (with high saturated fatty acid content) was relatively low (1.17%). CONCLUSION The results of this study indicate that selecting an appropriate carrier oil is important for the design of self-stabilized W/O Pickering emulsions to improve the bioaccessibility of betulin and other lipophilic bioactivities effectively. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:53655-53670.

Abstract
Critical metals such as rare earths are essential for important industrial applications and for producing high-tech materials. Currently, the development of alternative and non-conventional biomaterials has gained significant interest. This work investigated the use of crosslinked sericin-alginate-based natural polymeric particles for the removal of rare earths from water. Affinity tests showed that sericin-alginate/polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether had the highest potential for capturing europium (0.258 mmol/g and 94.33%) and erbium (0.259 mmol/g and 94.55%). Next, erbium was selected based on the affinity with sericin-alginate/polyethylene glycol diglycidyl to investigate the effect of dose/pH, biosorption kinetics, isothermal equilibrium, desorption/reuse, and selectivity. The effect of dose and pH showed that 8.0 g/L (95.91%) and pH 5.0 (97.53%) were more efficient in capturing erbium. The biosorption kinetics showed that the equilibration time was reached within 210 min. The PSO and EMTR models effectively represented the kinetics data. The isothermal equilibrium revealed that the maximum uptake capacity for erbium was 0.641 mmol/g. The isothermal curves better fit the Dubinin-Radushkevich (55 °C) and Langmuir (25 and 40 °C) models. Thermodynamic quantitates indicated that erbium uptake was spontaneous, governed by entropic changes, and endothermic. The recovery of Er3+ was greater than 98% and the reuse of the eluent in the cycles enriched the Er3+ load 10-times (1.0 to 9.91 mmol/L). The beads also showed better performance for capturing Er3+ and Eu3+ with other coexisting ions. Characterization analyzes revealed the ion exchange mechanism between Ca2+/Er3+ prevailed in the Er3+ removal. Thus, the results pointed out that crosslinked sericin-alginate can be used as an alternative and promising biosorbent to remove and recover rare earths.

Abstract
The problems caused by the pollution of the environment by petroleum polymers in recent years have caused researchers to think of replacing petroleum polymers with biodegradable and natural polymers. The aim of this research was to produce composite film of chitosan (Chit)/zero-valent iron (Fe) nanoparticles/oregano essence (Ess) (Chit/Fe/Ess). Central composite design was used to study physical, morphological, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of films. The results showed that with the increase of iron nanoparticles and oregano essence, the thickness of the film increased. The moisture, solubility and water vapor permeability of the film decreased with the increase of iron nanoparticles and oregano essence. The results of the mechanical test showed that with the increase of iron nanoparticles and oregano essence, the tensile strength and elongation at break point decreased. Iron nanoparticles and oregano essence increased significantly the antioxidant activity of the film. The results of the antimicrobial activity of the prepared films show that the addition of iron nanoparticles and oregano essence enhanced the antimicrobial activity of the film against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that iron nanoparticles were physically combined with chitosan polymer. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) results confirmed the physical presence of iron nanoparticles and oregano essence in the polymer matrix. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the surface of nanocomposite films is more heterogeneous than chitosan. Iron nanoparticles and oregano essence could delay the thermal decomposition of chitosan and increase the thermal stability of chitosan film.

Abstract
Over the years, polysaccharides such as chitosan, alginate, hyaluronic acid, k-carrageenan, xanthan gum, carboxymethyl cellulose, pectin, and starch, alone or in combination with proteins and/or synthetic polymers, have been used to engineer an extensive portfolio of hydrogels with remarkable features. The application of polysaccharide-based hydrogels has the potential to alleviate challenges related to bioavailability, solubility, stability, and targeted delivery of phytocompounds, contributing to the development of innovative and efficient drug delivery systems and functional food formulations. This review highlights the current knowledge acquired on the preparation, features and applications of polysaccharide/phytocompounds hydrogel-based hybrid systems in wound management, drug delivery, functional foods, and food industry. The structural, functional, and biological requirements of polysaccharides and phytocompounds on the overall performance of such hybrid systems, and their impact on the application domains are also discussed.

Abstract
The application of plant essential oils in the food industry is often hindered by their poor water solubility and high volatilize. Encapsulation has emerged as an effective solution to this problem. This study focuses on the preparation of Fructus Ligustri Lucidi essential oil gel spheres (FEOH) based sodium alginate and gelatin. The optimum formulation for FEOH was established by Box-Behnken Design response surface testing, resulting in a composition of 10 % FEO, 5 % TW20 and 2 % CaCl2. This formulation achieved an encapsulation efficiency of 85.56 %. FTIR and SEM results indicated the successful encapsulation of FEO within the gel spheres. Furthermore, DSC and TGA results showed that encapsulation enhanced the thermal stability of the essential oil. At room temperature, the water content of FEOH exceeded 90 %, and it showed the highest swelling ratio of 62.5 % in an alkaline medium at different pH conditions. The in vitro release behavior showed that FEOH was released up to 85.28 % in oil-based food simulants within 2 h. FEOH showed strong antibacterial activity, with a Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of 128 mg/mL against Staphylococcus aureus and 256 mg/mL against Escherichia coli. The gel spheres obtained in this research show significant potential as food preservatives in food matrices.

Abstract
Silver-Carrageenan (Ag/Carr) nanocomposite film for food packing application by the green method using Argemone albiflora leaf extract has been developed in this study. Different plant parts of Argemone albiflora (blue stem prickly poppy) are used all over the world for the treatment of microbial infections, jaundice, skin diseases etc. GC-MS analysis was used to examine the phytochemical found in the Argemone albiflora leaf extract which reduces the metal ions to nanoscale. The biopolymer employed in the synthesis of nanocomposite film was carrageenan, a natural carbohydrate (polysaccharide) extracted from edible red seaweeds. We developed a food packing that is biodegradable, eco-friendly, economical and free from harmful chemicals. These films possess better UV barrier and mechanical and antimicrobial properties with 1 mM AgNO3 solution. The presence of silver nanoparticles in the carrageenan matrix was evident from FESEM. The mechanical properties were analysed by a Universal testing machine (UTM) and different properties like water vapour permeability (WVP), moisture content (MC) and total soluble matter (TSM) important for food packing applications were also analysed. The antimicrobial properties of the synthesized film samples were studied against E. coli and S. aureus pathogenic bacteria. These films were employed for the storage of cottage cheese (dairy product) and strawberries (fruit). This packing increased the shelf life of the packed food effectively. Ag/Carr films are biodegradable within four weeks.

Abstract
Considering the importance of reducing the use of chemical preservatives in food and the increasing attention of consumers to consume food products with minimal additives, the main goal of this research was to study the effect of use of chemical (calcium propionate) and biological (Lactobacillus plantarum) preservatives on increasing shelf life of yufka paste considering its physicochemical and microbial characteristics. For this purpose, three samples of yufka paste were prepared by adding concentrations of 103, 105, and 107 cfu/mL of L. plantarum individually and three samples of paste were prepared by adding the same amount of bacteria in combination with 0.3% calcium propionate and these samples were compared with the control sample (without preservative) and the sample only containing 0.3% calcium propionate. The obtained results showed that different treatments and time had a significant effect on physicochemical properties including pH, moisture, and protein of yufka paste (p < .05). The results of the survival of L. plantarum showed that with increasing time, the survival rate of bacteria increased (p < .05). The pH of the samples showed that the L. plantarum has a significant effect on controlling the chemical quality of yufka during storage. The count of mold and yeast in the combined use of L. plantarum and 0.3% propionate was lower than the single use of propionate chemical preservative, which indicated the very good effect of the green preservative in controlling the moldy spoilage of yufka. Low concentrations of bacteria showed better antimold results than treatments containing bacteria and propionate in a combined form, propionate or control treatment.

Abstract
This study aims to develop polylactic acid (PLA)-based packaging films with imparted antimicrobial properties and enhanced physical characteristics by evaluating the likely interaction among multiple film components. For this purpose; epoxidized soybean oil (ES) (20 %) serves as a plasticizer, spruce resin (SR) (15 %) functions as both a plasticizer and antimicrobial agent, ZnO (0.1 %) acts as a nanofiller and antimicrobial, and finally thyme and clove essential oil mixture (5 % and 10 %) serves as an antimicrobial agent were incorporated to PLA film formulation. Composite materials were prepared by the solvent casting method using methylene chloride as the solvent. The developed films were characterized in terms of physical, mechanical, thermal, and antimicrobial properties. Tensile strength (59 MPa) and elastic modulus (2625 MPa) of the neat PLA film gradually decreased to 8.99 MPa and 725.4 MPa, respectively, with the sequential addition of all components, indicating enhanced flexibility. SR, ZnO, and EOs significantly imparted antimicrobial property to the PLA film as demonstrated by the inhibition zone of 13.83 mm and 15.67 mm observed for E. coli and S. aureus, respectively. The barrier properties of the films were enhanced by the addition of SR and ZnO; however, EOs increased the water vapor permeability from 0.080 to 0.090 g.mm/m2.day.kPa compared to the neat PLA film. Principal component and hierarchical cluster analysis enabled the successful discrimination of the films, demonstrating how the film properties are affected by the film components. Therefore, this study suggests that selection of a proper combination is essential to highly benefit from the multicomponent film systems for designing alternative food packaging materials with desired properties.

Abstract
Encapsulation has been widely used as the protection of essential oils, which gives the possibility of their implementation as food preservatives. In this study, Perilla frutescens L. essential oil (PLEO) microcapsule powders were prepared firstly by spray drying method using octenyl succinic anhydride starch (OSAs) as wall material, and then they were further encapsulated by sodium alginate and chitosan via polyelectrolyte complex coacervates method. The best results were obtained by using 4 % of OSAs-PLEO microcapsule powders, 2 % of sodium alginate and 1.5 % of chitosan producing PLEO hydrogel beads with encapsulation efficiency of 61.29 % and loading degree of 41.11 %. Morphology observation showed PLEO hydrogel beads was a millimeter scale spherical particle. FTIR assay confirmed the physical embedding of OSAs on PLEO and the formation of complex coacervates between sodium alginate and chitosan. TG and DSC assay showed the chitosan/alginate/OSAs complex coacervates as wall materials substantially improved the thermal stability of PLEO. Besides, PLEO hydrogel beads had a better stability in aqueous and acidic food formulations, which achieved a complete and prolonged release of PLEO. The Peppas-Sahlin model was the best approach for PLEO release profile, and release phenomenon was mainly governed by Fickian diffusion.

Abstract
The flax seed cake is a waste product from flax oil extraction. Adding value to this wasted material aligns with the concept of circularity. In this study, we explored zein protein conjugation with flax mucilage for packaging material development. Although both flax mucilage and zein have excellent film-forming properties, they lack the required mechanical properties for industrial processing and are sensitive to high humidity. We present a simple and non-toxic one-pot method for developing the novel flax mucilage/zein conjugate. Where the flax mucilage undergoes oxidation to form aldehyde groups, which then react with zein's amino groups in a glycation process. The conjugates were analyzed using different techniques. The flax mucilage conjugate had a water-holding capacity of 87-62%. Increasing the zein content improved the surface smoothness of the films. On the other hand, higher levels of zein led to a significant decrease in film solubility (p < 0.05). The flax mucilage conjugate exhibited thermoplastic and elastic properties; revealing Young's modulus of 1-3 GPa, glass transition temperature between 49 °C and 103 °C and excellent processability with various industrial techniques. Showing its potential as a sustainable alternative to traditional plastics.

Abstract
In this study, thyme essential oil (essential oil to total lipid: 14.23, 20, 25, and 33.33%)-burdened nanoliposomes with/without maltodextrin solution were infused with natural hydrogels fabricated using equal volumes (1:1, v/v) of pea protein (30%) and gum Arabic (1.5%) solutions. The production process of the solutions infused with gels was verified using FTIR spectroscopy. In comparison to the nanoliposome solution (NL1) containing soybean lecithin and essential oil, the addition of maltodextrin (molar ratio of lecithin to maltodextrin: 0.80, 0.40, and 0.20 for NL2, NL3, and NL4, respectively) to these solutions led to a remarkable shift in particle size (487.10-664.40 nm), negative zeta potential (23.50-38.30 mV), and encapsulation efficiency (56.25-67.62%) values. Distortions in the three-dimensional structure of the hydrogel (H2) constructed in the presence of free (uncoated) essential oil were obvious in the photographs when compared to the control (H1) consisting of a pea protein-gum Arabic matrix. Additionally, the incorporation of NL1 caused visible deformations in the gel (HNL1). Porous surfaces were dominant in H1 and the hydrogels (HNL2, HNL3, and HNL4) containing NL2, NL3, and NL4 in the SEM images. The most convenient values for functional behaviors were found in H1 and HNL4, followed by HNL3, HNL2, HNL1, and H2. This hierarchical order was also valid for mechanical properties. The prominent hydrogels in terms of essential oil delivery throughout the simulated gastrointestinal tract were HNL2, HNL3, and HNL4. To sum up, findings showed the necessity of mediators such as maltodextrin in the establishment of such systems.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 232:123381. [PMID: 36731703 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to develop a natural and multiparticulate carrier of k-carrageenan (k-Car) and sericin (Ser) for encapsulation of indomethacin (IND) in order to minimize gastrointestinal effects caused by immediate-release. Increasing the amount of IND in the formulations subtly reduced the entrapment efficiency (EE) and drug loading (DL) due to matrix saturation. Sericin was essential to improve EE and DL when compared to pure k-Car (EE > 90 % and DL > 47 %) with suitable particle sizes (1.3461 ± 0.1891-1.7213 ± 0.1586 mm). The incorporation and integrity of IND in the particles were confirmed by analytical techniques of HPLC, XRD, FTIR, and SEM. Additionally, the k-Car/Ser matrix was pH-responsive with low IND release at pH 1.2 and extended-release at pH 6.8. The Weibull model had an adequate fit to the experimental data with R2aju 0.950.99 and AIC 82.4-24.9, with curves in parabolic profile (b < 1) and indicative of a controlled drug-release mechanism by diffusion. Besides, k-Car/Ser/IND and placebo were not cytotoxic (cell viability > 85 % at 150-600 μM) for the Caco-2 cell line. Therefore, the polymeric matrix is gastro-resistant, stable, and biocompatible to carry indomethacin and deliver it to the intestinal environment.

Abstract
Cyclodextrin and its derivative (CDs) are natural building blocks for linking with other components to afford functional biomaterials. Hydrogels are polymer network systems that can form hydrophilic three-dimensional network structures through different cross-linking methods and are developing as potential materials in biomedical applications. Natural polysaccharide hydrogels (NPHs) are widely adopted in biomedical field with good biocompatibility, biodegradability, low cytotoxicity, and versatility in emulating natural tissue properties. Compared with conventional NPHs, CD regulated natural polysaccharide hydrogels (CD-NPHs) maintain good biocompatibility, while improving poor mechanical qualities and unpredictable gelation times. Recently, there has been increasing and considerable usage of CD-NPHs while there is still no review comprehensively introducing their construction, classification, and application of these hydrogels from the material point of view regarding biomedical fields. To draw a complete picture of the current and future development of CD-NPHs, we systematically overview the classification of CD-NPHs, and provide a holistic view on the role of CD-NPHs in different biomedical fields, especially in drug delivery, wound dressing, cell encapsulation, and tissue engineering. Moreover, the current challenges and prospects of CD-NPHs are discussed rationally, providing an insight into developing vibrant fields of CD-NPHs-based biomedicine, and facilitating their translation from bench to clinical medicine.

Abstract
Wound care is a global health issue with a financial burden of up to US $96.8 billion annually in the USA alone. Chronic non-healing wounds which show delayed and incomplete healing are especially problematic. Although there are more than 3000 dressing types in the wound management market, new developments in more efficient wound dressings will require innovative approaches such as embedding antibacterial additives into wound-dressing materials. The lack of novel antibacterial agents and the misuse of current antibiotics have caused an increase in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) which is estimated to cause 10 million deaths by 2050 worldwide. These ongoing challenges clearly indicate an urgent need for developing new antibacterial additives in wound dressings targeting microbial pathogens. Natural products and their derivatives have long been a significant source of pharmaceuticals against AMR. Scrutinising the data of newly approved drugs has identified plants as one of the biggest and most important sources in the development of novel antibacterial drugs. Some of the plant-based antibacterial additives, such as essential oils and plant extracts, have been previously used in wound dressings; however, there is another source of plant-derived antibacterial additives, i.e., those produced by symbiotic endophytic fungi, that show great potential in wound dressing applications. Endophytes represent a novel, natural, and sustainable source of bioactive compounds for therapeutic applications, including as efficient antibacterial additives for chronic wound dressings. This review examines and appraises recent developments in bioactive wound dressings that incorporate natural products as antibacterial agents as well as advances in endophyte research that show great potential in treating chronic wounds.

Abstract
Hundreds of millions of tons of food resources are wasted annually due to microbial contamination. Effective food packaging can prevent food contamination and wastage. However, traditional food packaging has the problem of low release of bioactive substances. This study aimed to prepare a pH-responsive polysaccharide hydrogel (GDPP) by double cross-linking of ester and hydrogen bonds that could result in a high release of bioactive substances and no residual peeling. The infrared results showed the existence of ester bonds in the hydrogel, and the scanning electron microscopy results showed the porous network structure of the hydrogel. The results of texture profile analysis and self-healing tests showed that GDPP-1 has good mechanical and self-healing properties. Moreover, the ester bond of the hydrogel broke in response to the pH in the environment, improving the swelling and release properties of the hydrogel. The equilibrium swelling ratio of GDPP-1 was greater than 1000%, and the release rate of bioactive substances was more than 80%. Notably, the results of peeling experiments showed that only 0.1 N external force was needed to separate the hydrogel from the salmon, and no residue was observed on the salmon surface. The final freshness test results showed that the hydrogel effectively prolonged the shelf life of refrigerated salmon for 3-6 days. These findings indicated that hydrogels could be used in food packaging to extend the shelf life of refrigerated food. Furthermore, their advantages of low cost and simple preparation can better meet the needs of food industry applications.

Abstract
Essential oils (EOs) are primarily isolated from medicinal plants and possess various biological properties. However, their low water solubility and volatility substantially limit their application potential. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to improve the solubility and stability of the Mosla Chinensis (M. Chinensis) EO by forming an inclusion complex (IC) with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). Furthermore, the IC formation process was investigated using experimental techniques and molecular modeling. The major components of M. Chinensis 'Jiangxiangru' EOs were carvacrol, thymol, o-cymene, and terpinene, and its IC with β-CD were prepared using the ultrasonication method. Multivariable optimization was studied using a Plackett-Burman design (step 1, identifying key parameters) followed by a central composite design for optimization of the parameters (step 2, optimizing the key parameters). SEM, FT-IR, TGA, and dissolution experiments were performed to analyze the physicochemical properties of the ICs. In addition, the interaction between EO and β-CD was further investigated using phase solubility, molecular docking, and molecular simulation studies. The results showed that the optimal encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity of EO in the ICs were 86.17% and 8.92%, respectively. Results of physicochemical properties were different after being encapsulated, indicating that the ICs had been successfully fabricated. Additionally, molecular docking and dynamics simulation showed that β-CD could encapsulate the EO component (carvacrol) via noncovalent interactions. In conclusion, a comprehensive methodology was developed for determining key parameters under multivariate conditions by utilizing two-step optimization experiments to obtain ICs of EO with β-CD. Furthermore, molecular modeling was used to study the mechanisms involved in molecular inclusion complexation.

Abstract
Implementing novel oral drug delivery systems with controlled drug release behavior is valuable in cancer therapy. Herein, a green synthetic approach based on the sol-gel technique was adopted to prepare MgFe2O4 nanoparticles at different calcination temperatures using citric acid as a chelating/combustion agent. In this context, pH-responsive and magnetic carboxymethyl starch/alginate hydrogel beads (CMCS-SA) containing the MgFe2O4 nanoparticles were developed as potential drug carriers for the anticancer drug (Doxorubicin, Dox) release in simulated gastrointestinal fluids. Furthermore, in vitro release behaviors validated that these beads illustrated excellent stability in the simulated stomach liquids. In contrast, the data in simulated intestinal fluids showed sustained release of Dox because of their pH-sensitive swelling characteristics. Notably, applying an external magnetic field (EMF) could accelerate drug release from the beads. The in vitro release of drugs from gel beads was mainly accomplished by a combination of diffusion, swelling and erosion. Moreover, the cell cytotoxicity test and laser confocal results showed no harmful effects on normal cells (3T3) but were significant cytotoxic to colon cancer cell lines (HCT116) by drug-loaded hydrogel beads. Therefore, the prepared gel beads could be qualified as latent platforms for controlling the release of anticancer drugs in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Curcumin (Cur) is an anti-inflammatory polyphenol that can be complexed with polymeric cyclodextrin (CD) to improve solubility and bioavailability. The aim of the present work was to prepare a CurCD hydrogel to treat inflammatory skin conditions. Epichlorohydrin-β-CD (EpiβCD) was used as polymeric CD. To characterize the binary system, solid-state and in-solution studies were performed. Afterwards, an experimental design was performed to optimize the hydrogel system. Finally, the CurEpiβCD hydrogel system was tested for anti-inflammatory activity using a HaCat psoriasis cell model. Co-grinded Cur/EpiβCD binary system showed a strong interaction and Curcumin solubility was much improved. Its combination with Pluronic® F-127/hyaluronate hydrogel demonstrated an improvement in release rate and Curcumin permeation. After testing its anti-inflammatory activity, the system showed a significant reduction in IL-6 levels. Hydrogel-containing CurEpiβCD complex is a great alternative to treat topical inflammatory diseases.
