Abstract
Microbial polysaccharides (MPs) are biopolymers secreted by microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi during their metabolic processes. Compared to polysaccharides derived from plants and animals, MPs have advantages such as wide sources, high production efficiency, and less susceptibility to natural environmental influences. The most attractive feature of MPs lies in their diverse biological activities, such as antioxidative, anti-tumor, antibacterial, and immunomodulatory activities, which have demonstrated immense potential for applications in functional foods, cosmetics, and biomedicine. These bioactivities are precisely regulated by their sophisticated molecular structure. However, the mechanisms underlying this precise regulation are not yet fully understood and continue to evolve. This article presents a comprehensive review of the most representative species of MPs, including their fermentation and purification processes and their biomedical applications in recent years. In particular, this work presents an in-depth analysis into the structure-activity relationships of MPs across multiple molecular levels. Additionally, this review discusses the challenges and prospects of investigating the structure-activity relationships, providing valuable insights into the broad and high-value utilization of MPs.

Abstract
Gellan, an anionic heteropolysaccharide synthesized by Sphingomonas elodea, is an excellent gelling agent. However, its poor mechanical strength and high gelling temperature limit its application. Recent studies have reported that combining gellan with other polysaccharides achieves desirable properties for food- and biomaterial-related applications. This review summarizes the fabrication methods, functional properties, and potential applications of gellan-polysaccharide systems. Starch, pectin, xanthan gum, and konjac glucomannan are the most widely used polysaccharides in these composite systems. Heating-cooling and ionic-induced cross-linking approaches have been used in the fabrication of these systems. Composite gels fabricated using gellan and various polysaccharides exhibit different functional properties, possibly because of their distinct molecular interactions. In terms of applications, mixed gellan-polysaccharide systems have been extensively used in texture modification, edible coatings and films, bioactive component delivery, and tissue-engineering applications. Further scientific studies, including structural determinations of mixed systems, optimization of processing methods, and expansion of applications in food-related fields, are needed.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most commonly used anticancer drugs; however, its clinical application is greatly limited due to its toxicity and chemotherapy resistance. The delivery of DOX by liposomes (Lipos) can improve the blood circulation time in vivo and reduce toxic side effects, but the drug's accumulation in the tumor is often insufficient for effective treatment. In this study, we present a calcium cross-linked liposome gel for the encapsulation of DOX, demonstrating its superior long-term release capabilities compared to conventional Lipos. By leveraging this enhanced long-term release, we can enhance drug accumulation within tumors, ultimately leading to improved antitumor efficacy. Lipos were prepared using the thin-film dispersion method in this study. We utilized the ion-responsiveness of glutathione-gelatin (GSH-GG) to form the gel outside the Lipos and named the nanoparticles coated with GSH-GG on the outside of Lipos as Lipos@GSH-GG. The average size of Lipos@GSH-GG was around 342.9 nm, with a negative charge of -25.6 mV. The in vitro experiments revealed that Lipos@GSH-GG exhibited excellent biocompatibility and slower drug release compared to conventional Lipos. Further analysis of cellular uptake and cytotoxicity demonstrated that Lipos@GSH-GG loading DOX (DOX&Lipos@GSH-GG) exhibited superior long-term release effects and lower toxic side effects compared to Lipos loading DOX (DOX&Lipos). Additionally, the findings regarding the long-term release effect in vivo and the tumor accumulation within tumor-bearing mice of Lipos@GSH-GG suggested that, compared to Lipos, it demonstrated superior long-term release capabilities and achieved greater drug accumulation within tumors. In vivo antitumor efficacy experiments showed that DOX&Lipos@GSH-GG demonstrated superior antitumor efficacy to DOX&Lipos. Our study highlights Lipos@GSH-GG as a promising nanocarrier with the potential to enhance efficacy and safety by means of long-term release effects and may offer an alternative approach for effective antitumor therapy in the future.

Abstract
Injectable hydrogels are currently a topic of great interest in bone tissue engineering, which could fill irregular bone defects in a short time and avoid traditional major surgery. Herein, we developed an injectable gellan gum (GG)-based hydrogel for bone defect repair by blending nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) and magnesium sulfate (MgSO4). In order to acquire an injectable GG-based hydrogel with superior osteogenesis, nHA were blended into GG solution with an optimized proportion. For the aim of endowing this hydrogel capable of angiogenesis, MgSO4 was also incorporated. Physicochemical evaluation revealed that GG-based hydrogel containing 5% nHA (w/v) and 2.5 mM MgSO4 (GG/5%nHA/MgSO4) had appropriate sol-gel transition time, showed a porosity-like structure, and could release magnesium ions for at least 14 days. Rheological studies showed that the GG/5%nHA/MgSO4 hydrogel had a stable structure and repeatable self-healing properties. In-vitro results determined that GG/5%nHA/MgSO4 hydrogel presented superior ability on stimulating bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) to differentiate into osteogenic linage and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to generate vascularization. In-vivo, GG/5%nHA/MgSO4 hydrogel was evaluated via a rat cranial defect model, as shown by better new bone formation and more neovascularization invasion. Therefore, the study demonstrated that the new injectable hydrogel, is a favorable bioactive GG-based hydrogel, and provides potential strategies for robust therapeutic interventions to improve the repair of bone defect.

Abstract
Central nervous system (CNS) diseases are among the major health problems. However, blood-brain barrier (BBB) makes traditional oral and intravenous delivery of CNS drugs inefficient. The unique direct connection between the nose and the brain makes nasal administration a great potential advantage in CNS drugs delivery. However, nasal mucociliary clearance (NMCC) limits the development of drug delivery systems. Appropriate nasal gel viscosity alleviates NMCC to a certain extent, gels based on gellan gum, chitosan, carbomer, cellulose and poloxamer have been widely reported. However, nasal gel formulation design and key properties for alleviating NMCC have not been clearly discussed. This article summarizes gel formulations of different polymers in existing nasal gel systems, and attempts to provide a basis for researchers to conduct in-depth research on the key characteristics of gel matrix against NMCC.

Abstract
The purpose of the current investigation was to produce a novel functional composite biodegradable film by Gellan (Gla) and Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) biopolymers containing rosemary essential oils (REO) and evaluate their physicochemical and antimicrobial features. The film containing 5 % REO, due to its better mechanical properties (UTS = 13.44 ± 0.30 Mpa and SB = 21.14 ± 1.15 %) compared to other emulsified samples containing REO, was selected as the optimal film. Furthermore, it had less water vapor permeability (WVP = 6.60 ± 0.31 (g/mhPa) × 10-8) in comparison to control sample (8.21 ± 0.10 (g/mhPa) × 10-8) and the best color properties among the samples. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images didn't show the phenomenon of agglomeration and point accumulation of REO. Also, 5 % of REO contributed to the increased compactness of the film in comparison to the film without the REO. Based on the results of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra, no new chemical bonds were created by adding REO to the biopolymer substrate, and the REO was well dispersed and distributed among the Gla-CMC chains throughout the film substrate. Adding 5 % REO showed antioxidant effects. Considering the antimicrobial tests, all films containing REO had antimicrobial effects against the Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, and Pseudomonas fluorescens bacterial strains.

Methylene blue removal from aqueous solutions using a biochar/gellan gum hydrogel composite: Effect of agitation mode on sorption kinetics. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 232:123355.

Abstract
Hydrogel membranes are prepared by casting a mixture of gellan gum (associated with PVA) and biochar produced from a local Egyptian plant. The mesoporous material is characterized by a specific surface area close to 134 m2 g-1, a residue of 28 % (at 800 °C), and a pHPZC close to 6.43. After grinding, the material is tested for Methylene Blue sorption at pH 10.5: sorption capacity reaches 1.70 mmol MB g-1 (synergistic effect of the precursors). The sorption isotherms are fitted by both Langmuir and Sips eqs. MB sorption increases with temperature: the sorption is endothermic (∆H°: 12.9 kJ mol-1), with positive entropy (∆S°: 125 J mol-1 K-1). Uptake kinetics are controlled by agitation speed (optimum ≈200 rpm) and resistance to intraparticle diffusion. The profiles are strongly affected by the mode of agitation: the equilibrium time (≈180 min) is reduced to 20-30 min under sonication (especially at frequency: 80 kHz). The mode of agitation controls the best fitting equation: pseudo-first order rate agitation for mechanical agitation contrary to pseudo-second order rate under sonication. The sorption of MB is poorly affected by ionic strength (loss <6 % in 45 g L-1 NaCl solution). Desorption (faster than sorption) is completely achieved using 0.7 M HCl solution. At the sixth recycling, the loss in sorption is close to 5 % (≈ decrease in desorption efficiency). The process is successfully applied for the treatment of MB-spiked industrial solution: the color index decreases by >97 % with a sorbent dose close to 1 g L-1; a higher dose is required for maximum reduction of the COD (60 % at 3 g L-1).

Abstract
The W/O emulsion is a promising system. Its special structure can keep the sensory properties of fat while reducing the fat content. Improving the stability and physical properties of W/O emulsions is generally oriented toward outer oil-phase modified oil gels and inner water-phase modified inner hydrogels. In this paper, the research progress of internal aqueous gel was reviewed, and some gel factors suitable for internal aqueous gel and the gel mechanism of main gel factors were discussed. The advantages of this internal aqueous gel emulsion system allow its use in the field of fat substitutes and encapsulating substances. Finally, some shortcomings and possible research directions in the future were proposed, which would provide a theoretical basis for the further development of internal water-phase gelled W/O emulsion in the future.

Tribological and Rheological Properties of Poly(vinyl alcohol)-Gellan Gum Composite Hydrogels. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14183830.

Abstract
Polymeric poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based composite hydrogels are promising materials with various biomedical applications. However, their mechanical and tribological properties should be tailored for such applications. In this study, we report the fabrication of PVA-gellan gum (GG) composite hydrogels and determine the effect of GG content on their rheological and tribological properties. The rheology tests revealed an enhanced storage (elastic) modulus with increased gellan gum (GG) concentration. The results showed up to 89% enhancement of the elastic modulus of PVA by adding 0.5 wt% gellan gum. This elastic modulus (12.1 ± 0.8 kPa) was very close to that of chondrocyte and its surrounding pericellular matrix (12 ± 1 kPa), rendering them ideal for cartilage regeneration applications. Furthermore, the friction coefficient was reduced by up to 80% by adding GG to PVA, demonstrating the increased elastic modulus improved chance of survival under mechanical shear stresses. Examining PVA/GG at different concentrations of 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt% of GG, we demonstrate that at a load of 5 N, the friction coefficient decreases by increasing the GG concentration. However, at higher loads of 10 and 15 N, a 0.3 wt% concentration was sufficient to significantly reduce the friction coefficient. For PVA and PVA/GG composites, we observed a reduction in friction coefficient by increasing the load from 5 to 15 N. We also found the friction to be independent of the sliding velocity. Possible mechanisms of achieving a reduced friction coefficient are discussed.

Abstract
The desired organ in micro-tissue models of organ-on-a-chip (OoC) devices dictates the optimum biomaterials, divided into natural and synthetic biomaterials. They can resemble biological tissues' biological functions and architectures by constructing bioactivity of macromolecules, cells, nanoparticles, and other biological agents. The inclusion of such components in OoCs allows them having biological processes, such as basic biorecognition, enzymatic cleavage, and regulated drug release. In this report, we review natural-based biomaterials that are used in OoCs and their main characteristics.

Abstract
Hydrogels are prevalent scaffolds for tissue regeneration because of their hierarchical architectures along with outstanding biocompatibility and unique rheological and mechanical properties. For decades, researchers have found that many materials (natural, synthetic, or hybrid) can form hydrogels using different cross-linking strategies. Traditional strategies for fabricating hydrogels include physical, chemical, and enzymatical cross-linking methods. However, due to the diverse characteristics of different tissues/organs to be regenerated, tissue-customized hydrogels need to be developed through precisely controlled processes, making the manufacture of hydrogels reliant on novel cross-linking strategies. Thus, hybrid cross-linkable materials are proposed to tackle this challenge through hybrid cross-linking strategies. Here, different cross-linkable materials and their associated cross-linking strategies are summarized. From the perspective of the major characteristics of the target tissues/organs, we critically analyze how different cross-linking strategies are tailored to fit the regeneration of such tissues and organs. To further advance this field, more appropriate cross-linkable materials and cross-linking strategies should be investigated. In addition, some innovative technologies, such as 3D bioprinting, the internet of medical things (IoMT), and artificial intelligence (AI), are also proposed to improve the development of hydrogels for more efficient tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Thanks to the beneficial properties of probiotic bacteria, there exists an immense demand for their consumption in probiotic foods worldwide. Nevertheless, it is difficult to retain a high number of viable cells in probiotic food products during their storage and gastrointestinal transit. Microencapsulation of probiotic bacteria is an effective way of enhancing probiotic viability by limiting cell exposure to extreme conditions via the gastrointestinal tract before releasing them into the colon. This research aims to develop a new coating material system of microencapsulation to protect probiotic cells from adverse environmental conditions and improve their recovery rates. Hence, Lactobacillus rhamnosus was encapsulated with emulsion/internal gelation techniques in a calcium chloride solution. Alginate-probiotic microbeads were coated with xanthan gum, gum acacia, sodium caseinate, chitosan, starch, and carrageenan to produce various types of microcapsules. The alginate+xanthan microcapsules exhibited the highest encapsulation efficiency (95.13 ± 0.44%); they were simulated in gastric and intestinal juices at pH 3 during 1, 2, and 3 h incubations at 37 °C. The research findings showed a remarkable improvement in the survival rate of microencapsulated probiotics under simulated gastric conditions of up to 83.6 ± 0.89%. The morphology, size, and shape of the microcapsules were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope. For the protection of probiotic bacteria under simulated intestinal conditions; alginate microbeads coated with xanthan gum played an important role, and exhibited a survival rate of 87.3 ± 0.79%, which was around 38% higher than that of the free cells (49.4 ± 06%). Our research findings indicated that alginate+xanthan gum microcapsules have a significant potential to deliver large numbers of probiotic cells to the intestines, where cells can be released and colonized for the consumer's benefit.

Abstract
In this study, dopamine-functionalized gellan gum (DFG) hydrogel was prepared as a carrier for retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell delivery via a carbodiimide reaction. The carboxylic acid of gellan gum (GG) was replaced with catechol in a 21.3% yield, which was confirmed by NMR. Sol fraction and weight loss measurements revealed that dopamine improved degradability in the GG hydrogel. Measurements of the viscosity, injection force, and compressibility also showed that dopamine-functionalized GG hydrogels had more desirable rheological/mechanical properties for improving injectability. These characteristics were confirmed to arise from the GG's helix structure loosened by the dopamine's bulky nature. Moreover, dopamine's hydrophilic characteristics were confirmed to create a more favorable microenvironment for cell growth by promoting swelling capability and cell attachment. This improved biocompatibility became more pronounced when the hydrophilicity of dopamine was combined with a larger specific surface area stemming from the less porous structure of the dopamine-grafted hydrogels. This effect was apparent from the live/dead staining images of the as-prepared hydrogels. Meanwhile, the nonionic cross-linked DFG (DG) hydrogel showed the lowest protein expression in the immunofluorescence staining images obtained after 28 days of culture, supporting that it had the highest degradability and associated cell-releasing ability. That tendency was also observed in the gene expression data acquired by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis. RT-PCR analysis also revealed that the DG hydrogel carrier could upregulate the visual function-related gene of RPE. Overall, the DG hydrogel system demonstrated its feasibility as a carrier of RPE cells and its potential as a means of improving visual function.

Abstract
The engineering of tissues under a three-dimensional (3D) microenvironment is a great challenge and needs a suitable supporting biomaterial-based scaffold that may facilitate cell attachment, spreading, proliferation, migration, and differentiation for proper tissue regeneration or organ reconstruction. Polysaccharides as natural polymers promise great potential in the preparation of a three-dimensional artificial extracellular matrix (ECM) (i.e., hydrogel) via various processing methods and conditions. Natural polymers, especially gums, based upon hydrogel systems, provide similarities largely with the native ECM and excellent biological response. Here, we review the origin and physico-chemical characteristics of potentially used natural gums. In addition, various forms of scaffolds (e.g., nanofibrous, 3D printed-constructs) based on gums and their efficacy in 3D cell culture and various tissue regenerations such as bone, osteoarthritis and cartilage, skin/wound, retinal, neural, and other tissues are discussed. Finally, the advantages and limitations of natural gums are precisely described for future perspectives in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in the concluding remarks.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, gellan gum (GG) has attracted substantial research interest in several fields including biomedical and clinical applications. The GG has highly versatile properties like easy bio-fabrication, tunable mechanical, cell adhesion, biocompatibility, biodegradability, drug delivery, and is easy to functionalize. These properties have put forth GG as a promising material in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine fields. Nevertheless, GG alone has poor mechanical strength, stability, and a high gelling temperature in physiological conditions. However, GG physiochemical properties can be enhanced by blending them with other polymers like chitosan, agar, sodium alginate, starch, cellulose, pullulan, polyvinyl chloride, xanthan gum, and other nanomaterials, like gold, silver, or composites. In this review article, we discuss the comprehensive overview and different strategies for the preparation of GG based biomaterial, hydrogels, and scaffolds for drug delivery, wound healing, antimicrobial activity, and cell adhesion. In addition, we have given special attention to tissue engineering applications of GG, which can be combined with another natural, synthetic polymers and nanoparticles, and other composites materials. Overall, this review article clearly presents a summary of the recent advances in research studies on GG for different biomedical applications.

Abstract
Gum polysaccharides are derived from renewable sources. They are readily available, inexpensive, non-hazardous and eco-friendly. Depending upon the source, gums may be categorized as microbial gums, plant exudate gums or seed gums. Naturally occurring gum carbohydrates find multiple applications in the biomedical arena, compared with synthetic compounds, because of their unique structures and functionalities. Gums and their biocomposites are preferred for sustained drug delivery because they are safe and edible as well as more susceptible to biodegradation. The present review provides a state-of-the-art conspectus on the industrial and biomedical applications of antimicrobial gum-based biocomposites. Different kinds of gums polysaccharides will first be addressed based on their sources. Metal-, carbon- and organic-based nanostructures that are used in gum nanocomposites will then be reviewed with respect to their industrial and biomedical applications, to provide a backdrop for future research.

Abstract
In this work, we developed a very facile strategy, i.e. dual dynamic crosslinking, to prepare a high performance injectable hydrogel. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was crosslinked by 4-carboxyphenylboronic acid (CPBA) through the generation of borate bonding and ionic interaction to bridge the polymer chains in the presence of calcium ions. The dynamic gathering of CPBA could induce a self-reinforcing effect inside the hydrogel matrix, leading to high tensile and compressive moduli of the hydrogel over 1.0 MPa including the highest compressive modulus up to 5.6 MPa. Meanwhile, the mechanical properties of the hydrogel can be broadly and accurately tuned. And owing to the flexible PVA network, the hydrogel is ultra-tough, showing maximum tensile strain, tensile and compressive fracture energies up to 1600%, 600 kJ m-2 and 25 kJ m-2, respectively. Besides, the dynamic bonding overcomes the barriers to forming an injected strong hydrogel, e.g. to obtain a modulus and a fracture energy exceeding 1.0 MPa and 40 kJ m-2, by using a commercial dual-syringe kit under physiological conditions. Such a mild gelation procedure benefits the administration, 3D encapsulation and proliferation of cells of the hydrogels. The application of the PVA hydrogel was demonstrated by effective cartilage repair.

Abstract
Polymer materials with electrically conductive properties have good applications in their respective fields because of their special properties. However, they usually exhibited poor mechanical properties and biocompatibility. In this work, we present a simple approach to prepare conductive sodium alginate (SA) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) polymer hydrogels (SA/CMCS/PPy) that can provide sufficient help for peripheral nerve regeneration. SA/CMCS hydrogel was cross-linked by calcium ions provided by the sustained release system consisting of d-glucono-δ-lactone (GDL) and superfine calcium carbonate (CaCO3), and the conductivity of the hydrogel was provided by doped with polypyrrole (PPy). Gelation time, swelling ratio, porosity and Young's modulus of the conductive SA/CMCS/PPy hydrogel were adjusted by polypyrrole content, and the conductivity of it was within 2.41 × 10−5 to 8.03 × 10−3 S cm−1. The advantages of conductive hydrogels in cell growth were verified by controlling electrical stimulation of cell experiments, and the hydrogels were also used as a filling material for the nerve conduit in animal experiments. The SA/CMCS/PPy conductive hydrogel showed good biocompatibility and repair features as a bioactive biomaterial, we expect this conductive hydrogel will have a good potential in the neural tissue engineering. Polymer materials with electrically conductive properties have good applications in their respective fields because of their special properties.![]()

Abstract
Gellan gum (GG), a linear negatively charged exopolysaccharide,is biodegradable and non-toxic in nature. It produces hard and translucent gel in the presence of metallic ions which is stable at low pH. However, GG has poor mechanical strength, poor stability in physiological conditions, high gelling temperature and small temperature window.Therefore,it is blended with different polymers such as agar, chitosan, cellulose, sodium alginate, starch, pectin, polyanaline, pullulan, polyvinyl chloride, and xanthan gum. In this article, a comprehensive overview of combination of GG with natural and synthetic polymers/compounds and their applications in biomedical field involving drug delivery system, insulin delivery, wound healing and gene therapy, is presented. It also describes the utilization of GG based materials in food and petroleum industry. All the technical scientific issues have been addressed; highlighting the recent advancement.
