Abstract
Cassava starch/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CC) was used as the substrate to create a multipurpose food packaging film, and caffeic acid@silica nanoparticles (C@SNPs) was added. The encapsulation rate of caffeic acid in C@SNPs was 84.7 ± 0.97 %. According to SEM pictures, the nanoparticles were evenly dispersed throughout the film and exhibited good compatibility with the other polymers. C@SNPs was added, which enhanced the physical characteristics of film and decreased its water solubility. The best mechanical and oxygen barrier qualities among them are found in the C@SCC5:1 film, whose tensile strength rises from 7.17 MPa to 15.44 MPa. The C@SCC5:1 film has scavenging rates of 95.43 % and 84.67 % against ABTS and DPPH free radicals, respectively, and CA can be released continuously in various food systems. In addition, the antibacterial rate of E. coli O157:H7 and S. aureus of C@SCC5:1 film in meat was 99.9 %, and it can effectively delay lipid oxidation and pH rise. In conclusion,C@SCC5:1 film is a new type of antibacterial and antioxidant food packaging material.

Velázquez-Contreras F, Zamora-Ledezma C, López-González I, Meseguer-Olmo L, Núñez-Delicado E, Gabaldón JA. Cyclodextrins in Polymer-Based Active Food Packaging: A Fresh Look at Nontoxic, Biodegradable, and Sustainable Technology Trends. Polymers (Basel) 2021; 14:polym14010104. [PMID: 35012127 PMCID: PMC8747138 DOI: 10.3390/polym14010104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2021] [Revised: 12/16/2021] [Accepted: 12/21/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Using cyclodextrins (CDs) in packaging technologies helps volatile or bioactive molecules improve their solubility, to guarantee the homogeneous distribution of the complexed molecules, protecting them from volatilization, oxidation, and temperature fluctuations when they are associated with polymeric matrices. This technology is also suitable for the controlled release of active substances and allows the exploration of their association with biodegradable polymer targeting to reduce the negative environmental impacts of food packaging. Here, we present a fresh look at the current status of and future prospects regarding the different strategies used to associate cyclodextrins and their derivatives with polymeric matrices to fabricate sustainable and biodegradable active food packaging (AFP). Particular attention is paid to the materials and the fabrication technologies available to date. In addition, the use of cutting-edge strategies, including the trend of nanotechnologies in active food packaging, is emphasized. Furthermore, a critical view on the risks to human health and the associated updated legislation is provided. Some of the more representative patents and commercial products that currently use AFP are also listed. Finally, the current and future research challenges which must be addressed are discussed.

Raza ZA, Munim SA, Ayub A. Recent developments in polysaccharide-based electrospun nanofibers for environmental applications. Carbohydr Res 2021; 510:108443. [PMID: 34597980 DOI: 10.1016/j.carres.2021.108443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2021] [Revised: 09/08/2021] [Accepted: 09/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Electrospinning has become an inevitable approach to produce nanofibrous structures for diverse environmental applications. Polysaccharides, due to their variety of types, biobased origins, and eco-friendly, and renewable nature are wonderful materials for the said purpose. The present review discusses the electrospinning process, the parameters involved in the formation of electrospun nanofibers in general, and the polysaccharides in specific. The selection of materials to be electrospun depends on the processing conditions and properties deemed desirable for specific applications. Thereby, the conditions to electrospun polysaccharides-based nanofibers have been focused on for possible environmental applications including air filtration, water treatment, antimicrobial treatment, environmental sensing, and so forth. The polysaccharide-based electrospun membranes, for instance, due to their active adsorption sites could find significant potential for contaminants removal from the aqueous systems. The study also gives some recommendations to overcome any shortcomings faced during the electrospinning and environmental applications of polysaccharide-based matrices.

Abstract
Recent developments in nanoscience have appreciably modified how diseases are prevented, diagnosed, and treated. Metal nanoparticles, specifically silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), are widely used in bioscience. From time to time, various synthetic methods for the synthesis of AgNPs are reported, i.e., physical, chemical, and photochemical ones. However, among these, most are expensive and not eco-friendly. The physicochemical parameters such as temperature, use of a dispersing agent, surfactant, and others greatly influence the quality and quantity of the synthesized NPs and ultimately affect the material’s properties. Scientists worldwide are trying to synthesize NPs and are devising methods that are easy to apply, eco-friendly, and economical. Among such strategies is the biogenic method, where plants are used as the source of reducing and capping agents. In this review, we intend to debate different strategies of AgNP synthesis. Although, different preparation strategies are in use to synthesize AgNPs such as electron irradiation, optical device ablation, chemical reduction, organic procedures, and photochemical methods. However, biogenic processes are preferably used, as they are environment-friendly and economical. The review covers a comprehensive discussion on the biological activities of AgNPs, such as antimicrobial, anticancer anti-inflammatory, and anti-angiogenic potentials of AgNPs. The use of AgNPs in water treatment and disinfection has also been discussed in detail.

Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:999. [PMID: 34371691 PMCID: PMC8309026 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13070999] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2021] [Revised: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 06/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Alterations of skin homeostasis are widely diffused in our everyday life both due to accidental injuries, such as wounds and burns, and physiological conditions, such as late-stage diabetes, dermatitis, or psoriasis. These events are locally characterized by an intense inflammatory response, a high generation of harmful free radicals, or an impairment in the immune response regulation, which can profoundly change the skin tissue' repair process, vulnerability, and functionality. Moreover, diabetes diffusion, antibiotic resistance, and abuse of aggressive soaps and disinfectants following the COVID-19 emergency could be causes for the future spreading of skin disorders. In the last years, hydroxycinnamic acids and derivatives have been investigated and applied in several research fields for their anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial activities. First, in this study, we give an overview of these natural molecules' current source and applications. Afterwards, we review their potential role as valid alternatives to the current therapies, supporting the management and rebalancing of skin disorders and diseases at different levels. Also, we will introduce the recent advances in the design of biomaterials loaded with these phenolic compounds, specifically suitable for skin disorders treatments. Lastly, we will suggest future perspectives for introducing hydroxycinnamic acids and derivatives in treating skin disorders.
