[PMID: 38311820 DOI: 10.1080/01480545.2024.2308835] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/13/2024] [Indexed: 02/06/2024]
Abstract
The lack of toxicity data for DHA-rich oil from Schizochytrium sp. (Strain ATCC-20889) leads to its exclusion from the Qualified Presumption of Safety list. Therefore, present study addresses toxicity evaluation of DHA-rich microalgae oil using ex-vivo (cytotoxicity assay) and in-vivo methods (acute (OECD 423 guidelines), sub-chronic (OECD 452 guidelines), and genotoxicity assay). The ex-vivo results showed >90% cell viability of Caco-2 cells after 48 h of treatment (200 µg/mL of DHA). Additionally, the in-vivo acute toxicity study found that microalgae oil was nontoxic and classified under category 5 molecule according to OECD 423 guidelines with a highest degree of safety at 2000 mg/kg b.w. The in-vivo sub-chronic study revealed no significant mortality and changes in feed intake, body weight, haematological, biochemical, neurological, and urine parameters after repeated 180-days administration of DHA-rich microalgae oil at 250 mg/kg, 500 mg/kg, and 1000 mg/kg. Moreover, histopathology evaluation, comet assay, chromosomal aberration, and micronuclei assay also confirmed the nontoxic behavior of DHA-rich oil. Thus, the results from the ex-vivo and in-vivo studies indicate that DHA-rich oil from Schizochytrium sp. (Strain ATCC-20889) is safe for use as a novel food, and can be included in infants, adults, pregnant women, and children formula.

Abstract
Nanoencapsulation has found numerous applications in the food and nutraceutical industries. Micro and nanoencapsulated forms of bioactives have proven benefits in terms of stability, release, and performance in the body. However, the encapsulated ingredient is often subjected to a wide range of processing conditions and this is followed by storage, consumption, and transit along the gastrointestinal tract. A strong understanding of the fate of nanoencapsulates in the biological system is mandatory as it provides valuable insights for ingredient selection, formulation, and application. In addition to their efficacy, there is also the need to assess the safety of ingested nanoencapsulates. Given the rising research and commercial focus of this subject, this review provides a strong focus on their interaction factors and mechanisms, highlighting their prospective biological fate. This review also covers various approaches to studying the fate of nanoencapsulates in the body. Also, with emphasis on the overall scope, the need for a new advanced integrated common methodology to evaluate the fate of nanoencapsulates post-administration is discussed.

Abstract
The most commonly-used and effective wall materials (WMs) for spray-dried microencapsulation of bioactive compounds are either costly, or derived from unsustainable sources, which lead to an increasing demand for alternatives derived from sustainable and natural sources, with low calories and low cost. Wood hemicelluloses obtained from by-products of forest industries appear to be attractive alternatives as they have been reported to have good emulsifying properties, low viscosity at high concentrations, high heat stability and low heat transfer. Here, we investigated the applicability of spruce galactoglucomannans (GGM) and birch glucuronoxylans (GX), to encapsulate flaxseed oil (FO, polyunsaturated fatty acid-rich plant based oil) by spray drying; and the results were compared to those of the highly effective WM, gum Arabic (GA). It was found that depending on solid ratios of WM:FO (1:1, 3:1 and 5:1), encapsulation efficiency of GGM was 88-96%, and GX was 63-98%. At the same encapsulation ratio, both GGM and GX had higher encapsulation efficiency than GA (49-92%) due to their ability to produce feed emulsions with a smaller oil droplet size and higher physical stability. In addition, the presence of phenolic residues in GGM and GX powders enabled them to have a greater ability to protect oil from oxidation during spray drying than GA. Physiochemical properties of encapsulated powders including thermal properties, morphology, molecular structure, particle size and water adsorption intake are also investigated. The study has explored a new value-added proposition for wood hemicelluloses which can be used as effective WMs in the production of microcapsules of polyunsaturated fatty acid-rich oils for healthy and functional products in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.

Abstract
The present study aims to develop carboplatin injectable microspheres using spray-drying technology. The optimized powdered microspheres (MS-19-ST2) were morphologically spherical, with a 1.795 μm particle size and good micromeritic properties. Under normal temperature conditions, the MS-19-ST2 formulation exhibited a sustained release behaviour following first-order drug release kinetics with no compatibility issues with aluminium syringes. Furthermore, MS-19-ST2 formulation outperformed its commercial counterpart in terms of in vivo pharmaco-kinetics and -dynamics (MRT-13.9 ± 0.9 h, T1/2-8.2 ± 0.3 h, tumour inhibition-74.5%). Additionally, the MS-19-ST2 formulation was much safer to use than its commercial counterpart, as observed from the results of ex vivo (haemolytic, MTT, and cell apoptosis assays) and in vivo (14-day acute and 28-day sub-acute) toxicity studies. The above results confirm the MS-19-ST2 formulation as a good candidate to commercialize carboplatin in a powdered microsphere form (stable for 24 h after reconstitution) with improved pharmacokinetics, therapeutic, and toxicity profile.

Abstract
The valorization of by-products is currently a matter of great concern to improve the sustainability of the food industry. High quality by-products derived from the food chain are omega-3 fatty acids, being fish the main source of docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid. The search for economic and sustainable sources following the standards of circular economy had led to search for strategies that put in value new resources to obtain different omega-3 fatty acids, which could be further employed in the development of new industrial products without producing more wastes and economic losses. In this sense, seeds and vegetables, fruits and crustaceans by products can be an alternative. This review encompasses all these aspects on omega-3 fatty acids profile from marine and agri-food by-products together with their extraction and purification technologies are reported. These comprise conventional techniques like extraction with solvents, cold press, and wet pressing and, more recently proposed ones like, supercritical fluids fractionation and purification by chromatographic methods. The information collected indicates a trend to combine different conventional and emerging technologies to improve product yields and purity. This paper also addresses encapsulation strategies for their integration in novel foods to achieve maximum consumer acceptance and to ensure their effectiveness.

Abstract
The destructive impact of cardiovascular diseases on health, including heart failure, peripheral artery disease, atherosclerosis, stroke, and other cardiac pathological conditions, positions these health conditions as leading causes of increased global mortality rates, thereby impacting the human quality of life. The considerable changes in modern lifestyles, including the increase in food intake and the change in eating habits, will unavoidably lead to an unbalanced consumption of essential fatty acids, with a direct effect on cardiovascular health problems. In the last decade, essential fatty acids have become the main focus of scientific research in medical fields aiming to establish their impact for preventing cardiovascular diseases and the associated risk factors. Specifically, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), such as omega 3 fatty acids, and monounsaturated fatty acids from various sources are mentioned in the literature as having a cardio-protective role, due to various biological mechanisms that are still to be clarified. This review aims to describe the major biological mechanisms of how diets rich in essential fatty acids, or simply essential fatty acid administration, could have anti-inflammatory, vasodilatory, anti-arrhythmic, antithrombotic, antioxidant, and anti-atherogenic effects. This review describes findings originating from clinical studies in which dietary sources of FAs were tested for their role in mitigating the impact of heart disorders in human health.

Abstract
In the present study, different in situ hydrogel formulations of docetaxel (DTX) based on biocompatible polymers such as Hyaluronic Acid (HA), poloxamer-407, chitosan and gellan gum were formulated to increase its therapeutic efficacy and reduce toxicity. DTX was loaded in nanovesicles (20 mg/mL equivalent to commercial strength) and further incorporated into the hydrogel bases to possess a dual rationale of protection against burst release and enhanced solubility of the drug. The optimized hydrogel formulation (NV-TPGS-3-GG-4) showed ideal rheological behavior and in situ characteristics at 37±0.5°C with sustained release of more than 144 h. The optimized formulation had instant in vitro gelation (2.8±0.3 min) with good injectability in comparison to the conventional commercial DTX injectable formulation having instant release (<2 h). Additionally, developed formulation exhibited an improved biodisponibility (25.1±0.2 h) in comparison to the commercially available formulation (1.7±0.1 h). The Solid Tumor Carcinoma model in Swiss albino mice revealed that the optimized formulation (based on gellan gum) showed better tumor reduction (85.7±1.2%) and lower toxicity as compared to the commercial formulation (77.3±1.3%). Pharmacokinetic and biodistribution studies demonstrated 3 to 4 times higher localization of drug in tumors. Our findings suggested that injectable gellan gum-based in situ hydrogel formulation can be an effective delivery system for DTX with enhanced solubility, reduced toxicity, and better targeting to the tumors for improved therapeutics.Graphical abstract.

Abstract
AIM To develop, characterise, and optimise SNEDDS formulation to enhance organoleptics, bioavailability, physical & oxidative-stability, and extend shelf-life of pure Ω-3-fatty acids oil for use in the food fortification industry as nutraceuticals. METHODS SNEDDS formulations were prepared using a simple stirring technique and optimised based on in-vitro characterisation. RESULTS The optimised SNEDDS formulation (F3) had a mean diameter of 52.9 ± 0.4 nm, PDI of 0.229 ± 0.02, zeta potential of -17.3 ± 0.1 mV, cloud temperature of 92 ± 0.2 °C, self-emulsification time of 50 ± 0.2 sec, and stable under accelerated stability conditions. Intestinal permeability study on rat ileum depicted absorption of 88.5 ± 0.2% DHA at 5 h for F3 formulation in comparison to 61.5 ± 0.2% for commercial counterpart. F3 formulation exhibited better therapeutics for melamine-induced cognitive dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS The developed Ω-3-loaded SNEDDS heralds the future for an efficacious, safer, and higher strength formulation intended as a better substitute for currently available formulations.

Abstract
Docetaxel (DTX) is a highly lipophilic, BCS class IV drug with poor aqueous solubility (12.7 µg/mL). Presently, only injectable formulation is available in the market which uses a large amount of surfactant (Tween 80) and dehydrated alcohol as a solubilizer. High concentrations of Tween 80 in injectable formulations are associated with severe consequences i.e. nephrotoxicity, fluid retention, and hypersensitivity reactions. The present study aims to eliminate Tween 80, thus novel biocompatible surfactant Vitamin E TPGS based nanovesicle formulation of DTX (20 mg/mL) was developed and evaluated for different quality control parameters. Optimized nanovesicular formulation (NV-TPGS-3) showed nanometric size (102.9 ± 2.9 nm), spherical vesicular shape, high drug encapsulation efficiency (95.2 ± 0.5%), sustained-release profile and high dilution integrity with normal saline. In vitro cytotoxicity assay, showed threefold elevation in the IC50 value of the optimized formulation in comparison to the commercial formulation. Further, no mortality and toxicity were observed during 28 days repeated dose sub-acute toxicity studies in Swiss albino mice up to the dose of 138 mg/kg, whereas, commercial formulation showed toxicity at 40 mg/kg. In addition, in vivo anticancer activity on Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma induced mice showed a significant tumour growth inhibition of 76.3 ± 5.3% with the NV-TPGS-3 treatment when compared to Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma control. Results demonstrated that the developed Vitamin E TPGS based nanovesicular formulation of DTX could be a better alternative to increase its clinical uses with improved therapeutic efficacy, reduced toxicity and dosing frequency, and sustained drug release behaviour.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is a connection among various branches of science with potential applications that extend over a variety of scientific disciplines, particularly in the food science and technology fields. For nanomaterial applications in food processing, such as antimicrobials on food contact surfaces along with the improvement of biosensors, electrospun nanofibers are the most intensively studied ones. As in the case of every developing skill, an assessment from a sustainability point of view is necessary to address the balance between its benefits to civilization and the unwanted effects on human health and the environment. The current review aimed to provide an update regarding the sustainability of current nanotechnology applications in food science technology, environment, and public health together with a risk assessment and toxicity evaluation.

Abstract
Gums, which for the most part are water-soluble polysaccharides, can interact with water to form viscous solutions, emulsions or gels. Their desirable properties, such as flexibility, biocompatibility, biodegradability, availability of reactive sites for molecular interactions and ease of use have led to their extremely large and broad applications in formation of nanostructures (nanoemulsions, nanoparticles, nanocomplexes, and nanofibers) and have already served as important wall materials for a variety of nano encapsulated food ingredients including flavoring agents, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. The most common gums used in nano encapsulation systems include Arabic gum, carrageenan, xanthan, tragacanth plus some new sources of non-traditional gums, such as cress seed gum and Persian/or Angum gum identified as potential building blocks for nanostructured systems. New preparation techniques and sources of non-traditional gums are still being examined for commercialization in the food nanotechnology area as low-cost and reproducible sources. In this study, different nanostructures of gums and their preparation methods have been discussed along with a review of gum nanostructure applications for various food bioactive ingredients.
