Lignin nanoparticle as a vehicle to load, release, and improve the stability and antioxidant activity of curcumin: Comparison between dropping and pouring regimes. Food Chem 2024; 460:140513. [PMID: 39053278 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140513] [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: 05/09/2024] [Revised: 07/02/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
Curcumin (Cur) was loaded in lignin nanoparticles (LNP) via an antisolvent method by pouring (P-) and dropping (D-) regimes, respectively, and Cur-loaded LNP (Cur/LNP) were comparatively characterized. The results indicated that P-Cur/LNP (62-92 nm) was much smaller than D-Cur/LNP (134-139 nm). For both regimes, their maximum loading efficiencies were comparable (91 ± 3%), while dropping regime (236.2 mg/g) demonstrated a higher loading capacity than pouring regime (174.6 mg/g). In both regimes, Cur was loaded in an amorphous form via the hydrophobic, hydrogen-bonding, and π-π interactions with lignin matrix and it demonstrated a controlled release in in vitro digestion test. In comparison, Cur in D-Cur/LNP showed higher stabilities against photodegradation, thermal treatment, and 30-d storage than that in P-Cur/LNP, while P-Cur/LNP concluded a higher antioxidant activity than D-Cur/LNP. The present findings attested that LNP was a valuable tool to stabilize and controlled release of lipophilic phytochemicals as well as improve their bioactivities.

Abstract
Micro/nanomotors (MNMs) are miniature devices that can generate energy through chemical reactions or physical processes, utilizing this energy for movement. By virtue of their small size, self-propulsion, precise positioning within a small range, and ability to access microenvironments, MNMs have been applied in various fields including sensing, biomedical applications, and pollutant adsorption. However, the development of food-grade MNMs and their application in food delivery systems have been scarcely reported. Currently, there are various issues with the decomposition, oxidation, or inability to maintain the activity of some nutrients or bioactive substances, such as the limited application of curcumin (Cur) in food. Compared to traditional delivery systems, MNMs can adjust the transport speed and direction as needed, effectively protecting bioactive substances during delivery and achieving efficient transportation. Therefore, this study utilizes polysaccharides as the substrate, employing a simple, rapid, and pollution-free template method to prepare polysaccharide-based microtubes (PMTs) and polysaccharide-based micro/nanomotors (PMNMs). PMNMs can achieve multifunctional propulsion by modifying ferrosoferric oxide (Fe3O4), platinum (Pt), and glucose oxidase (GOx). Fe-PMNMs and Pt-PMNMs exhibit excellent photothermal conversion performance, showing promise for applications in photothermal therapy. Moreover, PMNMs can effectively deliver curcumin, achieving the effective delivery of nutrients and exerting the anti-inflammatory performance of the system.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and colorectal cancer (CRC) are difficult to cure, and available treatment is associated with troubling side effects. In addition, current therapies have limited efficacy and are characterized by high costs, and a large segment of the IBD and CRC patients are refractive to the treatment. Moreover, presently used anti-IBD therapies in the clinics are primarily aimed on the symptomatic control. That is why new agents with therapeutic potential against IBD and CRC are required. Currently, polyphenols have received great attention in the pharmaceutical industry and in medicine due to their health-promoting properties. They may exert anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-cancer activity, via inhibiting production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and enzymes or factors associated with carcinogenesis (e.g., matrix metalloproteinases, vascular endothelial growth factor), suggesting they may have therapeutic potential against IBD and CRC. However, their use is limited under both processing conditions or gastrointestinal interactions, reducing their stability and hence their bioaccessibility and bioavailability. Therefore, there is a need for more effective carriers that could be used for encapsulation of polyphenolic compounds. In recent years, natural polysaccharides have been proposed for creating carriers used in the synthesis of polyphenol encapsulates. Among these, hemicelluloses are particularly noteworthy, being characterized by good biocompatibility, biodegradation, low immunogenicity, and pro-health activity. They may also demonstrate synergy with the polyphenol payload. This review discusses the utility and potential of hemicellulose-based encapsulations of polyphenols as support for treatment of IBD and CRC.

Abstract
An amphiphilic polymer based on octenyl succinic anhydride-modified curdlan oligosaccharide (MCOS) was synthesized. The critical micelle concentration of MCOS was 3.91 μg·mL-1. MCOS could self-assemble into spherical micelles with a particle size of 230.1 nm and a zeta potential of - 37.9 mV. When used for polyphenol encapsulation, the loading capacity of curcumin and quercetin-co-encapsulated micelles was higher than that of single-polyphenol encapsulated micelles. In vitro gastrointestinal release test showed that the MCOS micelle presented a pH-dependent release, released a little polyphenol in simulated gastric fluid, but presented sustained release in the simulated intestinal fluid. The gastrointestinal-digested polyphenol-loaded micelles exhibited excellent antioxidant ability. In vitro human fecal fermentation indicated that the MCOS carrier could promote the production of short-chain fatty acids by gut microbiota and exhibited the highest relative abundance of Megamonas. In addition, the supplementation of curcumin and quercetin-co-loaded MCOS micelles increased the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium and inhibited the growth of Escherichia_Shigella. These findings indicated that the MCOS carrier can be potentially used for the colon-targeted delivery of hydrophobic polyphenols due to its pH-responsive property.

Abstract
Polysaccharides can be esterified with octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) to form derivatives with amphiphilic properties. The general preparation methods of OSA-polysaccharides are described, especially the aqueous method. The new hydrophobic groups introduced result in OSA-polysaccharides showing higher interfacial properties, better emulsifying stability, higher viscosity, and lower digestibility. There have been advances in the development of OSA-polysaccharides-based nano-encapsulation systems for hydrophobic bioactive compounds in recent years. Nano-encapsulation systems are formed through nanoemulsions, nanocapsules, nanoparticles, micelles, vesicles, molecular inclusion complexes, and so on. This review aims to describe the preparation methods, the structure characterizations, and the physicochemical properties of OSA-polysaccharides as encapsulating agents. In addition, the focus is on the different nano-encapsulation systems based on OSA-polysaccharides as wall materials. Future perspectives will concern OSA-polysaccharides-based nano-encapsulation systems with optimized functional properties for providing higher bioavailability and targeted delivery of various hydrophobic bioactive compounds. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Curcumin-Loaded Self-Assembly Constructed by Octenylsuccinate Fish ( Cyprinus carpio L.) Scale Gelatin: Preparation and Characterization. Foods 2022; 11:foods11182911.

Abstract
Curcumin loaded octenylsuccinate fish scale gelatin (OFSG) was prepared in this study, to explore the potential of FSG for delivering hydrophobic nutrients. The effects of molecule weight (Mw, 22,677-369 g/mol) and degree of substitution (DS, 0-0.116) on the curcumin loading efficiency (CLE, μg/mL) of OFSG (6.98-26.85 mg/mL) were evaluated. The expose of interior hydrophobic groups in FSG and increased intermolecular hydrophobic area contributed to the loading of curcumin in two phases, respectively. The interaction between OFSG and curcumin showed a decreased absorption in FTIR and an increased crystallinity in XRD. The loading of curcumin into OFSG caused a significant decrease of the particle size (from 350-12,070 to 139-214 nm), PDI (from 0.584-0.659 to 0.248-0.347) and ζ-potential (-12.2 or -11.4 to -21.0 or -20.3). OFSG showed a significantly higher stability and lower release of curcumin than FSG at the end of the simulated gastrointestinal digestion. Thus, OFSG showed great potential in the construction of a carrier for hydrophobic nutrients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Curcumin has become increasingly popular in functional foods and beverages field as a result of its high biological activity. Nevertheless, the application of curcumin is usually limited by its poor water solubility, low absorption, rapid metabolism and instability. Accordingly, the development of an appropriate wall material is crucial for its effective use. In the present study, curcumin-octenyl succinic anhydride modified pullulan (Cur-OSAP) micelles were successfully prepared by an anti-solvent co-precipitation method. RESULTS Octenyl succinic anhydride modified pullulan (OSAP) micelles exhibited the highest encapsulation efficiency (57.31%) and loading capacity (5.73%) of curcumin when the mass ratio of OSAP to curcumin was 10:1 and the degree of substitution of OSAP was 0.0469, at which point Cur-OSAP micelles formed via hydrogen binding and hydrophobic interactions, as confirmed by Fourier transform infrared and fluorescence techniques. The transmission electron microscopy results showed that the Cur-OSAP micelles were roughly spherical in shape with diameters in the approximate range 30-60 nm. CONCLUSION The encapsulation of OSAP greatly improved photostability and sustained release properties of curcumin in Cur-OSAP micelles. These findings suggest that OSAP can be used as a carrier to encapsulate and protect hydrophobic food ingredients. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The current relevance of a healthy diet in well-being has led to a surging interest in designing novel functional food products enriched by biologically active molecules. As nature-inspired bioactive components, several lines of research have revealed the capability of polyphenolic compounds (phenolics) in the medical intervention of different ailments, i.e., tumors, cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases. Phenolics typically possess antioxidant and antibacterial properties and, due to their unique molecular structure, can offer superior platforms for designing functional products. They can protect food ingredients from oxidation and promote the physicochemical attributes of proteins and carbohydrate-based materials. Even though these properties contribute to the inherent benefits of bioactive phenolics as important functional ingredients in the food industry, the in vitro/in vivo instability, poor solubility, and low bioavailability are the main factors restricting their food/pharma applicability. Recent advances in the encapsulation realm are now offering efficient platforms to overcome these limitations. The application of encapsulation field may offer protection and controlled delivery of phenolics in food formulations. Here, we review recent advances in micro/nanoencapsulation of phenolics and highlight efficient carriers from this decade, which have been utilized successfully in food applications. Although further development of phenolic-containing formulations promises to design novel functional food formulations, and revolutionize the food industry, most of the strategies found in the scientific literature are not commercially applicable. Moreover, in vivo experiments are extremely crucial to corroborate the efficiency of such products.

Abstract
The environmental risk assessment and the factors influencing heavy metals (HM) in the soil at the municipal solid waste landfill sites (MSWLs) were studied by literature review, field survey, and statistical methods. The results indicated that the dominant HM contamination in the soil at the MSWLs was caused by chromium (Cr) with the Nemero index values (PI) from 22.7 to 44.3 and zinc (Zn) with the PI from 0.7 to 9.8. There were significant differences in the Cr, mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), Zn, and arsenic (As) concentrations between soil samples from sanitary and non-sanitary landfills (NSLs) where HM contamination (PI = 10.9) was more obvious. As (CRAAs = 2.35 × 10-4) and cadmium (Cd) (CRACd = 1.45 × 10-4) posed potential carcinogenic health effects. The soil Cd concentration had a significant negative correlation (r = -0.476**) with the landfill age. The soil As concentration had a significant positive correlation (r = 0.472**) with rainfall in NSLs. There were significant differences in the As (P = 0.042) and copper (Cu) (P = 0.042) concentrations between soil samples from the surrounding areas of MSWLs and the base where soil had higher HM concentrations. For the efficient prevention of HM ecological risk, a scientific site selection, undamaged coverage and anti-seepage systems, standardized management, and ongoing monitoring are required.

Abstract
Curcumin is commonly used as a nutraceutical in functional food and beverage formulations because of various biological activities. Typically, curcumin is encapsulated in edible nanoparticles or microparticles to improve its water-dispersibility, chemical stability, and bioavailability. In this study, a succinic acid-modified cyclodextrin (SACD) was fabricated and applied as a carrier for curcumin. Curcumin-loaded SACD (Cur-SACD) with a molar ratio of 1:1 and an encapsulation efficiency > 80% was formed spontaneously basing on hydrogen bonding between the aromatic ring of the curcumin and the hydrophobic cavity of the SACD. Cur-SACD exhibited excellent stability against long-time storage, UV-irradiation, and pasteurization, as well as against physiological conditions including body temperature, physiological salt concentrations, stomach and intestinal pH. This study suggests that Cur-SACD systems may be suitable for increasing the water-dispersibility, stability, and bioavailability of hydrophobic compounds intended for oral administration, such as those used in the food, supplement, and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
One of the most significant factors affecting the rapid and effective healing of wounds is the application of appropriate wound dressings. In the present study, novel antibacterial wound dressings are fabricated that consist of Chitosan (CS)/Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/Sodium Alginate (SA), which are all biocompatible, functionalized with mesoporous Ag2O/SiO2 and curcumin nanoparticles as reinforcements. In this research nanocomposites are fabricated (0 wt%, 5 wt%, 10 wt%, 15 wt%, and 20 wt% of Ag2O/SiO2). After the composition of nanocomposites using the cross-linked technique, Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is performed to confirm the functional groups that are added to the polymer at each step. X-ray diffraction (XRD) is done to show the crystallinity of Ag2O/SiO2. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) studies are performed to demonstrate the morphology of the structure, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) is done to examine the elements in the wound dressing and atomic force microscopy (AFM) study is performed to show surface roughness and pores. Then the nanocomposites with different weight percentages are cultured in three bacteria called Acinetobacter baumannii, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Proteus mirabilis, all three of which cause skin infections. Finally, by performing the tensile test, the results related to the tensile strength of the wound dressings are examined. The results show that with the increase of Ag2O/SiO2, the mechanical properties, as well as the healing properties of the wound dressing, have increased significantly. Fabricating these nanocomposites helps a lot in treating skin infections. CS/PVA/SA hydrogels modified with mesoporous Ag2O/SiO2 and curcumin nanoparticles for antibacterial biopolymer film.![]()

Abstract
Abstract The cell walls of cereals are rich sources of polysaccharide β-glucan. In this study, the β-glucan was extracted from oat bran using the hot-water extraction method and dried in a pure powder form. The concentration of the β-glucan in the extract was determined using the l-cysteine sulfuric acid method. The results showed that the yield of β-glucan using the hot-water extraction method is the highest compared to its yield achieved by enzymatic, acid, and alkaline methods. In this paper, the usage of the β-glucan as a coating material for a water-insoluble carotenoid is considered. This study demonstrates for the first time the encapsulation of β-carotene with modified octanoic acid β-glucan. It implements to obtain a stable encapsulated polysaccharide-carotenoid system, which has been studied by a set of physicochemical methods and a cytotoxic analysis was performed on the HCT-116 cell line. The SEM image of the resulting encapsulated system is perfectly correlated with the DLS data, which has determined the size of MG capsules at 200 nm. The cytotoxic analysis demonstrates that the cell viability was more than 70%, which indicates its potential using in the food industry. Graphic abstract

Abstract
Environmental temperature and pH induced significant changes in the size and surface charge (ζ) of octenylsuccinated oat β-glucan aggregates. The underlying mechanisms were explored by using 1H-NMR, fluorescence spectra, thermodynamic analysis, and SAXS. At pH 6.5, the size decreased with temperature while ζ continuously increased. With increasing pH at 293 K, parabolic and U-shaped trends were observed in the size and ζ, peaking at pH 8.5 and 6.5, respectively. At any tested pH, the size decreased with temperature. Overall, ζ significantly increased with temperature at each pH. As temperature increased, the compactness of hydrophobic-domains increased while the compactness of hydrophilic-domains decreased. In an acidic environment, both the compactness increased with decreasing pH, but in an alkaline environment, they decreased with pH. The compactness changes were co-driven by enthalpy and entropy and corresponded to changes in the hydrophobic interactions in hydrophobic-domains, hydrogen bonds in hydrophilic-domains and electrostatic repulsions among octenylsuccinate molecules.
