Abstract
In this study, water-soluble chitosan salts (chitosan amine sulfopropyl salts) were prepared from chitosan samples with different molecular weights and deacetylation degrees. These soluble-in-water polymer salts allowed us to produce, in an eco-friendly and facile method, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with better control on size and polydispersity, even at large silver concentrations than their corresponding chitosan sample. Chitosan salt-based materials (films and scaffolds) were analyzed in terms of antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC23915 or Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853. 3D scaffolds enhanced the effect of the chitosan-AgNPs combination compared to the equivalent films.

Front Nutr 2023; 10:1177950. [PMID: 37143474 PMCID: PMC10151673 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1177950] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) is a safe and efficient bactericide with unique advantages in reducing foodborne illnesses, inhibiting microbial growth, and maintaining the nutritional quality of food. However, gaseous ClO2 is sensitive to heat, vibration, and light, which limits its application. Methods In this study, a ClO2 precursor-stabilized ClO2 aqueous solution was encapsulated by the double emulsion method, and a high-performance ClO2 self-releasing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film was prepared to investigate its performance and effect on blueberry quality during storage. Results The self-releasing films had the best overall performance when the microcapsule content was 10% as the film's mechanical properties, thermal stability, and film barrier properties were significantly improved. The inhibition rates of Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli were 93.69% and 95.55%, respectively, and the mycelial growth of Staphylococcus griseus was successfully inhibited. The resulting ClO2 self-releasing films were used for blueberry preservation, and an experimental study found that the ClO2 self-releasing antimicrobial film group delayed the quality decline of blueberries. During the 14-day storage period, no mold contamination was observed in the ClO2 self-releasing film group, and blueberries in the antibacterial film group had higher anthocyanin accumulation during the storage period. Discussion Research analysis showed that films containing ClO2 microcapsules are promising materials for future fruit and vegetable packaging.

Abstract
Chitosan is the only cationic polysaccharide in nature. It is a type of renewable resource and is abundant. It has good biocompatibility, biodegradability and biological activity. The amino and hydroxyl groups in its molecules can be modified, which enables chitosan to contain a variety of functional groups, giving it a variety of properties. In recent years, researchers have used different strategies to synthesize a variety of chitosan derivatives with novel structure and unique activity. Structure combination is one of the main strategies. Therefore, we will evaluate the synthesis and agricultural antimicrobial applications of the active chitosan derivatives structure combinations, which have not been well-summarized. In addition, the advantages, challenges and developmental prospects of agricultural antimicrobial chitosan derivatives will be discussed.

Abstract
Alternaria alternata is a pathogenic fungus that infects jujube fruit and leads to serious economic losses. In this paper, the antifungal activity of chitosan combined with sodium silicate against A. alternata in vitro and in vivo was investigated, and the possible antimicrobial mechanisms were explored. Results showed that the spore germination and colony expansion of A. alternata were significantly inhibited by chitosan. Chitosan treatment induced the leakages of intercellular electrolytes, nucleic acids, and soluble protein of A. alternata. Meanwhile, chitosan damaged the cell morphology and membrane integrity of A. alternata. The combination of chitosan and sodium silicate was more effective than chitosan alone. In addition, the effect of chitosan and sodium silicate could significantly decrease natural rot rate and delay lesion expansion of winter jujube. Collectively, chitosan combined with sodium silicate had the potential to control postharvest diseases of fruit caused by A. alternata.

J Food Biochem 2020; 45:e13569. [PMID: 33249640 DOI: 10.1111/jfbc.13569] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2020] [Revised: 10/01/2020] [Accepted: 11/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Chitin was isolated from Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) shell by demineralization and deproteinization using 1 M HCl (1:20, w/v) for 2 hr and 1 M NaOH (1:30 w/v) for 80 min at 70ºC, respectively, with 29.96% optimum yield. Thereafter, the chitin was deacetylated at various temperatures for different times, in which the chitosan prepared at 130ºC for 4 hr (CS-130-4) showed higher yield (73.11%), crystallinity index (19.75%), and 85.28% degree of deacetylation (DDA) as measured by 1 H-NMR. CS-130-4 was then conjugated to epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) at various concentrations (2-8%, w/w of chitosan). CS-130-4 was grafted with 8% EGCG (CE-8) had the higher conjugation efficiency (92.63%) and antimicrobial/antioxidant activities as compared to other conjugates (p < .05). 1 H-NMR analysis also confirmed the successful conjugation of CE-8. All the conjugates were completely water soluble. Therefore, CE-8 may be used as the natural antimicrobial and antioxidant agents in various food products. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Shrimp shells are generally considered as processing by-products of the shellfish industries and can cause environmental pollution when improperly disposed. Chitosan from shrimp shells has been widely produced but it is soluble mainly in acidic solutions, which limits its applications. However, grafting of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) onto chitosan yielded water-soluble conjugates with enhanced antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Although several preservatives have been applied in foods, their health hazards have been a major concern. To mitigate this limitation, chitosan-EGCG conjugates could be employed as alternative natural preservatives or additives for shelf-life extension of various foods.
