Abstract
Liposomes have become a research hotspot in recent years as food delivery systems with attractive properties, including the bilayer structure assembled like the cell membrane, reducing the side-effect and improving environmental stability of cargos, controlling release, extending duration of functional ingredients, and high biodegradable and biocompatible abilities in the body. However, the conventional liposomes lack stability during storage and are weak in targeted absorption in the gastrointestinal track. At present, surface modification has been approved to be an effective platform to shield these barricades and help liposomes deliver the agents safely and effectively to the ideal site. In this review, the gastrointestinal stability of conventional liposomes, cargo release models from liposomes, and the biological fate of the core materials after release were emphasized. Then, the strategies in both physical and chemical perspectives to improve the stability and utilization of liposomes in the gastrointestinal tract, and the emerging approaches for improving gut targeting by specifically modified liposomes and the intestinal receptors relative to liposomes/cargos absorption were highlighted. Last but not the least, the safety, challenges, and opportunities for the improvement of liposomal bioavailability were also discussed to inspire new applications of liposomes as oral carriers.

Abstract
We describe an experimental study of soft solids composed of micron-scale lipid bilayer vesicles that adhere to one another through electrostatic attraction to an oppositely charged polymer (PDADMAC). As the polymer concentration was increased, we found a fluid phase, a solid gel phase, and a gel composed of internally reorganized vesicles. Optical microscopy images showed a nearly close-packed structure of adhered vesicles that retained their closed-cell morphology. Shear rheology measurements showed that the gel phase is a solid with a modulus at the Pa scale and with linear response up to 70% strain. We found that the modulus depends on the energy per area of membrane-membrane adhesion but does not depend on the vesicle size. We further found that the gels survived osmotic stress or dilution of the adhering polymer but could be rapidly disrupted in response to the addition of strongly binding silica nanoparticles. These results demonstrate the potential for cell-sized lipid vesicles to form a solid platform that maintains the responsive properties of the membranes. Such materials may find applications as triggerable, protective coatings of delicate surfaces.

Abstract
Postoperative adhesion can lead to an increase in the number of surgeries required, longer operation times, and high medical costs, resulting in the quality of life of the patient being lowered. To address these clinical problems, we developed a surgical sealant with anti-adhesion properties for the prevention of postoperative adhesion following application to the large intestine surface. The developed sealant was composed of octyl (C8) group-modified Alaska pollock-derived gelatin (C8-ApGltn) and a poly(ethylene)glycol-based 4-armed crosslinker (4S-PEG) (C8-ApGltn/4S-PEG sealant). Hydrophobic modification of the ApGltn molecule with C8 groups effectively enhanced both the burst strength on the large intestine surface and the bulk modulus. An in vitro anti-adhesion test indicated that cured C8-ApGltn/4S-PEG sealant adhered to the large intestine surface showed low adhesive strength compared with commercial anti-adhesion film. Besides, cured C8-ApGltn/4S-PEG sealant effectively inhibited albumin permeation and penetration of L929 fibroblasts. In vivo experiments using a rat peritoneal anti-adhesion model showed that C8-ApGltn/4S-PEG sealant acted as a sealing barrier on the target cecum surface and also provided an anti-adhesion barrier to prevent postoperative adhesion between the peritoneum and cecum. C8-ApGltn/4S-PEG sealant showed sufficient cytocompatibility and biodegradability and therefore has potential for use in gastroenterological surgery.

Abstract
The therapeutic potential of liposomes can be amplified when combined with biomaterial scaffolds. Such configurations overcome the convergent demands of therapies by enabling enhanced delivery, environmental responsiveness and potency. Liposomes benefit from the increased physical and mechanical strength, favorable rheological properties and natural environment conducive to improved tissue formation that scaffolds provide, while enabling biocompatible delivery of hydrophilic and lipophilic compounds that can be further functionalized to achieve targeted delivery. Topical, ocular, oral, nasal and vaginal applications have been explored using various polymer- or nanofiber-based scaffolds. Mechanistic and rheological findings on complexation between biomaterials, liposomes and cargo have led to multimodal systems with tremendous clinical potential. A review of the key developments in bioengineered liposome-scaffold composites is presented in this manuscript.

Abstract
This study introduces a new type of uniform liposome-analogous vesicle with a highly stable shell structure in which water-in-oil-in-water double emulsion drops fabricated in a capillary-based microfluidic device are used as templates. The vesicles developed in this work consist of a poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogel core surrounded by a polyurethane (PU) film between 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) layers. Subjecting the double emulsion templates to UV irradiation leads to the formation of a PU elastomer film between the DPPC layers. The presence of a thin PU film sandwiched between the DPPC layers is confirmed by confocal laser microscopy. The thicknesses of the PU films are measured to be approximately ∼4μm. Further study reveals the incorporation of the PU film between the DPPC layers remarkably improves the shell impermeability. Our vesicle system is expected to be useful for regulating the permeation of small molecules through lipid-based vesicular films.

Abstract
This Special Issue “Biodegradable Materials” features research and review papers concerning recent advances on the development, synthesis, testing and characterisation of biomaterials. These biomaterials, derived from natural and renewable sources, offer a potential alternative to existing non-biodegradable materials with application to the food and biomedical industries amongst many others. In this Special Issue, the work is expanded to include the combined use of fillers that can enhance the properties of biomaterials prepared as films. The future application of these biomaterials could have an impact not only at the economic level, but also for the improvement of the environment.
