The results demonstrated that agar/κ-carrageenan hydrogel is a promising adsorbent for the removal of cationic dyes from water.Encapsulation effectively delays the volatilization of lemon essential oil (LEO). Here, various chitosan (CS)-LEO nanoparticles were prepared by emulsification using different CS and Tween-80 concentrations and CSTPP and CSLEO ratios. The CS-LEO nanoparticles were spherical, small in size (58 ± 9 nm), had a low polydispersity index (0.15), and were highly stable under the right conditions. FTIR spectra indicated that they were fully encapsulated in the films. The composite films are characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Relative to grass carp collagen (GCC) films, edible GCC/CS-LEO had lower oxygen permeability (OP), higher tensile strength (TS), and higher elongation at break (EB). The LEO release rate increased with decreasing GCCCS-LEO ratio. At GCCCS-LEO ratio = 73, a maximum LEO release rate of 83.6 ± 9.7% was achieved over 15 days. GCC/CS-LEO films can effectively inhibit lipid oxidation, prevent microbial proliferation, and delay the deterioration of pork at 4 °C for 21 days.Present work reports the green synthesis of chitosan functionalized silver nanoparticles (CS-AgNPs) using ethanolic buds extract of Sygyzium aromaticum. CS-AgNPs were characterized physically, evaluated for antibacterial, anticoagulant and antiplatelet activities, and toxicity profile. The physical characterization of CS-AgNPs was done by UV/vis, SEM, TEM, FTIR and EDX. The sphericity was found uniform. FTIR and EXD showed noninterfering few impurities. The antibacterial activity against VRSA (ZI, 23.2 ± 0.51 mm) and MRSA (ZI, 25.8 ± 0.32 mm) were determined. The rise in bleeding and thromboplastin was observed highly significant while increased in prothrombin and activated partial prothrombin time in significant manner at both the doses of CS-AgNPs (0.025 mg/kg and 0.05 mg/kg). Reduction in the levels of fibrinogen was also highly significant. Platelet aggregation decreased at high dose of CS-AgNPs i.e. 55.14 ± 8.25% (arachidonic acid) and 13.06 ± 2.17% (collagen). Thrombin antithrombin (TAT) complex activity was found highest for CS-AgNPs. Cytotoxicity was assessed using HeLa cell lines (LC50; 125 μg/ml) and brine shrimp lethality tests (LC50; 518 μg/ml). The work suggests that green synthesized chitosan functionalized silver nanoparticles may be utilized as an effective antibacterial agent and anticoagulant with low toxicity. The current findings will open a new window for nanomedicine development and future clinical application.The objective of this paper was to investigate the new formulations based on salicyl-imine-chitosan hydrogels as potential controlled drug release systems. They were prepared by in situ hydrogelation of chitosan with salicylaldehyde in the presence of diclofenac sodium salt (DCF) as model drug. FTIR, X-ray Spectroscopy, POM and SEM techniques were used to confirm the structural, supramolecular and morphological particularities of the formulations. Swelling test, in vitro enzymatic biodegradation and release profile were investigated in similar conditions mimicking the in vivo environment, and the release mechanism was assessed by fitting into five mathematical models. It was established that the formulations have the capacity to release DCF in a sustained manner for 10 days rate, the drug release rate being correlated to the crosslinking density and hydrogelation speed. The biodegradation occurred in three main stages, reaching a mass loss of 48% after 21 days. In order to be used in the biomedical field, the in vivo biocompatibility of the formulations was investigated on experimental rats. After 7 days of subcutaneous implantation, no influence on the hematologic profile, liver, kidney or immune defence capacity were observed, suggesting these formulations as valuable materials for biomedical devices.Hydrocolloid-based films containing natural phenolic antioxidants (gallic and trans-cinnamic acids at 5% w/wt of polymers) embedded in a gelatin/chitosan matrix were designed as sustainable active packaging. This work deals with characterizing the release mechanisms of the phenolic acids from the films immersed into food simulants (sugar or polyol solutions) having different water activities and viscosities. The films containing gallic acid exhibited higher antioxidant activities than the trans-cinnamic acid films. Indisulam The use of sucrose or glycerol to reduce the water activity (aw) both decreases the iron chelating power (antioxidant) and the E Coli growth (antimicrobial). Interactions involved between macromolecules (chitosan and gelatin) and phenolic compounds influence the release kinetic parameters (diffusivity, convection and partition coefficients) that were studied according to the nature of solute, the water activity and the viscosity of the release media. Thermal analysis (TGA and DSC) revealed a plasticization by both sucrose and glycerol, which entered the film.The oligosaccharides from agar hydrolysis have special biological activities, and exhibit application prospects in cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical industry. In this study, two novel β-agarases (AgaA and AgaB) were screened and characterized. It was found that the AgaA was an endo-type agarase which could efficiently hydrolyzed agar or agarose to form neoagarobiose (NA2), neoagarotetraose (NA4) and neoagarohexaose (NA6), while the AgaB was an exo-type and bifunctional enzyme that showed activities towards both agarose and porphyran. Based on the properties of the two enzymes, we developed modular strategy for enzymatic production of neoagarobiose through a two-stage hydrolysis reaction. The cheap substrate agar was first liquefied by AgaA at high temperature to form neoagaroligosaccharides, which together with the sulfated polysaccharides were homogenized by AgaB to form neoagarobiose as the final product. High concentration of agar (10 g/L) was almost completely converted into neoagarobiose with high purity.Cellulose is an abundant feedstock with renewability and biodegradability. However, it is still challenging to manufacture natural cellulose products by environmentally friendly thermoplastic processing methods. Herein, we proposed a green approach for the heterogeneous preparation of thermoplastic cellulose grafted polyurethane (RCP-g-PU) from amorphous regenerated cellulose paste (RCP) via hydroxyl/isocyanate chemistry. First, amorphous RCP was fabricated through dissolving cellulose in sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and regenerating in polyethylene glycol, resulting in the enhancement of the accessibility of hydroxy groups in cellulose chains. Subsequently, a series of thermoplastic RCP-g-PU with the melt flow temperatures ranging from 160 °C to 226 °C were feasibly synthesized by adding hexamethylene diisocyanate into RCP without using other organic solvents. Eventually, the resultant RCP-g-PU can be directly hot-pressed into transparent films with flexibility and foldability. The reported methodology represents a sustainable route to achieve thermoplastic cellulose derivatives.
