Abstract Probiotics are highly regarded for their multiple functions, such as regulating gut health, enhancing the immune system, and preventing chronic diseases. However, stability in harsh environments targeted release remain significant challenges. Therefore, exploring effective protection delivery strategies to ensure of probiotics is critically important. Polysaccharides, known non‐toxicity, excellent biocompatibility, superior biodegradability, show broad prospects probiotic by forming physical barriers protect probiotics. Particularly, polysaccharide‐based gels (PBGs), with unique “spider‐web” like structure, capture probiotics, significantly efficacy. This review discusses common polysaccharides used PBG preparation, classification synthesis food applications, advantages PBGs systems. Despite potential, challenges inconsistent gel properties need improved remain. Future research should focus on developing novel materials higher biodegradability mechanical strength, optimizing physicochemical cross‐linking methods, well designing multilayered structures more precise control. Additionally, co‐delivery prebiotics, active ingredients, or multi‐strain systems could further enhance efficacy delivery.

In clinical practice, tissue adhesives have emerged as an alternative tool for wound treatments due to their advantages in ease of use, rapid application, less pain, and minimal damage. Since most are designed internal use or treatments, the biodegradation is important. To endow with biodegradability, past few decades, various biodegradable polymers, either natural polymers (such chitosan, hyaluronic acid, gelatin, chondroitin sulfate, starch, sodium alginate, glucans, pectin, functional proteins, peptides) synthetic poly(lactic acid), polyurethanes, polycaprolactone, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)), been utilized develop novel adhesives. Incorporated degraded vivo time under specific conditions, leading destruction structure further degradation this review, we first summarize strategies utilizing Furthermore, provide a symmetric overview used adhesives, focus on degradability applications these Additionally, challenges perspectives polymer-based discussed. We expect that review can new inspirations design biomedical applications.

Icephobic materials can prevent or reduce ice formation, e.g. by ensuring easy detachment, a desirable property for those applications where accumulation is critical to human safety. Herein, we develop chitosan electrolyte hydrogel create bio-based surface with low adhesion. The physically crosslinked and infused salted water at concentrations from 4.5 30 g/L, including that of seawater (23 g/L). Depending on salt content in the hydrogel, could obtain very adhesion down 140 kPa (at – 10°C). We hypothesize exploits colligative properties avoiding nucleation ice-hydrogel interface. To confirm hypothesis, investigate structure contact angles analysis, DSC, TGA, FTIR, XRD, rheometry mechanical properties. quantify presence non-freezing water, which creates lubricating liquid layer interface, affecting detachment mechanism lowering In conclusion, proposed presents cost-efficient strategy across various icing scenarios systems operating humid marine environments, such as offshore platforms ships.
