Advancements in Oral Delivery Systems for Probiotics Based on Polysaccharides

Polymers, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 17(2), P. 144 - 144

Published: Jan. 8, 2025

Probiotics are an essential dietary supplement for intestinal flora balance, inhibition of pathogenic bacteria and immune regulation. However, probiotic inactivation during gastrointestinal transportation remains a big challenge oral administration. Hence, delivery systems (ODSs) based on polysaccharides have been constructed to protect probiotics from harsh environments. Cellulose, chitosan, alginate their derivates used form protective layer probiotics. This review summarizes the superiority application in forming layers Meanwhile, ODS processes including extrusion, emulsion spray drying also summarized. The preparation technique mechanism, microparticle formation process especially role serve overviewed. Lastly, need cell viability retention dehydration construction core-shell microparticles is emphasized this review.

Cation‐Alginate Complexes and Their Hydrogels: A Powerful Toolkit for the Development of Next‐Generation Sustainable Functional Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Nov. 8, 2024

Abstract The use of materials from renewable sources instead fossil fuels is a crucial step forward in the industrial transition toward sustainability. Among polysaccharides, alginate stands out as versatile and eco‐friendly candidate due to its ability form functional complexes with cations. This review provides an up‐to‐date comprehensive description complexation specific cations, focusing on how interaction forces can be harnessed tailor physicochemical properties cation‐alginate‐based materials. Methodologies approaches for development multiscale characterization these are introduced discussed. Alginate mono‐, di‐, tri‐, tetravalent cations (namely Ag + , Mg 2+ Ca Sr Ba Mn Co Ni Cu Zn Cd Pb UO 2 Cr 3+ Fe Al Ga Y La Ce Nd Eu Tb Gd Zr 4+ Th ) reviewed. Each cation discussed individually, highlighting it uniquely influence material thereby unlocking new potentials design advanced Key challenges opportunities applying across diverse fields, such biomedicine, environmental remediation, food additives supplements, flame retardants, sensors, supercapacitors, catalysis, mechanical isolators assessed, providing evidence transformative potential cation‐alginate tackling global advancing cutting‐edge technologies.
