Gels derived from single networks of natural polymers (biopolymers) typically exhibit limited physical properties and thus have seen constrained applications in areas like food medicine. In contrast, gels founded on a synergy multiple biopolymers, specifically polysaccharides proteins, with intricate interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) structures, represent promising avenue for the creation novel gel materials significantly enhanced combined advantages. This review begins scrutiny newly devised IPN formed through medley and/or alongside an introduction their practical realm food, medicine, environmentally friendly solutions. Finally, based fact that gelation process mechanism are driven by different inducing factors entwined diverse amalgamation our survey underscores potency physical, chemical, enzymatic triggers orchestrating construction crosslinked within these biomacromolecules. mixed systems, each specific inducer aligns distinct culminating generation semi-IPN or fully-IPN interpenetration between chains two networks, respectively. The resultant stand as paragons excellence, characterized homogeneity, dense superior textural (e.g., hardness, elasticity, adhesion, cohesion, chewability), outstanding water-holding capacity, heightened thermal stability, along guaranteed biosafety nontoxicity biocompatibility) biodegradability. Therefore, judicious selection combinations allows development customized functional properties, adept at meeting precise application requirements.

Conductive Hyaluronic Acid/Deep Eutectic Solvent Composite Hydrogel as a Wound Dressing for Promoting Skin Burn Healing Under Electrical Stimulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 13(17)

Опубликована: Апрель 3, 2024

Abstract Burns can cause severe damage to the skin due bacterial infection and inflammation. Although conductive hydrogels as electroactive burn‐wound dressings achieve remarkable effects on accelerating wound healing, issues such imbalance between their high conductivity mechanical properties, easy dehydration, low transparency must be addressed. Herein, a double‐network eutectogel is fabricated by integrating polymerizable deep eutectic solvents (PDESs)including acrylamide/choline chloride/glycerol (acrylamide‐polymerization crosslink) thiolated hyaluronic acid (disulfide‐bonding crosslink). The introduction of PDESs provides with (up 0.25 S·m −1 ) strength (tensile strain 59–77%) simulating those natural human skin, well satisfactory tissue adhesiveness, self‐healing ability, antibacterial properties. When combined exogenous electrical stimulation, exhibits ability reduce inflammation, stimulate cell proliferation migration, promote collagen deposition angiogenesis, facilitate remodeling. This shows great potential dressing for healing major burn wounds.

Designing healthier and more sustainable ultraprocessed foods

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 23(2)

Опубликована: Март 1, 2024

Abstract The food industry has been extremely successful in creating a broad range of delicious, affordable, convenient, and safe beverage products. However, many these products are considered to be ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) that contain ingredients processed manner may cause adverse health effects. This review article introduces the concept UPFs briefly discusses fall into this category, including beverages, baked goods, snacks, confectionary, prepared meals, dressings, sauces, spreads, meat analogs. It then correlations between consumption levels diet‐related chronic diseases, such as obesity diabetes. different reasons for proposed ability increase risk diseases critically assessed, displacement whole foods, high energy densities, missing phytochemicals, contamination with packaging chemicals, hyperpalatability, harmful additives, rapid ingestion digestion, toxic reaction Then, potential strategies overcome current problems presented, reducing density, balancing nutritional profile, fortification, increasing satiety response, modulating mastication reengineering structure, precision processing. central argument is it possible reformulate reengineer improve their healthiness sustainability, although still needs proved using rigorous scientific studies.
