thyme essential oils (eo) with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties are widely used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and perfume industry. it is also used for flavoring and preservation of several foods. nowadays, packaging research is receiving a considerable attention due to the development of eco-friendly materials made from natural polymers such as starch and chitosan. in this study thymus ...

The physical and chemical properties of composite starch-based films containing cellulosic fiber, chitosan, and gelatin were investigated. Films containing both cellulosic fibers and chitosan demonstrated tremendous enhancements in film strength and gas permeation. The water absorbency of composite films could be greatly reduced in film composites containing cellulosic fibers and gelatin, but t...

Drug polluted waters are treated by various methods. Among the chemical methods the advanced oxidation process is adopted in this work using copper oxide nanocubes stabilized with green polymers namely chitosan and starch. Copper oxide nanocubes (CuOnc) are characterized using FTIR, FESEM and HRTEM. The edge side length of nanocubes of starch and chitosan stabilized CuO are found to be 10 ± 1nm...

Fluorescent nanostructures (NSs) derived from polysaccharides have drawn great attention as novel fluorescent probes for potential bio-imaging applications. Herein, we reported a facile alkali-assisted hydrothermal method to fabricate polysaccharide NSs using starch and chitosan as raw materials. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) demonstrated that the average particle sizes are 14 nm and 7...

Four kinds of edible composite films based on chitosan combined with additional substances (konjac glucomannan, cassava starch, maltodextrin and gelatin) the addition lysozyme were prepared used as packaging materials for Mongolian cheese. The evaluated using scanning electron microscopy Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. physicochemical properties all films, including thickness, viscosit...

Prolonged bleeding is a general complication that occurs after tooth extraction or oral surgery. Thus, patients must apply pressure and use absorbable wound dressings to stop prevent blood loss. This method stops causes clotting of blood. However, some people have disorders cannot with applied Therefore, haemostatic foam dressing an interesting material can be used without hindering in the site...

The edible coating is one alternative that has the potential to extend shelf life of sausages. This study aimed determine effect type packaging and storage times beef sausages at frozen storage. using factorial completely randomized design (CRD) with two factors. first factor (K1: durian seeds starch-chitosan; K2: starch-chitosan kesum leave extract; K3: plastic LDPE). second time (L0: 0 months...

This study used a rat subcutaneous implantation model to investigate gradual in situ pore formation in a self-regulating degradable chitosan-based material, which comprises lysozyme incorporated into biomimetic calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings at the surface to control the scaffold degradation and subsequent pore formation. Specifically, the in vivo degradation of the scaffolds, the in situ por...

A novel bio nanocomposite of Carboxymethyl Starch (CMS)-Chitosan (CS)-Montmorillonite (MMT) was developed for Curcumin delivery. To improve Curcumin entrapment into Cs-CMS-MMT, different ratios of Chitosan (Cs), Carboxymethyl Starch (CMS) and MMT were used. Particle size and Curcumin entrapment efficiency (EE) were highly affected by different formulation variables. Polysaccharide concentration...
