plants gums, hydrophilic colloids, hydrocolloids, mucilages and hydrophilic polymers are compounds that can produce gel. coating materials which applied on food products increased shelf life of food by affecting water loss, gas exchange, oxidation process and decreasing the food spoilage and affect shelf life of food products. coating material could carry antioxidant, antibacterial and/or other...

Generation of immense quantity of underutilized marine processing byproducts has long been recognized as wastes and greater efforts were given to use these materials in various applications. With a great number of researches on these byproducts, some biologically active compounds were identified and implicated to the useful compounds for human utilization. Chitosan and silver nanoparticle have ...

Abstract Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a microbiologically produced with high purity and excellent biocompatibility, allowing it to be used alone or in combination other materials, including polymers nanoparticles. This study was conducted incorporate silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) into BC matrix using simple environmentally friendly methods order create composite superior industrial properties. Th...

Nanoparticle Drug Delivery The encapsulation of nanoparticles in hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose is key to treat colorectal cancer through oral administration. In article 2202672 by Ilaria Rea, Hélder A. Santos, and co-workers, gelatin-coated diatomite loaded with galunisertib are functionalized an anti-L1-CAM antibody that targets metastatic colon cells. These then encapsulated a gastro-resista...

Sunscreens rely on multiple compounds to provide effective and safe protection against UV radiation. UV filters in sunscreens, in particular, provide broadband UV protection but are heavily linked to adverse health effects due to the generation of carcinogenic skin-damaging reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon solar irradiation. Herein, we demonstrate significant reduction in the ROS concentratio...

Molecular imaging with photoacoustic ultrasound is an emerging field that combines the spatial and temporal resolution of ultrasound with the contrast of optical imaging. However, there are few imaging agents that offer both high signal intensity and biodegradation into small molecules. Here we describe a cellulose-based nanoparticle with peak photoacoustic signal at 700 nm and an in vitro limi...

Cellulose-based paper electronics is an attractive technology to meet the growing demands for naturally abundant, biocompatible, biodegradable, flexible, inexpensive, lightweight and highly miniaturizable sensory materials. The price reduction of industrial carbon nanotube (CNT) grades offers opportunities manufacture electrically conductive papers whose resistivity responsive environmental sti...

Due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and non-toxicity, lignocellulosic-derived nanoparticles are very potential materials for drug carriers in delivery applications. There three main discussed this review. First, lignin (LNPs) an amphiphilic nanoparticle which has versatile interactions toward hydrophilic or hydrophobic drugs. The synthesis methods of LNPs play important role charac...
