The effects of low molecular weight diluents (namely water and glycerol) on the nanostructure and thermodynamic state of low water content gelatin matrices are explored systematically by combining positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) with calorimetric measurements. Bovine gelatin matrices with a variation in the glycerol content (0–10wt.%) are equilibrated in a range of water acti...

A 42-kDa gelatin binding fragment of human plasma fibronectin was labeled with fluorescein and its fluid-phase interaction with gelatin was investigated. At 25 degrees C in 0.1 M Tris, 0.15 M NaCl, pH 7.3, a dissociation constant, Kd = 0.6 microM, was obtained from the dependence of fluorescence polarization on gelatin concentration. An identical value was obtained for the unlabeled fragment by...

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4/CD26) and seprase/fibroblast activation protein A are homologous type II transmembrane, homodimeric glycoproteins that exhibit unique prolyl peptidase activities. Human DPP4 is ubiquitously expressed in epithelial and endothelial cells and serves multiple functions in cleaving the penultimate positioned prolyl bonds at the NH2 terminus of a variety of physiological...

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4/CD26) and seprase/fibroblast activation protein alpha are homologous type II transmembrane, homodimeric glycoproteins that exhibit unique prolyl peptidase activities. Human DPP4 is ubiquitously expressed in epithelial and endothelial cells and serves multiple functions in cleaving the penultimate positioned prolyl bonds at the NH(2) terminus of a variety of physiol...

In their review of gelatin tannate (GT) Ruszczyński et al [1] extensively explain tannic acid (TA) activity and they may give the impression that TA is responsible for the mechanism of action of GT and also responsible for the possible adverse effects of the product. Various in vivo studies have demonstrated that GT is a stable complex not dissociated in the small intestine. Therefore any refer...

Gelatin is considered as a partially degraded product of collagen and it is a biodegradable polymer which can be used to produce scaffolds for tissue engineering. Three-dimensional, porous gelatin scaffolds were fabricated by thermally induced phase separation and freeze-drying method. Their porous structure and pore size were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Scaffolds with differ...

The gelatin/gum Arabic microcapsules encapsulating peppermint oil were prepared by complex coacervation using tannic acid as hardening agent. The effects of various parameters, including concentration of wall material, core material, tannic acid and tween80 were investigated on particle size and encapsulation efficiency. For statistical evaluation of the parameters, Taguchi method has been used...

Gelatin was extracted from hydrolyses of collagen muscle bonds. Gelatin was of two types. Type A was obtained from acidic and type B from alkaline procedures. In the present study we used sturgeon fish skin to produce 25 samples of gelatin. Microbiological and chemical examinations were conducted on the gelatin samples. Based on the results obtained from the chemical examination, gelatin type A...

Present study describes microencapsulation of eugenol using gelatin-sodium alginate complex coacervation. The effects of core to coat ratio and drying method on properties of the eugenol microcapsules were investigated. The eugenol microcapsules were evaluated for surface characteristics, micromeritic properties, oil loading and encapsulation efficiency. Eugenol microcapsules possessed good flo...
