Summary: Quercetin plays a crucial role in the medical field, but its poor solubility in water limits its absorption and effectiveness as a drug in the body. Chitosan nanoparticles, on the other hand, can serve as drug delivery carriers for poorly soluble drugs. This study successfully prepared chitosan nanoparticles and investigated the drug loading properties of quercetin.

Summary: Ecosystems worldwide are being impacted by microplastic particles, which are widely present in water, sediments, and aquatic organisms. However, these particles are rarely used in laboratory studies due to their limited availability and high cost, especially for tracing purposes. In this study, a new, easy, and cost-effective method for preparing fluorescent microplastic particles is proposed. The particles, made of P(S-co-MMA) polymer with a diameter of 0.7-9 microns, are fluorescently labeled with either rhodamine B isothiocyanate (RITC) or fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). The loading of the dyes is optimized, and the particles are characterized using various techniques. Preliminary tests on aquatic organisms demonstrate the potential use of these fluorescent microplastic particles in bioimaging studies.

Summary: The aim of this study was to enhance the antimicrobial activity of lactoferrin and chitosan by producing nanoparticles through ionic cross-linking with TPP. The nanoparticles were synthesized in varying proportions and characterized for size, zeta potential, morphology, chemical interactions, structure, and antibacterial properties. The nanoparticles with higher zeta potential values and lower hydrodynamic diameters showed strong bacteriostatic action against S. aureus and delayed the ripening and degradation of strawberries when applied as coatings. These findings highlight the potential of these nanoparticles as natural food preservatives.

Summary: This study investigates the energy transfer process between silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) with different emission wavelengths and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). It shows that FITC can act as an electron donor or acceptor, determining the direction of electron transfer between FITC and Ag NCs with different emissions. Additionally, the interaction with Ag NCs effectively inhibits the photo bleaching of FITC, which has significant implications for the application of FITC.

Summary: Crosslinking affects the mechanical behavior and tissue metabolism of collagen-based tissues. Aging and diabetes alter the crosslinking type and density, thus changing tissue properties. High-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking and advanced-glycation end-products result in uniform deformation under daily activity, while low-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking does not. High-connectivity model displays more sliding, while AGEs induce instability in structures near the binding sites.
