Summary: Chitosan/PVA nanofibrous electroresponsive soft actuators were successfully prepared using electrospinning, exhibiting rapid displacement under acidic conditions. Chitosan/PVA nanofibers were characterized and electroactive response was evaluated. The bending speed displacement of the nanofibers showed a correlation with chitosan content and pH, with the highest speed displacement (1.86 mm(-1)) observed in a pH 3 sample with 4 wt.% chitosan content. The proportion of free amine groups, determined by deconvoluting the FTIR spectra, increased with higher chitosan content, with percentages of 3.6% and 4.59% for nanofibers containing 2.5 wt.% and 4 wt.% chitosan, respectively.

Summary: Anthocyanins are extracted using alternative solvents such as ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, and natural deep eutectic solvents, which are more environmentally friendly and efficient compared to conventional solvents. Acid-based deep eutectic solvents with 20-30% water content showed the highest anthocyanin extraction yield. Ultrasonic-assisted extraction was the most common and efficient method, and DES-based extracts exhibited the highest stability and antioxidant activity. Fruits and their by-products are the most commonly used samples, while cereal and legumes are less explored.

Summary: In this study, three deep eutectic mixtures (DES) were used as mediums to synthesize glucose laurate and glucose acetate. Lipases from Aspergillus oryzae (LAO), Candida rugosa (LCR), and porcine pancreas (LPP) were employed as catalysts. The results showed that DES did not deactivate the lipases when used as medium. For transesterification reactions, combining LAO or LCR with DES 3 resulted in efficient production of glucose laurate, while LPP performed best in DES 2 for glucose acetate synthesis. Substituting vinyl laurate with vinyl acetate led to different behaviors, with LCR and LPP showing better catalytic activity in DES 1 for glucose acetate production. LAO had lower activity, with only around 40% product yield in DES 3. These findings highlight the potential of biocatalysis combined with greener solvents for the synthesis of differentiated sugar fatty acid esters.

Summary: Solution electrospinning with precise control of solution temperature is achieved using a syringe-jacket heat exchanger. By manipulating the temperature, the evaporation rate of solvents can be effectively controlled, enabling the electrospinning of polymers that are not feasible at ambient conditions. This study demonstrates the successful electrospinning of poly(vinylidene fluoride)-co-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP) from highly volatile solvents, such as acetone, for the first time. The ability to precisely adjust solution temperature during electrospinning improves process control and expands the range of spinnable solutions. By replacing highly toxic solvents with less-toxic solvents like acetone, the potential applications of the produced fibers are significantly increased.

Summary: Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are composed of a hydrogen bond donor and acceptor, and the interactions between them significantly lower the melting point of the mixture. Despite having eutectic melting temperatures above room temperature, all investigated DESs were able to appear liquid at room temperature under ambient conditions due to low RH0.

Summary: The study showed that the complex coacervation of positively charged chitosan and negatively charged whey protein isolate led to the formation of composite films with higher tensile strength, lower deformation, and improved water vapor permeability compared to mono-component films. The incorporation of chitosan also resulted in a decrease in equilibrium moisture content of the composite films, which exhibited homogeneous structure, color transparency, and desirable properties for food applications and packaging technology.

Summary: This study investigated novel bio-based films containing Locust Bean Gum (LBG) and Chitosan (CH) or Chitosan nanoparticles (CHNPs)/natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES). The films were prepared by a semi-continuous knife-coating process. The characterization results showed that the films were transparent, uniform, and without cracks or pores. The addition of CHNPs reduced the apparent viscosity of LBG solution and the presence of NADES provided more flexible films with less mechanical and barrier resistance.

Summary: This study investigates the use of a ternary natural deep eutectic solvent for the extraction of polyphenolic compounds from green tea. The extracted solutions are then used to improve the properties of chitosan films, and the resulting films are evaluated for mechanical, water resistance, optical, and microstructural properties. The presence of GT polyphenolic compounds leads to different surface structures, and films with 10% of NADES show good high water barrier properties and higher resistance.

Summary: In this study, the phenolic content of Moringa oleifera leaves was qualitatively analyzed using deep eutectic solvents (DES) based on choline chloride (ChCl) with lactic acid (LA) or glycerol (GLY). High-resolution mass spectrometry was used for analysis. The study found that both DES-LA and DES-GLY were effective in extracting phenolic compounds, and ten compounds were identified. The antioxidant profile of the extracts was also studied, showing high antioxidant capacity. Films based on methylcellulose (MC) with varying amounts of DES or MO extracts were developed and characterized. The presence of MO extract and DES in the films increased flexibility but reduced mechanical and barrier resistance.

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.

The results showed that the multi-layer nanoemulsions significantly enhanced the cellular uptake and antioxidant activity of alpha-tocopherol compared to free coumarin 6. Furthermore, the use of chitosan and dextran sulfate as wall materials in the multi-layer nanoemulsions led to even higher cellular uptake, in vitro bioaccessibility, and antioxidant activity of alpha-tocopherol.
