Pectin gels based on H+/(NH4)2SO4 and its potential in sustained release of NH4+

Wen-xin Jiang et al.

Summary: A gelling strategy for HP using ammonium sulfate (AS) as a co-solute in acidic environment was proposed. The gel strength of HP was mainly determined by its concentration, and the gel network of HP could limit the migration of AS and water. The release process of NH4+ in HP + AS gel was delayed compared to pure AS, indicating the potential of HP + AS gel in sustained-release fertilizers.

Gel properties transition from mono-succinylation to cross-linking of agar by attemperation with succinic anhydride

Qiong Xiao et al.

Summary: This study achieved an improvement in the gel properties of agar without reducing its gel strength through modification with succinic anhydride. Cross-linking increased the gel strength and transparency of agar, while succinylation enhanced its water-retention capacity, swelling ratio, and freeze-thaw stability.

Ahmet Ulu et al.

Summary: In this study, a multifunctional hydrogel membrane with good mechanical strength, excellent antioxidant efficiency, and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity was developed. The incorporation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) enhanced the antimicrobial activity and antioxidant capacity of the hydrogel membranes. These membranes have potential applications in food packaging and wound healing.

Structure and physicochemical properties of amphiphilic agar modified with octenyl succinic anhydride

Huijing Chen et al.

Summary: The novel amphiphilic agar modified with octenyl succinic anhydride (OSAR) showed higher transparency and freeze-thaw stability, as well as improved emulsion stability and oil loading capacity compared to native agar (NA). With DS values of 0.06 and 0.12, OSAR exhibited increased gel transparency and decreased syneresis, lower interface tension and average molecular weight, decreased thermal stability, enhanced gel springiness, more liquid-like properties with low gel strength, and lower turbidity and melting temperatures than NA.

Fabrication of alginate based microgels for drug-sustained release: In-vitro and in-vivo evaluation

Muhammad Suhail et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effect of alginate, itaconic acid, and N,N'-meth-ylene bisacrylamide in fabricating alginate based microgels for sustained release of theophylline. Characterization studies showed high thermal stability of the microgels and pH-dependent drug release mechanism described by a first order model. In vivo pharmacokinetic study in rabbits demonstrated sustained release properties of the developed microgels.

Preparation, characterization, and application of high-whiteness agar bleached with hydrogen peroxide

Ding An et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that bleaching with hydrogen peroxide can reduce pigment content in agar, increase whiteness, and improve transparency and quality characteristics. High-whiteness agar has lower sulfate and ash content, higher transparency, better thermal stability, and water-holding capacity. It is superior to raw agar in terms of jelly preparation and microbial counting.
