“…Outra funcionalidade da quitosana, é a sua importante ação antimicrobiana, por isso, tem-se estudado seu efeito na conservação de alimentos, como forma alternativa para substituição de conservantes sintéticos (Inanli et al, 2020). Apesar do mecanismo de ação antimicrobiana não estar totalmente claro, Manigandan et al (2018) sugerem que esse efeito está relacionado a interação entre as naturezas policatiônicas da quitosana com membranas microbianas carregadas negativamente, provocando o vazamento intracelular e consequente desequilíbrio osmótico interno, o que resulta na inibição do crescimento de micro-organismos.…”

Alimentos funcionais são uma tendência de mercado devido a possibilidade de fabricação de produtos processados mais saudáveis, com benefícios à saúde e sensorialmente agradáveis, agregando assim valor aos produtos. Essa pesquisa teve como objetivo revisar as propriedades funcionais dos compostos bioativos β-glucanas, inulina, psyllium, quitosana e licopeno, demonstrando as possibilidades de utilização pela indústria de alimentos no desenvolvimento de novos produtos, apresentando suas composições, aplicações tecnológicas e características funcionais. Tais compostos bioativos possuem grandes possibilidades de uso em produtos da panificação, produtos lácteos, cárneos e bebidas. Do ponto de vista tecnológico, a indústria de alimentos brasileira pode explorar suas aplicações na reformulação de produtos mais saudáveis, com diferentes texturas e apelos de mercados.

“…An in situ gelatin-reduced porous AgNP/Chitosan SP film-containing wound dressing has recently been reported to be highly effective in successfully healing an implanted and S. aureus -infected wound within 15 days in a rabbit model [182]. Chitosan and gelatin are widely used in the food and clinical industries as antibacterial agents, food preservatives and thickening agents [183,184]. Moreover, chitosan has also been used in synthesis of different SPs that showed considerable in vitro antibacterial efficacy [185,186,187].…”

Multiple drug resistance (MDR) for the treatment of bacterial infection has been a significant challenge since the beginning of the 21st century. Many of the small molecule-based antibiotic treatments have failed on numerous occasions due to a surge in MDR, which has claimed millions of lives worldwide. Small particles (SPs) consisting of metal, polymer or carbon nanoparticles (NPs) of different sizes, shapes and forms have shown considerable antibacterial effect over the past two decades. Unlike the classical small-molecule antibiotics, the small particles are less exposed so far to the bacteria to trigger a resistance mechanism, and hence have higher chances of fighting the challenge of the MDR process. Until recently, there has been limited progress of clinical treatments using NPs, despite ample reports of in vitro antibacterial efficacy. In this review, we discuss some recent and unconventional strategies that have explored the antibacterial efficacy of these small particles, alone and in combination with classical small molecules in vivo, and demonstrate possibilities that are favorable for clinical translations in near future.

“…This latter is principally produced by mollusks, arthropods (crustaceans and insects) and fungi [7]. However, chitin and its derivatives have a high economic impact due to their numerous applications in the pharmaceutical [8], food [9,10], cosmetics [11], textile [12], wastewater treatment and agricultural sectors [13].…”

Recently, chitosan (CS) was given much attention as a functional biopolymer for designing various hydrogels for industrial, environmental and biomedical applications, but their biomedical use is limited due to the toxicity of the crosslinker agents. To overcome this inconvenience, we developed an auto cross-linked material based on a chitosan backbone that carries an amino and aldehyde moieties. This new drug delivery system (DDS) was designed by using oxidized chitosan (OCS) that crosslinks chitosan (CS). In the first part, a simple, rapid, low-cost and eco-friendly green method was introduced to synthesize magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4-NPs) successfully. These nanoparticles Fe3O4 have received a great deal of attention in the biomedical field. Especially in a targeted drug delivery system, drug-loaded Fe3O4-NPs can accumulate at the tumor site by the aid of an external magnetic field and increase the effectiveness of drug release to the tumor site. In the second part, we have incorporated the Fe3O4-NPs into chitosan/oxidized chitosan solution because of their unique magnetic properties, outstanding magnetism, biocompatibility, lower toxicity, biodegradability, and other features. Three drugs (5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), Caffeine and Ascorbic acid)) were embedded into the magnetite solution that became quickly a hydrogel. The successful fabrication of the hydrogels and ferrogels was confirmed by (FT-IR), (TGA), (SEM), (VSM) analysis at room temperature. Finally, results showed that our hydrogels and ferrogels may be technologically used as devices for drug delivery in a controllable manner.
