“…The characteristics of maltodextrin DE 15-19 resulted in a more viscous solution as it contained higher sugar composition compared to DE 10-14 which resulted in its lower MEE %. Maltodextrin with the same DE values can possess different functional and physicochemical properties, which is dependent on the starch molecular structure itself (Villa-Vélez et al, 2012). According to a micrograph study conducted by Koh et al (2012), COM starch possessed the largest molecule size compared to RB and BB starches.…”

The aim of this work was to investigate the microencapsulation efficiency (MEE) of different grades of broken rice (RB) and breadfruit (BB)-based maltodextrin as a coating material, using virgin coconut oil (VCO) as a model system. The VCO was generally found to be well microencapsulated using BB, RB or commercial (COM) maltodextrin at a core/wall material ratio of 1:3. In comparison to a different dextrose equivalent (DE) group, both RB and BB maltodextrins with DE values of 10-14 showed higher MEE values (84.81-94.39%) than maltodextrins with DE value of 15-19 (78.23-79.65%). Low DE value maltodextrins were shown higher glass transition temperatures than high DE value maltodextrins under the same moisture content. Both RB and BB maltodextrins were found to be compatible with COM maltodextrin as shown in the microstructure appearance when viewed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Exploring the Use of Polyols, Corn, and Beet Juice for Decreasing the Freezing Point of Brine Solution for Deicing of Pavements

Deicing of pavements is essential to ensure safe and timely movement of traffic in geographical locations where snow and ice events are anticipated. State and local municipalities employ brine solution with 23.3 wt% sodium chloride (NaCl) available in the form of rock salt to deice the pavements. Unlike water, the brine solution does not freeze until the temperature falls below −21.0 °C, i.e., the freezing point of water is depressed by −21.0 °C with the addition of 23.3 wt% NaCl. The depressed freezing point of the brine solution plays a key role in deicing pavements. Unfortunately, a further increase in rock salt content does not lower the freezing point of the brine solution. In this study, different combinations of agricultural products such as polyols including sorbitol, maltitol, and mannitol in brine (23.3 wt% of NaCl in water), and NaCl-juice (corn and beet juice) were investigated to achieve freezing point depressions below −21.0 °C for potential deicing applications in extremely cold areas. Different weight fractions of polyols-brine solutions ranging from 7.14% to 27.77% were considered, and corresponding freezing points were determined. While the sorbitol-brine solution exhibited the lowest freezing point of −38.1 °C at a higher concentration, the maltitol-brine solution exhibited a freezing point of −35.6 °C at the same concentration. Based on the °Brix value, beet juice had almost three times more soluble solids and a lower freezing point compared to corn juice. Adding 23.3 wt% of NaCl in 70% corn juice lowered the freezing point up to −23.5 °C.

“…The extract establishes a covalent connection with the phospholipids without being encapsulated as these complexes’ core . Because of the fat-soluble, biocompatible extract phospholipid complex, phytosomes maximize the active element’s bioavailability while also protecting it. , Thus, the preparation and analysis of phytosomes loaded with RCE ( R. cordifolia leaf extract) were the goals of this study. The improved formulation’s numerous distinguishing features and neuroprotective qualities in animal design have been examined.…”

This study aimed to develop a delivery system for the dried aqueous extract of Rubia cordifolia leaves (RCE) that could improve the neuroprotective potential of RCE by improving the bioavailability of the chief chemical constituent rubiadin. Rubiadin, an anthraquinone chemically, is a biomarker phytoconstituent of RCE. Rubiadin is reported to have strong antioxidant and neuroprotective activity but demonstrates poor bioavailability. In order to resolve the problem related to bioavailability, RCE and phospholipids were reacted in disparate ratios of 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 to prepare phytosome formulations PC1, PC2, and PC3, respectively. The formulation PC2 showed particle size of 289.1 ± 0.21 nm, ζ potential of −6.92 ± 0.10 mV, entrapment efficiency of 72.12%, and in vitro release of rubiadin of 89.42% at pH 7.4 for a period up to 48 h. The oral bioavailability and neuroprotective potential of PC2 and RCE were assessed to evaluate the benefit of PC2 formulation over the crude extract RCE. Formulation PC2 showed a relative bioavailability of 134.14% with a higher neuroprotective potential and significantly (p < 0.05) augmented the nociceptive threshold against neuropathic pain induced by partial sciatic nerve ligation method. Antioxidant enzyme levels and histopathological studies of the sciatic nerves in various treatment groups significantly divulged that PC2 has enough potential to reverse the damaged nerves into a normal state. Finally, it was concluded that encapsulated RCE as a phytosome is a potential carrier system for enhancing the delivery of RCE for the efficient treatment of neuropathic pain.
