“…The process of fermentation with LAB allows for the biological preservation of bovine colostrum [ 53 ]. The synthesis of numerous antibacterial substances by Lactobacillus strains is well-known, and their antimicrobial properties are influenced by their environment of growth [ 54 ]. In our study, the reduced contamination of fermented bovine colostrum could be related to the ability of LAB to produce inhibitory compounds (acetic and lactic acids, hydrogen peroxide, and others) and to synthesize antimicrobial peptides (bacteriocins) [ 55 ].…”

The main purpose of this experiment was to develop a multifunctional nutraceutical composition based on ingredients of different origins (Spirulina powder (SP), bovine colostrum (BC), Jerusalem artichoke powder (JAP), and apple cider vinegar (ACV)) which possess different health benefits through their different mechanisms of action. In order to improve the functional properties of Spirulina and bovine colostrum, fermentation with the Pediococcus acidilactici No. 29 and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei LUHS244 strains, respectively, was carried out. These LAB strains were chosen due to their good antimicrobial properties. The following parameters were analysed: for Spirulina (non-treated and fermented)—pH, colour coordinates, fatty acid profile, and contents of L-glutamic and GABA acids; for bovine colostrum (non-treated and fermented)—pH, colour coordinates, dry matter, and microbiological parameters (total LAB, total bacteria, total enterobacteria, Escherichia coli, and mould/yeast counts); for the produced nutraceuticals—hardness, colour coordinates, and overall acceptability. It was established that fermentation reduced the pH of the SP and BC and affected their colour coordinates. Fermented SP contained a greater concentration of gamma-aminobutyric and L-glutamic acids (by 5.2 times and 31.4% more, respectively), compared to the non-treated SP and BC. In addition, the presence of gamma-linolenic and omega-3 fatty acids was observed in fermented SP. Fermentation of BC reduces Escherichia coli, total bacteria, total enterobacteria, and total mould/yeast counts in samples. The obtained three-layer nutraceutical (I layer—fermented SP; II—fermented BC and JAP; III—ACV) demonstrated a high overall acceptability. Finally, our finding suggest that the selected nutraceutical combination has immense potential in the production of a multifunctional product with improved functionality and a high acceptability.

“…The search for scientific literature was performed on the Scopus database, which is a globally trusted database for high-quality peer-reviewed materials [ 51 , 52 ]. The Scopus database also has the most extensive coverage and widest citation records among all the scientific databases [ 53 , 54 ]. Figure 1 explains the process of the bibliometric analysis of chitosan for sustainable development [ 55 , 56 ].…”

The Studies on Chitosan for Sustainable Development: A Bibliometric Analysis

2023

Chitosan is a biocompatible polymer with vast applications in pharmacology, medicine, paper making, agriculture, and the food industry due to its low toxicity. Chitosan also plays an important role in the sustainable environment since chitosan is able to absorb greenhouse gases, harmful organic matter, and heavy ions. Therefore, this paper conducts a bibliometric analysis of chitosan for sustainable development using the Scopus database from 1976 to 2023. A performance analysis on the 8002 documents was performed with Harzing’s Publish or Perish. Science mapping was conducted using VOSviewer. The annual publication on chitosan for sustainable development showed an upward trend in recent years as the annual publication peaked in 2022 with 1178 documents with most of the documents being articles and published in journals. Material science, chemistry, and engineering are tightly related subject areas. China had the highest publication of 1560 total documents while the United States had the most impactful publication with 55,019 total citations, 68.77 citations per document, 77.6 citations per cited document, h-index 110, and g-index of 211. India had the largest international collaboration with 572 total link strength. “International Journal of Biological Macromolecules”, “Carbohydrate Polymers”, and “Polymers” have been identified as the top three source titles that publish the most documents on chitosan for sustainable development. The emerging trends in chitosan on sustainable development focus on the application of chitosan as an antibacterial agent and biosorbent for contaminants, especially in water treatment.

“…Bibliometric analysis is a method based on statistical data used to measure the impacts of parameters such as scientific publications, authors, institutions, scientists, and keywords (Biresselioglu et al, 2020). An analysis of publications related to a given research discipline is known as bibliometric analysis, and it is commonly used to assess knowledge structure and development in Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, and Humanities (Pauna et al, 2019;Xie et al, 2020;Katoch, 2021;Murdayanti and Khan, 2021;Mörschbächer and Granada, 2022).…”

Understanding the dynamics and conceptualization of environmental citizenship and energy citizenship: Evidence from the existing literature

This study seeks to better understand the relationships between environmental citizenship, energy citizenship, and related phenomena and the theoretical development and operationalization processes of environmental citizenship and energy citizenship in the path towards the energy transition and climate change mitigation through a bibliometric analysis. Doing so first provides an overview of how these concepts are defined in the literature establishes the frameworks for environmental citizenship and energy citizenship, including the characteristics, drivers, and pathways to their operationalization. The subsequent bibliometric analysis is conducted via the VOSviewer software, with more than 1,300 titles from the Web of Science database published between 1992 and 2021. The search keywords are “environmental citizenship” and “energy citizenship”. The results from the analysis highlight the terms sustainability and behaviour as the overarching concepts and common points of discussion regarding environmental citizenship and energy citizenship. Moreover, although environmental citizenship preserves its central position in the scholarly debate, there is a shift towards the phenomenon of energy citizenship and a set of emerging themes including “justice”, “energy democracy”, and “sustainable development”.
