Collagen-based biomaterials constitute one of the most widely studied types of materials for biomedical applications. Low thermal and mechanical parameters are the main disadvantages of such structures. Moreover, they present low stability in the case of degradation by collagenase. To improve the properties of collagen-based materials, different types of cross-linkers have been researched. In recent years, phenolic acids have been studied as collagen modifiers. Mainly, tannic acid has been tested for collagen modification as it interacts with a polymeric chain by strong hydrogen bonds. When compared to pure collagen, such complexes show both antimicrobial activity and improved physicochemical properties. Less research reporting on other phenolic acids has been published. This review is a summary of the present knowledge about phenolic acids (e.g., tannic, ferulic, gallic, and caffeic acid) application as collagen cross-linkers. The studies concerning collagen-based materials with phenolic acids are summarized and discussed.

“…Chitin, like lignocellulosic biomass, needs a multi-step pathway for bioconversion to ethanol. This multi-step process starts with chitin pretreatment, microorganism chitinases production, enzymatic degradation of chitin to NAG and fermentation of NAG [ 8 , 21 ]. The bioconversion process depends mainly on the chitinolytic activity of the used microorganisms.…”

“…Following these reports pointed out strains of Mucor circinelloides able to produce bioethanol directly using chitin as a substrate in the submerged fermentation systems [ 8 ]. Chitin is the most abundant renewable biopolymer in nature after cellulose and has been found in a broad diversity of unicellular [ 18 ] and multicellular organisms [ 19 , 20 , 21 ]. The renewal of the chitin biomass is estimated in the order of 10 10 to 10 11 tons annually since it is the major structural polysaccharide in the cell wall of most fungi, yeasts, shells of crustaceans and insects’ exoskeleton [ 22 , 23 ].…”

Chitin, the second most plentiful biopolymer in nature, is a major component of insect cuticle. In searching for alternative resources for fossil fuels, some fungal strains of Mucor circinelloides from an insect-source were found to produce bioethanol directly using insect chitin as a substrate. Herein, simplified methods for insect chitin extraction and application as a substrate in submerged fermentation for bioethanol production were explored. Chitin of the American cockroach (Periplaneta americana (L.)) was isolated by refluxing the cockroaches dried exoskeletons with 4% NaOH. The purity of the extracted chitin was assessed to be high when the physicochemical properties of the extracted chitin matched these of commercially available crab and shrimp samples. The extracted chitin was employed as a substrate in submerged fermentation using two strains of M. circinelloides. One of these, strains M. circinelloides 6017 showed immense potential for bioethanol production directly. It could to bio-transform 15 g/L of colloidal chitin directly to 11.22 ± 0.312 g/L of bioethanol (74% of the initial chitin mass) after 6 days of incubation. These results confirm the possibility of using insect biomass as a potential alternative resource for bioethanol production in a simple manner thus contributing to the creation of an alternate energy source.

“…Intriguingly, sponge chitinous scaffolds serve as a source of inspiration for biomimetic research including the development of diverse composite materials using "extreme biomimetics route" [2,78,79]. Some sponges of Verongiida order were reported to carry unique biocomposites composed of amorphous silica, crystalline aragonite and chitin [74] that can be used as a «natural example» of chitin mineralization.…”

“…Due to the absence of possible human pathogens in marine biomaterials, a number of them (i.e., collagen, gelatin, keratin) have become an alternative source of long and well-established biopolymers in medicine and cosmetics. Today, modern scaffolding strategies [1][2][3] for tissue engineering are based on the application of diverse already naturally pre-fabricated 3D skeletal constructs of marine invertebrates origin [4]. Sources of marine biomaterials are still plentiful [5] in spite of partial overfishing, dramatic climate changes, and the increasing pollution of the world's oceans with industrial waste.…”

The growing demand for new, sophisticated, multifunctional materials has brought natural structural composites into focus, since they underwent a substantial optimization during long evolutionary selection pressure and adaptation processes. Marine biological materials are the most important sources of both inspiration for biomimetics and of raw materials for practical applications in technology and biomedicine. The use of marine natural products as multifunctional biomaterials is currently undergoing a renaissance in the modern materials science. The diversity of marine biomaterials, their forms and fields of application are highlighted in this review. We will discuss the challenges, solutions, and future directions of modern marine biomaterialogy using a thorough analysis of scientific sources over the past ten years.
