“…In other cases, low-molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs) might constitute an important pool of ligands, which could result in metal-complex formation. Filamentous fungi secrete considerable quantities of humic and organic acids such as: oxalate, oxalic acid, citric, gluconic, itaconic, and lactic acids (Gadd, 2007;Goldberg and Rokem, 2009;Magnuson and Lasure, 2004;Ogar et al, 2014;Papagianni, 2011). Aspergillus spp.…”

“…Bučková et al [28] also reported "deep" tracks and tunnelling on the surface of the photographic material, and in some places producing holes, presumably to get access to the inner parts of the substrate. They suggested that the tracks were excavated by eso-enzymes secreted by fungal hyphae, but other authors claim that organic acids, such as oxalic, fumaric, citric, itaconic, succinic, lactic or acetic acid, are responsible [29][30][31][32][33][34][35].…”

Despite controlled relative humidity in archives and private collections, fungi are a widespread cause of biodeterioration of cinematographic films and historic photographs, which represent a significant cultural and historic loss to society. Photographic emulsions and coatings are organic and hygroscopic in nature and represent a good and easily accessible source of nutrients. Because archives hold whole stacks of these materials, they subsequently contain more fungi in comparison to other enclosed spaces. This in turn generates a need for a systematic microbiological evaluation of fungi isolated from photographic documents in order to pinpoint the potentially biodeteriorative fungal species and increase awareness and control readiness when these species are encountered.With this aim, we have decided to collect data regarding fungal isolates and their biological potency from the following originating materials: gelatin cellulose triacetate or cellulose nitrate films, albumen or gelatin paper photographs, cellulose nitrate negative films, gelatin glass plate negatives and positive paper prints. In addition, the most efficient biotic degraders of gelatin binder are presented and the degradation of cellulose based supports as well as the occurring microbial interactions and the impact of inhibitory silver salts are reviewed. Lastly, based on the origins of fungal contamination and the occurrence of fungi related to allergenic and toxicogenic diseases, prevention and control measures are suggested.

“…Gallic acid, chemically known as 3, 4, 5-trihydroxybenzoic acid, is a phenolic compound mainly found in the leaves of bear-berries, pomegranate, root bark and many other plants. 112 Gallic acid is a molecule of therapeutic importance due to its intrinsic antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-neoplastic activities.…”

Plant based cross-linkers for tissue engineering applications

Utility of plant-based materials in tissue engineering has exponentially increased over the years. Recent efforts in this area have been focused on substituting synthetic cross-linkers with natural ones derived from biological sources. These cross-linkers are essentially derived from the vegetative components of plants therefore suitably categorised as ‘green’ and renewable materials. Utilization of plant based cross-linkers in scaffolds and hydrogels offers several advantages compared to the synthetic ones. Natural compounds, like ferulic acid and genipin, when incorporated into scaffolds can promote cellular proliferation and growth, by regulation of growth factors. They participate in crucial activities, thus providing impetus for cell growth, function, differentiation and angiogenesis. Several natural compounds inherently possess anti-microbial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, which enhance the inherent characteristics of the scaffolds. Versatility of natural cross-linkers can be exploited for diverse applications. Integrating such potent molecules can enable the scaffold to display relevant characteristics for each function. This review article focuses on the recent developments with plant based cross-linkers that are employed for scaffold synthesis and their applications, which may be explored to synthesize scaffolds suitable for diverse biomedical applications.
