“…Therefore, many research activities regarding bio-based materials have been extensively developed such as cellulose [1][2][3], chitinchitosan [4][5][6], polylactic acid (PLA) [7,8], polybutylene succinate (PBS) [9] as well as natural rubber (NR) [10]. The purpose on the use of bio-based product and process was due to environmental concern.…”

Sliver rubber-hydrogel (Natural Rubber Latex/poly acrylamide/poly methacrylic acid)/silver nanocomposites have been fabricated using gamma radiation techniques. The hydride mixtures of natural rubber latex(NRL) and acrylamide/methacrylic acid (AM/MAA) co-monomer dissolved in 50mL of (0.01 mol) AgNO3 solution and irradiated at 20kGy. Gamma radiation induced combined effect, the crosslinking of NRL/AM/MAA and in situ reduction of Ag+ ions at ambient conditions. A silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) was embedded in crosslinking rubber-hydrogel of (NRL/PAM/PMAA) matrices, resulting in a very uniform dispersion with (30nm) diameter. The pH controlled of sliver rubber-hydrogel of (NRL/ PAM/PMAA)/ Agby alternately the swelling degree of hybrid rubber-hydrogel matrices was evaluated. The effect of silver nanoparticles in-situ in (NRL/PAM/PMAA) matrices on the optical properties of composite films is studied experimentally. The (ATR-FTIR) spectrum and thermal analysis (DSC/TGA) results of the prepared rubber hydrogel showed pure one phase suggesting that there are fully miscible between rubber and hydrogel phases.

“…The innate response is immediate and nonspecific, unlike the adaptive immunity, which is considered the hallmark of the immune system with its specific, yet slower response (Iwasaki & Medzhitov, ; Iwasaki & Pillai, ). Mounting an immune response against harmless foreign molecules is unnecessary and can lead to fatal outcomes such as anaphylactic shock (Patosuo, ). This deleterious response is typically avoided because the adaptive immune response is triggered by the innate immune system only when the latter recognizes molecules of an attacking pathogen (Bonneaud et al, ; Lu et al, ).…”

Humans are exposed to harmful pathogens and a wide range of noxious substances every day.The immune system reacts to, and destroys, these pathogens and harmful substances. The immune system is composed of innate and adaptive immunity, which liaise to protect the host and maintain health. Foods, especially cereals, have been reported to modulate the immune response.Arabinoxylans are nonstarch polysaccharides that have been shown to possess immunemodulatory activities. This review article discusses the fundamentals of the immune system and provides an overview of the immunomodulatory potential of arabinoxylans in conjunction with their structural characteristics and proposed similarities with lipopolysaccharides. Practical applicationsUnderstanding how the immune system works is of vital importance to prevent unnecessary or excessive inflammatory responses. Consumption of arabinoxylans has been shown to possess immunomodulatory potential. However, their mechanism of action has not been elucidated.Arabinoxylans share some similarities with lipopolysaccharides (LPS), a molecule that induces substantial and sometimes excessive immune responses such as fever following infection by pathogens. Thus, we propose that arabinoxylans might possibly act on the same receptor as LPS.Competition between dietary-derived arabinoxylans and LPS at a shared receptor would then have the potential to inhibit or attenuate excessive LPS-induced inflammatory responses that are typical of infection/fever. In the absence of infection and consequently no competition at the LPS receptor, consumption of dietary arabinoxylans may protect against the risk of infection by moderately activating the receptor and heightening natural (background) levels of immunity.
