“…The effect of the use of various origins pectin on the structural and mechanical properties of the obtained polycomposite frameworks has been studied [46]. Various approaches involving the use of scaffolds made of a wide variety of materials, including synthetic and natural polymers, as well as their copolymers, have been experimentally studied to reconstruct skeletal muscle injuries [39,41,[47][48][49][50].…”

Radical polymerization of methylmethacrylate in an aqueous emulsion was carried out using the complex oxide RbTe1.5W0.5O6 as a photoinitiator under visible light irradiation with λ= 400-700 nm. Studies of the process and reaction products using modern methods of physical and chemical analysis (GPC, IR, NMR, etc.) have shown that several directions of monomer transformations occur simultaneously in the reaction mixture. Polymethylmethacrylate, produced in the organic phase and characterized by Mn ~ 140-145 kDa, is a result of polymerization initiation by a hydroxyl radical formed due to complex transformations of electron-hole pairs during irradiation of the photocatalyst. Moreover, the interaction of the hydroxyl radical with OH groups on the complex oxide RbTe1.5W0.5O6 surface and the subsequent formation of oxygen-centered radicals lead to grafting polymer macromolecules onto the photocatalyst surface. In addition, methylmethacrylate is able to oxidize to a cyclic dimer with terminal double bonds and then form a polymer with cyclic dimer links due to coordination by double bonds on the complex oxide RbTe1.5W0.5O6 surface. The high activity of the hydroxyl radical made it possible to obtain the graft copolymer PMMA-pectin by grafting the polymer product onto the surface of the natural polymer-pectin. Comparison of the sponge morphology of the graft copolymer PMMA-pectin and the initial pectin samples using the scanning electron microscopy method showed a noticeable difference in their structural and topological organization. This fact is especially interesting in terms of studying the properties of the graft copolymer as a material for the scaffolds.

Eleocharis dulcis, an aquatic plant belonging to Cyperaceae family, is indigenous to Asia, and also occurs in tropical Africa and Australia. The edible corm part of E. dulcis is a commonly consumed aquatic vegetable with a planting area of 44.46 × 103 hm2 in China. This work aims to explore the potential of E. dulcis corm for use as a new food source for sufficient nutrients and health benefits by reviewing its nutrients, phytochemicals, functions, processing and food products. Eleocharis dulcis corm contains starches, dietary fibers, non‐starch polysaccharides, proteins, amino acids, phenolics, sterols, puchiin, saponins, minerals and vitamins. Among them, phenolics including flavonoids and quinones could be the major bioconstituents that largely contribute to antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, antibacterial, antitumor, hepatoprotective, neuroprotective and hypolipidemic functions. Peel wastes of E. dulcis corm tend to be enriched in phenolics to a much higher extent than the edible pulp. Fresh‐cut E. dulcis corm can be consumed as a ready‐to‐eat food or processed into juice for beverage production, and anti‐browning processing is a key to prolonging shelf life. Present food products of E. dulcis corm are centered on various fruit and vegetable beverages, and suffer from single categories and inadequate development. In brief, underutilized E. dulcis corm possesses great potential for use as a new food source for sufficient nutrients and health benefits. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

The study aims to develop gel beads with improved functional properties and biocompatibility from hogweed (HS) pectin. HS4 and AP4 gel beads were prepared from the HS pectin and apple pectin (AP) using gelling with calcium ions. HS4 and AP4 gel beads swelled in PBS in dependence on pH. The swelling degree of HS4 and AP4 gel beads was 191 and 136%, respectively, in PBS at pH 7.4. The hardness of HS4 and AP4 gel beads reduced 8.2 and 60 times, respectively, compared with the initial value after 24 h incubation. Both pectin gel beads swelled less in Hanks’ solution than in PBS and swelled less in Hanks’ solution containing peritoneal macrophages than in cell-free Hanks’ solution. Serum protein adsorption by HS4 and AP4 gel beads was 118 ± 44 and 196 ± 68 μg/cm2 after 24 h of incubation. Both pectin gel beads demonstrated low rates of hemolysis and complement activation. However, HS4 gel beads inhibited the LPS-stimulated secretion of TNF-α and the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB by macrophages, whereas AP4 gel beads stimulated the inflammatory response of macrophages. HS4 gel beads adsorbed 1.3 times more LPS and adhered to 1.6 times more macrophages than AP4 gel beads. Thus, HS pectin gel has advantages over AP gel concerning swelling behavior, protein adsorption, and biocompatibility.
