“…With the topological equation of KGM’s molecular conformation parameters, the spatial structure changes of molecular chains can be explained, allowing for the regulation of the KGM molecular structure [ 36 ]. The typical topological “8” type cross-linked ring can enhance the mechanical properties of macromolecules and create a stable network structure, providing thermal stability, even under heating conditions [ 37 , 38 ]. KGM molecules are primarily linked by hydrogen bonds within and between the molecules.…”

Konjac glucomannan (KGM) is a natural polysaccharide extracted from konjac tubers that has a topological structure composed of glucose and mannose. KGM can be used as a gel carrier to load active molecules in food preservation. The three-dimensional gel network structure based on KGM provides good protection for the loaded active molecules and allows for sustained release, thus enhancing the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of these molecules. KGM loaded with various active molecules has been used in aquatic foods preservation, with great potential for different food preservation applications. This review summarizes recent advances in KGM, including: (i) structural characterization, (ii) the formation mechanism, (iii) preparation methods, (iv) functional properties and (v) the preservation of aquatic food.

“…Hydrogels are crosslinked 3D networks that swell with large amounts of water [26,27]. They have been widely used in dressings because they can keep the wound moist, cool the wound, absorb inflammatory exudates from the wound, provide a breathable microenvironment, prevent anaerobic bacteria from colonizing, and release preloaded therapeutic agents [28][29][30][31]. However, the biological efficiency of biomaterials is typically insufficient for multifunctional applications when they are created as hydrogel matrix alone.…”

Hydrogels have been utilized extensively in the field of cutaneous wound treatment. The introduction of nanomaterials (NMs), which are a big category of materials with diverse functionalities, can endow the hydrogels with additional and multiple functions to meet the demand for a comprehensive performance in wound dressings. Therefore, NMs-functionalized hydrogels (NMFHs) as wound dressings have drawn intensive attention recently. Herein, an overview of reports about NMFHs for the treatment of cutaneous wounds in the past five years is provided. Firstly, fabrication strategies, which are mainly divided into physical embedding and chemical synthesis of the NMFHs, are summarized and illustrated. Then, functions of the NMFHs brought by the NMs are reviewed, including hemostasis, antimicrobial activity, conductivity, regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, and stimulus responsiveness (pH responsiveness, photo-responsiveness, and magnetic responsiveness). Finally, current challenges and future perspectives in this field are discussed with the hope of inspiring additional ideas.
