Abstract:

The environmental problems generated by pollution due to polymers of petrochemical origin have led to the search for eco-friendly alternatives such as the development of biopolymers or bio-based polymers. The aim of this work was to evaluate the electrochemical behavior of a biopolymer composite made from cassava starch and cardol extracted from cashew nut shell liquid. The biopolymers were prepared using the thermochemical method, varying the synthesis pH and the cardol amounts. The biopolymers were synthesized in the form of films and characterized by cyclic voltamperometry and electrochemic

Abstract:

Due to the complex structures of living systems, the use of microtechnology to recreate in vivo architecture has exciting potential applications. Living tissues maintain a well-organized three-dimensional (3-D) architecture, with “micro” and “nano” scale features. Microtechnologies offer the new possibility of designing and building sensors and devices in dimensional scales close to that of living tissues.1–2 However, most available microscale systems are two-dimensional, and few 3-D systems are being explored. Therefore, we have developed a versatile technique to create a 3-D microscale hiera

Abstract:

This mini-review focuses on the various roles that ionic liquids play in the development and applications of biopolymer-based drug delivery systems (DDSs). Biopolymers are particularly attractive as drug delivery matrices due to their biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, biodegradability, and strength, whereas ILs can assist the formation of drug delivery carriers as 1. dopants to control drug release rate; 2. anchoring agents to incorporate APIs into biopolymeric materials; 3. actives (in the form of API-ILs) for controlled release; or 4. a matrix preparation media.

Abstract:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) impacts the greenhouse effect significantly and results in global warming, prompting urgent attention to climate change concerns. In response, CO2 capture has emerged as a crucial process to capture carbon produced in industrial and power processes before its release into the atmosphere. The main aim of CO2 capture is to mitigate the emissions of greenhouse gas and reduce the anthropogenic impact on climate change. Biopolymer nanocomposites offer a promising avenue for CO2 capture due to their renewable nature. These composites consist of biopolymers derived from biologica

Abstract:

Biopolymers and biopolymer colloids can act as controlling agents and templates not only in many processes in nature, but also in a wide range of synthetic approaches. Inorganic materials can be either synthesized ex situ and later incorporated into a biopolymer structuring matrix or grown in situ in the presence of biopolymers. In this review, we focus mainly on the latter case and distinguish between the following possibilities: (i) biopolymers as controlling agents of nucleation and growth of inorganic materials; (ii) biopolymers as supports, either as molecular supports or as carrier parti

Petroleum-based plastic packaging materials have negative impacts on the environment and food safety. Natural biopolymer-based food packaging materials are the proper substitutes for plastic-based ones, which is because biopolymers are nontoxic, biodegradable and even edible. The incorporation of bioactive and functional substances into a biopolymer-based film matrix can produce novel smart packaging materials. Anthocyanins, one class of natural colorants with potent antioxidant activity and pH-response color-changing ability, are suitable for producing biopolymer-based smart packaging films.

The aim of this work was to explore how various surface treatments would change the dispersion component of surface energy and acid-base character of hemp nanofibers, using inverse gas chromatography (IGC), and to investigate the effect of the incorporation of these modified nanofibers into a biopolymer matrix on the properties of their nano-composites. Bio-nanocomposite materials were prepared from poly (lactic acid) (PLA) and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) as the matrix, and the cellulose nanofibers extracted from hemp fiber by chemo-mechanical treatments.

Abstract:

Waste from non-degradable plastics is becoming an increasingly serious problem. Therefore, more and more research focuses on the development of materials with biodegradable properties. Bio-polymers are excellent raw materials for the production of such materials. Bio-based biopolymer films reinforced with nanostructures have become an interesting area of research. Nanocomposite films are a group of materials that mainly consist of bio-based natural (e.g., chitosan, starch) and synthetic (e.g., poly(lactic acid)) polymers and nanofillers (clay, organic, inorganic, or carbon nanostructures), wit

This study investigated the bioactivity of common ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.) and manna ash (Fraxinus ornus L.) leaf extracts, both in the crude form and incorporated into a biopolymer matrix, against spongy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) larvae. Chemical analysis revealed that both species were abundant in polyphenolic compounds, with common ash containing significant quantities of p-hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives and verbascoside, while manna ash was rich in coumarins, particularly aesculetin and aesculin.

Abstract:

Biopolymer hydrogel-based scaffold materials have received a lot of interest in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine because of their unique characteristics, which include biocompatibility, biodegradability, and the ability to replicate the natural extracellular matrix (ECM). These hydrogels are three-dimensional biopolymer networks that are highly hydrated and provide a supportive, wet environment conducive to cell growth, migration, and differentiation. They are especially useful in applications involving wound healing, cartilage, bone, and soft tissue regeneration. Natural biopolyme

A biopolymer was synthesized using starch, cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), and the commercial fertilizer diammonium phosphate (DAP). The biopolymer and its constituents were characterized using SEM, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS), and thermal analysis by TGA and DSC. The results showed that fertilizer particles could be encapsulated by the starch and CNSL matrix. Functional groups and ions in the biopolymer showed characteristic bands associated with starch, CNSL, and DAP fertilizer. Moreover, the biopolymer diff

Abstract:

Nowadays, proteins and polysaccharides play a fundamental role in the manufacturing of biocompatible materials applied in food packaging. The resulting films have, however, limits associated with the resistance to mechanical stress; therefore, it is important to reinforce the initial mixture with additives that promote the development of stronger molecular links. Carbon dots (CDs) are excellent candidates for this purpose due to the presence of surface functional groups that determine the formation of numerous intramolecular bonds between the charged biopolymers.

Biomimetic nanocomposite systems have emerged as polymeric scaffolds that utilize cooperative relationships to enhance physiochemical properties for the next generation of biosensors. These composite systems can be synthesized from biopolymers such as cellulose to manipulate the highly ordered, three-dimensional network and natural properties to create a tunable pore structure for “micro-reactor” functionality. Thus, it is vital to understand the fundamental mechanistic interactions between the biopolymer system and the functional additives incorporated within the matrix. This work focuses on

Different treatments have been proposed for morphofunctional bone repair; however, they are not always efficient and have limitations.

Thus, the objective was to evaluate the effect of PBM in the repair of a long bone (tibia) of rats filled with biomimetic collagen matrices with nanohydroxyapatite and heterologous fibrin biopolymer (FB).
