Phyllantus amarus and P. muellerianus are herbs reported to possess anti-inflammatory activity. Antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of alginate-based microsphere loaded with extracts of P. amarus and P. muellerianus was here reported. The extract-loaded microspheres were prepared using the ionotropic gelation method. The particle size, swelling index, entrapment efficiency, and FTIR spectroscopy were determined. Antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of extract-loaded microspheres were evaluated in hotplate-induced nociception in mice and carrageenan-induced rat paw oedema, respectively. The physicohemical results showed rigid, free-flowing and spherical microspheres, with particle sizes ranging from 985.977±13.65 to 1232±12.99 µm and entrapment efficiencies of 20.9 ± 0.341 to 45.0 ± 0.002 %. Polymer-drug interaction revealed bands indicating aromatics, alcohols and alkenes. The extract-loaded microspheres showed improved antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities when compared to the extracts alone. The sodium alginate-based microspheres loaded with Phyllanthus amarus and Phyllanthus muellerianus extracts showed acceptable physicochemical properties and had improved antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activity compared to the extracts alone.

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd) has gained popularity as a plant-based protein source due to its high protein content and complete amino acid profile. However, protein extraction methods such as alkaline solubilization coupled to isoelectric precipitation (ASIP), can affect protein structure, digestibility, nutritional quality, and the composition of antinutritional factors. This study aimed to assess the effects of ASIP on the secondary structure, protein quality and antinutritional factors (ANFs) composition from three quinoa varieties. The results showed that quinoa protein isolates exhibited a decrease in random coil structures, while β-turns and β-sheets increased, as indicated by FTIR analysis. In vitro protein digestibility improved after protein extraction, ranging from 82.12% to 84.50%. The amino acid score ranged from 0.67 – 0.88, with Yellow quinoa protein concentrate exhibiting the highest value. Black quinoa protein isolate showed the lowest total oxalate content (105.00 mg/100g), while Red quinoa protein concentrate presented higher levels of phytic acid (2.0 g/100 g), saponins (150.0 mg/g), and total phenolic compounds (161.5 mg GAE/100g). Notably, gluten content decreased in all samples following protein extraction. Despite the presence of certain ANFs in quinoa protein isolates/concentrates, the protein quality of quinoa isolates and concentrates was not adversely affected. In conclusion, the extraction process reduced several ANFs, including lectins, oxalates, and gluten, while enhancing the overall protein quality.

Vortioxetine (VTX) is a new atypical antidepressant used to treat major depression and other mental disorders. Due to its low water solubility, oral absorption, and fast metabolism, VTX has been commercially manufactured and sold as a hydrobromide. Long-term VTX hydrobromide therapy is frequently associated with respiratory irritation and digestive dysfunction. Two techniques were developed for dissolution, swelling, adherence, and penetration enhancements. The techniques were the VTX and casein (CAS) complexation using the maximum loading capacity, and VTX-polymeric nano micelle using the “Sandwich Technique”. This study includes the maximum VTX-CAS binding capacity determination, VTX-CAS complex preparation, polymeric nano micelle encapsulating VTX-CAS complex optimizations, physiochemical characterisations, solubility assessment, VTX release analysis, swelling analysis and mucus-penetrating study of the VTX-CAS complex and VTX polymeric nano micelle in comparison to the VTX raw material. The optimum VTX-polymeric nano micelle dissolution, swelling, adherence, and penetration enhancements were supported by the results of 91.10±16.34 nm, +19 mV zeta-potential, structural arrangements, and enhanced amorphic character with the morphology and size distribution (50–100 nm). The VTX-polymeric nano micelle could serve as an oral alternative to the VTX hydrobromide therapy based on the results of the biocompatibility and in vivo absorption studies for the VTX-polymeric nano micellar system.

In this study, the nutraceutical properties of ethanolic extract of Hyeronima macrocarpa fruits, immobilized on nanocellulose-based aerogels (NCAG) synthesized from the seeds were studied. Specifically, bioactives with antioxidant properties of the pulp were determined, NCAG and homologs of acetate (NCAG-A) and sulfate (NCAG-S) were obtained, and characterized from the seed, the aerogels loaded with antioxidants were studied to determine the anti-radical activity, digestion patterns, protein oxidation inhibition, and toxicological properties. The berries presented a high anthocyanin content of 1317.4 mg C3G/100 g FW and ORAC value of 12,732 µmol Trolox/100 g FW, which make an important source of antioxidants. The seeds presented cellulose content of 61.4 % with a NC yield of 38.4 %. NCAG and their surface homologs were successfully synthesized and characterized by FTIR, DLS, and TEM finding the characteristic bands of the main functional groups, NC presented particle sizes ranging from 64 to 141 nm, BET analysis showed surface areas of 71.1, 102.3, and 183.5 m2/g for NCAG-A, NCAG, and NCAG-S, respectively, and pore sizes of 36–38 nm called mesopores. NCAG presented the highest capacity to trap reactive oxygen species (106.8 mg catechin Eq./g., 86.5 % OH• trapped, respectively). All samples showed the capacity to delay the oxidation of a protein system in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50 values of 70 mg/L (NCAG), 176.3 mg/L (NCAG-A), and 255.6 mg/L (NCAG-S). In vitro digestion showed that NCAG-S was more efficient in delivering anthocyanins under gastric conditions (bioaccessibility of 59.3 %), and NCAG under duodenal conditions (bioaccessibility of 88.2 %). The differences found in samples for the different functional assays can be explained by the various types of interactions generated between the antioxidant molecules and aerogels, in the various media where the analyses are carried out. The results indicate nanocellulose-based aerogels, synthesized from lignocellulosic residues of H. macrocarpa seeds, proved to be porous matrices capable of carrying bioactive substances, and presented interesting properties for the delivery and conservation of antioxidant molecules such as anthocyanins and other polyphenols, achieving an in vitro protective effect against the oxidation of biomolecules.

Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium ‘Chachi’ (Citrus reticulata ‘Chachi’) is a traditional Chinese medicine with dual medicinal and dietary uses. As its main component, pectin exhibited various biological activities. However, research and development on it, especially pectin oligosaccharides, remain limited. In this study, ‘Chachi’ pectin oligosaccharides (CPOS) was extracted and prepared for the first time, resulting in the purification of two oligosaccharide components, CPOS3 and CPOS4. Structural characterization of the predominant oligosaccharide, CPOS3, revealed it to be composed of a backbone α-D-GalpA-(1→2)-α-L-Rhap-(1→4)-α-D-3-OAc-GalpA-(1→4)-α-D-GalpA-(1→4)-α-D-GalpA and a side chain [→5)-α-L-Araf-(1→]4 attached at the C-4 of Rhap. Subsequent experiments have shown that CPOS3 can significantly promote the proliferation and migration of human immortalized keratinocyte cell. Further investigation revealed that it facilitated cell proliferation by stimulating DNA synthesis in the S phase of the cell cycle. Additionally, CPOS3 exhibited good thermal stability and rheological characteristics. Based on the good wound healing activity and favorable physicochemical properties of CPOS3, its prospects in the fields of wound dressings and tissue repair are promising.

This study aimed to assess the behaviour of phenolic compounds from yarrow extract encapsulated in nanoemulsions during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. Oil-in-water nanoemulsions were developed using grape seed oil and lupin protein (LPI) as oil phase and emulsifier, respectively. The use of 6 % LPI including 1 mg/mL of yarrow extract resulted in nanoemulsions with a homogeneous particle size distribution (200 nm) and an encapsulation efficiency of 85.6 %. During in vitro gastrointestinal digestion, most of the phenolics remained encapsulated, being protected from degradation. The in vitro bioavailability of the encapsulated phenolics was measured using a cell co-culture model (Caco-2/HT-29MTX). In this regard, nanoemulsions did not increase the bioavailability of yarrow phenolics, instead, they promoted their access to the colon. Finally, the antiproliferative activity was determined in Caco-2 cells, observing that the apical fraction inhibited cancer cells, indicating the bioefficacy of the non-absorbed phenolics. Thus, this study underscores the potential of LPI-stabilized nanoemulsions as a vehicle for protecting and delivering yarrow phenolics to the colon.

In this study, mulberry leaf (ML) extract, along with ML processed by hot melt extrusion (HME) (HML), and ML processed by HME with biopolymer (HMLE), were utilized for the eco-friendly synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The physicochemical properties of AgNPs synthesized from ML, HML, and HMLE extracts were characterized using UV–Vis spectrophotometry, zeta potential analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). HME processing enhanced the active ingredients in the ML extract and increased the reduction efficiency of Ag ions. In the ABTS radical scavenging activity assay, AgNPs synthesized from HMLE (F3) exhibited the highest antioxidant activity with the lowest IC50 value. F3 also demonstrated the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. In the disk diffusion test, F3 showed the largest zone of inhibition, indicating the highest antimicrobial activity. In the anti-inflammatory assay using albumin inhibition, F3 achieved the highest inhibition rate, followed by the HMLE extract. In contrast, the extract group exhibited no activity in the antidiabetic test, while the AgNPs group showed the highest antidiabetic activity in F3. Additionally, F3 demonstrated the most potent anticancer activity against breast cancer cells, resulting in the lowest cell viability. Overall, this study suggests that AgNPs synthesized using ML extract enhanced via HME processing exhibit superior physiological activities compared to those synthesized using unprocessed ML extract.

The study aimed to develop a silkworm pupae protein-based film for enhancing the lipid oxidative and microbial stability of cheddar cheese. The bioactive properties were imparted to the silkworm pupae protein-based film using an optimum level (2.0%) of Catharanthus roseus leaf extract-based nanoparticles (Cat-Ros-NPs) synthesised following a green method. The cheese samples were packaged within the treated film (T2, containing 2.0% Cat-Ros-NPs) and compared with control samples [control (cheese samples without any film), T0 (cheese samples within the films without any bioactive agent) and T1 {cheese samples within the films containing 2.0% C. roseus leaf extract (Cat-Ros-Ext)}] during 90 days trial (4±1 °C). The addition of bioactive agents (Cat-Ros-Ext or Cat-Ros-NPs) increased the thickness (µm) as well as density (g/ml) of the film, thereby decreasing the transmittance (%), solubility (%), moisture content (%), and water-vapour transmission rate (mg/mt2). Both the bioactive agents increased the redness (a*) and yellowness (b*) whereas decreased the brightness (L*) of the film. The films enhanced the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of the enclosed cheese samples during storage and the highest values were recorded for the samples packed within T2 films. The cheese samples packaged within T2 and T1 films showed significantly lower values for lipid oxidation and microbial counts. This positive effect of the films (T2 and T1) was also recorded on protein oxidation (total-carbonyl content) after day 30 and sensory quality after day 60. Our results indicate the successful use of silkworm pupae protein for the development of bioactive packaging for cheddar cheese.

This study aims to use hot aqueous extract of herbal residue (HRE) to enhance bacterial growth and possess anti-diarrheal effects. In this study, lactobacillus species L. brevis (SAM-1), Lactobacillus plantarum (SAM-2), and Lactobacillus herbinensis (SAM-3) were isolated from date palm sap (collected in winter season). Square Pharmaceuticals PLC, Bangladesh provided herbal residues ‘Adovas’ which is non-sedating herbal cough syrup with sixteen common herbs including Adhatoda vasica. In our observation, HRE increased the number of colonies in MRS media. In the anti-diarrheal study by castor oil and magnesium sulphate-induced diarrheal mouse model, SAM-1 and 2 with or without HRE showed almost similar results. After initial morphological characterization, tests such as resistance to low pH, bile salt and survival capability in gastric simulated fluid (GSF) were performed to confirm them as a probiotic candidate. All three isolates were gram-positive bacteria and could grow in a mesophilic range of temperatures. The isolates were catalase-negative and were able to coagulate milk after overnight incubation. As the isolates exhibited resistance to low pH and could tolerate bile salts, they may survive in the stomach and intestine, thus making them a promising probiotic candidate. The isolated probiotics and HRE inhibited diarrheal and restored the body's electrolytes. Interestingly, SAM-2 showed higher efficacy than the standard drug (Loperamide), while SAM-1 showed a similar effect and SAM-3, had less effect than Loperamide. The findings suggest that probiotics and herbal residue could contribute to diarrhoeal disease prevention, which might be an alternative to a synthetic standard drug (Loperamide).

Edible film and coating are nutritious and beneficial for the host as those are consumed with food. Among various edible films and coatings, this review focused on protein-based films and coatings due to their potential application as a carrier for bioactive compounds in the food and biomedical industries. Bioactive compounds such as probiotics, prebiotics, and phenolic compounds have shown promise in maintaining intestinal health. They enhance immune response, lower inflammation in gastrointestinal illnesses, and help to prevent colon cancer. However, these bioactive compounds are often susceptible to environmental factors such as temperature, oxygen, pH etc. Consequently, encapsulation of these compounds becomes essential to protect them from potential damage and ensure the delivery of these compounds into the host body while retaining their intended functional properties. Current trends involve incorporating phenolic compounds into films or encapsulating probiotics and prebiotics as core materials using different wall materials. These encapsulated compounds can be intake with the food. Ongoing research endeavors are dedicated to improve the mechanical properties or functional properties of edible films and coatings separately. This review aims to overcome existing limitations of encapsulation of bioactive compounds into various types of protein film and enhance the functionality and health benefits and unlock the application of protein-based edible films and coating in the food industry.
