This study has investigated the influence of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) with partially acetylated surfaces on the formation, stability, rheology and biodegradability of the Pickering emulsion in a crude oil/water (co/w) system. In all investigated systems, it was observed that the CNC concentrations of 7 mg/mL led to the emulsions showing stability over time. It was also noticed that the increase in concentration of background electrolyte (NaCl) leds to the droplets of emulsions becoming smaller. It was demonstrated that the rheology of the o/w emulsions of the oil products and crude oil stabilized by CNCs depends, to a large extent, on the colloid chemical properties of nanocellulose particles. Calculations and experimental methods were used to study the changes in the acid–base properties of CNCs on the surface of emulsion droplets, depending on a type of hydrophobic components (crude oil and liquid paraffin). The formation of Pickering emulsions leads to the oxidation of oil by Rhodococcus egvi in aerobic conditions becoming more effective, provided that the environment includes mineral salts of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. The results obtained present a scientific basis for the development of technologies for the disposal of oil spills on water surfaces.
本研究研究了表面部分乙酰化的纤维素纳米晶(cnc)对原油/水(co/w)体系中Pickering乳状液形成、稳定性、流变性和可生物降解性的影响。在所有研究的体系中,观察到CNC浓度为7 mg/mL导致乳液随着时间的推移表现出稳定性。本底电解质(NaCl)浓度的增加导致乳状液液滴变小。结果表明,纳米纤维素颗粒的胶体化学性质在很大程度上决定了石油产品和原油的油/水乳液的流变性。采用计算和实验方法研究了不同疏水组分(原油和液体石蜡)对乳液液滴表面cnc酸碱性质的影响。皮克林乳状物的形成导致在有氧条件下卵黄红球菌对油的氧化变得更加有效,前提是环境中含有氮、钾和磷的矿物盐。所得结果为开发水面溢油处理技术提供了科学依据。

Within the domain of starch modification, the study delved into cationization of wheat starch through a laboratory-scale twin-screw extruder, exploring various processing conditions. Cationic starch, a crucial component for enhancing paper attributes like dry strength and printability, took center stage. The focus shifted towards integration into papermaking, investigating the transformative potential of reactive extrusion. By contrasting it with conventional dry-process methodology, innovative strides were unveiled. The study extended to pilot-scale extrusion, bridging the gap between laboratory experimentation and potential industrial implementation. Infused with scientific rigor, the investigation navigated the benefits brought about by reactive extrusion. Empirical insights highlighted a significant reduction in the intrinsic viscosity of extruded starch, decreasing from 170 mL·g−1 (native starch) to 100 mL·g−1 at a specific mechanical energy (SME) input of 800 kWh·t−1, demonstrating remarkable stability despite increased mechanical treatment. Moreover, beyond the critical threshold of 220 kWh·t−1, retention efficiency reached a stable plateau at 78%. The study revealed that utilizing a larger extruder slightly improved the mechanical properties of the paper, emphasizing the advantage of scaling up the production process and the consistency of results across different extruder sizes.
在淀粉改性领域,本研究通过实验室规模的双螺杆挤出机对小麦淀粉的阳离子化进行了深入研究,探索了不同的加工条件。阳离子淀粉是增强纸的干强度和可印刷性等特性的关键成分。重点转移到整合到造纸,调查反应挤出的变革潜力。通过与传统干法方法的对比,揭示了创新的进步。这项研究扩展到中试规模的挤压,弥合了实验室实验和潜在工业实施之间的差距。注入科学的严谨,调查导航的好处,反应挤出带来的。在800 kWh·t−1的特定机械能(SME)输入下,挤出淀粉的特性粘度从170 mL·g−1(天然淀粉)降低到100 mL·g−1,尽管增加了机械处理,但仍表现出显著的稳定性。此外,超过220 kWh·t−1的临界阈值后,保持效率稳定在78%。研究表明,使用较大的挤出机略微改善了纸张的机械性能,强调了扩大生产过程的优势以及不同挤出机尺寸结果的一致性。

The use of natural polymers has increased due to concern about environmental pollution caused by plastics and emerging pollutants from fossil fuels. In this context, polysaccharides from macroalgae and microalgae arise as natural and abundant resources for various biological, biomedical, and food applications. Different nanomaterials are produced from these polysaccharides to act as effective carriers in the food and pharmaceutical industry: drug and nutrient carriers, active compound encapsulation, and delivery of therapeutic agents to tumor tissues. Polysaccharides-based nanomaterials applied as functional ingredients incorporated into foods can improve texture properties and decrease the caloric density of food products. These nanostructures also present the potential for developing food packaging with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. In addition, polysaccharides-based nanomaterials are biocompatible, biodegradable, and safe for medical practices to prevent and manage various chronic diseases, such as diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. In this sense, this review article addresses the use of algal polysaccharides for manufacturing nanomaterials and their potential applications in food and biomedical areas. In addition, the paper discusses the general aspects of algae as a source of polysaccharides, the nanomaterials produced from these polymers, as well as recent studies and the potential use of algal polysaccharides for industries.
由于担心塑料造成的环境污染和化石燃料产生的新污染物,天然聚合物的使用有所增加。在这种背景下,巨藻和微藻中的多糖作为一种天然而丰富的资源,在生物、生物医学和食品领域有着广泛的应用。从这些多糖中产生不同的纳米材料,在食品和制药工业中充当有效的载体:药物和营养载体,活性化合物包封,以及向肿瘤组织递送治疗剂。以多糖为基础的纳米材料作为功能性成分掺入食品中,可以改善食品的质地,降低食品的热量密度。这些纳米结构也为开发具有抗氧化和抗菌性能的食品包装提供了潜力。此外,多糖基纳米材料具有生物相容性、可生物降解性和安全性,可用于医疗实践,以预防和管理各种慢性疾病,如糖尿病、肥胖和心血管疾病。从这个意义上讲,本文综述了藻类多糖在制造纳米材料中的应用及其在食品和生物医学领域的潜在应用。此外,本文还讨论了藻类作为多糖来源的一般情况,由这些聚合物生产的纳米材料,以及最近的研究和藻类多糖在工业上的潜在用途。

Arabinoxylans (AXs) extracted from distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGSs) were treated with amylase, amyloglucosidase, and protease, to evaluate their effect on the polysaccharide capability to form covalent electro-sprayed nanoparticles. Enzymatically treated arabinoxylans (AXPPs) presented a significant decrease in protein content and molecular weight (31 and 37%, respectively), while the ferulic acid content and the arabinose-to-xylose ratio (A/X) were not statistically modified. The Fourier transform infrared spectra of the AXPPs showed a diminution in the intensity of amide I and amide II bands concerning AXs. The AXPP gels (1% w/v) induced via laccase registered a slight increase in the dimers of ferulic acid cross-linking content (9%) and the G’ value (27%) about the AX gels. The electro-sprayed nanoparticles of AXs and AXPPs (NAXs and NAXPPs, respectively) revealed a spherical and regular morphology via transmission electron microscopy. The nanoparticle diameter was not different for the NAXs and NAXPPs, while the NAXPPs show a significant reduction in Z potential value compared to NAXs. Confocal laser microscopy observations were conducted, to analyze the protein content in the AX network, and a decrease in illuminated areas was observed in the AXPP gels and the NAXPPs. These results indicate that the enzymatical treatment of an AX improves the polysaccharide gelling capability, but does not influence the fabrication of electro-sprayed covalent nanoparticles. NAXs and NAXPPs could be attractive biomaterials for diverse pharmaceutical and biomedical applications.
采用淀粉酶、淀粉葡萄糖苷酶和蛋白酶对从酒糟干颗粒中提取的阿拉伯木聚糖(AXs)进行处理,以评价其对形成共价电喷雾纳米粒子的多糖能力的影响。经酶处理的阿拉伯木聚糖(AXPPs)蛋白质含量和分子量显著降低(分别为31%和37%),而阿维酸含量和阿拉伯糖/木糖比(a /X)无统计学变化。axp的傅里叶变换红外光谱显示,与axp相关的酰胺I和酰胺II波段强度减弱。漆酶诱导的AXPP凝胶(1% w/v)的阿威酸交联二聚体含量(9%)和G′值(27%)略有增加。电喷涂后的AXs和AXPPs纳米粒子(分别为NAXs和NAXPPs)在透射电镜下呈现球形和规则的形貌。naaxs和NAXPPs的纳米颗粒直径没有差异,但与naaxs相比,NAXPPs的Z电位值明显降低。通过激光共聚焦显微镜观察,分析了AX网络中的蛋白质含量,观察到AXPP凝胶和naxpp的照射区域减少。这些结果表明,酶处理AX提高了多糖的凝胶化能力,但不影响电喷涂共价纳米颗粒的制备。NAXs和naxp可能是有吸引力的生物材料,用于各种制药和生物医学应用。

The aim of this work was to investigate the physico-chemical and biological properties of cyclodextrin-based polymers by the example of interaction with human serum albumin, erythrocytes, and bacteria to understand the prospects of their application as drug delivery systems. We synthesized polymers based on one of cyclodextrin derivatives with nonpolar (-CH3) or polar (-CH2CH(OH)CH3) substituents by crosslinking with 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate or succinic anhydride. The polymers form particles with an average size of ~200 nm in the aqueous solutions; their structures were confirmed by FTIR and 1H NMR. Cyclodextrin derivatives and their polymers did not affect the secondary structure content of human serum albumin, which might mean a mild effect on the structural and functional properties of the main blood plasma protein. Polymers extract drug molecules from albumin + drug complex by 8–10%, which was demonstrated using ibuprofen and bromophenol blue as model bioactive molecules for site I and site II in protein; thus, the nanoparticles might slightly change the drug’s pharmacokinetics. Using the hemolysis test, we found that polymers interact with red blood cells and can be assigned to non-hemolytic and slightly hemolytic groups as biocompatible materials, which are safe for in vivo use. The cyclodextrins and their polymers did not extract proteins from bacterial cell walls and did not demonstrate any antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains. Thus, the cyclodextrin-based polymers possess variable properties depending on the substituent in the monomer and linker type; demonstrated biocompatibility, biodegradability, and negligible toxicity that opens up prospects for their application in biomedicine and ecology.
本研究的目的是通过与人血清白蛋白、红细胞和细菌的相互作用来研究环糊精基聚合物的物理化学和生物学特性,以了解其作为药物传递系统的应用前景。以非极性(-CH3)或极性(-CH2CH(OH)CH3)取代基环糊精衍生物为基础,与1,6-六亚甲基二异氰酸酯或丁二酸酐交联,合成了聚合物。聚合物在水溶液中形成平均粒径为~200 nm的颗粒;结构经FTIR和1H NMR确证。环糊精衍生物及其聚合物不影响人血清白蛋白的二级结构含量,这可能意味着对血浆主蛋白的结构和功能特性的影响较轻。聚合物从白蛋白+药物复合物中提取药物分子的比例为8-10%,以布洛芬和溴酚蓝为模型生物活性分子对蛋白质的I和II位点进行了验证;因此,纳米颗粒可能会略微改变药物的药代动力学。通过溶血试验,我们发现聚合物与红细胞相互作用,可以作为生物相容性材料分配给非溶血和轻度溶血组,这在体内使用是安全的。环糊精及其聚合物不能从细菌细胞壁中提取蛋白质,对革兰氏阳性和革兰氏阴性菌株没有任何抗菌活性。因此,基于环糊精的聚合物具有取决于单体中的取代基和连接体类型的可变性质;具有良好的生物相容性、可生物降解性和可忽略毒性,在生物医学和生态学方面具有广阔的应用前景。

Providing safe drinking water free of heavy metal ions like iron and oxyanions like sulfate has become a worldwide issue. Starch, as one of the widely cheapest and available biomaterials, has demonstrated its capability to adsorb heavy metal ions from water in various scientific research, but in low adsorption rates. Therefore, this paper aims to prepare a biopolymer based on a starch–chitosan blend to raise the adsorption efficiency of starch. Two types of chitosan were used to modify potato starch (ps): low molecular chitosan (ch60) and high molecular chitosan (ch4000). Nano potato starch (n.ps) was prepared from potato starch and was also modified with both chitosans. The surface property, the morphology, the particle size, and the structure of the samples were analyzed. Moreover, the investigation of the samples by the zeta potential and charge density were evaluated to determine the charge of the adsorbents’ surface. Furthermore, the pseudo first order (PFO) and pseudo second order (PSO) were employed to examine the adsorption kinetic. The adsorption isotherms of Fe2+/3+ and SO42− were fitted employing Langmuir, Sips, and Dubinin-Radushkevich adsorption models. The maximum achieved sorption capacities from the FeSO4 solution for Fe2+/3+ were as follows: 115 mg/g for n.ps & ch4000, 90 mg/g for ps & ch4000, 80 mg/g for n.ps & ch60, and 61 mg/g for ps & ch60. Similarly, for SO42−, it was 192 mg/g for n.ps & ch4000, 155 mg/g for n.ps & ch60, 137 mg/g for ps & ch4000, and 97 mg/g for ps & ch60.
提供不含铁等重金属离子和硫酸盐等氧离子的安全饮用水已成为一个全球性问题。淀粉作为一种广泛使用的廉价生物材料,在各种科学研究中已经证明了其对水中重金属离子的吸附能力,但吸附率较低。因此,本文旨在制备一种以淀粉-壳聚糖共混物为基础的生物聚合物,以提高淀粉的吸附效率。采用低分子壳聚糖(ch60)和高分子壳聚糖(ch4000)两种壳聚糖对马铃薯淀粉进行改性。以马铃薯淀粉为原料制备了纳米马铃薯淀粉(n.ps),并对其进行壳聚糖改性。对样品的表面性能、形貌、粒度和结构进行了分析。此外,通过zeta电位和电荷密度对样品进行了研究,以确定吸附剂表面的电荷。此外,采用伪一阶(PFO)和伪二阶(PSO)表征了吸附动力学。采用Langmuir、Sips和Dubinin-Radushkevich吸附模型拟合了Fe2+/3+和SO42 -的吸附等温线。FeSO4溶液对Fe2+/3+的最大吸附量为:n.ps &为115 mg/g;Ch4000, 90 mg/g用于ps &Ch4000, 80mg /g用于n.p ps &Ch60和61 mg/g的ps &ch60。同样,对于SO42−,n.ps &Ch4000, 155 mg/g用于n.ps &Ch60, 137 mg/g的ps &Ch4000, ps &为97 mg/g;ch60。

pH Effects on the Conformations of Galacturonan in Solution: Conformational Transition and Loosening, Extension and Stiffness pH对水溶液中半乳糖酸构象的影响:构象转变与松动、延伸与刚性

Calorimetric (from both isothermal micro-calorimetry and DSC), chiro-optical, viscometric and rheological data on aqueous solutions of pectic acid and low-methoxyl pectin (LMP), published over decades from different laboratories, have been comparatively revisited. The aim was to arrive at a consistent and detailed description of the behavior of galacturonan as a function of pH, i.e., of the degree of charging (as degree of dissociation, α) of the polyanion. The previously hypothesized pH-induced transition from a 31 to a 21 helix was definitely confirmed, but it has been shown, for the first time, that the transition is always coupled with loosening/tightening effects brought about by an increase in charge. The latter property has a twofold effect: the former effect is a purely physical one (polyelectrolytic), which is always a loosening one. However, in the very low range of pH and before the beginning of the transition, an increase in charge tightens the 31 helix by strengthening an intramolecular—but inter-residue—hydrogen bond. The value of the enthalpy change of 31 → 21 transition—+0.59 kcal·mol−1—is bracketed by those provided by theoretical modeling, namely +0.3 and +0.8 kcal·mol−1; the corresponding entropy value is also positive: +1.84 cal·mole r.u.−1·K−1. The enthalpic and the entropic changes in chain loosening amount only to about 23% of the corresponding 31 → 21 changes, respectively. Much like poly(galacturonic acid), the 31 conformation of LMP also stiffens on passing from pH = 2.5 to 3.0, to then start loosening and transforming into the 21 one on passing to pH = 4.0. Lowering the pH of a salt-free aqueous solution of LMP down to 1.6 brings about a substantial chain–chain association, which is at the root of the interchain junctions stabilizing the acid pH gels, in full agreement with the rheological results. A comparison of the enthalpic data reveals that, at 85 °C, LMP in acidic pH conditions has lost its initial order by about 2.3 times more than pectic acid brought from low charging to full neutralization (at α = 1.0) at 25 °C. A proper combination of experiments (enthalpic measurements) and theory (counterion condensation polyelectrolyte theory) succeeded in demonstrating, for the first time ever, a lyotropic/Hofmeister effect of the anion perchlorate in stabilizing the more disordered form of the 21 helix of galacturonan. The viscometric results in water showed that the 31 helix is capable of forming longer rheologically cooperative units compared with the 21 helix. Extrapolation to infinite ionic strength confirmed that, once all electrostatic interactions are cancelled, the elongation of the two helical forms is practically the same. At the same time, however, they indicated that the flexibility of the two-fold helix is more than fifteen times larger than that of the three-fold one. The result is nicely corroborated by a critical revisiting of 23Na relaxation experiments.
几十年来,不同实验室发表的关于果胶酸和低甲氧基果胶(LMP)水溶液的量热法(包括等温微量量热法和DSC)、手光学、粘度学和流变性的数据被相对地重新审视了。目的是达到一致和详细的描述半乳糖酸的行为作为一个函数的pH值,即,充电的程度(作为解离程度,α)的聚阴离子。先前假设的由ph诱导的从31螺旋到21螺旋的转变得到了明确的证实,但它首次表明,这种转变总是伴随着电荷增加带来的松动/拧紧效应。后一种性质有双重作用:前一种作用是纯物理的(聚电解的),它总是一种松动的。然而,在非常低的pH范围内,在转变开始之前,电荷的增加通过加强分子内但残基间的氢键来收紧31螺旋。31→21跃迁的焓变- +0.59 kcal·mol−1用理论模型提供的值(+0.3和+0.8 kcal·mol−1)表示;对应的熵值也是正的:+1.84 cal·mol r.u.−1·K−1。链松动的焓变和熵变分别只占31→21变化的23%左右。就像聚半乳糖醛酸一样,LMP的31构象在pH = 2.5到3.0时也会变硬,然后在pH = 4.0时开始松动并转变为21构象。将LMP无盐水溶液的pH值降低到1.6,会产生大量的链链结合,这是链间连接稳定酸性pH凝胶的根本原因,与流变学结果完全一致。对焓值的比较表明,在85°C时,酸性pH条件下的LMP比在25°C时从低充电到完全中和(α = 1.0)的果胶酸损失了2.3倍的初始顺序。实验(焓测量)和理论(反离子凝聚聚电解质理论)的适当结合,有史以来第一次成功地证明了阴离子高氯酸盐的溶性/霍夫迈斯特效应在稳定更无序的21螺旋半乳糖酸结构中的作用。在水中的粘度测试结果表明,与21螺旋相比,31螺旋能够形成更长的流变合作单元。无限离子强度的外推证实,一旦所有静电相互作用被取消,两种螺旋形式的延伸率实际上是相同的。然而,与此同时,他们指出,双螺旋结构的灵活性是三螺旋结构的15倍以上。对23Na弛豫实验的重访很好地证实了这个结果。

Lactic acid is a molecule used abundantly in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. It is also the building block for polylactic acid, a biodegradable polymer which has gained interest over the last decade. Seaweeds are fast growing, environmentally friendly, and economically beneficial. The Rhodophyta, Kappaphycus alvarezii, is a carrageenan-rich alga, which can be successfully fermented into lactic acid using lactic acid bacteria. Lactobacillus pentosus is a versatile and robust bacterium and an efficient producer of lactic acid from many different raw materials. Bioreactor strategies for lactic acid fermentation of K. alvarezii hydrolysate were tested in 2-L stirred-tank bioreactor fermentations, operating at 37 °C, pH 6, and 150 rpm. Productivity and yields were 1.37 g/(L.h) and 1.17 g/g for the pulse fed-batch, and 1.10 g/(L.h) and 1.04 g/g for extended fed-batch systems. A 3.57 g/(L.h) production rate and a 1.37 g/g yield for batch fermentation operating with an inoculum size of 0.6 g/L was recorded. When applying fed-batch strategies, fermentation products reached 91 g/L with pulse feed and 133 g/L with constant continuous feed. For control and comparison, a simple batch of synthetic galactose-rich Man-Sharpe-Rugosa (MRS) media was fermented at the same conditions. A short study of charcoal regenerability is shown. A scheme for a third-generation lactic acid biorefinery is proposed, envisioning a future sustainable large-scale production of this important organic acid.

Polysaccharides as Economic and Sustainable Raw Materials for the Preparation of Adsorbents for Water Treatment 多糖作为制备水处理吸附剂的经济、可持续原料

Adsorption processes, due to their technical simplicity and cost-effectiveness, have arisen as one of the most well-known, straightforward solutions to water pollution. In this context, polysaccharides, due to their abundance, biodegradability, and biocompatibility, are appealing raw materials for the design of adsorbents. Moreover, some of them, such as chitosan, can be obtained from organic waste products, and their use additionally contributes to solving another concerning problem: organic waste accumulation. Unfortunately, due to their low adsorption capacities and/or physicochemical properties, native polysaccharides are not suitable for this purpose. However, there are alternatives that can overcome these physical or chemical limitations, often taking advantage of the versatility of their polyhydroxylated structure. In this context, this review aims to present an overview of the advances from 2019 onwards in the design of new adsorbents for water treatment from cellulose, alginate, chitosan, and starch, addressing the two main strategies reported in the literature: the preparation of either polysaccharide-based composites or polysaccharide derivatives. It is important to point out that, herein, special emphasis is placed on the relationship between the chemical structure and the efficiency as adsorbents of the analyzed materials, in an attempt to contribute to the rational design of adsorbents obtained from polysaccharides.
吸附法由于其技术简单和成本效益高,已成为解决水污染最著名、最直接的方法之一。在这种情况下,多糖由于其丰度、生物可降解性和生物相容性,是设计吸附剂的有吸引力的原料。此外,其中一些,如壳聚糖,可以从有机废物产品中获得,它们的使用还有助于解决另一个令人担忧的问题:有机废物堆积。不幸的是,由于其低吸附能力和/或物理化学性质,天然多糖不适合用于这一目的。然而,有替代方案可以克服这些物理或化学限制,通常利用其多羟基化结构的多功能性。在此背景下,本综述旨在概述自2019年以来,纤维素、海藻酸盐、壳聚糖和淀粉用于水处理的新型吸附剂的设计进展,并解决文献中报道的两种主要策略:制备多糖基复合材料或多糖衍生物。需要指出的是,本文特别强调所分析材料的化学结构与作为吸附剂的效率之间的关系,试图有助于从多糖中获得吸附剂的合理设计。

Effect of Amylopectin Content on Mechanical, Barrier and Thermal Properties of Plasticized Starch/Chitosan Films 支链淀粉含量对增塑型淀粉/壳聚糖薄膜力学、阻隔性和热性能的影响
Pub Date : 2023-07-24 DOI: 10.3390/polysaccharides4030015

Mechanical, barrier, and thermal properties of films based on blends of corn starch and chitosan plasticized with ethylene glycol, glycerol, and sorbitol were investigated. Starch amylopectin variation was explored, and contents of 100% and 73% were employed to blend with chitosan and polyols. The findings showed that high amylopectin content has a significant effect (p < 0.05), resulting in films with lower tensile strength (TS) and reduced water vapor permeability (WVP). On the other hand, the incorporation of polyols showed a significantly high (p < 0.05) elongation at break (EB) for films plasticized with glycerol and sorbitol at high amylopectin content. For chitosan/73% amylopectin film, the addition of plasticizers exhibited no significant difference (p < 0.05) among the samples for TS and WVP results. The amylopectin content played no influence in the degradation stability of the films measured by thermogravimetry (TGA). However, amylopectin content influences the endothermic peak temperature observed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. A reduction of about 15 °C was noticed for the film prepared with high amylopectin content, a behavior correlated to its amorphous structure, capable of retaining more water than a crystalline region.
研究了用乙二醇、甘油和山梨醇增塑玉米淀粉和壳聚糖共混物制备的薄膜的力学性能、阻隔性能和热性能。研究了淀粉支链淀粉的变化规律,分别以100%和73%的含量与壳聚糖和多元醇共混。结果表明,高支链淀粉含量对膜的拉伸强度(TS)和水蒸气渗透性(WVP)有显著影响(p < 0.05)。另一方面,在支链淀粉含量高的情况下,多元醇的掺入对甘油和山梨醇增塑膜的断裂伸长率(EB)有显著的提高(p < 0.05)。对于壳聚糖/73%支链淀粉薄膜,增塑剂的添加量对TS和WVP结果无显著影响(p < 0.05)。支链淀粉含量对热重法测定的膜降解稳定性无影响。然而,支链淀粉含量对示差扫描量热法(DSC)观察到的吸热峰温度有影响。高支链淀粉含量制备的薄膜降低了约15°C,这一行为与其无定形结构相关,能够比结晶区域保留更多的水。
