Enrichment of enzymatically mineralized gellan gum hydrogels with phlorotannin-richEcklonia cavaextract Seanol®to endow antibacterial properties and promote mineralization

Abstract: Hydrogels offer several advantages as biomaterials for bone regeneration, including ease of incorporation of soluble substances such as mineralization-promoting enzymes and antibacterial agents. Mineralization with calcium phosphate (CaP) increases bioactivity, while antibacterial activity reduces the risk of infection. Here, gellan gum (GG) hydrogels were enriched with alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and/or Seanol(®), a seaweed extract rich in phlorotannins (brown algae-derived polyphenols), to induce mineralizati… Show more

“…Our results appear to also support a previously reported interaction between ALP and polyphenols from the seaweed-derived nutritional supplement, Seanol ® [Douglas et al, 2016]. Here, a similar concentration of polyphenols was used in supplements, which were shown to have reduced release rates during ALP-mediated mineralization.…”

“…Generally speaking, values decreased in the order A ≈ B > C > D > E > > GG. It is known from previous work that the values for unmineralized GG samples range between approximately 0% and 2% (Douglas, Dokupil, et al, ). As expected, these values are considerably lower than those for mineralized samples.…”

“…When included in gellan gum hydrogels in the presence of alkaline phosphatase, seanol, a seaweed extract rich in phlorotannins, induced mineralization with calcium phosphate uptake and produced an antibacterial activity [178]. Alginate-lignin aerogels that proved non-cytotoxic and with good cell adhesion properties are also attractive candidates for applications in this field [179].…”
