Gel properties and interactions of hydrogels constructed with low acyl gellan gum and puerarin

Binary hydrogels constructed from lotus rhizome starch and different types of carrageenan for dysphagia management: Nonlinear rheological behaviors and structural characteristics

“…1 ). Similarly, studies on scallop gonads hydrolysates-based and gellan gum/puerarin hydrogels have shown that the increase in immobilized water and viscoelasticity were both the results of network structure development ( Xu et al, 2024 , Yan et al, 2023 ). In particular, LRS/ ι -C, exhibited not only a higher signal intensity for immobilized water but also the lowest signal intensity for free water, which corresponded to the T 2 curves and might be attributed to the structural characteristics of the binary hydrogels.…”

Gellan Gum as a Unique Microbial Polysaccharide: Its Characteristics, Synthesis, and Current Application Trends

“…This characteristic is especially valuable in scenarios where in situ gelation is required, like injectable hydrogels for minimally invasive drug delivery or tissue engineering. [107,118,119] Ion-responsive systems GG can produce gels when exposed to certain ions, like calcium or potassium. This characteristic has been utilized in the creation of ion-responsive systems, which are designed to release drugs or bioactive agents in response to certain ions found in the body.…”
