“…Thus, contact angle measurements have been widely used to monitor surface properties such as critical surface tension, free surface energy polar and dispersive Fig. 2 Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy of gelatin powder and chitosan membranes with and without gelatin and heparin components, surface acid-base interactions, surface crystallinity, the surface orientation of functional groups, roughness surface contamination and wettability [17,18].…”

With the rising in life expectancy and the consequent population aging, degenerative chronic diseases have been figured as the major cause of morbidity and mortality in the world. It is believed that the production of a polymeric matrix composed of chitosan and gelatin may be an alternative to obtain a carrier base of heparin, with the prospective objective of applying these materials as an alternative to the conventional therapeutic resources biomedical. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the interaction between chitosan, gelatin, and heparin demonstrating a satisfactory result by the methodologies that were applied, making the study hypothesis concrete., certifying the use of a methodology for including heparin in a biodegradable polymeric base. Thus, expanding the alternatives for possible alternatives to the conventional therapeutic resources of vascular diseases with the application of the developed materials.

“…There are two types of plasma; thermal (hot plasma) and non-thermal (cold plasma) plasmas (Mantham, 2006). Many researches apply cold plasma treatment in both solid and liquid foods (Chen et al, 2012;Chen, 2014;Bahrami et al, 2016;Halee et al, 2016;Kovacevic et al, 2016;Thirumdas et al, 2017;Dixit et al, 2018) due to its ability to improve surface of material and does not require chemicals. Thus after plasma, there is no environmental pollution expelled (Dobrin et al, 2013).…”

“…The loss of OH groups during the cross-linking of α-D-glucose is due to a collision of Ar especies with hydroxyl group. Ar plasma can change the surface topography and surface chemistry of powders (Dixit et al, 2018). Thirumdas (2015) reported that low temperature plasma treatment can be used to improve cooking quality of basmati rice.…”

Plasma surface modification processes account for most of the commercial uses of surface modification because they are fast, efficient methods for improving the adhesion, wettability properties and other surface characteristics of a variety of materials. This research was aimed to investigate of surface modification of pigmented rice by plasma technique. Two rice varieties namely Kum Doi Saket and Hom Nil rice were used. The samples were subjected to plasma treatment with different gas types to determine suitable gas type. The types of gas for plasma treatment were argon, nitrogen and air. The output voltage of the plasma was 0.1428 W at the frequency of 110 Hz and treatment time of 40 min. It was found that plasma treatment with various gas types on the samples caused a reduction in cooking time and increase in water uptake ratio, length expansion ratio and volume expansion ratio, an increase in water absorption, a decrease in contact angles as compared to untreated sample. These results were related to etching of the bran layer of the rice grain which allowed better water transfer into the grain during cooking. It was also found that plasma production using plasma gas had more effect on texture of the rice grains, as compared to without plasma treatment.
