“…In addition, chitosan (CS), a natural biopolymer with excellent biocompatibility, has also been widely used in tissue repair and implant design. Critically, CS further serves as an ideal chelating agent for AgNPs and silver ions, allowing the sustainable release of silver ions from immobilized HA/AgNPs coated on an implant surface.…”

mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, despite the dramatic improvements in implant design and perioperative management over the past decades, implant-related infection and limited longevity remain challenges for surgeons and materials scientists. In the United States, 4.3% of orthopedic implants are reported as being infected, with the annual cost of implant-related infection being expected to exceed $1.62 billion by 2020. [1] Implant-related infection comprises a complex biological process including bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation, with the latter constituting the main cause of implant failure owing to the associated antibiotic resistance and immune evasion. [2] In addition, the osseointegration between host bone and implant represents another crucial factor for achieving the long-term survival time of implants. Moreover, rapid bone-implant osseointegration may allow host cells to occupy the implant surface earlier than bacteria, a key factor to prevent bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. [3] Therefore, an ideal implant for orthopedics and dentistry application should exhibit both anti-biofilm and osseointegration properties.Antibacterial and osteogenic design is required for ideal orthopedic implants. The excellent antimicrobial performance of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has attracted interest for the treatment of implant-related infections. However, the dose-dependent cytotoxicity of silver and its negative impact on bone implants restrict the further use of AgNPs coatings. Therefore, a hybrid coating containing polydopamine (PDA), hydroxyapatite (HA), AgNPs, and chitosan (CS) is prepared. Organic chelators CS and PDA that have promising biocompatibility are used to prevent the rapid release of silver ions from the AgNPs coating. The double chelating effect of PDA and CS significantly reduces silver ion release from the hybrid coating. The coating exhibits excellent anti-biofilm efficiency of 91.7%, 89.5%, and 92.0% for Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Escherichia coli, respectively. In addition, the coating can significantly stimulate osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells and promote bone-implant osseointegration in vivo as compared to that in the control group. The longitudinal biosafety of the coating is confirmed in vivo by histological evaluation and blood tests. The results of this study indicate that the hybrid coating exhibits antibacterial properties as well as allow bone-implant osseointegration, thereby providing insight into the design of multifunctional implants for long-term orthopedic applications.

Applications of chitosan in food, pharmaceuticals, medicine, cosmetics, agriculture, textiles, pulp and paper, biotechnology, and environmental chemistry

Chitosan is a biopolymer obtained from chitin, one of the most abundant and renewable materials on Earth. Chitin is a primary component of cell walls in fungi, the exoskeletons of arthropods such as crustaceans, e.g., crabs, lobsters and shrimps, and insects, the radulae of molluscs, cephalopod beaks, and the scales of fish and lissamphibians. The discovery of chitin in 1811 is attributed to Henri Braconnot while the history of chitosan dates back to 1859 with the work of Charles Rouget. The name of chitosan was, however, introduced in 1894 by Felix Hoppe-Seyler. Chitosan has attracted major scientific and industrial interests from the late 1970s due to its particular macromolecular structure, biocompatibility, biodegradability and other intrinsic functional properties. Chitosan and derivatives have practical applications in the food industry, agriculture, pharmacy, medicine, cosmetology, textile and paper industries, and in chemistry. In recent years, chitosan has also received much attention in dentistry, ophthalmology, biomedicine and bioimaging, hygiene and personal care, veterinary medicine, packaging industry, agrochemistry, aquaculture, functional textiles and cosmetotextiles, catalysis, chromatography, beverage industry, photography, wastewater treatment and sludge dewatering, and biotechnology. Nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals are actually growing markets, and therapeutic and biomedical products should be the next markets in the development of chitosan. Chitosan is also the object of numerous fundamental studies. In this review, we highlight a selection of works on chitosan applications published over the past two decades.

“…Chitosan, a partially deacetylated chitin (poly-β-(1→4)N-acetyl-d-glucosamine) is found in shrimp shells and fungi [9]. This polysaccharide has attracted attention as a biomedical material because of its biocompatibility and various biological activities, including immune-enhancing [10], anti-inflammatory [11], antibacterial [6], and antitumor activities [12].…”

Effects of Chitosan on Clostridium perfringens and Application in the Preservation of Pork Sausage

The effects of chitosan with 95% deacetylation degree (DD95) on the spore germination, cell proliferation, and heat resistance of Clostridium perfringens CCRC 10,648 and CCRC 13,019 were investigated, and its application on pork sausage with sodium nitrite reduction was also evaluated. DD95 chitosan can strongly reduce the heat resistance of both strains. The D80 and D100 values for strain CCRC 13,019 decreased from 40.98 and 4.64 min to 39.21 and 3.26 min, respectively, as a result of adding 250 ppm DD95; meanwhile, addition of chitosan decreased the D80 and D100 values for CCRC 10,648 from 41.15 and 6.46 min to 39.52 and 3.78 min, respectively. In pork sausage, addition of 3000 ppm DD95 chitosan considerably slowed down the bacterial proliferation and volatile basic nitrogen production. There were no significant differences in color (L* and b* values), shearing force, and hardness in the pork sausages with or without DD95 chitosan during storage at 4 and 25 °C. However, the addition of DD95 chitosan in pork sausage significantly retarded the decrease of the a* value. Therefore, DD95 chitosan could reduce the concentration of sodium nitrite required in pork sausages for color retention.
