Sustained-release antimicrobial gelatin film: Effect of chia mucilage on physicochemical and antimicrobial properties

Preparation and Physicochemical Characterization of Softgels Cross-Linked with Cactus Mucilage Extracted from Cladodes of Opuntia Ficus-Indica

“…This is in line with the fact that the mucilage is a high molecular weight polysaccharide with large quantity of –OH groups and a relatively small amount of -COOH groups, which easily facilitates hydrogen bonding interactions with the –NH- groups in gelatin [36]. Luo et al [36] have observed similar results in films formulated with G and chia mucilage.…”

“…For instance, the bands at 2921, 1630, 1547 and 1451 cm −1 in CC appeared red-shifted compared to those of CMC at 2928.99; 1632.62; 1548.48 and 1452.34 cm −1 , which is clearly evidence of the formation of intermolecular interactions between functional groups of CM with G, thus indicating crosslinking between these polymers [26]. This is in line with the fact that the mucilage is a high molecular weight polysaccharide with large quantity of –OH groups and a relatively small amount of -COOH groups, which easily facilitates hydrogen bonding interactions with the –NH- groups in gelatin [36]. Luo et al [36] have observed similar results in films formulated with G and chia mucilage.…”

“…The color parameters (L*, a *, b * and ΔE*) of the CMC and CC are shown in Table 1. The incorporation of CM decreased significantly ( p < 0.05) the lightness (L*) value of the soft capsule, most probably because of the dark color of the CM itself, thus affecting the clarity of the sample [36]. The ΔE* of CC and CMC increased significantly ( p < 0.05) from 12.25 ± 0.87 to 25.45 ± 1.79, respectively, due to the presence of mucilage in the composite capsule, leading to more blurred capsule [37].…”

Physicochemical, thermal, mechanical, optical, and barrier characterization of chia (Salvia hispanica L.) mucilage‐protein concentrate biodegradable films

“…On the other hand, Luo et al. () prepared films at different concentrations of CM and gelatin, found that WVP values decreased with the addition of CM. This discrepancy in the WVP results, in relation to this work, can be due to the variation in entanglement of CM with protein chains from different sources used.…”

Effect of gamma irradiation on physico‐mechanical and structural properties of basil seed mucilage‐chitosan films containingZiziphora clinopodioidesessential oil and MgO nanoparticles for rainbow trout packaging

“…The seeds were separated and then, obtained mucilage was filtered through a double layer cheesecloth, centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 20 min to remove any impurity, and finally dried in an oven at 45 ± 1°C for 12 hr. The dried, purified BSM was maintained in a dry place until required for further experiments (Luo et al., 2019).…”
