The use of amaranth starch granules and nanocrystals as possible reinforcement of amaranth 17 proteins films was analyzed. Starch granules and protein isolates were extracted of amaranth 18 grain, and nanocrystals were p...

Thermodynamic studies on phase transformation of biopolymers in solution are useful to understand their nature and to evaluate their technological potentials. Thermodynamic studies should be conducted avoiding time-relat...

In the last three years, 2 billion tonnes of untreated and dismissed agricultural wastes have been accumulated without adequate management of reuse or final disposal, resulting in dumping or burning. The circular economy...

In response to societal demands, the food industry constantly seeks innovations for its products. Active food packaging, developed from biopolymers incorporated with Pickering emulsions, is certainly one of these innovat...

Residues discarded at cherry fruit harvesting were extracted with ethanol from ‘Chelan’, ‘Brooks’ and ‘Sunburst’ varieties to obtain cherry fibers constituted by the cell wall polysaccharides, applicable as f...

Films based on biopolymers and loaded with antimicrobial agents are convenient pharmaceutical dosage forms for topical application. Inorganic carriers loaded with these agents lead to composite materials, which combined ...

Background: This study developed and systematically optimized an ion-pair hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (IP-HILIC) system for oligonucleotide medicine analysis, aiming to the issues of insufficient resolu...

Batter is a semiliquid mixture made up of flour, water, and other ingredients composed of biopolymers such as carbohydrates, proteins, fibers, and lipids and is used to make cake, muffins, and crepes or to coat certain f...

Layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly microencapsulation is a promising method to protect and deliver probiotics, although its implementation has mostly been confined to the lab scale. This study develops a scalable method ...

Several strategies to improve the interfacial properties and foaming properties of proteins may be developed; among them, the use of mixtures of biopolymers that exhibit synergistic interactions. The aim of the present w...

Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron establecer la utilidad del quitosano de producción chilena como un excipiente adecuado para producir matrices hidrofílicas de liberación prolongada, y comparar dos sistemas de matr...

El objetivo de este trabajo es señalar las propiedades más importantes de la metilcelulosa (MC) y explicar de qué manera éstas son determinadas por sus características físicas y químicas. Además, se discuten algu...

Exopolysaccharides (EPS) are high molecular weight biopolymers produced by a wide range of microorganisms, including lactic acid bacteria (LAB). These polymers can be secreted to the external environment (slime EPS) or a...
