Article Abstract

Pickering emulsion loading essential oil has demonstrated a promising strategy as delivery system in food preservation, but localization in stability and antimicrobial activity limits application. In this study, Pickering emulsions co-loaded with tannic acid and cinnamon essential oil (ZTC) have been developed based on zein and tannic acid complexes (ZT) mediated interfacial engineering. Fourier transform infrared, fluorescence spectroscopy, and molecular docking results indicated tannic acid altered the structural of zein. Interfacial tension results indicated that tannic acid accelerated the adsorbed speed of zein particles by decreased interfacial tension (11.99-9.96 mN/m). ZT5 formed a viscoelastic and dense layer in oil-water interface than that for other ZTs, which improved stability and control release performance of ZTC. Furthermore, the ZTC showed an effective antimicrobial activity against spoilage organisms Pseudomonad paralactis MN10 and Lactobacillus sakei VMR17. These findings provide new insight for developing co-loaded multiple antimicrobial agents within Pickering emulsion as a delivery system.

In this study, tannic acid (TA) was applied to remodel the structure of quercetin-loaded oat globulin fibrils (UF-Que), to form novel fibril-based composite hydrogels (UF-Que-TA) to encapsulate Que. The hydrogels were prepared by varying the [TA]/[UF] ratio to investigate the impact of TA on gelation behavior, microstructure, molecular interactions, and stability of Que. Physicochemical results indicated that the incorporation of TA significantly enhanced the gel strength and promoted non-covalent interactions including hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions, and ionic interactions.

Introduction: The white water lily (Nymphaea alba) is a traditional medicinal plant recognized for its diverse array of bioactive properties. However, its potential in wound healing remains largely unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the phytochemical profile, cytotoxicity, and wound healing efficacy of Nymphaea alba flower extract (NAFE) using both in vitro and in vivo models, as well as computational network analysis.

Indigenous Australians have long recognised and utilised the therapeutic potential of Australian native plants for generations to treat and manage various diseases. In recent years, these native plants have been explored in preclinical research for their chemical profiles and therapeutic properties for conditions such as skin disorders, colds and flu, various cancers, neurological disorders, metabolic syndrome, and other inflammatory conditions. Notable species studied include Kakadu plum, Davidson's plum, Burdekin plum, Illawarra plum, anise myrtle, lemon myrtle, lemon aspen, quandong, muntries, and Tasmanian pepperberry.

Wound healing is often hindered by bacterial infection, oxidative stress, and bleeding. Traditional dressings cannot simultaneously regulate multiple microenvironments. To address the shortcomings of traditional dressings, this study constructed a dual-network photothermal responsive multifunctional hydrogel OBCTCu based on four natural ingredients, including Bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP), chitosan (CS), tannic acid (TA), and Cu.

Conductive hydrogels have revolutionized wearable electronics due to their biocompatibility and tunable properties. However, it remains a great challenge for hydrogel-based sensors to maintain both conductivity and mechanical integrity in harsh environments. Synergistic dynamic interactions provide a promising strategy to address this issue.
