The influence of ultrasonic processing parameters including reaction temperature (60, 70
and 80° C), time (0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 min) and amplitude (70, 85 and 100%) on the …

In agriculture, hydrogels can be addressed for effective operation of water and controlled-
release fertilizers. Hydrogels have a significant ability for retaining water and improving …

The current study aimed to assess the impact of chitosan coating (0.005 g/mL) combined
with thermal treatment (85° C for 30 min) on tenderness, lipid and protein oxidation, bacterial …

We report a novel cross-linked chitosan composite film containing vanillin, glycerol, and
green tea extract. The effects of vanillin-mediated cross-linking and the incorporation of …

Sauropus androgynus extract (SAE) was incorporated with chitosan to produce solution
casting film (SAE-SCF) and supercritical impregnation film (SAE-SIF). The physicochemical …

The aims of this study were to obtain chitooligosaccharides (COS) from chitosan (CH) with
improved functional properties and comparison of the use of two different enzymes …

Although wastewater disposal in evaporation ponds may be a cost-effective strategy for
wastewater management, it overlooks water recycling and can possibly pose significant …

Application of wound dressings loaded with antimicrobial agents is considered a viable
option to reduce wound bacterial colonization and prevent infection, in order to improve the …

Growing concerns over the human health and environmental impacts of conventional
fungicides, coupled with the escalating challenge of microbial resistance, have fueled the …

Oxidized sucrose (OS) reacts with amino-group-containing polysaccharides, including
chitosan, without catalyst, resulting in hydrogels entirely composed of carbohydrates. The …
