Evaluation of Microencapsulation of The UFV-AREG1 Bacteriophage in Alginate-Ca Microcapsules using Microfluidic Devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The indiscriminate use of antibiotics and the emergence of resistant microorganisms have become a major challenge for the food industry. The purpose of this work was to microencapsulate the bacteriophage UFV-AREG1 in a calcium alginate matrix using microfluidic devices and to study the viability and efficiency of retention. The microcapsules were added

The potential health benefits of seaweed and seaweed extract [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Edible seaweeds have historically been consumed by coastal populations across the globe. Today, seaweed is still part of the habitual diet in many Asian countries. Seaweed consumption also appears to be growing in popularity in Western cultures, due both

Biological activity of alginate and its effect on pancreatic lipase inhibition as a potential treatment for obesity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Alginates are classed as a dietary fibre and have been shown to inhibit digestive enzymes in vitro, and therefore could be used as an obesity treatment.

Biologically‐Inspired Melt Electrowriting for the Generation of Highly Biomimetic Functional Myocardium

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, melt electrowriting is used to fabricate a 3D printed scaffold design that generates engineered cardiac tissues with in‐plane contraction, mimicking natural myocardium. It is shown that these tissues display advanced maturation and functionality.

Alginate Materials and Dental Impression Technique: A Current State of the Art and Application to Dental Practice

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2018
Hydrocolloids were the first elastic materials to be used in the dental field. Elastic impression materials include reversible (agar-agar), irreversible (alginate) hydrocolloids and synthetic elastomers (polysulfides, polyethers, silicones).

Cell Membrane Vesicle Camouflaged Artificial Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial cells camouflaged with a cell membrane vesicle coating are able to assemble into synthetic aggregates that exhibit rudimentary communication capabilities. Additionally, when these artificial cells are equipped with antioxidant capabilities, they are able to protect the intracellular homeostasis in HepG2 cells present in semi‐synthetic ...

Composition of Aiginates from Brown Seaweeds, Sargassum and Padina spp. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The percentage yield of alginate in brown seaweeds, Sargassum and Padina spp., from Sabah, and the intrinsic viscosities of these alginates were determined. Young and mature Sargassum, respectively, gave 35% and 32%, while Pad ina only yielded 18.5% of
