Design Considerations for Polymer–Deep Eutectic Solvent Hybrid Systems for Transdermal Drug Delivery

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 40, October 20, 2026.
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) act as tunable, green excipients that modulate polymer structure–property relationships to enhance drug solubility, skin permeation, stability, and controlled release. Through hydrogen‐bond interactions, DES–polymer hybrid systems enable improved transdermal performance, offering a rational, design‐driven platform for ...

Single‐Step Production of Mannitol From Yacon Fructo‐Oligosaccharides Using Fructophilic Lactic Acid Bacteria

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
Mannitol is a sweetener with a low glycaemic index and calorific value that can be produced efficiently by bacterial transformation. We demonstrate its production by Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Fructobacillus fructophilus from a novel substrate, fructo‐oligosaccharides from the tuber yacon in a single‐step process that is amenable to scale‐up ...

Starch Selection in Sweet Food Systems: A Texture‐Driven Framework Across Confectionery and Dessert Matrices

Journal of Texture Studies, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Starch functions as a key hydrocolloid shaping texture and stability in the formulation engineering of sweet foods. Sugar‐starch hydration interactions control gelatinization and rheological behavior. Modified starches enhance tolerance to heat, shear, acidity, and low moisture, and starch‐hydrocolloid blends enable tailored textures and improved shelf
