[PMID: 38588840 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131444] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 03/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
Ramie bone (RB), an agricultural waste generated in the textile industry, is a vastly productive renewable natural resource with the potential to be used as a source of cellulose. In this study, ramie bone cellulose (RB-CE) was obtained in one step using a simple and ecologically friendly hydrogen peroxide-citric acid (HPCA) treatment procedure that avoided the use of halogenated reagents and strong acids while also streamlining the treatment processes. Various analytical methods were used to investigate the chemical composition and structure, crystallinity, morphology, thermal properties, surface area and hydration properties of cellulose separated at different treatment temperatures. HPCA successfully removed lignin and hemicellulose from RB, according to chemical composition analysis and FTIR. RB-CE had a type I cellulose crystal structure, and the crystallinity improved with increasing treatment temperature, reaching 72.51 % for RB-CE90. The RB-CE showed good thermal stability with degradation temperatures ranging from 294.2 °C to 319.1 °C. Furthermore, RB-CE had a high water/oil binding capacity, with RB-CE90 having WHC and OBC of 9.68 g/g and 7.24 g/g, respectively. The current work serves as a model for the environmentally friendly and convenient extraction of cellulose from biomass, and the cellulose obtained can be employed in the field of food and composite materials.

Abstract
Lophatherum gracile Brongn. (L. gracile) is a traditional herb for both medicine and food use, but its digestibility and hepato-protective activity is unknown. Herein we investigated the digestibility and hepato-protective potential of L. gracile leave extract (LGE) using in vitro digestion and alcohol-induced oxidative damage models. Compared to the undigested group, the content of phenolics/flavonoids and the antioxidant activity in LGE generally decreased by 9.30-19.97% in the oral and small intestine phase after digestion, while that increased by 9.96-10.17% in the gastric phase. The main phenolics/flavonoids showed promising stability during digestion and their bio-accessiblity ranged from 67.64% to 84.47%. By reducing cellular reactive oxidative species and malonaldehyde levels, LGE (0.23-0.45 mg/mL) pretreatment significantly ameliorated alcohol-induced oxidative damage in HepG2 cells (P < 0.05), and their survival rate increased from 59.23% to 67.76%. These findings suggested that L. gracile could be used for the development of hepato-protective foods.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide combined with acid treatment demonstrates its respective characteristics for the separation of lignocellulosic biomass. Herein, holocellulose was extracted from Cattail leaves (CL) by a two-step treatment with alkali and hydrogen peroxide-acetic acid (HPAA). Then carboxylated nanocellulose was hydrolyzed with a mixed organic/inorganic acid. The chemical composition of the holocellulose and the physicochemical properties of the separated carboxylated nanocellulose were comparable. Carboxyl groups were introduced on the nanocellulose as a result of the esterification process with citric acid (CA), which endows the nanocellulose with high thermal stability (315-318 °C) and good light transmission (>80 %). Furthermore, morphological analyses revealed that nanocellulose had a spider-web-like structure with diameter between 5 and 20 nm.

Abstract
Energy problems have become increasingly prominent. The use of thermal insulation materials is an effective measure to save energy. As an efficient energy-saving material, nanocellulose aerogels have broad application prospects. However, nanocellulose aerogels have problems such as poor mechanical properties, high flammability, and they easily absorbs water from the environment. These defects restrict their thermal insulation performance and severely limit their application. This review analyzes the thermal insulation mechanism of nanocellulose aerogels and summarizes the methods of preparing them from biomass raw materials. In addition, aiming at the inherent defects of nanocellulose aerogels, this review focuses on the methods used to improve their mechanical properties, flame retardancy, and hydrophobicity in order to prepare high-performance thermal insulation materials in line with the concept of sustainable development, thereby promoting energy conservation, rational use, and expanding the application of nanocellulose aerogels.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 234:123692.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the physicochemical properties of the rice porous starch (HSS-ES) prepared by high-speed shear combined with double-enzymatic (α-amylase and glucoamylase) hydrolysis, and to reveal their mechanism. The analyses of 1H NMR and amylose content showed that high-speed shear changed the molecular structure of starch and increased the amylose content (up to 20.42 ± 0.04 %). FTIR, XRD and SAXS spectra indicated that high-speed shear did not change the starch crystal configuration but caused a decrease in short-range molecular order and relative crystallinity (24.42 ± 0.06 %), and a loose semi-crystalline lamellar, which were beneficial to the followed double-enzymatic hydrolysis. Therefore, the HSS-ES displayed a superior porous structure and larger specific surface area (2.962 ± 0.002 m2/g) compared with double-enzymatic hydrolyzed porous starch (ES), resulting in the increase of water and oil absorption from 130.79 ± 0.50 % and 109.63 ± 0.71 % to 154.79 ± 1.14 % and 138.40 ± 1.18 %, respectively. In vitro digestion analysis showed that the HSS-ES had good digestive resistance derived from the higher content of slowly digestible and resistant starch. The present study suggested that high-speed shear as an enzymatic hydrolysis pretreatment significantly enhanced the pore formation of rice starch.

Abstract
Jujube cores are fiber-rich industrial waste. Dewaxing, alkali treatment, bleaching, and sulfuric acid hydrolysis were used to generate cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from the jujube cores in this study. The morphological, structural, crystallinity, and thermal properties of the fibers were investigated using FE-SEM, TEM, AFM, FT-IR, XRD, and TGA under various processes. CNCs’ zeta (ζ) potential and water contact angle (WAC) were also investigated. The findings demonstrate that non-fibrous components were effectively removed, and the fiber particles shrunk over time because of many activities. CNCs had a rod-like shape, with a length of 205.7 ± 52.4 nm and a 20.5 aspect ratio. The crystal structure of cellulose Iβ was preserved by the CNCs, and the crystallinity was 72.36%. The temperature of the fibers’ thermal degradation lowered during the operations, although CNCs still had outstanding thermal stability (>200 °C). Aside from the CNCs, the aqueous suspension of CNCs was slightly agglomerated; thus, the zeta (ζ) potential of the CNCs’ suspension was −23.72 ± 1.7 mV, and the powder had high hydrophilicity. This research will be valuable to individuals who want to explore the possibility for CNCs made of jujube cores.

Abstract
Pomelo fruitlets have the potential for extracting cellulose. This study aimed to investigate characterization and functionality of cellulose extracted from pomelo fruitlets by different extraction methods. Cellulose extracted by acidic-alkaline hydrogen peroxide hydrolysis (CAA), alkaline hydrogen peroxide hydrolysis (CA), and ultrasonic assisted alkaline hydrogen peroxide hydrolysis (CUA) were prepared from pomelo fruitlets. The results showed that cellulose CUA had higher yield and purity with higher crystallinity and smaller particle size than those of CAA or CA (p < 0.05). Specifically, the yield of CUA was 82.75% higher than that of CAA, and purity was increased by 26.42%. Additionally, water- and oil-holding capacities of CUA were superior to those of CAA or CA, increasing by 13–23% and 10–18%, respectively. The improvement of water- and oil-holding capacities were highly related to its smaller particle size with increased surface area. The results suggested that ultrasonic assisted alkaline hydrogen peroxide hydrolysis is a promising and efficient method to prepare high-purity cellulose from pomelo fruitlets, and this cellulose is expected to be a food stabilizer and pharmaceutical additive.
