Abstract:
Mucilage is a gelatinous mixture of polysaccharides secreted from the seed coat and/or pericarp of many plant seeds when soaked in water. Mucilage affected seed germination while maintaining hydration levels during scarcity. Cydonia oblonga (quince) seeds are natural hydrocolloids extruding biocompatible mucilage mainly composed of polysaccharides. Quince seed mucilage (QSM) has fascinated researchers due to its applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. On a commercial scale, QSM preserved the sensory and physiochemical properties of various products such as yogurt, desserts, cakes, and burgers. QSM is responsive to salts, pH, and solvents and is mainly investigated as edible coatings in the food industry. In tablet formulations, modified and unmodified QSM as a binder sustained the release of various drugs such as cefixime, capecitabine, diclofenac sodium, theophylline, levosulpiride, diphenhydramine, metoprolol tartrate, and acyclovir sodium. QSM acted as a reducing and capping agent to prepare nanoparticles for good antimicrobial resistance, photocatalytic characteristics, and wound-healing potential. The present review discussed the extraction optimization, chemical composition, stimuli-responsiveness, and viscoelastic properties of mucilage. The potential of mucilage in edible films, tissue engineering, and water purification will also be discussed.
摘要:
胶浆是当浸泡在水中时从许多植物种子的种皮和/或果皮分泌的多糖的凝胶状混合物。胶浆影响种子发芽,同时在稀缺期间保持水合水平。长圆丝裂藻(木瓜)种子是天然的水胶体,挤出主要由多糖组成的生物相容性粘液。Quince种子粘液(QSM)因其在食品和制药行业的应用而使研究人员着迷。在商业规模上,QSM保留了各种产品的感官和理化特性,如酸奶,甜点,蛋糕,还有汉堡.QSM对盐有反应,pH值,和溶剂,主要作为食品工业中的可食用涂料进行研究。在片剂配方中,修饰和未修饰的QSM作为粘合剂持续释放各种药物,如头孢克肟,卡培他滨,双氯芬酸钠,茶碱,左舒必利,苯海拉明,酒石酸美托洛尔,和阿昔洛韦钠.QSM作为还原剂和封端剂制备纳米颗粒具有良好的抗微生物性,光催化特性,和伤口愈合的潜力。本综述讨论了提取优化,化学成分,刺激反应,和粘液的粘弹性。粘液在可食用薄膜中的潜力,组织工程,和水净化也将讨论。
