AbstractThe success of hyaluronic acid in over-the-counter cosmetics has been limited by its poor storage stability in aqueous environments due to premature swelling and hydrolysis. Here, hyaluronic acid was prepared in dry microparticles, encapsulated by spray-drying in patented in situ calcium cross-linked alginate microcapsules (CLAMs) to minimize swelling and release in aqueous formulations. CLAMs prepared with 61% (d.b.) hyaluronic acid (HA-CLAMs) demonstrated restricted plumping, limited water absorption capacity, and reduced leaching; retaining up to 49 % hyaluronic acid after 2 hrs in water. A new method using chelated soluble calcium resulted in particles with significantly improved hyaluronic acid retention in water. ‘Chelate HA-CLAMs’ exhibited nearly full retention of hyaluronic acid over 2 hr incubation in water, and remained visibly insoluble after 1 year of storage in water at 4°C. Successful hyaluronic acid retention in CLAMs is likely due to the ability of hyaluronic acid to participate in calcium cross-linking.

At this work hydrogel and composite hydrogel systems based on ԑ-polylysine (EPL), hyaluronic acid (HA) and nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (nHAp) were synthesized via chemical cross-linking method followed by in situ precipitation of nHAp into hydrogel copolymer matrix. Molecular structure, phase composition and morphology of EPL-HA and EPL-HA/nHAp systems were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The fabricated hydrogels and composite hydrogels were evaluated by hydrogels characteristics such as gel fraction and swelling behavior. This study provides a new insight to develop cutting-edge bioactive hydrogels and composite hydrogels for bone tissue engineering as injectable biomaterials due to beneficial properties of system components.

Microencapsulation of curcumin in jelly fig pectin was performed by the vacuum spray drying (VSD) technique. The VSD was advanced with a low inlet temperature of 80–90 °C and low pressure of 0.01 mPa. By the in situ cross-linking with multivalent calcium ions, jelly fig pectin produced stable curcumin encapsulated microparticles. The physiochemical characteristics of microparticles were thoroughly investigated. The results revealed that 0.75 w/w% of jelly fig pectin and inlet temperature of 90 °C could be feasible for obtaining curcumin microparticles. The VSD technique showed the best encapsulation efficiency and yield and loading efficiency was up to 91.56 ± 0.80%, 70.02 ± 1.96%, and 5.45 ± 0.14%, respectively. The curcumin was readily released into simulated gastrointestinal fluid with 95.34 ± 0.78% cumulative release in 24 h. The antioxidant activity was stable after being stored for six months and stored as a solution for seven days at room temperature before analysis. Hence, the VSD technique could be applicable for the microencapsulation of bioactive compounds such as curcumin to protect and use in the food/pharmaceutical industry.
