The purpose of this study is to reveal the mechanism of preparing high quality modified starch by ultrasonic technology. In this paper, ultrasonic modified starch and octenyl succinic anhydride modified starch with low degree of substitution were prepared under ultrasonic conditions, using sweet potato starch as raw material. The effects of ultrasound on the structure and properties of native sweet potato starch were studied to see whether ultrasound could produce mechanochemical effect on starch. Then the mechanism of ultrasonic effect on quality of octenyl succinic anhydride modified starch was studied by mechanochemical effect. The results showed that after ultrasonic treatment for 1 min, the crystallinity decreased from 37.6 to 33.8% and reaction efficiency increased from 49.43 to 54.39%, while after ultrasonic treatments for 8 and 32-60 min had different changes. These changes showed that ultrasonic treatment produced significant mechanochemical effect on native sweet potato starch. Ultrasound significantly improved the quality of octenyl succinic anhydride modified starch, and its influence mechanism was revealed using the theory of mechanochemistry. This study provides a feasible method for the research of high quality modified starch and lays a theoretical foundation for expanding the application of ultrasound in various fields.

The study involves the modification of a non-conventional starch isolated from the under-utilized variety of Chinese water chestnut (CWC (Eleocharis tuberosa) and integrating it to fabricate stabilized and curcumin-enriched Pickering emulsions with enhanced bioavailability, thermal stability, and retention of encapsulated curcumin. A time-efficient, semi-dried esterification method was used to prepare modified amphiphilic starches using 3, 6, or 9 % (w/v) octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) and characterized through degree of substitution (DS), contact angle, particle size, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and in-vitro digestibility. Moreover, Pickering emulsions were formulated using CWCS-OSA at 3 %, 6 %, or 9 % concentrations to serve as a carrier for curcumin to improve its water solubility and storage stability.

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are cyclic polysaccharides characterized by their unique hollow structure, making them highly effective carriers for pharmaceutical agents. CD-based delivery systems are extensively utilized to enhance drug stability, increase solubility, improve oral bioavailability, and facilitate controlled release and targeted delivery. This review initially provides a concise overview of nano drug delivery systems, followed by a detailed introduction of the structural features and benefits of CDs.

This study explores the effect of fatty acid chain length in regulating the structural changes and physicochemical properties of high-amylose maize starch (HAMS) induced by annealing with fatty acid solution (AFAS). AFAS was found to effectively regulate the conformation of amylose molecular chains within starch granules. Annealing with fatty acids of shorter chain length, such as lauric acid, promoted the formation of both double and single helices within HAMS granules.

A novel starch-based emulsion gel was designed via octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) esterification, ozone oxidation, and ion (Ca) induction. The gel properties and low-temperature stability of emulsion gel with different oxidation time (0, 5, 10, 15, 25 min; OW-0, 5, 10, 15, 25) were systematically investigated. FTIR revealed that the oxidation of CC and -OH groups in OW-0 by ozone oxidation led to their cleavage into carbonyl groups, and than transformed to carboxyl groups.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are promising therapeutic carriers for their ideal nano-size and intrinsic biocompatibility, while rapid clearance and limited targeting ability are the major setbacks of EVs. With minimal absorption into the systemic circulation, inhalation for pulmonary disease therapy minimizes off-target toxicity to other organs and offers a safe and effective treatment for respiratory disorders. Herein, a nano-grid carrier made of boronated cyclodextrin framework (BCF) was prepared for pH/HO responsive release of EVs.
