This article has focused on collagen-gelatin, the gelation process, as well as blend interaction between collagen/gelatin with various polysaccharides to boost mucoadhesion and gastric retention. The interaction between mucoadhesive materials and mucin layers is of significant interest in the development of drug delivery systems and biomedical applications for effective targeting and prolonged time in the gastrointestinal tract. This paper reviews the current advancement and mucoadhesive properties of collagen/gelatin and different polysaccharide complexes concerning the mucin layer and interactions are briefly highlighted. Collagen/gelatin and polysaccharide blends biocompatible and biodegradable, the complex biomolecules have shown encouraging mucoadhesive properties due to their cationic nature and ability to form hydrogen bonds with mucin glycoproteins. The mucoadhesion mechanism was attributed to the electrostatic interactions between the positively charged amino (NH) groups of blend biopolymers and the negatively charged sialic acid residues present in mucin glycoprotein. At the end of this article, the encouraging prospect of collagen/polysaccharide complex and mucin glycoprotein is highlighted.

Objective: The application progress of medical absorbable haemostatic material (MAHM) in hemostasis during orthoapedic surgery was reviewed, in order to provide reference for clinical hemostasis program.
Methods: The domestic and foreign literature on the application of MAHM for hemostasis in orthopedic surgery was extensively reviewed and summarized.
Results: According to biocompatibility, MAHM can be divided into oxidized cellulose/oxidized regenerated cellulose materials, chitosan and its derivatives materials, starch materials, collagen and gelatin materials, and fibrin glue materials, , which can effectively reduce blood loss when used in orthopedic surgery for hemostasis.

With the emphasis placed by society on environmental resources, current petroleum-based packaging in the food industry can no longer meet people's needs. However, new active packaging technologies have emerged, such as proteins, polysaccharides, and lipids, in which proteins are widely used for their outstanding gel film-forming properties. Most of the current literature focuses on research applications of single protein-based films.

Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a widely used procedure that prevents the fast in-growth of soft tissues into bone defect. Among the different types of membranes, the use of collagen membranes is the gold standard. However, these membranes are implanted in tissue location where a severe acute inflammation will occur and can be negatively affected.
