Few studies have been conducted on the relationship between the crosslinking ability of dialdehyde polysaccharides (DPs) with different structures and the structure and properties of hydrogels. Herein, the effects of dialdehyde sodium alginate (DSA), dialdehyde guar gum (DGG), and dialdehyde dextran (DDE) as crosslinking agents for gelatin (GE)-based hydrogels were comparatively studied. First, the structure and aldehyde content of DPs were evaluated. Subsequently, the structure, crosslinking degree, and physicochemical properties of GE/DP hydrogels were characterized. Compared with pure GE hydrogels, GE/DP hydrogels had higher thermal stability and mechanical properties. Moreover, the aldehyde content of DPs was ordered as follows: DSA < DGG < DDE. The higher crosslinking degree of the hydrogels formed by DPs with a higher aldehyde content resulted in smaller hydrogel pores, higher mechanical strength, and a lower equilibrium swelling rate. These observations provide a theoretical basis for selecting crosslinking candidates for hydrogel-specific applications.

Severe burns pose significant threats to patient well-being, characterized by pain, inflammation, bacterial infection, and extended recovery periods. While exosome-loaded hydrogels have demonstrated considerable promise in wound healing, current formulations often fall short of achieving optimal therapeutic efficacy for burn wounds due to challenges related to their adaptability to wound shape and limited anti-bacterial capabilities. In this study a novel exosome laden sprayable thermosensitive polysaccharide-based hydrogel (ADA-aPF127@LL18/Exo) comprising alginate dialdehyde (ADA) and aminated Pluronic F127 (aPF127) was fabricated via Schiff base reaction.

Polysaccharide-based films have received increasing attention as promising candidates for petrochemical plastics. However, they are highly brittle, poorly hydrophobic and without antibacterial activity, while current films used to address these issues often struggle to manage the balance between these properties. To achieve a balance of several performance indices of the films, functionalized dialdehyde cellulose nanocrystals (DCNCs) were prepared to activate pectin-based films.

Chronic diabetes wound repairing is still a huge challenge in clinical practice. High concentration of reactive oxygen species and vascular disfunction are the main factors hindering the recovery of diabetes wounds. This research grafted betaine onto chitosan (CSBT) to enhance the antibacterial property and the CSBT was cross-linked with PEO dialdehyde (PEO DA) to prepare hydrogel with Ca loading to promote the coagulation.

Article Synopsis
  • Biodegradable cellulosic mulch is a promising alternative to traditional plastic mulch in agriculture, but its water absorption and strength issues limited its use.
  • Researchers developed a new waterproof mulch film (OR-P-A) using dialdehyde cellulose and polyamide epichlorohydrin that improved the strength and water resistance of the material.
  • The new mulch film (OR-P-A) showed significant advancements, like an increased water contact angle and comparable seed germination rates to traditional polyethylene film, offering a sustainable solution for agriculture.
