The present invention relates to an aqueous barrier coating composition comprising: 50-99.9% by weight of one or more anionic low molecular weight polysaccharide(s) having a degree of polymerization (DP) in the range of 2-12; 0.1-10% by weight of a polycationic polymer; based on the total dry weight of the aqueous barrier coating composition.

A composition suitable for making edible films or coatings, the composition comprising a conjugate of bio fiber gum and whey protein isolate and at least one food grade antimicrobial.

Disclosed are a scrub sponge and a preparation method therefor. The method for preparing the scrub sponge includes the operations of: obtaining a first mixture by stirring alkalizer, porogen, konjac powder, scrub granule and water, and filling the first mixture into a mold to form a preform, where the preform includes a first sponge layer; forming a parison by sequentially cooking and freezing the preform; and sequentially unfreezing, dehydrating and drying the parison to obtain the scrub sponge.

The present invention relates to a composition and method for active packaging of fresh plant products, in particular fresh plant based food products. The invention also relates to means for storage of fresh plant products and to a method for continuous production and controlled release of volatile oxidation products of lipids in packages or in the vicinity of fresh plant based goods.

This invention belongs to the technical field of composite materials, and discloses a xylan-based dual network nanocomposite hydrogel, preparation method thereof and use therefor. The method comprises (1) adding graphite oxide powder into deionized water, ultrasonically dispersing to obtain a GO aqueous dispersion; (2) adding xylan into deionized water, heating and stirring to obtain a xylan solution; (3) adding a water-soluble calcium salt, a reaction monomer and the xylan solution into the GO aqueous dispersion, and stirring and dispersing uniformly under an ice-bath condition, then adding an initiator, a crosslinking agent and an accelerator, stirring and mixing uniformly to obtain a mixed solution; and 4) drying and reacting the mixed solution (in the step (3) to obtain a xylan-based dual network nanocomposite hydrogel. The composite hydrogel obtained by this invention has high mechanical property, is biodegradable and biocompatible, and can be used in the field of biomedicine, such as tissue engineering, drug sustained release, cell culture scaffold and cartilage tissue, etc.

The present invention belongs to the technical field of composite materials, and disclosed are a xylan-based double network nanocomposite hydrogel and the preparation and application thereof. The method includes: (1) adding a graphite oxide powder into deionized water, and ultrasonically dispersing to obtain a GO water dispersion; (2) adding xylan into deionized water, heating and stiffing to obtain a xylan solution; (3) adding a water-soluble calcium salt, a reaction monomer and the xylan solution into the GO water dispersion, stiffing and dispersing uniformly under an ice-bath condition, adding an initiator, a cross-linking agent and an accelerator, and stiffing to mix well so as to obtain a mixed solution; (4) subjecting the mixed solution of step (3) to a drying reaction, to obtain the xylan based double network nanocomposite hydrogel. The composite hydrogel obtained in the present invention has high mechanical properties, is biodegradable and has good biocompatibility. The present invention is applicable in the field of biomedicine, such as tissue engineering, drug sustained-release, cell culture scaffold and cartilage tissue, etc.
