The CD spectra of aqueous solutions of homopolymeric sodium oligogalacturonates and D-galacturonans of polymerization degree n = 1-64, as well as lower calcium oligogalacturonates (n = 1-5) were measured. Chiroptic properties were correlated with the polymerization degree in terms of optical superposition of monomeric unit increments. Interpretation of obtained data, respecting further physicochemical properties entitles to conclude that the conformation of macromolecules of D-galacturonan in solution is close to helical structure.

The adsorption mechanisms of Zn2+ on carp biochars mainly include precipitation with minerals, exchange with cations, and complexation with OFGs. The pyrolysis temperature of carp biochars has a significant effect on the mechanisms of Zn2+ adsorption.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of radiation sterilization on alginate wound dressing containing honey from the Philippine stingless bee, Tetragonula biroi. Our results show that a radiation dose of 30 kGy did not affect the antibacterial property of honey against Staphylococcus aureus. Electron-beam irradiation did not produce significant alterations in the physicochemical properties (pH, total soluble solids, and flavonoids); however, the total phenolics was significantly increased in honey with higher irradiation doses. Demonstrating that irradiation can be applied to honey with negligible physicochemical effects, honey was incorporated in alginate and exposed to a sterilization dose of 25 kGy using an electron beam facility. Irradiation did not affect the physicochemical properties (pH, moisture content, gel fraction, moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR), and fluid handling capacity) of the honey alginate wound dressing (HAWD). The perspectives for the potential use of irradiated HAWD as a natural product-based substitute for commercial wound care products may be considered.
