Kefiran was isolated from kefir grains and its biological activity was assessed on different cell lines. Proliferation (trypan blue exclusion assay), mitochondrial activity (MTT assay), viability (Alive-Vulnerable-Dead model, AVD) and cell death were studied. It was found that proliferation was not inhibited in mesodermal cell line MC3 (osteoblast cell line) or in not-invasive colonocytes (Caco-2/TC7 cell line); on the contrary, the high invasive HT29 cell line and the UMR106 osteosarcoma cell line were sensitive to kefiran 0.5 mg/mL, and a significant diminishment on cell proliferation was found by trypan blue dye exclusion assay. Kefiran maintained mitochondrial activity while increased cell death processes in a dose-dependent way in HT29 cell line. When viability was assessed by AVD model, it was found that kefiran increased vulnerability status of neoplasic cell line HT29. In summary, in the present work, we shown that kefiran has a different effect on tumor and non-tumor cell lines.

PLSs have hydrophilic chains containing various chemical groups of several compositions that differ structurally and in their physicochemical and biological effects.

To overcome these disadvantages, PLSs can be chemically modified by grafting groups that can give the compound a more hydrophobic nature. In the present study, the PLS from <em>Gracilaria domingensis</em> was modified with propionic anhydride (PLS-AP) and underwent complementary characterizations by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, infrared spectral analysis and elemental analysis. The reaction with propionic anhydride increased crystallinity and produced a chemically modified polysaccharide with new carbon, hydrogen and sulfur groups. The new characteristic of the compound may have added interesting properties to PLS, such as increased stability, amphiphilic nature and increased sulfate content, which in red marine algae SPSs produce biological activity. Regarding biological properties, PLS-AP (2.5 mg/kg) significantly reduced paw edema induced by carrageenan, histamine, serotonin, bradykinin and prostaglandin E2, as well as improved microscopic tissue damage criteria. The modified compound was also able to significantly decrease neutrophil migration, myeloperoxidase, and malondialdehyde concentrations and preserved glutathione levels in peritoneal fluid during induced peritonitis. Additionally, in antinociceptive tests, PLS-AP reduced the number of contortions induced by acetic acid and the response time to formalin-induced paw licking.

The resulting chitosan showcased remarkable characteristics, including high solubility, a high degree of deacetylation, a well-defined crystalline structure, and a rough surface with minimal pores. The application of chitosan as a coating material for tomatoes demonstrated significant preservation benefits compared to commercially available chitosan. The chitosan coating proved effective in minimizing weight loss, reducing the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and preserving essential compounds such as anthocyanin content and antioxidant enzymes in tomatoes. Firstly, the chitosan coating served as a physical barrier, preventing moisture loss and maintaining the tomatoes' structural integrity. Secondly, the antimicrobial properties of chitosan hindered the growth of spoilage-causing microorganisms, extending the shelf life of the tomatoes. Additionally, the chitosan coating exhibited antioxidant properties, scavenging ROS and preserving the natural antioxidants in tomatoes. Furthermore, the chitosan coating facilitated controlled gas exchange, allowing optimal levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide to maintain the freshness of the tomatoes without accelerating the ripening process. With the help of the above-mentioned mechanisms, the potential of the microbially synthesized chitosan to enhance the shelf life of the tomatoes can be explained which was found better than the commercially synthesized chitosan coating. This research underscores the potential of microbially synthesized chitosan as an effective coating material but also provides insights into the intricate mechanisms involved in preserving tomatoes.
