Effect of surface charge on mechano-bactericidal activity of cellulose nanocrystals constructed chevaux-de-frise and meat preservation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The nanostructured insect wings have inspired the development of antimicrobial surfaces with mechano-bactericidal activity. For the first time, a chevaux-de-frise-like nanostructure was fabricated through the coating of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) onto regenerated cellulose (RC) films via vacuum filtration and the impact of contact time, temperature, and surface topography on eliminating foodborne bacteria was examined. Herein, our focus is to explore in more detail how the surface charge of CNC affects the mechano-bactericidal activity and the performance of chevaux-de-frise-like nanostructure in meat preservation. CNC with neutral (weak), negative, and positive charges were prepared by hydrochloric acid hydrolysis (HCNC), TEMPO oxidation (TCNC), and amination (ACNC), respectively, and showed similar reinforcing effects on the tensile strength (increased from 74.23 ± 1.20 to about 100 MPa) and water vapor barrier property (reduced from 1.83 ± 0.08 to about 1.20 × 10 −7 g m −1 h −1 Pa −1 ). Among them, RC-ACNC showed the highest log reduction against Escherichia coli (0.83 ± 0.06) and Staphylococcus aureus (0.69 ± 0.04) after 5 min contact, respectively, indicating the important role of attractive force in fast eliminating bacteria upon contact. It was worth noting that, during the meat preservation test, all three CNC-coated RC films exhibited a similar 0.4 log reduction of bacteria after day 4, likely due to the same physical attachment with an extended contact time. Therefore, the construction of chevaux-de-frise nanostructure from CNC on food packaging provides a sustainable strategy to contribute to preventing bacterial growth. • Chevaux-de-frise nanostructures were constructed by three types of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) with different charges. • Three CNC-coated RC films exhibited similar enhanced tensile strength and water vapor barrier property. • Positively charged RC-ACNC was effective in quickly attracting bacteria to achieve an antimicrobial effect. • Three CNC-coated RC films showed obvious bacterial inhibition activity during meat storage at 4 ℃.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
