Regardless of the considerable progress in properties and versatility of synthetic polymers, their low biodegradability and lack of environmentally-friendly character remains a critical issue. Pectin is a natural-based polysaccharide contained in the cell walls of many plants allowing their growth and cell extension. This biopolymer can be extracted from plants and isolated as a bioplastic material with different applications, including food packaging. This review aims to present the latest research results regarding pectin, including the structure, different types, natural sources and potential use in several sectors, particularly in food packaging materials. Many researchers are currently working on a multitude of food and beverage industry applications related to pectin as well as combinations with other biopolymers to improve some key properties, such as antioxidant/antimicrobial performance and flexibility to obtain films. All these advances are covered in this review.

Recent Trends in the Use of Pectin from Agro-Waste Residues as a Natural-Based Biopolymer for Food Packaging Applications.

Pectin is a polymer with a core of alternating α-1,4-linked d-galacturonic acid and α-1,2-l-rhamnose units, as well as a variety of neutral sugars such as arabinose, galactose, and lesser amounts of other sugars. Currently, native pectins have been compared to modified ones due to the development of natural medicines and health products. In this review, the results of a study of the bioactivity of pectic polysaccharides, including its various pharmacological applications, such as its immunoregulatory, anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic, antibacterial, antioxidant and antitumor activities, have been summarized. The potential of pectins to contribute to the enhancement of drug delivery systems has been observed.

The use of polymer blends as matrix materials for nanocomposites is recognized as a challenging route for the development of a novel form of high-geared materials having merits of both polymer blends and nanocomposites Improvement in the properties (eg, chemical, thermal, mechanical, etc) of polymer blends along with modifications to achieve stabilized blend morphology by using nanofillers has attracted the attention of scientists This chapter presents recent developments in the polymer blends-based nanocomposites Emphasis is placed on polymer blends-based different types of nanocomposites, their fabrication techniques, and their applications Properties and intercalation of polymer layered silicate material is also described In addition, factors affecting the mechanical properties and changes in the morphology of polymer blends with noncomposites are discussed while modern developments are also highlighted

The current research was focused on exploring the gender difference in Alexithymia among Graduation Students of Pakistan. Participants of (N=200) students men (n=100) and women (n=100) selected from poles apart academic organization in Faisalabad city of Punjab, Pakistan. TAS 20 item (Bagby, Parker, & Taylor, 1994) was used to measure Alexithymia. An independent sample t-test was used for statistical analysis. The results of this study supported the findings of earlier studies which indicated a significant gender difference in Alexithymia. It was concluded that men experience high level of Alexithymia as compared to women. Implications of these findings and suggestions for future researches are discussed.

Objective: To explore the level of and relationship between compassion satisfaction (CS), secondary traumatic stress (STS), and burnout (BO) and to find out significant predictors of compassion satisfaction among rescuers. Methodology: This study was based on cross-sectional survey research design. It was conducted in Faisalabad Division from September to December 2016. A sample of 185 men with mean age 32.45 ±5.64 paramedics (n=100) and firefighters (n=85) working in Rescue 1122 were selected with purposive sampling technique from Faisalabad and Chiniot City. Professional Quality of Life scale developed by Stamm (2009) was used to measure the level of CS, STS and BO among paramedics and fire fighters. Results: Significant positive relationship between CS and STS and significant negative relationship between CS and BO among rescuers were observed (p <0.01). Rescuers’ have moderate level of CS, STS and BO. Compassion satisfaction was significantly predicted from age group, marital status, living area, socioeconomic status, nature of job, STS and BO (F [7,177] =44.37, p =.001) R2 =.64. Conclusion: Rescuers had average level of and significant relationship with CS, STS, and BO. Compassion satisfaction was significantly predicted from age group, marital status, living area, and socioeconomic status, nature of job, STS and BO.
