AB  - Bioactive peptides are promising cosmetic active ingredients that can improve skin health
and appearance. They exhibit a broad spectrum of activity, including anti-aging, antioxidant, an-
timicrobial, and anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of this study was to develop a safe, stable, and
efficacious environmentally friendly (“green”) emulsion using a milk protein hydrolysate as a model
active ingredient. Potential emulsions were formulated with biodegradable emollients, stabilized
with naturally derived mixed emulsifier, and prepared by cold process. They were evaluated for
rheological behavior (continuous rotation and oscillation tests), physical stability (dynamic me-
chanical thermal analysis—DMTA test), and texture profiles, as well as cytotoxic, antioxidant, and
antimicrobial effects. Rheological characterization revealed shear-thinning flow behavior with yield
point from continuous rotation tests and predominantly elastic character from oscillation (amplitude
and frequency sweep) tests, with small structural change detected in the DMTA test. These results
implied satisfactory rheological properties and good stability. Texture analysis revealed acceptable
spreadability and substantivity of the emulsions. The protein hydrolysate showed antioxidant activity.
The developed emulsions showed low antibacterial activity against selected microorganisms, but
this was due to the action of preservatives, not peptides. All potential emulsions showed a desirable
safety profile. The results obtained provide the basis for the next stage of formulation development,
i.e., in vivo efficacy tests.

AB  - Electrophoretic deposition process (EPD) was successfully used for obtaining graphene (Gr)-reinforced composite coating based on hydroxyapatite (HAP), chitosan (CS), and antibiotic gentamicin (Gent), from aqueous suspension. The deposition process was performed as a single step process at a constant voltage (5 V, deposition time 12 min) on pure titanium foils. The influence of graphene was examined through detailed physicochemical and biological characterization. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, Raman, and X-ray photoelectron analyses confirmed the formation of composite HAP/CS/Gr and HAP/CS/Gr/Gent coatings on Ti. Obtained coatings had porous, uniform, fracture-free surfaces, suggesting strong interfacial interaction between HAP, CS, and Gr. Large specific area of graphene enabled strong bonding with chitosan, acting as nanofiller throughout the polymer matrix. Gentamicin addition strongly improved the antibacterial activity of HAP/CS/Gr/Gent coating that was confirmed by antibacterial activity kinetics in suspension and agar diffusion testing, while results indicated more pronounced antibacterial effect against Staphylococcus aureus (bactericidal, viable cells number reduction >3 logarithmic units) compared to Escherichia coli (bacteriostatic, <3 logarithmic units). MTT assay indicated low cytotoxicity (75% cell viability) against MRC-5 and L929 (70% cell viability) tested cell lines, indicating good biocompatibility of HAP/CS/Gr/Gent coating. Therefore, electrodeposited HAP/CS/Gr/Gent coating on Ti can be considered as a prospective material for bone tissue engineering as a hard tissue implant.
