Abstract
The Chinese yam polysaccharides PLGA nanoparticles were applied as stabilizers in this study to prepare O/W Pickering emulsion. The optimized preparation conditions were PLGA concentration of 5 mg/mL, ultrasonic power of 50 %, and ultrasonic time of 2 min. The CYP-PPAS emulsion exhibits a raspberry-like morphology with a large number of nanoparticles surrounding the oil droplets. The CYP-PPAS emulsion exhibited outstanding stability at 4 °C and 37 °C for 28 days with high antigen loading efficiency and provided a controlled and sustained release of Chinese yam polysaccharides and OVA antigen in vitro. CYP-PPAS/OVA elicited robust antigen-specific immune response and induced a mixed Th1/Th2 immune response after immunization. Furthermore, CYP-PPAS/OVA caused a high CD4+/CD8+ ratio leading in increased activation of splenic T lymphocytes subpopulations. Moreover, CYP-PPAS is a safe vaccination adjuvant with high safety profile in vivo. Thus, the novel designed Pickering emulsion CYP-PPAS was a safe and effective adjuvant for inducing the strong and long-term immune response.

Role of Surface Energy of Nanoparticle Stabilizers in the Synthesis of Microspheres via Pickering Emulsion Polymerization. NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12060995.

Abstract
Polymer microspheres are important for a variety of applications, such as ion exchange chromatography, catalyst supports, absorbents, etc. Synthesis of large microspheres can be challenging, because they cannot be obtained easily via classic emulsion polymerization, but rather by more complex methods. Here, we present a facile method for obtaining polymer microspheres, beyond 50 μm, via Pickering emulsion polymerization. The method consists in creating oil-in-water (o/w) Pickering emulsion/suspension from vinyl bearing monomers, immiscible with water, whereas silica nanoparticles (NPs), bearing glycidyl functionalities, have a stabilizing role by adsorbing at the monomer/water interface of emulsion droplets. The emulsion is polymerized under UV light, and polymer microspheres decorated with NPs are obtained. We discovered that the contact angle of the NPs with the polymer microsphere is the key parameter for tuning the size and the quality of the obtained microspheres. The contact angle depends on the NPs’ interfacial energy and its polar and dispersive contributions, which we determine with a newly developed NanoTraPPED method. By varying the NPs’ surface functionality, we demonstrate that when their interfacial energy with water decreases, their energy of adhesion to water increases, causing the curvature of the polymer/water interface to decrease, resulting in increasingly larger polymer microspheres.

Abstract
The interfacial polycondensation of titanium dioxide was studied at the bare and fiberglass membrane supported polarized liquid–liquid interface (LLI). Titanium dioxide synthesis was derived from the titanium (IV) tetrabutoxide (initially dissolved in the 1,2-dichloroethane) interfacial hydrolysis followed by its condensation. Experimental parameters, such as the pH of the aqueous phase and the influence of titanium alkoxide concentration in the organic phase on the electrochemical signal and material morphology, were investigated. The latter was achieved with fiberglass membranes used as the LLI support during TiO2 interfacial deposition. Cyclic voltammetry was used for the in situ studies, whereas scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and infrared spectroscopy were used during ex situ examination. The interfacial polycondensation reaction could be studied using electrified LLI and resulted in the material being a TiO2 film alone or film decorated with particles.

Abstract
Investigations on lithographically formed cavities of surface-imprinted polymers (SIP) can help to gain deeper understanding on cell recognition with SIPs: it is known that surface topography and biomolecules transferred during surface imprinting contribute to cell adhesion. In this work, SIPs synthesized via two different imprinting techniques, namely stamp imprinting and polymerization of Pickering emulsions, were investigated and compared to each other, using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Peak Force Quantitative Nano Mechanics (PF-QNM). We focused on SIPs based on poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) as model polymer and E. coli as model template for cell imprinting. Both imprinting approaches led to cavities that revealed nanostructures within the imprints. Stamp imprinting cavities feature low surface roughness and channel structures that resemble the negative pattern of the bacteria on the stamp and their filaments, while SIPs synthesized via polymerization of Pickering emulsions reveal globular nanostructures accumulating in the imprints. AFM phase imaging and adhesion mapping using PF-QNM show that these globular structures are remainders of the imprinted E. coli cells, most likely lipopolysaccarides, which is not observable in imprints resulting from stamp imprinting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Because of the high surface/volume ratio in nanometric size particles, they exhibit novel functional properties in many industries, such as emulsion stabilization. Tragacanth nanoparticles (TNPs) were prepared in this research, applying intense ultrasound energy followed by anti-solvent precipitation in ethanol. RESULTS Investigation of wettability showed a contact angle of 88.9 ± 1.7° for TNPs, providing partial wetting of the nanoparticles at the oil-water interface. Pickering emulsions were prepared using TNPs at different oil contents. Also, emulsions containing tragacanth gum solution were prepared as control emulsions. Results showed that the viscosity of the emulsions prepared by the TNPs was significantly lower than those of the control emulsions. Microscopic images showed that the size of the emulsion droplets decreased by increasing the nanoparticle concentrations. Evaluation of the stability of the emulsions showed that changes in the average diameter of the emulsion droplets stabilized by nanoparticles were not significant after 1 month of storage at room temperature. In contrast, the size of the droplet of control emulsions increased over the 30 days of storage. Thermal and mechanical stresses confirmed the effect of the concentration of TNPs and the oil ratio on the stability of the emulsions. CONCLUSION The use of TNPs as a natural biopolymer is a promising approach in emulsion systems to prevent coalescence and increase the stability of the Pickering emulsions. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
After oil spills, the floating oil may interact with suspended minerals to form the oil-mineral aggregates (OMAs) in turbulent environments. In this work, a flume was used in conjunction with a settling device to investigate the vertical distribution and properties of OMAs formed by different clay minerals. The density and size of OMAs depend on the density and surface properties of the constituent particles, which also affect the vertical distribution of dispersed oil. Density of oil-montmorillonite aggregates increased from 1165 to 1897 kg/m3 within 6 h test. Among the four minerals, montmorillonite displayed the highest affinity with dispersed oil and the most significant modification of oil-water interfacial tension. Oil dispersion efficiency was significantly greater and reached 39.3% in the presence of montmorillonite at 300 mg/L compared with the control group (17.6%). Particle concentration is the most important factor for the capture of oil and participation of particles during the OMA formation, while the zeta potential and hydrophobicity have nonsignificant effect on the two processes. Cation exchange capacity has a moderate effect on the sunken oil formation, which is also the second main factor governing the particle participation. Particle size plays a second leading role in governing the sunken oil formation but with a minor contribution of the particle participation.

Abstract
Capsules with shells based on nanoparticles of different nature co-assembled at the interface of liquid phases of emulsion are promising carriers of lipophilic drugs. To obtain such capsules, theoretically using the Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek (DLVO) theory and experimentally using dynamic light-scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) methods, the interaction of like-charged silica nanoparticles and detonation nanodiamonds in an aqueous solution was studied and their ratios selected for the formation of submicron-sized colloidosomes. The resulting colloidosomes were modified with additional layers of nanoparticles and polyelectrolytes, applying LbL technology. As a model anti-cancer drug, thymoquinone was loaded into the developed capsules, demonstrating a significant delay of the release as a result of colloidosome surface modification. Fluorescence flow cytometry and confocal laser scanning microscopy showed efficient internalization of the capsules by MCF7 cancer cells. The obtained results demonstrated a high potential for nanomedicine application in the field of the drug-delivery system development.

Abstract
Pickering emulsion stabilized by cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) during the phase transition of the dispersed oil is poorly understood. We investigated the capability of CNC in stabilizing Pickering emulsions during the temperature-induced phase transition. Paraffin wax emulsions stabilized by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) were less stable than CNC stabilized emulsions. The relationship between droplet size and emulsifier content was examined, and a new model describing this relationship is proposed. The droplet size of CNC-based systems was not affected by temperature variation, even at low CNC concentrations. The minimum CNC content required to stabilize the paraffin wax emulsion was lower than SDS. DSC results indicated that higher droplet surface coverage with emulsifiers enhanced the deformation resistance of the crystallized droplets, which enhanced the emulsion stability. Temperature sweep viscosity measurements showed that the stability of CNC-based systems was not significantly impacted by the phase transition of the paraffin wax. Rheological amplitude sweep analysis indicated that emulsions above the melting point of paraffin wax were more stable at all strain levels. However, the SDS-based systems displayed substantial heterogeneity after the liquid-solid transition. Frequency sweep tests revealed that CNC-stabilized emulsions were more stable than SDS-stabilized emulsions.

In this study, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were used as an interfacial stabilizer to improve the stability of coconut oil (CO)-in-water emulsions. A Pickering emulsion consisting of CO and water was optimized based on four parameters using the response surface methodology and the central composite design. The droplet coverage remained stable during the crystallization of the oil phase when the temperature was reduced below the melting temperature of CO. Fluorescent-labeled CNCs were used to monitor the partitioning of CNC at the O/W interface during the crystallization of CO. The Generation 6 polyamidoamine (G6 PAMAM) dendrimer covalently grafted on the surface of CNC was used as an intrinsic fluorescent dye. Since it displayed similar properties as the emulsifier, it could be used to monitor the CNC coverage on the oil droplets at various temperatures. The fluorescence micrographs showed that the emission of PAMAM CNCs at the O/W interface remained on both the liquid and solid CO droplets, confirming that oil crystallization did not affect the fluorescent CNC coverage on the oil droplets.

Abstract
Egg yolk low density lipoprotein (LDL) was used to prepare high internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPEs) and its role as a stabilizer was comprehensively studied in this work. LDL exists as homogenous nanoparticles with an average size of 49 nm and amphiphilic nature, having a contact angle close to 90°. HIPEs were studied by varying compositions of 75%-90% oil phase and 25%-10% aqueous phase containing 0.5%-2% LDL. Rheological measurement, confocal laser scanning and optical microscopes imaging together with digital photos revealed the solid gel network, the strength of which was dependent upon oil volume fraction and LDL concentration. Optimal formulation of HIPEs was found as 80% oil and 2% LDL concentration, which exhibited small droplets under 10 µm with negligible aggregations, even after four weeks storage under refrigeration or heating at 90 ℃ for 30 min. After three freeze-thawing cycles, the HIPEs were demulsified losing their gel structure, but a simple re-homogenization was able to reconstitute the gel network identical to original microstructure. Encapsulation of curcumin into Pickering HIPEs provided exceptional photostability (around 80% retention rate) against ultraviolet radiation and improved its bioaccessibility from 10% to 50% during in vitro digestion. Our findings may bring new opportunities to design semi-solid foods using natural and edible ingredients.

Abstract
Here, we develop a framework for assembly, understanding, and application of functional emulsions stabilized by few-layer pristine two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets. Liquid-exfoliated graphene and MoS2 are demonstrated to stabilize emulsions at ultralow nanosheet volume fractions, approaching the minimum loading achievable with 2D materials. These nanosheet-stabilized emulsions allow controlled droplet deposition free from the coffee ring effect to facilitate single-droplet devices from minute quantities of material or assembly into large-area films with high network conductivity. To broaden the range of compositions and subsequent applications, an understanding of emulsion stability and orientation in terms of surface energy of the three phases is developed. Importantly, this model facilitates determination of the surface energies of the nanosheets themselves and identifies strategies based on surface tension and pH to allow design of emulsion structures. Finally, this approach is used to prepare conductive silicone emulsion composites with a record-low loading level and excellent electromechanical sensitivity. The versatility of these nanosheet-stabilized emulsions illustrates their potential for low-loading composites, thin-film formation and surface energy determination, and the design of functional structures for a range of segregated network applications.

Abstract
Nowadays, skin biocompatible products are fast-growing markets for nanocelluloses with increasing number of patents published in last decade. This review highlights recent developments, market trends, safety assessments, and regulations for different nanocellulose types (i.e. nanoparticles, nanocrystals, nanofibers, nanoyarns, bacterial nanocellulose) used in skincare, cosmetics, and healthcare. The specific properties of nanocelluloses for skincare include high viscosity and shear thinning properties, surface functionality, dispersion stability, water-holding capacity, purity, and biocompatibility. Depending on their morphology (e.g. size, aspect ratio, geometry, porosity), nanocelluloses can be used as formulation modifiers, moisturizers, nanofillers, additives, membranes, and films. Nanocellulose composite particles were recently developed as carriers for bioactive compounds or UV-blockers and platforms for wound healing and skin sensors. As toxicological assessment depends on morphologies and intrinsic properties, stringent regulation is needed from the testing of efficient nanocellulose dosages. The challenges and perspectives for an industrial breakthrough are related to optimization of production and processing conditions.

Examining the role of salinity on the dynamic stability of Pickering emulsions. J Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 608:2321-2329.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The effect of salinity on Pickering emulsion stability to coalescence under dynamic forces present during flow in porous media for applications including enhanced oil recovery is poorly understood. Recent work suggests the absence of significant electrostatic repulsion in brine prompts unattached particles to assemble into inter-droplet networks that increase emulsion stability. We hypothesize that emulsions stabilized by nanoparticles coated with (3-glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (GLYMO) will generate particle networks in brine and exhibit greater stability to coalescence than in deionized water (DI). EXPERIMENTS We stabilized decane-in-water emulsions with GLYMO-coated silica nanoparticles at various particle concentrations using brine and DI as the aqueous phase. We imaged the emulsions to calculate droplet diameters, then centrifuged the emulsions and weighed the volume of decane released to determine the extent of coalescence. We compared these measurements to evaluate the effect of salinity on emulsion stability. FINDINGS Emulsions demonstrate greater dynamic stability and smaller droplet diameters with increasing nanoparticle concentration and salinity. Controlling for differences in droplet size, we observe that brine reduces the emulsion coalescence rate by a factor of 78 ± 23 relative to DI. This difference supports and quantifies past work suggesting that unattached nanoparticles aggregate in brine and increase overall emulsion stability, whereas nanoparticles in DI remain separated.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Stabilization of water-in-water (W/W) emulsions resulting from the separation of polymeric phases such as dextran (DEX) and poly(ethyleneoxide) (PEO) is highly challenging, because of the very low interfacial tensions between the two phases and because of the interface thickness extending over several nanometers. In the present work, we present a new type of stabilizers, based on bis-hydrophilic, thermoresponsive microgels, incorporating in the same structure poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) chains having an affinity for the PEO phase and dextran moieties. We hypothesize that these particles allow better control of the stability of the W/W emulsions. EXPERIMENTS The microgels were synthesized by copolymerizing the NIPAM monomer with a multifunctional methacrylated dextran. They were characterized by dynamic light scattering, zeta potential measurements and nuclear magnetic resonance as a function of temperature. Microgels with different compositions were tested as stabilizers of droplets of the PEO phase dispersed in the DEX phase (P/D) or vice-versa (D/P), at different concentrations and temperatures. FINDINGS Only microgels with the highest DEX content revealed excellent stabilizing properties for the emulsions by adsorbing at the droplet surface, thus demonstrating the fundamental role of bis-hydrophilicity. At room temperature, both pNIPAM and DEX chains were swollen by water and stabilized better D/P emulsions. However, above the volume phase transition temperature (VPTT ≈ 32 °C) of pNIPAM the microgels shrunk and stabilized better P/D emulsions. At all temperatures, excess microgels partitioned more to the PEO phase. The change in structure and interparticle interaction induced by heating can be exploited to control the W/W emulsion stability.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions, which are emulsions stabilized by colloidal particles, are being increasingly positioned as novel strategies to develop innovative food product solutions. In this context, the present work aims to develop Pickering emulsions stabilized by natural-based curcumin-loaded particles produced by the solid dispersion technique as promising mayonnaise-like food sauce alternatives. Two particle formulations (KC1 and KC2) were produced using k-carrageenan as the matrix material and different curcumin contents, then employed in the preparation of three Pickering emulsion formulations comprising different oil fractions (φ) and particle concentrations (KC1 φ 0.4 (4.7%), KC2 φ 0.4 (4.7%) and KC2 φ 0.6 (4.0%)). The creaming index tests accompanied by the optical microscopy analysis evidenced the good stability of the developed products for the tested period of 28 days. The final products were tested concerning color attributes, pH, oxidative stability, textural, and nutritional composition, and compared with two commercial mayonnaises (traditional and light products). Overall, the produced emulsions were characterized by a bright yellow color (an appealing attribute for consumers), an acidic pH (similar to mayonnaise), and a considerably improved oxidative stability, implying a foreseeable longer shelf life. The sauce KC1 φ 0.4 (4.7%) showed a similar texture to the light commercial mayonnaise, being a promising alternative to conventional sauces, holding a low-fat content and potentially added benefits due to the curcumin and virgin olive oil intrinsic properties.

Abstract
The starch-palmitic acid complex nanoparticles were prepared by Cyperus esculentus starch with enzymatic hydrolysis for different times and then complexed with palmitic acid. The FACE and 13C CP/MAS NMR analysis showed that there were more amylose molecules formed and complexed with palmitic acid when starch was treated by enzymatic hydrolysis for 4 h. With the enzymatic hydrolysis time increasing from 0 h to 4 h, the mean size of starch-palmitic acid complex nanoparticles increased from 500 ± 38.83 nm to 567.2 ± 22.32 nm, the size distribution became more uniform, and the crystallinity increased from 14.99% to 47.72%. The starch-palmitic acid complex nanoparticles could be used as a kind of stabilizers to stabilize Pickering emulsions. Rheological properties and storage stability of Pickering emulsions indicted that starch-palmitic acid complex nanoparticles can better stabilize. The starch-palmitic acid complex nanoparticles could be used as stabilizer of Pickering emulsion and encapsulation of bioactive compounds.

Abstract
This study aimed to fabricate food-grade Pickering emulsions stabilized by chitosan-phytic acid-β-cyclodextrin (CS-PA-CD) nanoparticles. The CS-PA-CD nanoparticles were characterized with FITR, XRD, and TGA to prove its successfully crosslinking, then characterized by DLS system and scanning electron microscopy showing the smallest average particle size was 434.2 ± 2.5 nm and it increased with the ratio of PA-CD to CS increasing. Pickering emulsions stabilized by CS-PA-CD nanoparticles was prepared and it showed the best stability at around pH 6. The particle concentration higher than 1.0% (w/v) and the oil fraction above 0.5% (v/v) could reach the emulsion stability. In addition, the Pickering emulsions were stable at various temperature (30–70 °C) and influenced by the certain change of ionic strength (0–500 mM). These CS-PA-CD Pickering emulsions showed great application in the formation of functional foods and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions are eco-friendly, stabilized by solid particles, and have an essential role in leading industries. Although Pickering emulations have found several applications, surprisingly few investigations have attempted to explore the effectiveness of various mechanical processes for its production. To fill these gaps, the present investigation comprehensively examined the application of various Pickering emulsion preparation processes such as rotor-stator homogenization emulsification (R-SH), ultrasonic emulsification, and their combined processes by using nano-silica particles. The influences of emulsification time and intensity on emulsion droplets' distribution were analyzed as indicative factors. The kerosene/water nano-silica Pickering emulsion was utilized for all assessments. The obtained results demonstrated that the main distribution peak of the emulsion prepared by R-SH occurred where the chord length was greater than 40 μm. Micro-scale nano-silica-aggregates generated large droplets, while the fine-emulsion fraction was significantly increased after ultrasonic treatment. The experimental results showed that the emulsion prepared only by ultrasound needed substantial power to form a Pickering emulsion since the oil phase was difficult to disperse in the water phase. Finally, it was concluded that preprocessing by R-SH could form a stable and uniform emulsion speedily, which is essential for ultrasound emulsion preparation.

Abstract
The gel properties of sodium alginate (SA) have been revealed to be strongly correlated with its ratio of D-mannuronate to L-guluronate (M/G ratio). Herein, we focused on SA with different M/G ratios to conduct an in-depth study on the effect of the M/G ratio difference on physicochemical stability and calcium release behavior of the Pickering emulsion stabilized by calcium carbonate (CaCO3). The oil phase was added to the aqueous phase, prepared by SA with different M/G ratios (2.23, 0.89, and 0.56) and CaCO3, for one-step shearing to obtain the E1, E2, and E3 emulsions, respectively. The results of the particle size, microstructure, long-term stability, rheological, and microrheological properties of the emulsions showed that the E3 emulsion, prepared by SA with a smaller M/G ratio, had a smaller particle size and has remained in a flow condition during the long-term storage, while the E1 and E2 emulsions had a gelation behavior and a stronger viscoelasticity. Moreover, the emulsion, as a liquid calcium supplement, is not only convenient for oral intake while meeting the calcium needs of the body, but also controls the release of Ca2+. The calcium release of the emulsions in a simulated gastric environment demonstrated that the calcium release ratio increased with the decrease of SA concentration, with the increase of M/G ratio, and with the decrease of oil phase volume.

Abstract
A novel multi-responsive surfactant (abbreviated as N+-8P8-N) was synthesized, in which one octyl trimethylamine group (quaternary ammonium) and one octyl dimethylamine group are connected to a benzene ring through ether bonds. This novel surfactant can stabilize conventional oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions alone, and O/W Pickering emulsions and novel oil-in-dispersion emulsions together with oppositely and similarly charged nanoparticles, respectively. In all cases rapid demulsification can be achieved through either pH or CO2/N2 triggers, by which the surfactant is reversibly converted between a normal cationic surfactant form (N+-8P8-N) and a strongly hydrophilic and surface-inactive bola form (N+-8P8-NH+). Notably, the bola form N+-8P8-NH+ dissolves in the aqueous phase alone or together with nanoparticles after demulsification without contamination of the oil phase, and the aqueous phase can be recycled many times triggered by pH or CO2/N2 in accordance with the principle of green chemistry. This newly designed re-usable smart surfactant is significant for the development of various temporarily stable emulsions, which are extensively applied in emulsion polymerization, new material synthesis, heterogeneous catalysis and oil transportation.

Abstract
Food-grade high internal-phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) stabilized by solid or colloidal particles with different advantages have attracted extensive attention nowadays. However, looking for new appropriate particle stabilizers is the common practice for HIPPEs preparation. It is crucial to find a new strategy for the development of functional HIPPEs with controllable properties. In this study, a high concentration of xanthan gum/lysozyme nanoparticles (XG/Ly NPs) was used for the preparation of HIPPEs for the first time. Visual observations, creaming index (CI), microstructure, and rheology tests were carried out to investigate the potential of XG/Ly NPs as HIPPEs stabilizers. Results indicated that XG/Ly NPs could stabilize oil droplets in the concentration range of 0.5-4% (w/v). The HIPPEs with a minimal particle concentration of 1% exhibited remarkable physical stability. Rheological measurements showed that a high stability of solid-like HIPPEs was successfully obtained with a higher concentration of XG/Ly NPs. Overall, the HIPPEs stabilized by different concentrations of XG/Ly NPs exhibited excellent rheological and structural properties, which might provide a feasible strategy for the development of functional emulsion systems with controllable structures.

Abstract
We report colloidally stable emulsions of thermotropic liquid crystals (LCs) that can detect the presence of amphiphilic analytes in aqueous environments. Our approach makes use of a Pickering stabilization strategy consisting of surfactant-nanoparticle complexes (SiO2/CnTAB, n = 8, 12, 16) that adsorb to aqueous/LC droplet interfaces. This strategy can stabilize LC emulsions against coalescence for at least 3 months. These stabilized LC emulsions also retain the ability to respond to the presence of model anionic, cationic, and nonionic amphiphiles (e.g., SDS, C12TAB, C12E4) in aqueous solutions by undergoing "bipolar-to-radial" changes in LC droplet configurations that can be readily observed and quantified using polarized light microscopy. Our results reveal these ordering transitions to depend upon the length of the hydrocarbon tail of the CnTAB surfactant used to form the stabilizing complexes. In general, increasing CnTAB surfactant tail length leads to droplets that respond at lower analyte concentrations, demonstrating that this Pickering stabilization strategy can be used to tune the sensitivities of the stabilized LC droplets. Finally, we demonstrate that these colloidally stable LC droplets can report the presence of rhamnolipid, a biosurfactant produced by the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Overall, our results demonstrate that this Pickering stabilization strategy provides a useful tool for the design of LC droplet-based sensors with substantially improved colloidal stability and new strategies to tune their sensitivities. These advances could increase the potential practical utility of these responsive soft materials as platforms for the detection and reporting of chemical and biological analytes.

Preparation of Ligand Brush Nanocapsules for Robust Self-Controlled Antimicrobial Activity with Low Cytotoxicity at Target pH and Humidity. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14020280.

Abstract
This study prepared nanocapsules (NCs) with excellent self-controlled antimicrobial activity at pH 6–7 and humidity 45–100%, conditions in which most bacterial and fungal strains thrive. The nanocapsule substrate (NC@SiO2) was 676 nm in diameter, and the ligand-grafted capsule (NC@SiO2-g-MAA) was 888 nm. The large surface area and outer ligand brush of the NCs induced a rapid, self-controlled antibacterial response in the pH and humidity conditions needed for industrial and medical applications. Ligand-brush NCs containing an anionic antimicrobial drug had a rapid release effect because of the repellent electrostatic force and swelling properties of the ligand brushes. Controlled release of the drug was achieved at pH 6 and humidity of 45% and 100%. As many carboxylic acid groups are deprotonated into carboxylic acids at pH 5, the NC@SiO2-g-MAA had a high negative charge density. Carboxylic acid groups are anionized (–COO−) at pH 6 and above and push each other out of the capsule, expanding the outer shell as in a polymer brush to create the release behavior. The surface potential of the NC intermediate (NC@SiO2-MPS) was −23.45 [mV], and the potential of the capsule surface decreased to −36.4 [mV] when the MAA ligand brushes were grafted onto the surface of the capsule intermediate. In an antimicrobial experiment using Escherichia coli, a clear zone of 13–20 mm formed at pH 6, and the E. coli was eradicated completely at pH 6 and pH 7 when the humidity was 100%.

Abstract
Soy-based yoghurt alternatives are nowadays preferred by consumers. However, they are often perceived as too firm or too soft, sandy, or fibrous. In order to improve this, fibres, especially as in form of microgel particles (MGP), and fats are added to the soy matrix to create a creamy mouthfeel. Both fat and pectin-based MGP can interact with each other and with the protein matrix, creating different microstructures. This can influence the rheological and tribological properties of plant-based protein gels. This works focuses on the effect droplet stabilisation (coconut oil) on the rheological and tribological behaviour of the fermented stirred soy protein gels. For this, fat droplets were stabilised with MGP, SPI, or a mixture of both. Whilst the rheological behaviour remained unchanged for all investigated samples, the tribology of the samples depended on the emulsifier used. The addition of fat decreased the traction coefficient compared to the reference samples without fat. Even though all samples had the same fat content and identical droplet sizes, differences were observed in their lubricating properties. Droplets stabilised solely with SPI presented the best lubricating properties, as indicated by the lowest traction coefficient. Samples stabilised with MGP (or in mixture with SPI) caused higher friction.

Abstract
An increasing global population and a sharply upward trajectory of per capita energy consumption continue to drive the demand for fossil fuels, which remain integral to energy grids and the global transportation infrastructure. The oil and gas industry is increasingly reliant on unconventional deposits such as heavy crude oil and bitumen for reasons of accessibility, scale, and geopolitics. Unconventional deposits such as the Canadian Oil Sands in Northern Alberta contain more than one-third of the world's viscous oil reserves and are vital linchpins to meet the energy needs of rapidly industrializing populations. Heavy oil is typically recovered from subsurface deposits using thermal recovery approaches such as steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD). In this perspective article, we discuss several aspects of materials science challenges in the utilization of heavy crude oil with an emphasis on the needs of the Canadian Oil Sands. In particular, we discuss surface modification and materials' design approaches essential to operations under extreme environments of high temperatures and pressures and the presence of corrosive species. The demanding conditions for materials and surfaces are directly traceable to the high viscosity, low surface tension, and substantial sulfur content of heavy crude oil, which necessitates extensive energy-intensive thermal processes, warrants dilution/emulsification to ease the flow of rheologically challenging fluids, and engenders the need to protect corrodible components. Geopolitical reasons have further led to a considerable geographic separation between extraction sites and advanced refineries capable of processing heavy oils to a diverse slate of products, thus necessitating a massive midstream infrastructure for transportation of these rheologically challenging fluids. Innovations in fluid handling, bitumen processing, and midstream transportation are critical to the economic viability of heavy oil. Here, we discuss foundational principles, recent technological advancements, and unmet needs emphasizing candidate solutions for thermal insulation, membrane-assisted separations, corrosion protection, and midstream bitumen transportation. This perspective seeks to highlight illustrative materials' technology developments spanning the range from nanocomposite coatings and cement sheaths for thermal insulation to the utilization of orthogonal wettability to engender separation of water-oil emulsions stabilized by endogenous surfactants extracted during SAGD, size-exclusion membranes for fractionation of bitumen, omniphobic coatings for drag reduction in pipelines and to ease oil handling in containers, solid prills obtained from partial bitumen solidification to enable solid-state transport with reduced risk of damage from spills, and nanocomposite coatings incorporating multiple modes of corrosion inhibition. Future outlooks for onsite partial upgradation are also described, which could potentially bypass the use of refineries for some fractions, enable access to a broader cross-section of refineries, and enable a new distributed chemical manufacturing paradigm.

Abstract
Investigation of the effect of the polymer synthesis method on physicochemical properties of sorbents is one of the topical problems in the chemistry of macromolecular compounds that has high scientific and practical interest. Determination of the optimal synthesis method will make it possible to create sorbents with physicochemical properties that led to the realization of effective sorption. In this work, we investigated the effect of synthesis methods (Pickering emulsion polymerization and precipitation polymerization in solution) of granular polymers based on 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate on physicochemical and sorption properties. The synthesis by Pickering emulsion polymerization led to improvement of the n-propyl alcohol diffusion into the polymer network and to the formation of more homogeneous and structurally stable polymer networks. Creating selective polymer networks by Pickering emulsion polymerization compared to precipitation polymerization in solution led to an increase in porosity, creation of more segregated surface of granules, improvement of binding sites availability at the temperature of 37 °C, and formation of the homogeneous sorption surface with high affinity to target molecules at 25 °C and 37 °C. Selective polymers synthesized by both polymerization methods had the largest values of available sorption surfaces areas for target molecules at 37 °C.

Carbohydr Polym 2022; 276:118745. [PMID: 34823777 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2021.118745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2021] [Revised: 09/15/2021] [Accepted: 10/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
A phase change material (PCM) has an ability to store and release a large amount of energy in a wide range of temperature by the latent heat of fusion upon melting and crystallization. Microencapsulation may protect PCM from undesirable reaction and leaching. Herein, we report the microencapsulation of n-hexadecane via oil-in-water Pickering emulsions stabilized by non-chemically modified cellulose nanofibrils (CNF). The maximum size of PCM-CNF microcapsules was 12 ± 3.4 μm in diameter. The surface coverage of the microcapsule by CNF was as high as 67%, consistent with porous morphology of the freeze-dried microcapsules. With 59% PCM loading, the PCM-CNF microcapsule exhibited 132.5 and 141.1 J/g as stored and released thermal energy, respectively. The microcapsule slurry showed a reversible change in storage modulus by one order of magnitude across the transition temperature of n-hexadecane. Combined results demonstrate the successful microencapsulation of PCM via CNF-based Pickering emulsions for a sustainable thermal energy storage material.

[PMID: 35053961 PMCID: PMC8774576 DOI: 10.3390/foods11020229] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Revised: 01/13/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Pickering high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) are gel-like concentrated emulsions that have the potential to be an alternative to partially hydrogenated oil (PHO). In this study, egg yolk granules (EYGs), natural complexes of protein and lipid isolated from egg yolk, were used as an emulsifier to prepare Pickering HIPEs. Gel-like HIPEs with an oil phase volume fraction of 85% and with an emulsifier concentration of only 0.5% could be prepared by using EYGs as an emulsifier. The EYGs were able to form stable HIPEs at NaCl ionic strengths over 0.2 M and at pH over 5.0 with NaCl ionic strength of 0.3 M. The EYGs, which could stabilize HIPEs, were easily to adsorb and cover the oil-water interface to form emulsion droplets with small particle size. In addition, interacting EYGs in the aqueous phase formed a continuous network structure, and the oil droplets packed closely, exhibiting high elasticity and shear thinning behavior. Furthermore, the formed HIPEs had suitable storage stability with no significant changes in appearance and microstructure after storage for 60 days. This work can transform traditional oils from liquid-like to solid-like by using EYGs to enrich food processing diversity and improve the storage stability of oils while reducing the intake of PHO and providing a healthier diet for consumers.

Approaches for Extracting Nanofibrillated Cellulose from Oat Bran and Its Emulsion Capacity and Stability. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14020327. [PMID: 35054733 PMCID: PMC8780780 DOI: 10.3390/polym14020327] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2021] [Revised: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The pretreatment process is an essential step for nanofibrillated cellulose production as it enhances size reduction efficiency, reduces production cost, and decreases energy consumption. In this study, nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) was prepared using various pretreatment processes, either chemical (i.e., acid, basic, and bleach) or hydrothermal (i.e., microwave and autoclave), followed by disintegration using high pressure homogenization from oat bran fibers. The obtained NFC were used as an emulsifier to prepare 10% oil-in-water emulsions. The emulsion containing chemically pretreated NFC exhibited the smallest oil droplet diameter (d32) at 3.76 μm, while those containing NFC using other pretreatments exhibited d32 values > 5 μm. The colors of the emulsions were mainly influenced by oil droplet size rather than the color of the fiber itself. Both NFC suspensions and NFC emulsions showed a storage modulus (G′) higher than the loss modulus (G″) without crossing over, indicating gel-like behavior. For emulsion stability, microwave pretreatment effectively minimized gravitational separation, and the creaming indices of all NFC-emulsions were lower than 6% for the entire storage period. In conclusion, chemical pretreatment was an effective method for nanofiber extraction with good emulsion capacity. However, the microwave with bleaching pretreatment was an alternative method for extracting nanofibers and needs further study to improve the efficiency.

[PMID: 35118110 PMCID: PMC8805515 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2021.812119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2021] [Accepted: 12/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a major n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) particularly involved in cognitive and cardiovascular functions. Due to the high unsaturation index, its dietary intake form has been considered to improve oxidation status and to favor bioaccessibility and bioavailability as well. This study aimed at investigating the effect of DHA encapsulated with natural whey protein. DHA was dietary provided as triacylglycerols to achieve 2.3% over total fatty acids. It was daily supplied to weanling rats for four weeks in omelet as food matrix, consecutively to a 6-hour fasting. First, when DHA oil was encapsulated, consumption of chow diet was enhanced leading to promote animal growth. Second, the brain exhibited a high accretion of 22.8% DHA, which was not improved by dietary supplementation of DHA. Encapsulation of DHA oil did not greatly affect the fatty acid proportions in tissues, but remarkably modified the profile of oxidized metabolites of fatty acids in plasma, heart, and even brain. Specific oxylipins derived from DHA were upgraded, such as Protectin Dx in heart and 14-HDoHE in brain, whereas those generated from n-6 PUFAs were mainly mitigated. This effect did not result from oxylipins measured in DHA oil since DHA and EPA derivatives were undetected after food processing. Collectively, these data suggested that dietary encapsulation of DHA oil triggered a more efficient absorption of DHA, the metabolism of which was enhanced more than its own accretion in our experimental conditions. Incorporating DHA oil in functional food may finally improve the global health status by generating precursors of protectins and maresins.

Surface Properties of Colloidal Particles Affect Colloidal Self-Assembly in Evaporating Self-Lubricating Ternary Droplets. ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2022; 14:2275-2290. [PMID: 34931807 PMCID: PMC8763378 DOI: 10.1021/acsami.1c19241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2021] [Accepted: 11/29/2021] [Indexed: 05/05/2023]
Abstract
In this work, we unravel the role of surface properties of colloidal particles on the formation of supraparticles (clusters of colloidal particles) in a colloidal Ouzo droplet. Self-lubricating colloidal Ouzo droplets are an efficient and simple approach to form supraparticles, overcoming the challenge of the coffee stain effect in situ. Supraparticles are an efficient route to high-performance materials in various fields, from catalysis to carriers for therapeutics. Yet, the role of the surface of colloidal particles in the formation of supraparticles using Ouzo droplets remains unknown. Therefore, we used silica particles as a model system and compared sterically stabilized versus electrostatically stabilized silica particles─positively and negatively charged. Additionally, we studied the effect of hydration. Hydrated negatively charged silica particles and sterically stabilized silica particles form supraparticles. Conversely, dehydrated negatively charged silica particles and positively charged amine-coated particles form flat film-like deposits. Notably, the assembly process is different for all the four types of particles. The surface modifications alter (a) the contact line motion of the Ouzo droplet and (b) the particle-oil and particle-substrate interactions. These alterations modify the particle accumulation at the various interfaces, which ultimately determines the shape of the final deposit. Thus, by modulating the surface properties of the colloidal particles, we can tune the shape of the final deposit, from a spheroidal supraparticle to a flat deposit. In the future, this approach can be used to tailor the supraparticles for applications such as optics and catalysis, where the shape affects the functionality.
