Food Chem X 2024; 23:101689. [PMID: 39157656 PMCID: PMC11327432 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101689] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 07/18/2024] [Accepted: 07/21/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Lycopene, a carotenoid with numerous physiological benefits, particularly in its Z-isomer form, faces challenges in its application due to low chemical stability. To address this limitation, high internal phase emulsion was successfully synthesized using ovalbumin-chitosan complexes. The aim was to enhance the stability of lycopene including Z-lycopene. The solubility, particle size, ζ-potential and uniformity of the mixture were dependent on pH value and biopolymer proportion. Notably, optimal ovalbumin-chitosan complex formation occurred at pH 2.5 with a ratio of 4:1 resulting in the highest solubility and optimal uniformity which contributed to its superior emulsification properties. Evaluation of encapsulating efficiency and loading amount revealed 98.19% and 1.7661 mg/g respectively for lycopene in ovalbumin-chitosan stabilized emulsions, inhibiting the transformation from Z-lycopene to (all-E)-lycopene. The encapsulated lycopene possessed UV stability where retention rate remained high at 81.86%. The retention rate was up to 65.37% and 41.82% at 45 °C and 80 °C, respectively.

Abstract
This study involved the preparation of nanoparticles by combining oxidized starch (OS) with xanthan gum (XG), and emulsions were prepared from this nanoparticle. The physical and chemical characteristics, as well as the emulsification properties of oxidized starch-xanthan gum composite nanoparticles (OGNP), were analyzed. The findings revealed that the OGNP retained spherical shape after the addition of XG, although their diameter increased from approximately 50-150 to 200-400 nm. Zeta potential decreased with XG content. Moreover, emulsions prepared from OGNP exhibited outstanding thermal stability, also showing enhanced storage stability. In addition, emulsions had different rheological properties at different pH values. The apparent viscosity and shear stress of emulsions under alkaline conditions were lower than that of neutral conditions. NaCl increased the apparent viscosity of OGNP-stabilized emulsions while reducing their thermal stability. The nanoparticles prepared in this study have efficient emulsification properties and can extend the application of OS.

Abstract
It remains a big challenge to fabricate low / medium internal phase gel emulsion for the safe wound dressing with low stimulation to the skin. Herein, utilizing the self-assembly and gelation of amphiphilic herbal small molecule-glycyrrhizic acid (GA) derived from traditional Chinese medicine, a new type of supramolecular gel emulsion (SGE) with antibacterial activity and low / medium internal phase was proposed. In the SGE, the oil droplets were stabilized by the nanofibers self-assembled from GA, and the SGE was formed by the supramolecular assembly of GA nanofibers in the presence of Pickering emulsions. As a result, under low / medium internal phase (φ = 30-50 %), SGEs could be readily prepared. Antibacterial tests demonstrated that the growth of gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) could be effectively inhibited by the SGE. Additionally, compared to high internal phase SGE, SGE with φ = 50 % displayed lower cytotoxicity and a positive impact on the healing process of infectious diabetic wounds. This work provided a novel approach for constructing low / medium internal phase gel emulsion via herbal small molecule-based supramolecular assembly.

Abstract
The molecular structures of starch and sugar/sugar alcohol are recognized as critical determinants of starch pasting and retrogradation properties. However, their combined effects on these properties remain elusive. This study for the first time examined the pasting and retrogradation properties of nine starches with diverse molecular structures, both with and without the addition of glucose, sucrose, isomaltose, isomalt, and sorbitol. The presence of sugar/sugar alcohol significantly enhanced starch pasting viscosity. In particular, the variations of the peak viscosity of wheat starch were more pronounced than other starches, possibly due to its distinct molecular structures. The changes in melting temperatures and enthalpy of retrograded starches were complex, varying depending on the type of starch and sugar/sugar alcohol used. For example, the melting peak temperature ranged from 56.45 °C (TS) to 61.9 °C (WMS), and the melting enthalpy ranged from 0.16 J/g (TS) to 5.6 J/g (PES). The micromorphology of retrograded starch revealed agglomeration and needle-like structures, instead of a network structure, after the addition of glucose and sorbitol, respectively. Correlations between starch molecular structure and pasting properties remained largely unchanged, while the relationship between starch molecular structure and retrogradation properties exhibited notable variations after the addition of sugars or sugar alcohols. These findings help a better understanding of the effects of starch molecular structure and the presence of sugar/sugar alcohol on starch pasting and retrogradation properties.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions and foams as well as capillary suspensions are becoming increasingly more popular as inks for 3D printing. However, a lack of understanding of the bulk rheological properties needed for their application in 3D printing is potentially stifling growth in the area, hence the timeliness of this review. Herein, we review the stability and bulk rheology of these materials as well as the applications of their 3D-printed products. By highlighting how the bulk rheology is tuned, and specifically the inks storage modulus, yield stress and critical balance between the two, we present a rheological performance map showing regions where good prints and slumps are observed thus providing clear guidance for future ink formulations. To further advance this field, we also suggest standard experimental protocols for characterizing the bulk rheology of the three types of ink: capillary suspension, Pickering emulsion and Pickering foam for 3D printing by direct ink writing.

Abstract
For conventional emulsions used to encapsulate easily degradable bioactive compounds, achieving small droplet size and high encapsulation capacity is a challenging. Pickering emulsions stabilized by self-aggregated chitosan particles may offer high encapsulation efficiency due to the robust mechanical barrier formed by solid particles adsorbed at the oil-water interface. Therefore, the effects of pH, chitosan concentration, oil volume fraction, homogenization pressure, and homogenization cycle on the stability of chitosan Pickering emulsions and the degradation of β-carotene were investigated. Effective interfacial adsorption of chitosan nanoparticles and moderate homogenization intensity facilitated the formation of small emulsion droplets. Unlike conventional emulsions, chitosan Pickering emulsions with smaller droplets provided enhanced protection for β-carotene. This enhancement was primarily attributed to the improved interfacial coverage of chitosan nanoparticles with smaller droplet sizes, which was advantageous for β-carotene protection. The optimal conditions for preparing β-carotene-loaded chitosan Pickering emulsions were as follows: pH 6.5, chitosan concentration of 1.0 wt%, oil volume fraction of 20 %, homogenization pressure of 90 MPa, and 6 homogenization cycles. These findings indicate that chitosan Pickering emulsions are well-suited for encapsulating β-carotene with both small droplet size and high encapsulation efficiency.

Abstract
The microencapsulation of polysaturated fatty acids by spray drying remains a challenge due to their susceptibility to oxidation. In this work, antioxidant Pickering emulsions were attempted as feeds to produce oxidation stable tuna oil microcapsules. The results indicated that the association between chitosan (CS) and ovalbumin (OVA) was a feasible way to fabricate antioxidant and wettable complexes and a high CS percentage favored these properties. The particles could yield tuna oil Pickering emulsions with enhanced oxidation stability through high-pressure homogenization, which were successfully spray dried to produce microcapsules with surface oil content of 8.84 % and microencapsulation efficiency of 76.65 %. The microcapsules exhibited significantly improved oxidation stability and their optimum peroxide values after storage at 50 °C, 85 % relative humidity, or natural light for 15 d were 48.67 %, 60.07 %, and 39.69 % respectively lower than the powder derived from the OVA-stabilized emulsion. Hence, Pickering emulsions stabilized by the CS/OVA polyelectrolyte complexes are potential in the production of oxidation stable polyunsaturated fatty acid microcapsules by spray drying.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Poor storage stability and oxidative deterioration are the common drawbacks of edible oils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). We hypothesized that the natural zein/tannic acid self-assembly nanoparticles (ZT NPs) could be employed as stabilizers to anchor at the oil-water interface, thus constructing Pickering emulsion gel (PKEG) system for three types of PUFA-rich oils, soybean oil (SO), fish oil (FO) and cod liver oil (CLO), to improve the storage and oxidation stability. EXPERIMENTS ZT NPs were prepared by the anti-solvent coprecipitation method, and the three-phase contact angle, FT-IR, and XRD were mainly characterized. To observe the shell-core structure and oil-water interface details of SO/FO/CLO PKEGs by confocal laser scanning microscope and cryo-scanning electron microscope. Accelerated oxidation of FO was performed to assess the protective effect of PKEG on lipids. FINDINGS The SO, FO, and CLO PKEGs stabilized by 2 % ZT NPs, with oil fraction (φ = 0.5-0.6), were obtained. PKEGs show high viscoelasticity, clear shell-core structure spatial network structure, and ideal storage stability. Under accelerated oxidation, the degree of oxidative rancidity of FO PKEG was obviously lower than that of free FO. Overall, this work opens up new possibilities for using natural PKEG to prevent oxidative deterioration and prolong the shelf-life of PUFA-rich oils.

Abstract
Food industry is increasingly using functional ingredients to improve the food product quality. Lipid-containing functional ingredients are important sources of nutrients. This review examines the current state of emulsification and stabilisation technologies for incorporating lipophilic functional ingredients into food systems. Lipophilic functional ingredients, such as omega-3 fatty acids, carotenoids, and fat-soluble vitamins, offer numerous health benefits but present challenges due to their limited solubility in water-based food matrices. Emulsification techniques enable the dispersion of these ingredients in aqueous environments, facilitating their inclusion in a variety of food products. This review highlights recent advances in food emulsion formulation, emulsification methods and stabilisation techniques which, together, improve the stability and bioavailability of lipophilic compounds. The role of various emulsifiers, stabilizers, and encapsulation materials in enhancing the functionality of these ingredients is also explored. Furthermore, the review discusses different stabilisation techniques which can yield in emulsion in a solid or liquid state. By providing a comprehensive overview of current technologies, this review aims to guide future research and application in the development of functional foods enriched with lipophilic ingredients.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions stabilized by solid particles are more stable and environmentally friendly compared to traditional surfactants. Herein, a series of Chitosan-g-Poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) (CS-g-PNVCL) microgel particles were synthesized via a free radical surfactant-free emulsion copolymerization and the obtained particles were used to stabilize Pickering emulsions. It is found that the ratio (CS/PNVCL = 60 wt%) was optimal to produce Pickering emulsions. The microstructures of Pickering emulsions can maintain for 60 days at room temperature and this long-term stability is attributed to the CS-g-PNVCL microgel particles adsorbed at the oil-water interface. The Pickering emulsions displayed thermo-responsive characteristics when exposed to environmental stimuli. The emulsions became destabilized with an increase in pH and temperature. The droplets turned unstable and irregular due to excessive NaCl concentration, caused by electrostatic repulsion between the microgel particles. This study presents a novel way to form smart and uniform Pickering emulsions with the application potential in food, cosmetics, and drug delivery, etc.

Abstract
The stabilization of Pickering emulsions using micro/nanoparticles has gained significant attention due to their wide range of potential applications in industries such as cosmetics, food, catalysis, tissue engineering, and drug delivery. There is a growing demand for the development of environmentally friendly micro/nanoparticles to create stable Pickering emulsions. Naturally occurring polysaccharides like pectin offer promising options as they can assemble at oil/water interfaces. This polysaccharide is considered a green candidate because of its biodegradability and renewable nature. The physicochemical properties of micro/nanoparticles, influenced by fabrication methods and post-modification techniques, greatly impact the characteristics and applications of the resulting Pickering emulsions. This review focuses on recent advancements in Pickering emulsions stabilized by pectin-based micro/nanoparticles, as well as the application of functional materials in delivery systems, bio-based films and 3D printing using these emulsions as templates. The effects of micro/nanoparticle properties on the characteristics of Pickering emulsions and their applications are discussed. Additionally, the obstacles that currently hinder the practical implementation of pectin-based micro/nanoparticles and Pickering emulsions, along with future prospects for their development, are addressed.

Abstract
The long-term application of plant essential oils in food preservation coatings is limited by their poor water solubility and high volatility, despite their recognized synergistic antimicrobial effects in postharvest fruit preservation. To overcome these limitations, a Pickering emulsion loaded with thyme essential oil (TEO) was developed by utilizing hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions to induce cross-linking of chitosan particles. This novel emulsion was subsequently applied in the postharvest storage of strawberries. The shear-thinning behavior (flow index <1) and elastic gel-like characteristics of the emulsion made it highly suitable for spray application. Regarding TEO release, the headspace concentration of TEO increased from 0.21 g/L for pure TEO to 1.86 g/L after two instances of gas release due to the stabilizing effect of the chitosan particles at the oil-water interface. Notably, no phase separation was observed during the 10-day storage of the emulsion. Consequently, the emulsion was successfully employed for the postharvest storage of strawberries, effectively preventing undesirable phenomena such as weight loss, a decrease in firmness, an increase in pH, and microbial growth. In conclusion, the developed Pickering emulsion coating exhibits significant potential for fruit preservation applications, particularly for extending the shelf life of strawberries.

Abstract
Phase change microcapsules are known for their latent heat storage capability. However, the efficient absorption and utilization of solar energy by these microcapsules remains a significant challenge. In this study, we successfully prepared composite phase change microcapsules containing ZnO-Ag nanospheres, chitosan, and paraffin. These microcapsules demonstrated remarkable photothermal conversion efficiency. ZnO was found to effectively absorb ultraviolet light, while the plasmonic resonance of Ag was utilized to absorb and make use of light energy in the visible region. Moreover, due to the synergistic absorption and reflection of electromagnetic waves by ZnO-Ag nanoparticles and graphene, the well-dispersed chitosan/ZnO-Ag composite microcapsules and graphene in the fabric coating demonstrated exceptional electromagnetic shielding performance. In addition, the coated fabric based on composite microcapsules exhibited excellent antibacterial properties, effectively inhibiting the growth of bacteria such as S. aureus and E. coli. This antibacterial performance adds to their potential applications in various fields. These multifunctional phase change microcapsules offer vast potential for the effective utilization of solar energy, serving as efficient photothermal conversion and energy storage materials.

Study on stabilized mechanism of high internal phase Pickering emulsions based on commercial yeast proteins: Modulating the characteristics of Pickering particle via sonication. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 104:106843. [PMID: 38471387 PMCID: PMC10944291 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106843] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
The primary significance of this work is that the commercial yeast proteins particles were successfully used to characterize the high internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs). The different sonication time (0,3,7,11,15 min) was used to modulate the structure and interface characteristics of yeast proteins (YPs) that as Pickering particles. Immediately afterward, the influence of YPs particles prepared at different sonication time on the rheological behavior and coalescence mechanism of HIPPEs was investigated. The results indicate that the YPs sonicated for 7 min exhibited a more relaxed molecular structures and conformation, the smallest particle size, the highest H0 and optimal amphiphilicity (the three-phase contact (θ) was 88.91°). The transition from extended to compact conformations of YPs occurred when the sonication time exceeded 7 min, resulting in an augmentation of size of YPs particles, a reduction in surface hydrophobicity (H0), and an elevation in hydrophilicity. The HIPPEs stabilized by YPs particles sonicated for 7 min exhibited the highest adsorption interface protein percentage and a more homogeneous three-dimensional (3D) protein network, resulting in the smallest droplet size and the highest storage (G'). The HIPPEs sample that stabilized by YPs particles sonicated for 15 min showed the lowest adsorption protein percentage. This caused a reduction in the thickness of its interface protein layer and an enlargement in the droplet diameter (D [3,2]). It was prone to droplet coalescence according to the equation used to evaluate the coalescence probability of droplets (Eq (2)). And the non-adsorbed YPs particles form larger aggregation structures in the continuous phase and act as "structural agents" in 3D protein network. Therefore, mechanistically, the interface protein layer formed by YPs particles sonicated 7 min contributed more to HIPPEs stability. Whereas the "structural agents" contributed more to HIPPEs stability when the sonication time exceeded 7 min. The present results shed important new light on the application of commercial YPs in the functional food fields, acting as an available and effective alternative protein.

Abstract
The potential utilization of starch as a particle-based emulsifier in the preparation of Pickering emulsions is gaining interest within the food industry. Starch is an affordable and abundant functional ingredient, which makes it an excellent candidate for the stabilization of Pickering emulsions. This review article focuses on the formation, stabilization, and properties of Pickering emulsions formulated using starch-based particles and their derivatives. First, methods of isolating and modifying starch-based particles are highlighted. The key parameters governing the properties of starch-stabilized Pickering emulsions are then discussed, including the concentration, size, morphology, charge, and wettability of the starch-based particles, as well as the type and size of the oil droplets. The physicochemical mechanisms underlying the ability of starch-based particles to form and stabilize Pickering emulsions are also discussed. Starch-based Pickering emulsions tend to be more resistant to coalescence than conventional emulsions, which is useful for some food applications. Potential applications of starch-stabilized Pickering emulsions are reviewed, as well as recent studies on their gastrointestinal fate. The information provided may stimulate the utilization of starch-based Pickering emulsions in food and other industries.

Abstract
The 3D printability of myofibrillar proteins (MP)-based high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) is a concern. This study investigated the influence of chitosan (CS) concentrations (0-1.5 wt%) on the physicochemical properties, microstructure, rheological properties, and stability of MP-based HIPEs. Results showed that the interaction between MP and CS efficiently modulated the formation of HIPEs by modifying interfacial tension and network structure. The addition of CS (≤ 0.9 wt%, especially at 0.6 wt%) acted as a spatial barrier, filling the network between droplets, which triggered electrostatic repulsion between CS and MP particles, enhancing MP's interfacial adsorption capacity. Consequently, droplet sizes decreased, emulsion stability increased, and HIPEs became more stable during freeze-thaw cycles, centrifugation, and heat treatment. The rheological analysis further demonstrated that the low energy storage modulus (G', 330.7 Pa) of MP-based HIPEs exhibited sagging and deformation during the self-supporting phase. However, adding CS (0.6 wt%) significantly increased the G' (1034 Pa) of MP-based HIPEs. Conversely, increasing viscosity and spatial resistance attributed to CS (> 0.9 wt%) noticeably caused larger droplet sizes, thereby diminishing the printability of MP-based HIPEs. These findings provide a promising strategy for developing high-performance and consumer-satisfaction 3D printing inks using MP-stabilized HIPEs.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) based nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated via an ionic gelation reaction modified by flaxseed gum (FG) or sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP). The average particle size, morphology, interfacial tension, and wettability of NPs were characterized. The particle size of CS-STPP-HA (hyaluronic acid)-FA (ferulic acid) NPs and CS-FG-HA-FA NPs was 400.8 nm and 262.4 nm, respectively under the optimized conditions of CS/STPP = 5:1 (w/w) or CS/FG = 1:1 (v/v) with HA concentration of 0.25 mg/mL and FA dosage of 25 μM. FG acted as a good alternative for STPP to form particles with CS in stabilizing Pickering emulsion with an internal diacylglycerol (DAG) phase of 50-80 % (v/v). The complex nanoparticles had high surface activity and contact angle close to 90 °C, being able to tightly packed at the droplet surface. The emulsions had high thermal, ionic and oxidative stability. With the aid of moisturizing polysaccharides and DAG oil, the emulsions had a good sustained-release ability for FA with deeper penetration and retention into the dermis of the skin. Thus, FG and HA-based NPs serve as green vehicles for the fabrication of novel Pickering emulsions and possess great potential to be applied as a delivery system for lipophilic active agents in functional food and cosmetic products.

Abstract
The interactions between carboxymethyl cellulose sodium and proteins can regulate the interfacial and rheological properties of HIPEs, which plays a leading role in the stabilities of HIPEs. This article prepared various ratios of soluble soy protein isolate/carboxymethyl cellulose sodium (SPI/CMC) complexes in different proportions and examined the impact of various ratios of complexes on the structure and interface properties of complexes systems. Additionally, it explored the co-emulsification mechanism of HIPEs using SPI and CMC. At appropriate ratios of SPI/CMC, SPI and CMC mainly combine through non covalent binding and form complexes with smaller particle sizes and stronger electrostatic repulsion. The interfacial properties indicated that adding appropriate CMC increased the pliability and reduced the interfacial tension, while also enhancing the wettability of SPI/CMC complexes. At the ratio of 2:1, the SPI/CMC complexes-stabilized HIPPEs exhibited smaller oil droplets size, tighter droplet packing, and thicker interfacial film through the bridging of droplets and the generation of stronger gel-like network structures to prevent the coalescence/flocculation of droplets. These results suggested that the appropriate ratios of SPI/CMC can improve the physical stability of HIPEs by changing the structure and interface characteristics of the SPI/CMC complexes. This work provided theoretical support for stable HIPEs formed with protein-polysaccharide complexes.

With the presence of amino groups, chitosan can form a complex with other compounds and also enter the vascular system of plants and lead to the activation of metabolic-physiological pathways of plants. This polymeric compound can bond with other natural polymers and in combination with fertilizers and nutritional elements, on the one hand, it can provide the nutritional needs of the plant and on the other hand, it also helps to improve the soil texture. Chitosan nanomaterials as a Next-generation fertilizers act as plant immune system enhancers through slow, controlled, and targeted delivery of nutrients to plants. Chitosan can assist agricultural researchers and has become an ideal and effective option with its many applications in various fields.

Abstract
Crosslinking of chitosan chains in dilute solution by natural crosslinker genipin leads to biocompatible nanogels. Here we investigated the reaction kinetics between chitosan and genipin in a 200 mM acetate buffer at 37 °C, and the structural and conformational evolutions of the nanogels during the crosslinking reaction by multi detection asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4). Upon crosslinking by genipin, the z-average hydrodynamic radius Rhz of the chitosan chains increased from 26 nm to 130 nm, while the weight average molar mass Mw increased from 2.0 × 105 g/mol to 1.8 × 107 g/mol. The crosslinking reaction appeared to be first-order and size-dependent. In particular, the intrachain crosslinking reaction was preferentially for nanogels having the larger size, leading to formation of branched chains/nanogels having a wide range of molar masses between 106 and 108 g/mol but a similar radius of gyration Rg ∼ 40 nm. For the largest nanogel fractions with M > 2.0 × 108 g/mol, both Rg and Rh showed a scaling relation with exponent 1/3 and a structure parameter Rg/Rh = 0.74, as expected for the hard sphere particle. The reaction was accompanied by a reduction of charge density and an increase in hydrophobicity of chitosan nanogels, which plays a key role in the formation of uniform size nanogels with chain density ρ(Rh) up to 0.45 g/cm3.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive/smart drug delivery systems (DDSs), particularly those that use temperature as a stimuli-response factor to activate drug release, are the subject of recent research. A phase change material (PCM) is a popular thermally responsive material that can be used as a drug carrier and only when the system temperature is above the phase change point is the drug released following the phase change material changing from solid to liquid. In this study, a novel NIR light-triggered temperature-sensitive drug delivery system is developed for controllable release of acyclovir (ACV). For this purpose, a mixture of a phase change material (T38) and an ACV compound is first emulsified with copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) as a Pickering stabilizer and a photothermal conversion material, and then encapsulated with SiO2 to form a photothermal stimuli-responsive delivery system. This system shows a uniform spherical shape with a well-distinct core-shell structure, and is further experimentally proven to be able to controllably release drugs with solid-liquid transition of the phase change carrier upon temperature change. These results indicate that cumulative release of ACV can reach 51.2% at 40 °C within 20 hours, which is much higher than 27.3% release achieved below the melting point of T38. In addition, CuO NPs with excellent photothermal conversion ability endow the system with precisely controllable drug delivery via NIR light stimulation, where the cumulative drug release can reach 83.6% after 7 cycles of light stimulation, allowing controlled release at a specific time or location.

Abstract
Chitosan and its derivatives are widely used in food packaging, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical, textile, paper, agriculture, and environmental industries. However, the flexibility of chitosan films is extremely poor, which limits its relevant applications to a large extent. In this paper, chitosan/sorbitol/nano-silica (CS/sorbitol/SiO2) composite films were prepared by the casting film method using chitosan, sorbitol, Tween-80 and nano-SiO2 as raw materials. The structure of the films was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, electron scanning microscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis. The effects of sorbitol and nano-silica dosage on the mechanical properties, thermal properties and water vapor barrier properties of the composite film were investigated. The results show that with the gradual increase in sorbitol (≤75 wt %), the elongation at the break of chitosan/sorbitol films significantly increased. When the addition of sorbitol was 75 wt %, the elongation at break of the chitosan/sorbitol composite film was 13 times higher than that of the chitosan film. Moreover, nano-SiO2 can further improve the mechanical properties and thermal stability of the chitosan/sorbitol composite films. When the amount of nano-silica was 4.5 wt %, the composite film became more flexible, with a maximum elongation of 90.8% (which is 14 times that of chitosan film), and its toughness increased to 10.52 MJm-3 (which is 6 times that of chitosan film). This study balances the tensile strength and elongation at break of the composite films by adding a plasticizer and nano-filler, providing a reference for the preparation of chitosan composites or their blending with other polymers, and has practical guiding significance for the industrial production of biomass plastics.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic composite phase change materials (PCMs) are promising in the fields of solar energy storage and building thermal management. However, combining inorganic with organic PCMs meets a great challenge. In the current work, a shape-stable hybrid emulsion gel (EGel/GO) is developed via Pickering emulsion polymerization, which seamlessly combines sodium acetate trihydrate (SAT) in the water phase with paraffin wax (PW) in the oil phase. The polymer dual-phase cross-linking in EGel/GO forms a supporting framework that effectively enhances the material's shape stability, slows the loss of crystalline water in hydrates, and reduces supercooling. The addition of graphene oxide (GO) enhances EGel/GO-0.5's optical absorption properties, resulting in photothermal conversion efficiency as high as 89.1%. Furthermore, EGel/GO not only has high latent heat of 225.08 J/g but also has almost no leakage and no phase separation. The Pickering emulsion polymerization method paves a broad avenue for combining organic with inorganic PCMs, which is an ideal choice for the effective utilization of solar energy and building energy storage.

Abstract
Although various researches evaluated the stability and drug loading efficiency of chitosan Pickering emulsion, few studies assessed the role and mechanism of emulsions in gut flora homeostasis. Thus, in the basics of our previously published natural and antimicrobial Pickering emulsions, the function of emulsion on the intestinal microbiota and inflammation response was explored in Kunming mice with peritonitis. The results showed that lipid/peptide nanoparticles emulsion (LPNE) and the chitosan peptide-embedded nanoparticles emulsion (CPENE) presented less collagen fiber than parasin I in peritoneal tissue, and CPENE could reduce peritoneal inflammation by decreasing the expression of NOD-, LRR- and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3). The CPENE showed better histological morphology with a smaller fibrosis area in the spleen. Moreover, CPENE, LPNE, and parasin I-conjugated chitosan nanoparticle emulsion (PCNE) groups can increase the abundance of ABC transporters, DNA repair, and recombination proteins, and improve gut microbial. Furthermore, the Pickering emulsion showed a better protection effect on the composition and function of intestinal microbiota by decreasing interleukin-1β secretion and assembly of the inflammasome of NLRP3. These results could provide evidence for intestinal microbiota homeostasis of chitosan Pickering emulsion in inflammation-related diseases.

Abstract
The physical and chemical properties of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) were regulated by physical crosslinking with chitosan particles (CSp). At a fixed concentration (0.5 wt%) of CNC, varying CSp concentration (0.02-0.5 wt%) influenced the morphologies and chemical properties of the obtained complex particles (CNC-CSp). The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and zeta potential confirmed the electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions between CSp and CNC. At a low CSp concentration (0.02-0.05 wt%), the charge shielding effect induced the formation of particle aggregation networks, thus showing increased viscosity, turbidity and size (153.4-2605.7 nm). At a higher CSp concentration (0.1-0.5 wt%), the hydrogen bonding interaction promoted CSp adsorption onto the surface of CNC, thus facilitating the dispersion of CNC-CSp due to electrostatic repulsion caused by surface-adsorbed CSp. In addition, CSp improved the thermal stability, hydrophobicity (41.87-60.02°) and rheological properties of CNC. Compared with CNC, CNC-CSp displayed a better emulsifying ability and emulsion stability, in which CSp could play a dual role (i.e., charge regulator and stabilizer). This study suggests that introducing CSp can improve the properties and application potentials of CNC as food colloids.

Abstract
On being exposed to water, cellulose paper swells and its mechanical properties become weak. In this study, natural wax with an average particle size of 12.3 μm extracted from banana leaves was mixed with chitosan to prepare coatings applied on paper surfaces. Chitosan efficiently dispersed banana leaf-extracted wax on paper surfaces. The mixed chitosan and wax coatings considerably influenced paper properties, including yellowness, whiteness, thickness, wettability, water and oil sorption, and mechanical properties. The coating induced hydrophobicity in the paper, resulting in a significant increase in the water contact angle from 65.1 ± 7.7° (uncoated paper) to 123.2 ± 2.1°, and a decrease in water absorption by ⁓64 % to 52.6 ± 1.9 %. The coated paper demonstrated an oil sorption capacity of 212.2 ± 2.8 %, which was ⁓43 % greater than that of the uncoated paper, and the tensile strength of the coated paper improved by 43 % under wet conditions compared to the uncoated paper. Additionally, a separation of oil in water was observed for the chitosan/wax coated paper. Based on these promising results, the paper coated with chitosan and wax could be used for direct-contact packaging applications.

Abstract
Although studies have shown that lactoferrin (LF) and fucoidan (FD) can be used to stabilize Pickering emulsions, there have been no studies on the stabilization of Pickering emulsions via the use of LF-FD complexes. In this study, different LF-FD complexes were obtained by adjusting the pH and heating the LF and FD mixture while using different mass ratios, and the properties of the LF-FD complexes were investigated. The results showed that the optimal conditions for preparing the LF-FD complexes were a mass ratio of 1:1 (LF to FD) and a pH of 3.2. Under these conditions, the LF-FD complexes not only had a uniform particle size of 133.27 ± 1.45 nm but also had good thermal stability (the thermal denaturation temperature was 110.3 °C) and wettability (the air-water contact angle was 63.9 ± 1.90°). The concentration of the LF-FD complexes and the ratio of the oil phase influenced the stability and rheological properties of the Pickering emulsion such that both can be adjusted to prepare a Pickering emulsion with good performance. This indicates that LF-FD complexes represent promising applications for Pickering emulsions with adjustable properties.

Abstract
Formulation of water-in-oil (W/O) Pickering emulsion (PE) for food applications has been largely restricted by the limited choices of food-grade Pickering emulsifiers. In this study, composite microgels made of chitosan and carrageenan were explored as a dual (pH and thermal) stimuli-responsive Pickering emulsifier for the stabilization of W/O PE. The chitosan-carrageenan (CS-CRG) composite microgels not only exhibited pH- and thermo-responsiveness, but also displayed enhanced lipophilicity as compared to the discrete polymers. The stability of the CS-CRG-stabilized W/O PE system (CS-CRG PE) was governed by CS:CRG mass ratio and oil fractions used. The CS-CRG PE remained stable at acidic pH and at temperatures below 40 °C. The instability of CS-CRG composite microgels at alkaline pH and at temperatures above 40 °C rendered the demulsification of CS-CRG PE. This stimuli-responsive W/O PE could unlock new opportunities for the development of stimuli-responsive W/O PE using food-grade materials.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions (PEs) have attracted attention in different fields, such as food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, mainly due to their good physical stability. PEs are a promising strategy to develop functional products since the particles’ oil and water phases can act as carriers of active compounds, providing multiple combinations potentiating synergistic effects. Moreover, they can answer the sustainable and green chemistry issues arising from using conventional emulsifier-based systems. In this context, this review focuses on the applicability of safe inorganic solid particles as emulsion stabilisers, discussing the main stabilisation mechanisms of oil–water interfaces. In particular, it provides evidence for hydroxyapatite (HAp) particles as Pickering stabilisers, discussing the latest advances. The main technologies used to produce PEs are also presented. From an industrial perspective, an effort was made to list new productive technologies at the laboratory scale and discuss their feasibility for scale-up. Finally, the advantages and potential applications of PEs in the food industry are also described. Overall, this review gathers recent developments in the formulation, production and properties of food-grade PEs based on safe inorganic solid particles.

Abstract
Chitosan with pH sensitivity and biocompatibility was selected to prepare chitosan nanoparticle-stabilized Pickering emulsion (CSPE). The flexibility of CSPE enables stress deformation when in contact with cell membranes, thereby mimicking the deformability of natural pathogens and facilitating their efficient uptake by cells. In the acidic environment of lysosomes, the amino groups of chitosan molecules are protonated, and the water solubility increases. CSPE transforms from particle-stabilized to polymer chain-stabilized, its subsequent swelling and proton accumulation lead to lysosome rupture. The experimental results evaluating CSPE as an adjuvant shows that CSPE could efficiently load antigens, promote endocytosis and antigen cross-presentation, recruit antigen-presenting cells at the injection site, boost T-cell activation, and enhance both humoral and cellular immune responses. In the prophylactic and therapeutic tumor models of E.G7-OVA lymphoma and B16-MUC1 melanoma, CSPE significantly inhibited tumor growth and prolonged the survival of mice. In summary, antigenic lysosomal escape resulted from the chitosan molecular state transition is the key to the enhancement of cellular immunity by CSPE, and CSPE is a promising vaccine adjuvant.

Abstract
Pickering emulsion is a potential substitute for animal fat due to high stability and solid-like properties. Therefore, the effect of replacing 25%-100% pork backfat with Pickering emulsion (75% corn oil volume fraction) stabilized by modified pea protein-chitosan composite particles on the quality of sausages was studied. All meat pastes exhibited a strong gel-like rheological character (G' > G"). The incorporation of Pickering emulsion in sausages enhanced the textural properties (hardness, springiness, chewiness, cohesiveness and resilience) and the uniformity and compactness of micromorphology, as well as suppressed the cooking loss and TBARS content. In particular, the sausages with a backfat substitution ratio of 100%, showing a similar overall sensory acceptability to the backfat sausage, revealed the best rheological properties, texture properties and micromorphology and the lowest cooking loss and fat oxidation (P < 0.05). The results showed that Pickering emulsion stabilized by modified pea protein-chitosan composite particles is a potential fat substitute for meat products with the desirable characteristics.

Abstract
Dextran (Dex) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based aqueous emulsions were stabilized using the self-assembled chitosan colloidal particles (CS CPs). Besides, the effects of pH, CS CPs concentration, polymer concentration, volume ratio of PEG solution to Dex solution, temperature, homogenizing speed and homogenizing time on the property of the W/W emulsions were investigated, respectively. In order to enhance the stability of the PEG-Dex emulsion, sodium tripolyphosphate was used to cross-link the CS CPs at the interface of emulsion droplets, which resulted in the stability duration for >1 year. Finally, the CS CPs were used as a support to immobilize urease and bovine serum albumin and a stabilizer to prepare W/W emulsion, which were then adopted as a catalysis system and as a spinning solution to fabricate drug-loaded nanofiber. This strategy potentially provides a new opportunity to encapsulate the active molecules at the water-water interface, and enrich the types of usable active molecules in the encapsulation in the W/W emulsions.

Abstract
Protein-based high internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) feature numerous multi-functionalities and widespread applications. However, the direct use of native proteins for the constructions of HIPPEs is limited since it is fragile under various conditions. Here, cold plasma was used to modify soy protein isolates (SPI) to improve their surficial properties. Meanwhile, proanthocyanidins (PA) were applied to interact with cold plasma-treated SPI to form complex. Furthermore, the well-prepared SPI-PA complex was used to construct novel HIPPEs. Results showed cold plasma treatment significantly improved the functionalities of SPI, which were confirmed by surface hydrophobicity (H0 < 500), sulfhydryl (SH) groups and spectral analysis. Further, the emulsification and oxidation resistance of cold plasma treated SPI were enhanced after forming complex with PA. Soybean oils can be stabilized by SPI-PA complexes to form HIPPEs with a lipid oxidation inhibition rate of > 65%, creaming index (CI) > 80%, excellent rheological properties and better stability compared with conventional emulsion systems. Overall, this SPI-PA complexes provides a unique approach to improve the emulsification and oxidation resistance to engineer HIPPEs with versatile applications.

Abstract
Chitosan is one of the valuable products obtained from crustacean waste. The unique characteristics of chitosan (antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory) have increased its application in various sectors. Besides unique biological properties, chitosan or chitosan-based compounds can stabilize emulsions. Nevertheless, studies have shown that chitosan cannot be used as an efficient stabilizer because of its high hydrophilicity. Hence, this review aims to provide an overview of recent studies dealing with improving the emulsifying properties of chitosan. In general, two different approaches have been reported to improve the emulsifying properties of chitosan. The first approach tries to improve the stabilization property of chitosan by modifying its structure. The second one uses compounds such as polysaccharides, proteins, surfactants, essential oils, and polyphenols with more wettability and emulsifying properties than chitosan's particles in combination with chitosan to create complex particles. The tendency to use chitosan-based particles to stabilize Pickering emulsions has recently increased. For this reason, more studies have been conducted in recent years to improve the stabilizing properties of chitosan-based particles, especially using the electrostatic interaction method. In the electrostatic interaction method, numerous research has been conducted on using proteins and polysaccharides to increase the stabilizing property of chitosan.

Abstract
Biopolymer electrostatic complexes are popular Pickering stabilizers whose structures greatly affect their interfacial properties. This study comprehensively demonstrated the interfacial adsorption and assembly of dissolved octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) starch (OSA-D)/chitosan (CS) electrostatic complexes with different structures through complementary characterization methods. We found that compared with single-component systems, OSA-D/CS complexes exhibited significantly increased wetting stability and adsorption rate to the interface, which was reinforced by molecular dynamics simulations. Their soft structures and the entanglement of molecular chains led to the formation of thick and highly viscoelastic multilayer adsorbed films, which greatly resisted deformation against shearing forces. The adsorption and assembly of the complexes were strongly influenced by OSA-D/CS ratios and pH, which could be related to the different interfacial interaction strengths. Overall, the electrostatic complexation, structural characteristics, and interfacial properties of OSA-D/CS complexes were well related, thereby providing valuable information for the regulation of controlled interfaces and bulk system properties.

Abstract
Chitosan is a marine-origin polysaccharide obtained from the deacetylation of chitin, the main component of crustaceans’ exoskeleton, and the second most abundant in nature. Although this biopolymer has received limited attention for several decades right after its discovery, since the new millennium chitosan has emerged owing to its physicochemical, structural and biological properties, multifunctionalities and applications in several sectors. This review aims at providing an overview of chitosan properties, chemical functionalization, and the innovative biomaterials obtained thereof. Firstly, the chemical functionalization of chitosan backbone in the amino and hydroxyl groups will be addressed. Then, the review will focus on the bottom-up strategies to process a wide array of chitosan-based biomaterials. In particular, the preparation of chitosan-based hydrogels, organic–inorganic hybrids, layer-by-layer assemblies, (bio)inks and their use in the biomedical field will be covered aiming to elucidate and inspire the community to keep on exploring the unique features and properties imparted by chitosan to develop advanced biomedical devices. Given the wide body of literature that has appeared in past years, this review is far from being exhaustive. Selected works in the last 10 years will be considered.

Abstract
Сomplexation of oligochitosan (OCHI) having the degree of acetylation (DA 26 %) with sodium caseinate (SC) at pH 5.8 and 7.2 is described and compared with the complexation of OCHI (DA 2 %) at pH 5.8. In the alkalescent medium, the complexation of OCHI (DA 26 %) is weaker and dualistic depending on SC concentration in the system. In the diluted alkalescent system, the formation of only soluble complexes is observed at OCHI/SC ratio ≤0.9. In the semi diluted one, the complexation results in the formation of insoluble complexes those composition changes symbatically with the OCHI/SC ratio in the system. At pH 5.8, OCHI/SC ratio in insoluble complexes remains the same regardless of OCHI/SC ratio in the solution. At pH 5.8, the electrostatic complexation weakens with an increase in DA and is completely suppressed at a high ionic strength. These results can be promising for construction of biodegradable protein/chitosan drug delivery systems.

Abstract
As an emulsifier, lignin exhibits excellent UV resistance on drug-loaded emulsion systems for drug delivery. However, due to the structural variation and complexity of lignins from various origins, their UV shielding performance varies with the techniques for lignin extraction, which impacts properties and the protection efficiency of lignin-based HIPEs (high internal phase emulsions). In this work, lignin nanoparticles, prepared from three lignin preparations of Eucalyptus, were used in HIPEs delivery systems to protect curcumin from degradation by UV radiation. Structures of the lignin preparations were characterized using 2D HSQC (heteronuclear single-quantum coherence) NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), 31P NMR, and GPC (gel permeation chromatography). The residual curcumin level after 36 h UV exposure in the nanolignin-based HIPEs was over 72 %, much higher than that (< 10 % after 24 h UV exposure) in the oil phase without lignin, indicating that the nanolignin-based HIPEs with enhanced UV shielding ability protect curcumin better. Of the three lignin preparations, AL (alkali lignin), with the lowest molecular weight, highest contents of phenolic hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, and highest S/G ratio, displayed the best anti-UV radiation ability and the most uniform nanoparticle size.

Abstract
This review provides a report on the properties and recent advances in the application of chitosan and chitosan-based materials in cosmetics. Chitosan is a polysaccharide that can be obtained from chitin via the deacetylation process. Chitin most commonly is extracted from cell walls in fungi and the exoskeletons of arthropods, such as crustaceans and insects. Chitosan has attracted significant academic interest, as well as the attention of the cosmetic industry, due to its interesting properties, which include being a natural humectant and moisturizer for the skin and a rheology modifier. This review paper covers the structure of chitosan, the sources of chitosan used in the cosmetic industry, and the role played by this polysaccharide in cosmetics. Future aspects regarding applications of chitosan-based materials in cosmetics are also mentioned.

Abstract
In this study, Pickering emulsions stabilized by chitosan (CS), chitosan-Laminaria japonica polyphenols (CP) and chitosan-Ascophyllum nodosum polyphenols (CB) were fabricated. This study also evaluated the stability of CS, CP, and CB under different environmental factors including pH (2-9), NaCl concentrations (0-500 mM), heat treatments (50-100 °C) and storage period (0-8 weeks). The characterization on interfacial layer of emulsion droplets demonstrated that macroalgal polyphenols could combined with the amorphous regions of chitosan particles through hydrogen bond and electrostatic interactions, providing stronger dual wettability with enhanced ability of interfacial layer in stabilizing Pickering emulsions. All three emulsions showed best droplet distribution, highest emulsion stability and specific surface area at pH 6 and 0 mM NaCl concentration as fresh emulsion. Moreover, CS, CP, and CB exhibited the rheological behaviour of pseudoplastic fluids at different pH and NaCl concentration. It should be noted that CP and CB exhibited higher emulsion stability than CS under a variety of environmental stresses. Overall, this research proved that chitosan-macroalgal polyphenol co-stabilized Pickering emulsion had enhanced stability against various environmental stimuli, which could be utilized as potential delivery and protection system for hydrophobic bioactive compounds.

Abstract
Iodized oil has an excellent X-ray imaging effect, but it shows poor embolization performance. When used as an embolic agent, it is easily washed off by the blood flow and eliminated from the body. Therefore, it is essential to use iodized oil in combination with solid embolic agents such as gelatin sponge or to perform multiple embolization procedures to achieve the therapeutic effect. In the present study, a poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide)-co-acrylic acid (PNCAA) temperature-sensitive nanogel was synthesized by emulsion polymerization; the nanogel was then emulsified with iodized oil to prepare a thermosensitive iodized oil Pickering gel emulsion (TIPE). The oil-water (O/W) ratio of an O/W emulsion system can reach 4 : 6. When injected into the body, TIPE transforms into a nonflowing coagulated state at physiological temperature; the iodized oil is locked in the emulsion structure, thereby achieving local embolization and continuous imaging effects, which not only retain the X-ray imaging effect of the iodized oil but also improve its embolization effect. Subsequently, we further evaluated renal artery embolization in a normal rabbit renal artery model, and the results showed that TIPE shows a long-term conformal embolization performance and excellent long-term X-ray imaging ability.

Pickering Emulsions Stabilized by Chitosan/Natural Acacia Gum Biopolymers: Effects of pH and Salt Concentrations. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14235270. [PMID: 36501665 PMCID: PMC9738950 DOI: 10.3390/polym14235270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2022] [Revised: 11/24/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, chitosan (CT) and naturally occurring acacia gum (AG) blends were employed as emulsifiers to form a series of emulsions developed from diesel and water. Effects of pH level (3, 5, 10, and 12) and various NaCl salt concentrations (0.25-1%) on the stability, viscosity, and interfacial properties of CT-(1%)/AG-(4%) stabilized Pickering emulsions were evaluated. Bottle test experiment results showed that the stability indexes of the CT/AG emulsions were similar under acidic (3 and 5) and alkaline (10 and 12) pH media. On the other hand, the effects of various NaCl concentrations on the stability of CT-(1%)/AG-(4%) emulsion demonstrated analogous behavior throughout. From all the NaCl concentrations and pH levels examined, viscosities of this emulsion decreased drastically with the increasing shear rate, indicating pseudoplastic fluid with shear thinning characteristics of these emulsions. The viscosity of CT-(1%)/AG-(4%) emulsion increased at a low shear rate and decreased with an increasing shear rate. The presence of NaCl salt and pH change in CT/AG solutions induced a transformation in the interfacial tension (IFT) at the diesel/water interface. Accordingly, the IFT values of diesel/water in the absence of NaCl/CT/AG (without emulsifier and salt) remained fairly constant for a period of 500 s, and its average IFT value was 26.16 mN/m. In the absence of salt, the addition of an emulsifier (CT-(1%)/AG-(4%)) reduced the IFT to 16.69 mN/m. When the salt was added, the IFT values were further reduced to 12.04 mN/m. At low pH, the IFT was higher (17.1 mN/M) compared to the value of the IFT (10.8 mN/M) at high pH. The results obtained will help understand the preparation and performance of such emulsions under different conditions especially relevant to oil field applications.
