Olsmats E, Rennie AR. Understanding Stabilization of Oil-in-Water Emulsions with Pea Protein─Studies of Structure and Properties. LANGMUIR : THE ACS JOURNAL OF SURFACES AND COLLOIDS 2024; 40:13386-13396. [PMID: 38904703 PMCID: PMC11223488 DOI: 10.1021/acs.langmuir.4c00540] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024]
Abstract
This study investigates the stability and structure of oil-in-water emulsions stabilized by pea protein. Of the wide range of emulsion compositions explored, a region of stability at a minimum of 5% w/v pea protein and 30-50% v/v oil was determined. This pea protein concentration is more than what is needed to form a layer covering the interface. X-ray scattering revealed a thick, dense protein layer at the interface as well as hydrated protein dispersed in the continuous phase. Shear-thinning behavior was observed, and the high viscosity in combination with the thick protein layer at the interface creates a good stability against creaming and coalescence. Emulsions in a pH range from acidic to neutral were studied, and the overall stability was observed to be broadly similar independently of pH. Size measurements revealed polydisperse protein particles. The emulsion droplets are also very polydisperse. Apart from understanding pea protein-stabilized emulsions in particular, insights are gained about protein stabilization in general. Knowledge of the location and the role of the different components in the pea protein material suggests that properties such as viscosity and stability can be tailored for various applications, including food and nutraceutical products.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:131846. [PMID: 38663702 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131846] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
To improve the compatibility of gelatin (GA) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), we investigated the effects of zein-pectin composite particles (ZCPs) with various zein/pectin ratios (1:0, 1:0.5, 1:1, 1:1.5, and 1:2) on the physical stability, microstructure, and rheological properties of the GA/HPMC water-water systems. With increasing pectin ratio, the particle size of the composite particles increased from 234.53 ± 1.48 nm to 1111.00 ± 26.91 nm, and their zeta potential decreased from 20.60 mV to below -34.77 mV. Macroscopic and microstructure observations indicated that pectin-modified ZCPs could effectively inhibit phase separation behavior between GA and HPMC. Compared to pure HPMC, the GA/HPMC water-water systems possessed a higher viscosity and dynamic modulus at room temperatures but lower gel temperatures (reduction of about 11 %). The viscosity and modulus of the water-water systems increased with increasing pectin ratio in ZCPs. However, the ratio had no impact on the gel-sol (sol-gel) transition temperatures (not statistically significant (P < 0.05)). This study may serve as a reference for advancing the processability of HPMC.

Abstract
Pickering emulsion is a type of emulsion that uses solid particles or colloidal particles as emulsifiers rather than surfactants to adhere at oil-water interface. Pickering emulsions have gathered significant research attention recently due to their excellent stability and wide range of potential uses compared to traditional emulsions. Major advancements have been made in development of innovative Pickering emulsions using different colloidal particles by various techniques including homogenization, emulsification and ultrasonication. Use of biopolymer particles gives Pickering emulsions a more escalating possibilities. In this review paper, we seek to present a critical overview of development in food-grade particles that have been utilized to create Pickering emulsions with a focus on techniques and application of Pickering emulsions. Particularly, we have evaluated protein, lipid, polysaccharide-based particles and microalgal proteins that have emerged in recent years with respect to their potential to stabilize and add novel functionalities to Pickering emulsions. Some preparation methods of Pickering emulsions in brief, applications of Pickering emulsions are also highlighted. Encapsulation and delivery of bioactive compounds, fat substitutes, film formation and catalysis are potential applications of Pickering emulsions. Pickering double emulsions, nutraceutical and bioactive co-delivery, and preparation of porous materials are among research trends of food-grade Pickering emulsions.

Abstract
Lipid oxidation constitutes the main source of degradation of lipid-rich foods, including food emulsions. The complexity of the reactions at play combined with the increased demand from consumers for less processed and more natural foods result in additional challenges in controlling this phenomenon. This review provides an overview of the insights acquired over the past two decades on the understanding of lipid oxidation in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions. After introducing the general structure of O/W emulsions and the classical mechanisms of lipid oxidation, the contribution of less studied oxidation products and the spatiotemporal resolution of these reactions will be discussed. We then highlight the impact of emulsion formulation on the mechanisms, taking into consideration the new trends in terms of emulsifiers as well as their own sensitivity to oxidation. Finally, novel antioxidant strategies that have emerged to meet the recent consumer's demand will be detailed. In an era defined by the pursuit of healthier, more natural, and sustainable food choices, a comprehensive understanding of lipid oxidation in emulsions is not only an academic quest, but also a crucial step towards meeting the evolving expectations of consumers and ensuring the quality and stability of lipid-rich food products.

Abstract
A map of stability for various water/oil/pea protein compositions has been plotted from the numerous reported results. Two clear regions of stability were identified. High internal oil phase emulsions with 70-80%, v/v oil content stabilized by total pea protein concentration <2.5%, w/v showed stability. Low oil content of 10-30%, v/v for a range of total pea protein concentrations >0.5%, w/v have also been identified as stable. Intermediate oil content and pea protein concentrations >4% w/v are unexplored regions and are likely to be areas of fruitful future research. The wide range of stability suggests that different stabilization mechanisms could be important for different compositions and careful consideration has to be taken to avoid oversimplification. Both stabilization with particles, i.e. Pickering emulsions, and protein unfolding have been suggested as mechanisms. The diverse way of describing stability makes it difficult to intercompare results in different studies. A summary of different oil types used have been presented and several properties such as dynamic viscosity, density, the dielectric constant and interfacial tension have been summarized for common vegetable oils. The type of vegetable oil and emulsion preparation techniques were seen to have rather little effect on emulsion stability. However, the different extraction methods and processing of the pea material had more effect, which could be attributed to changing composition of different proteins and to the states of aggregation and denaturing. Careful consideration has to be taken in the choice of extraction method and an increased understanding of what contributes to the stability is desirable for further progress in research and eventual product formulation.

Abstract
This study explores the impact of oil type, surfactant concentration, and production temperature on oleofoam properties. Oleofoams were prepared using different concentrations (5, 8, and 10 % w/w) of monoglyceride (MG) in olive, soybean, and sunflower oils at temperatures of 25 °C and 5 °C. The results indicate that higher surfactant concentrations and lower production temperatures enhance the stability, foamability, melting behavior, and hardness of the oleofoams, while minimizing oil drainage. Microscopic analysis reveals that lower production temperatures result in smaller bubble sizes in all oil blends which reduces oil loss and increases the hardness of the oleofoam. Also, oleofoams derived from different oils exhibit solid-like behavior. Among the oils studied, the oleofoam prepared with sunflower oil, at a concentration of 10 % MG and a production temperature of 5 °C, demonstrates superior properties. These findings provide valuable insights into optimizing oleofoam properties by controlling the oil type, surfactant concentration, and production temperature.

Abstract
Emulsions with reduced fat and natural stabilizers are currently prevalent. Herein, semisolid emulsions with an oil phase of 50 % were successfully prepared using cellulose nanofibrils from mushroom stipes as stabilizers. Cellulose nanofibrils obtained by high-pressure homogenization were dendritic-like and possessed a contact angle of 70.50 ± 0.41°. The rheological properties and stability of emulsions increased significantly as nanocellulose concentrations increased from 5 to 20 mg/mL, while nanocellulose at 25-30 mg/mL significantly reduced the storage stability and anti-lipid oxidation ability of emulsions. The microstructure of semisolid emulsions demonstrated that nanocellulose fibers at 20 mg/mL could stabilize emulsions by forming compact interfacial films around droplets and creating intensive bridging networks between neighboring droplets, while nanofibers at concentrations over 20 mg/mL easily clustered in the aqueous phase, making the droplets more susceptible to aggregation and demulsification. The results demonstrate that cellulose nanofibrils from mushroom byproducts have the potential to stabilize semisolid food-grade emulsions.

Abstract
This study provides a novel strategy for preparing bio-based antibacterial emulsions stabilized by cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). Antibacterial ε-polylysine (ε-PL) with a positive charge was introduced into the aqueous phase to modulate the interfacial behavior of CNCs via electrostatic interactions. Pickering emulsions containing ε-PL/CNCs (ε-PL 0.07-0.1 g/L) had significantly better stability, larger emulsion ratio, smaller emulsion droplet diameter, and superior antibacterial ability than emulsions stabilized by CNCs alone. This could be attributed to the formation of a CNC-dense layer at the interface in the continuous phase caused by a reduction of electrostatic repulsion after adding ε-PL. This was confirmed by zeta potential measurements, rheological properties, and bio-freezing scanning electron microscopy. In addition, cinnamaldehyde was introduced into the oil phase to further improve the antibacterial properties of the emulsion, thereby avoiding easy evaporation into water. Our findings provide an innovative solution for preparing bio-based antibacterial emulsions stabilized by ε-PL/CNCs, which will benefit the development of food, medicine, and cosmetic lotions.

Abstract
Polysaccharides constitute over 90% of the carbohydrate mass in nature, which makes them a promising feedstock for manufacturing sustainable materials. Polysaccharide particles (PSPs) are used as effective scavengers, carriers of chemical and biological cargos, and building blocks for the fabrication of macroscopic materials. The biocompatibility and degradability of PSPs are advantageous for their uses as biomaterials with more environmental friendliness. This review highlights the progresses in PSP applications as advanced functional materials, by describing PSP extraction, preparation, and surface functionalization with a variety of functional groups, polymers, nanoparticles, and biologically active species. This review also outlines the fabrication of PSP-derived macroscopic materials, as well as their applications in soft robotics, sensing, scavenging, water harvesting, drug delivery, and bioengineering. The paper is concluded with an outlook providing perspectives in the development and applications of PSP-derived materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemp protein isolates (HPIs), which provide a well-balanced profile of essential amino acids comparable to other high-quality proteins, have recently garnered significant attention. However, the underutilized functional attributes of HPIs have constrained their potential commercial applications within the food and agriculture field. This study advocates the utilization of dynamic-high-pressure-microfluidization (DHPM) for the production of stable high-internal-phase emulsions (HIPEs), offering an efficient approach to fully exploit the potential of HPI resources. RESULTS The findings underscore the effectiveness of DHPM in producing HPI as a stabilizing agent for HIPEs with augmented antioxidant activity. Microfluidized HPI exhibited consistent adsorption and anchoring at the oil-water interface, resulting in the formation of a dense and compact layer. Concurrently, the compression of droplets within HIPEs gave rise to a polyhedral framework, conferring viscoelastic properties and a quasi-solid behavior to the emulsion. Remarkably, HIPEs stabilized by microfluidized HPI demonstrated superior oxidative and storage stability, attributable to the establishment of an antioxidative barrier by microfluidized HPI particles. CONCLUSION This study presents an appealing approach for transforming liquid oils into solid-like fats using HPI particles, all without the need for surfactants. HIPEs stabilized by microfluidized HPI particles hold promise as emerging food ingredients for the development of emulsion-based formulations with enhanced oxidative stability, thereby finding application in the food and agricultural industries. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Motivated by the quest for biocompatibility, we report on oil-in-water (O/W), high-internal-phase Pickering emulsions stabilized via complexes of mechanical cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and food-grade cationic surfactant ethyl lauroyl arginate (LAE). The complexation of oppositely charged CNF and LAE can be held together by electrostatic interaction. Their effect on suspensions electrostatic stabilization, heteroaggregation state, and emulsifying ability was studied and related to properties of resultant interfacial tension between oil and water and 3D printing of emulsions. The Pickering system with adjustable droplet diameter and stability against creaming and oiling-off during storage was achieved resting with LAE loading. Complexes formed by LAE adjustment act as Pickering stabilizers and three-dimensional networks in emulsion system, forming a scaffold with elastoplastic rheological properties that flows above critical stress while, without any additional treatment, exhibiting the required self-standing properties for 3D printing. By understanding the properties of CNF/LAE behavior in bulk and on interfaces, printing edible functional foods of CNF/LAE-based emulgel inks has been demonstrated to enable regulation of oil release.

Reinforcing effect of ε-polylysine-carboxymethyl chitosan nanoparticles on gelatin-based film: Enhancement of physicochemical, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 255:128043. [PMID: 37984581 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
The development and application of antibacterial film were highly anticipated to prevent food spoilage caused by bacteria. In this investigation, antibacterial and antioxidant functionalized gelatin-based film was formed with the incorporation of oregano essential emulsion Pickering emulsion (OPE). ε-Polylysine-Carboxymethyl Chitosan nanoparticles (CMCS-ε-PL) composed of different mass ratios of CMCS and ε-PL were orchestrated by electrostatic forces and hydrogen bonding, which effectively acted as a stabilizer for OPE. The design of different mass ratios of CMCS and ε-PL in CMCS-ε-PL has a deep effect on the structure and functional properties of OPE and film. It successfully improved the encapsulation efficiency of OPE from 49.52 % to 79.83 %. With the observation of AFM images, the augmentation of surface roughness consequent to OPE incorporation can be relieved by the increased contention of ε-PL in CMCS-ε-PL. Meanwhile, the mechanical properties, barrier properties, anti-oxidation, and antibacterial properties of the films were improved with the incorporation of the above OPE. In particular, a synergistic antibacterial activity between ε-PL and OEO in the film was demonstrated in this study and the mechanism of enhanced antibacterial activity was elucidated by examining the integrity of bacteria cell membrane. The film unequivocally demonstrated its ability to appreciably prolong the shelf life of both beef and strawberries with excellent antioxidant and antibacterial properties.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Phase change slurries (PCS) have emerged as a promising class of oil-in-water emulsions for energy applications, but stability remains an issue. Pickering phase change slurries (PPCS) stabilized solely by nanoparticles could offer enhanced stability. We hypothesize that stability in PPCS can be achieved by tuning environmental variables of salinity and temperature. EXPERIMENTS A paraffin-based PPCS stabilized using fumed silica nanoparticles was developed and assessed under varying NaCl concentrations (up to 150 mM) and temperatures (up to 70 °C). Extended-DLVO modeling, confocal, and cryogenic electron microscopy analyzed the silica-paraffin interactions. Rheological experiments examined the impact of effective volume fraction, thermal expansion, and salinity on the viscosity and shear stability of PPCS. The stability of the resulting formulation was assessed under high pressure and temperature conditions. FINDINGS Increased salinity did not change the packing density of the silica at the oil-water interface (82% ± 6%) but did increase the adsorbed layer thickness and network formation, enhancing the formulation's resistance to shear-induced instability. A critical volume fraction of 0.51 ± 0.01 was identified, beyond which viscosity increased significantly. The resulting formulations remained stable under high pressures and temperatures, regardless of salinity. These findings offer insights into the variables affecting PPCS properties, assisting in designing stable PPCS formulations for diverse applications.

Abstract
In this paper, the kinetic stability of Pickering emulsions stabilized by spherical silica particles (100 nm in diameter) was examined in the water - 2,6-lutidine mixture. In the close vicinity of the lower critical solution temperature, Pickering emulsions were unstable due to the ultra-low liquid-liquid interfacial tension but increased their stability with increasing the temperature. In this system, the interfacial tension obeys universal scale law and can be tuned by temperature without adding any surface-active agents. Owing to this unique feature, we elucidated the relation between the interfacial tension and the stability of Pickering emulsions.

Abstract
Emulsion systems are extensively utilized in the food industry, including dairy products, such as ice cream and salad dressing, as well as meat products, beverages, sauces, and mayonnaise. Meanwhile, diverse advanced technologies have been developed for emulsion preparation. Compared with other techniques, high-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) and high-pressure homogenization (HPH) are two emerging emulsification methods that are cost-effective, green, and environmentally friendly and have gained significant attention. HIUS-induced acoustic cavitation helps in efficiently disrupting the oil droplets, which effectively produces a stable emulsion. HPH-induced shear stress, turbulence, and cavitation lead to droplet disruption, altering protein structure and functional aspects of food. The key distinctions among emulsification devices are covered in this review, as are the mechanisms of the HIUS and HPH emulsification processes. Furthermore, the preparation of emulsions including natural polymers (e.g., proteins-polysaccharides, and their complexes), has also been discussed in this review. Moreover, the review put forward to the future HIUS and HPH emulsification trends and challenges. HIUS and HPH can prepare much emulsifier-stable food emulsions, (e.g., proteins, polysaccharides, and protein-polysaccharide complexes). Appropriate HIUS and HPH treatment can improve emulsions' rheological and emulsifying properties and reduce the emulsions droplets' size. HIUS and HPH are suitable methods for developing protein-polysaccharide forming stable emulsions. Despite the numerous studies conducted on ultrasonic and homogenization-induced emulsifying properties available in recent literature, this review specifically focuses on summarizing the significant progress made in utilizing biopolymer-based protein-polysaccharide complex particles, which can provide valuable insights for designing new, sustainable, clean-label, and improved eco-friendly colloidal systems for food emulsion. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Utilizing complex particle-stabilized emulsions is a promising approach towards developing safer, healthier, and more sustainable food products that meet legal requirements and industrial standards. Moreover, the is an increasing need of concentrated emulsions stabilized by biopolymer complex particles, which have been increasingly recognized for their potential health benefits in protecting against lifestyle-related diseases by the scientific community, industries, and consumers.

Abstract
The interconnected hierarchically porous structures are of key importance for potential applications as substrates for drug delivery, cell culture, and bioscaffolds, ensuring cell adhesion and sufficient diffusion of metabolites and nutrients. Here, encapsulation of a vitamin C-loaded gel-like double emulsion using a hydrophobic emulsifier and soy particles was performed to develop a bioactive bioink for 3D printing of highly porous scaffolds with enhanced cell biocompatibility. The produced double emulsions suggested a mechanical strength with the range of elastic moduli of soft tissues possessing a thixotropic feature and recoverable matrix. The outstanding flow behavior and viscoelasticity broaden the potential of gel-like double emulsion to engineer 3D scaffolds, in which 3D constructs showed a high level of porosity and excellent shape fidelity with antiwearing and self-lubricating properties. Investigation of cell viability and proliferation using fibroblasts (NIH-3T3) within vitamin C-loaded gel-like bioinks revealed that printed 3D scaffolds offered brilliant biocompatibility and cell adhesion. Compared to scaffolds without encapsulated vitamin C, 3D scaffolds containing vitamin C showed higher cell viability after 1 week of cell proliferation. This work represented a systematic investigation of hierarchical self-assembly in double emulsions and offered insights into mechanisms that control microstructure within supramolecular structures, which could be instructive for the design of advanced functional tissues.

Abstract
By considering the hydrolysates of soy protein produced by trypsin as an example, the emulsion stabilizing properties of plant-based protein fragments have been investigated theoretically. We apply Self-Consistent-Field (SCF) calculations to determine the colloidal interactions induced between a pair of droplets stabilized by adsorbed layers of various soy protein fragments. The study is extended to conjugates of such polypeptides, formed by covalent bonding with a suitable hydrophilic sidechain (e.g. a polysaccharide). Our results show that the relatively longer fragments, with a greater number of hydrophobic amino acids, will display a stronger degree of adsorption affinity compared to the smaller hydrolysates, even where the latter may have a higher overall ratio of hydrophobic residues. This suggested that the degree of protein hydrolysis should be carefully controlled and limited to modest values to avoid the generation of a large number of short polypeptides, while still sufficient to improve solubility. While the emulsion stabilizing performance of a protein fragment type is strongly dependent on the conformation it adopts on the interface, we find this to be less critical for the conjugated polypeptides. However, we argue that with increasing degree of hydrolysis, many small fragments will not have the chance to form bonds with polysaccharides. It is demonstrated that the abundance of these unreacted polypeptides in the system severely reduces the efficiency of the conjugated longer protein fragments, preventing their presence on the surface of the droplets through competitive adsorption process.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions have been widely studied due to their good stability and potential applications. Nanocellulose including cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs), and bacterial cellulose nanofibrils (BCNFs) has emerged as sustainable stabilizers/emulsifiers in food-related Pickering emulsions due to their favorable properties such as renewability, low toxicity, amphiphilicity, biocompatibility, and high aspect ratio. Nanocellulose can be widely obtained from different sources and extraction methods and can effectively stabilize Pickering emulsions via the irreversible adsorption onto oil-water interface. The synergistic effects of nanocellulose and other substances can further enhance the interfacial networks. The nanocellulose-based Pickering emulsions have potential food-related applications in delivery systems, food packaging materials, and fat substitutes. Nanocellulose-based Pickering emulsions as 3D printing inks exhibit good injectable and gelling properties and are promising to print spatial architectures. In the future, the utilization of biomass waste and the development of "green" and facile extraction methods for nanocellulose production deserve more attention. The stability of nanocellulose-based Pickering emulsions in multi-component food systems and at various conditions is an utmost challenge. Moreover, the case-by-case studies on the potential safety issues of nanocellulose-based Pickering emulsions need to be carried out with the standardized assessment procedures. In this review, we highlight key fundamental work and recent reports on nanocellulose-based Pickering emulsion systems. The sources and extraction of nanocellulose and the fabrication of nanocellulose-based Pickering emulsions are briefly summarized. Furthermore, the synergistic stability and food-related applications of nanocellulose-stabilized Pickering emulsions are spotlighted.

Abstract
Mucilages are natural compounds consisting mainly of polysaccharides with complex chemical structures. Mucilages also contain uronic acids, proteins, lipids, and bioactive compounds. Because of their unique properties, mucilages are used in various industries, including food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Typically, commercial gums are composed only of polysaccharides, which increase their hydrophilicity and surface tension, reducing their emulsifying ability. As a result of the presence of proteins in combination with polysaccharides, mucilages possess unique emulsifying properties due to their ability to reduce surface tension. In recent years, various studies have been conducted on using mucilages as emulsifiers in classical and Pickering emulsions because of their unique emulsifying feature. Studies have shown that some mucilages, such as yellow mustard, mutamba, and flaxseed mucilages, have a higher emulsifying capacity than commercial gums. A synergistic effect has also been shown in some mucilages, such as Dioscorea opposita mucilage when combined with commercial gums. This review article investigates whether mucilages can be used as emulsifiers and what factors affect their emulsifying properties. A discussion of the challenges and prospects of using mucilages as emulsifiers is also presented in this review.

Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15051341. [PMID: 37242583 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15051341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Nanocrystals (NCs) have the potential to enhance the oral bioavailability of Class IV drugs in the Biopharmaceutical Classification System (BCS) due to the absorption of the intact crystals. The performance is compromised by the dissolution of NCs. Drug NCs have recently been adopted as solid emulsifiers to prepare nanocrystal self-stabilized Pickering emulsions (NCSSPEs). They are advantageous in high drug loading and low side effects due to the specific drug loading mode and the absence of chemical surfactants. More importantly, NCSSPEs may further enhance the oral bioavailability of drug NCs by impeding their dissolution. This is especially true for BCS IV drugs. In this study, curcumin (CUR), a typical BCS IV drug, was adopted to prepare CUR-NCs stabilized Pickering emulsions using either indigestible (isopropyl palmitate, IPP) or digestible (soybean oil, SO) oils, i.e., IPP-PEs and SO-PEs. The optimized formulations were spheric with CUR-NCs adsorbed on the water/oil interface. The CUR concentration in the formulation reached 20 mg/mL, which was far beyond the solubility of CUR in IPP (158.06 ± 3.44 μg/g) or SO (124.19 ± 2.40 μg/g). Moreover, the Pickering emulsions enhanced the oral bioavailability of CUR-NCs, being 172.85% for IPP-PEs and 152.07% for SO-PEs. The digestibility of the oil phase affected the amounts of CUR-NCs that remained intact in lipolysis and, thus, the oral bioavailability. In conclusion, converting NCs into Pickering emulsions provides a novel strategy to enhance the oral bioavailability of CUR and BCS IV drugs.

Abstract
The effect of konjac glucomannan (KGM) on the stability and digestion characteristics of xanthan gum/lysozyme nanoparticles (XG/Ly NPs) stabilized Pickering emulsions was investigated. Results indicated that the high viscosity of KGM prompted the particles to be adsorbed toward the interface, which decreased the particle size and increased the stability of emulsions. As the concentration of KGM increased, the G' and G″ of emulsions became larger and approached a "solid-like" state. When the KGM concentration was ≥0.2 %, the large amplitude sweeps of the emulsion exhibited a "weak strain overshoot". The network structure formed by KGM molecular chain and particles was intertwined around the droplets to form a polysaccharide layer and fibrous network structure. Emulsions containing KGM showed a "spider web" epidermal network pattern. It was found by illumination for 4 h that samples with 0.2 % KGM concentration increased the retention of β-carotene by 18.74 %. KGM decreased the release rate of fatty acids and bioaccessibility by hindering bile salt and lipase adsorption.

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
It is important to have larger proportions of health-beneficial polyunsaturated lipids in foods, but these nutrients are particularly sensitive to oxidation, and dedicated strategies must be developed to prevent this deleterious reaction. In food oil-in-water emulsions, the oil-water interface is a crucial area when it comes to the initiation of lipid oxidation. Unfortunately, most available natural antioxidants, such as phenolic antioxidants, do not spontaneously position at this specific locus. Achieving such a strategic positioning has therefore been an active research area, and various routes have been proposed: lipophilizing phenolic acids to confer them with an amphiphilic character; functionalizing biopolymer emulsifiers through covalent or noncovalent interactions with phenolics; or loading Pickering particles with natural phenolic compounds to yield interfacial antioxidant reservoirs. We herein review the principles and efficiency of these approaches to counteract lipid oxidation in emulsions as well as their advantages and limitations.

Abstract
In contrast to their well-known physiological properties, phytochemicals, such as flavonoids, have been less frequently examined for their physiochemical properties (e.g., surface activity). A natural quercetin self-stabilizing Pickering emulsion was fabricated and characterized in the present study. The antisolvent precipitation method was used to modify quercetin (in dihydrate form), and the obtained particles were characterized by light microscope, atom force microscope, XRD, and contact angle. The antisolvent treatment was found to reduce the particle size, crystallinity, and surface hydrophobicity of quercetin. We then examined the effects of the antisolvent ratio, particle concentration, and oil fraction on the properties of the quercetin particle-stabilized emulsions. In addition, increasing the antisolvent ratio (1:1~1:10) effectively improved the emulsification performance of the quercetin particles. The emulsion showed good storage stability, and the particle size of the emulsion decreased with the rising particle concentration and increased with the rising oil phase ratio. The findings indicate that natural quercetin treated with antisolvent method has a good ability to stabilize Pickering emulsion, and this emulsion may have good prospective application potential for the development of novel and functional emulsion foods.

Abstract
Emulsions are implemented in the fabrication of a wide array of foods and therefore are of great importance in food science. However, the application of emulsions in food production is restricted by two main obstacles, that is, physical and oxidative stability. The former has been comprehensively reviewed somewhere else, but our literature review indicated that there is a prominent ground for reviewing the latter across all kinds of emulsions. Therefore, the present study was formulated in order to review oxidation and oxidative stability in emulsions. In doing so, different measures to render oxidative stability to emulsions are reviewed after introducing lipid oxidation reactions and methods to measure lipid oxidation. These strategies are scrutinized in four main categories, namely storage conditions, emulsifiers, optimization of production methods, and antioxidants. Afterward, oxidation in all types of emulsions, including conventional ones (oil-in-water and water-in-oil) and uncommon emulsions in food production (oil-in-oil), is reviewed. Furthermore, the oxidation and oxidative stability of multiple emulsions, nanoemulsions, and Pickering emulsions are taken into account. Finally, oxidative processes across different parent and food emulsions were explained taking a comparative approach.

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
In this work, thermomechanically micronized sugar beet pulp (MSBP), a micron-scaled plant-based byproduct comprised of soluble elements (∼40 wt%) and insoluble fibrous particles (IFPs, ∼60 wt%), was used as a sole stabilizer for oil-in-water emulsion fabrication. The influence of emulsification parameters on the emulsifying properties of MSBP was investigated, including emulsification techniques, MSBP concentration, and oil weight fraction. High-speed shearing (M1), ultrasonication (M2), and microfludization (M3) were used to fabricate oil-in-water emulsions (20% oil) with 0.60 wt% MSBP as stabilizer, in which the d4,3 value was 68.3, 31.5, and 18.2 μm, respectively. Emulsions fabricated by M2 and M3 (higher energy input) were more stable than M1 (lower energy input) during long-term storage (30 days) as no significant increase of d4,3. As compared to M1, the adsorption ratio of IFPs and protein was increased from ∼0.46 and ∼0.34 to ∼0.88 and ∼0.55 by M3. Fabricated by M3, the creaming behavior of emulsions was completely inhibited with 1.00 wt% MSBP (20% oil) and 40% oil (0.60 wt% MSBP), showing a flocculated state and could be disturbed by sodium dodecyl sulfate. The gel-like network formed by IFPs could be strengthened after storage as both viscosity and module were significantly increased. During emulsification, the co-stabilization effect of the soluble elements and IFPs enabled a compact and hybrid coverage onto the droplet surface, which acted as a physical barrier to endow the emulsion with robust steric repulsion. Altogether, these findings suggested the feasibility of using plant-based byproducts as oil-in-water emulsion stabilizers.

Abstract
A holistic utilization of all lignocellulosic wood biomass, instead of the current approach of using only the cellulose fraction, is crucial for the efficient, ecological, and economical use of the forest resources. Use of wood constituents in the food and feed sector is a potential way of promoting the global economy. However, industrially established food products utilizing such components are still scarce, with the exception of cellulose derivatives. Hemicelluloses that include xylans and mannans are major constituents of wood. The wood hemicelluloses are structurally similar to hemicelluloses from crops, which are included in our diet, for example, as a part of dietary fibers. Hence, structurally similar wood hemicelluloses have the potential for similar uses. We review the current status and future potential of wood hemicelluloses as food ingredients. We include an inventory of the extraction routes of wood hemicelluloses, their physicochemical properties, and some of their gastrointestinal characteristics, and we also consider the regulatory route that research findings need to follow to be approved for food solutions, as well as the current status of the wood hemicellulose applications on that route.

Abstract
Phase inversion of Pickering emulsions from water-in-oil (W/O) to oil-in-water (O/W) is achieved by the formation of an interfacial particle bilayer using negatively charged and positively charged particles dispersed in water and oil, respectively, before emulsification. A mechanism based on electrostatic attraction across the toluene-water interface is proposed and verified by systematic investigation of the parameters that affect the surface charge of negatively charged particles such as pH and salt concentration. Cationic silica-FITC particles (600 nm) can be dispersed in toluene and stabilize W/O emulsions alone; phase inversion of this emulsion can be induced by the addition of anionic silica-RB particles in the aqueous phase at a concentration of 1.0 wt % or above. It is revealed that silica-RB particles of a smaller size (100 nm) can induce emulsion phase inversion at a much lower concentration (0.4 wt %) and an interfacial particle bilayer is clearly revealed by CLSM and SEM images. By tuning the surface charge density of silica-RB particles, the electrostatic attraction mechanism leading to the formation of the interfacial particle bilayer is confirmed and emulsion stability can be tuned as demonstrated by osmotic pressure enhancement results obtained from centrifugation.

Abstract
Micro- and nanogels are widely used to stabilise emulsions and simultaneously implement their responsiveness to the external stimuli. One of the factors that improves the emulsion stability is the nanogel softness. Here, we study how the softest nanogels that can be synthesised with precipitation polymerisation of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM), the ultra-low crosslinked (ULC) nanogels, stabilise oil-in-water emulsions. We show that ULC nanogels can efficiently stabilise emulsions already at low mass concentrations. These emulsions are resistant to droplet flocculation, stable against coalescence, and can be easily broken upon an increase in temperature. The resistance to flocculation of the ULC-stabilised emulsion droplets is similar to the one of emulsions stabilised by linear pNIPAM. In contrast, the stability against coalescence and the temperature-responsiveness closely resemble those of emulsions stabilised by regularly crosslinked pNIPAM nanogels. The reason for this combination of properties is that ULC nanogels can be thought of as colloids in between flexible macromolecules and particles. As a polymer, ULC nanogels can efficiently stretch at the interface and cover it uniformly. As a regularly crosslinked nanogel particle, ULC nanogels protect emulsion droplets against coalescence by providing a steric barrier and rapidly respond to changes in external stimuli thus breaking the emulsion. This polymer-particle duality of ULC nanogels can be exploited to improve the properties of emulsions for various applications, for example in heterogeneous catalysis or in food science.

Abstract
External stimuli-induced destabilisation of oil-in-water emulsions is of both fundamental and technological importance. In this work we synthesize light-active bolaform-type surfactants (LABSs) and show the preparation of decane-in-water emulsions over a range of surfactant and salt concentrations. Under ultraviolet (UV) illumination, LABSs undergo trans to cis isomerization affecting their interfacial activity. Therefore when stable emulsions stabilized by LABSs are exposed to UV light, they undergo partial destabilization. To induce interfacial flow, a small amount of volatile solvent (methanol, ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, etc.) is added at the emulsification stage and in this case complete phase separation is observed. This study demonstrates a facile route to induce destabilization of surfactant-stabilized emulsions using benign solvents and minimal use of energy (UV light) and this method could be of importance in wastewater treatment, enhanced oil recovery, protein separation, etc. where emulsion destabilization is desired.

Abstract
The possible applications of w/o/w multiple emulsions (MEs) in ice creams are described. W/o/w MEs enable the encapsulation of sensitive compounds. Fat content is reduced using w/o/w MEs without losing the creaminess of the final products. Ice cream is a very suitable matrix for application of Pickering emulsions.
Ice cream is a popular product worldwide. Unfortunatelly, it contains a significant amount of fat. In this review, promising strategies for the use of w/o/w multiple emulsion structures in creams are assessed. W/o/w multiple emulsions (MEs) enable reduction the fat without losing the creamy taste and mouthfeel and also encapsulation of sensitive compounds. The encouraging application and formation of MEs in ice cream mixtures is supported by the use of natural food ingredients, such as fiber, which helps to stabilize the whole system and improves nutritional value. The future trends may be focused on the target stabilizations using Pickering paticles (PPs). The possible advantages, manufacture, evaluation methods, and predicted future prospects of MEs in ice creams are discussed.

Abstract
The development of novel materials with microstructures is now a trend in food science and technology. These microscale materials may be applied across all steps in food manufacturing, from raw materials to the final food products, as well as in the packaging, transport, and storage processes. Microfluidics is an advanced technology for controlling fluids in a microscale channel (1~100 μm), which integrates engineering, physics, chemistry, nanotechnology, etc. This technology allows unit operations to occur in devices that are closer in size to the expected structural elements. Therefore, microfluidics is considered a promising technology to develop micro/nanostructures for delivery purposes to improve the quality and safety of foods. This review concentrates on the recent developments of microfluidic systems and their novel applications in food science and technology, including microfibers/films via microfluidic spinning technology for food packaging, droplet microfluidics for food micro-/nanoemulsifications and encapsulations, etc.

[PMID: 36363998 PMCID: PMC9657650 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27217170] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2022] [Revised: 10/20/2022] [Accepted: 10/20/2022] [Indexed: 07/27/2023] Open
Abstract
In the past few years, the research on particle-stabilized emulsion (Pickering emulsion) has mainly focused on the usage of inorganic particles with well-defined shapes, narrow size distributions, and chemical tunability of the surfaces such as silica, alumina, and clay. However, the presence of incompatibility of some inorganic particles that are non-safe to humans and the ecosystem and their poor sustainability has led to a shift towards the development of materials of biological origin. For this reason, nano-dimensional cellulose (nanocellulose) derived from natural plants is suitable for use as a Pickering material for liquid interface stabilization for various non-toxic product formulations (e.g., the food and beverage, cosmetic, personal care, hygiene, pharmaceutical, and biomedical fields). However, the current understanding of nanocellulose-stabilized Pickering emulsion still lacks consistency in terms of the structural, self-assembly, and physio-chemical properties of nanocellulose towards the stabilization between liquid and oil interfaces. Thus, this review aims to provide a comprehensive study of the behavior of nanocellulose-based particles and their ability as a Pickering functionality to stabilize emulsion droplets. Extensive discussion on the characteristics of nanocelluloses, morphology, and preparation methods that can potentially be applied as Pickering emulsifiers in a different range of emulsions is provided. Nanocellulose's surface modification for the purpose of altering its characteristics and provoking multifunctional roles for high-grade non-toxic applications is discussed. Subsequently, the water-oil stabilization mechanism and the criteria for effective emulsion stabilization are summarized in this review. Lastly, we discuss the toxicity profile and risk assessment guidelines for the whole life cycle of nanocellulose from the fresh feedstock to the end-life of the product.

Optimization of Pea Protein Isolate-Stabilized Oil-in-Water Ultra-Nanoemulsions by Response Surface Methodology and the Effect of Electrolytes on Optimized Nanoemulsions.

Abstract
Nanoemulsions are optically transparent and offer good stability, bioavailability, and control over the targeted delivery and release of lipophilic active components. In this study, pea protein isolate (PPI)-stabilized O/W nanoemulsions were evaluated using response surface methodology to obtain optimized ultra-nanoemulsions of Sauter mean diameter (D3,2) < 100 nm using a high-pressure homogenizer (HPH). Furthermore, the effect of food matrix electrolytes, i.e., the pH and ionic strength, on the emulsion (prepared at optimized conditions) was investigated. The results revealed that the droplet size distribution of emulsions was mainly influenced by the PPI concentration and the interaction of oil concentration and HPH pressure. Moreover, a non-significant increase in droplet size was observed when the nanoemulsions (having an initial D3,2 < 100 nm) were stored at 4 °C for 7 days. Based on the current experimental design, nanoemulsions with a droplet size < 100 nm can effectively be prepared with a high PPI concentration (6.35%), with less oil (1.95%), and at high HPH pressure (46.82 MPa). Such emulsions were capable of maintaining a droplet size below 100 nm even at ionic conditions of up to 400 mM NaCl and at acidic pH.

Abstract
Nonaqueous Pickering emulsions exhibit promising applications in many industrial areas but have been relatively less studied in the past. In this study, n-hexane-in-DMF nonaqueous Pickering emulsions stabilized by core cross-linked copolymer worms with mixed shells are demonstrated for the first time. Core cross-linked copolymer worms with mixed shells were prepared by seeded reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) quasi-solution polymerization. Specifically, polystyrene-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-P4VP) diblock copolymer worms were first prepared via RAFT-mediated dispersion polymerization in toluene under the given conditions using PS as both the macro-CTA and the stabilizer block. After the chemical cross-linking of P4VP cores, PS-P4VP diblock copolymer worms were chain-extended with LMA in DMF/toluene (1:9, weight ratio) mixed solvents, producing core cross-linked PS-P4VP-PLMA worms with PS/PLMA mixed shells. The as-prepared core cross-linked PS-P4VP-PLMA worms with mixed PS/PLMA shells were further utilized as Pickering emulsifiers for the generation of nonaqueous n-hexane-in-DMF Pickering emulsions. The emulsifying performances of mixed-shell copolymer worms were compared with those of their spherical and linear analogues with entirely identical chemical compositions as well as PS-P4VP diblock copolymer worm precursors, respectively.

Abstract
The incorporation of soft hydrophilic particles at the interface of water in non-polar oil emulsion droplets is crucial for several applications. However, the stabilization of water in non-polar oil emulsions with hydrophilic soft material alone is, besides certain exceptions, not possible. In our previous works, we showed that stabilizing the emulsions with well-characterized spherical hydrophobic silica nanospheres (SNs) and soft equally charged microgel particles (MGs) is a robust strategy to stabilize w/o emulsions while still incorporating a large amount of MGs at the interface. In the present study, we address the question of what the maximum amount of MGs at the interface in these kinds of emulsion droplets can be. By using well-characterized mono-disperse SNs, we are able to calculate the fraction of interface covered by the SNs and complementary that of the present MG. We found that it is not possible to decrease the SN coverage below 56% irrespective of MG softness and SN size. The findings elucidate new perspectives to the broader topic of soft/solid stabilized emulsions.

Abstract
Anthocyanins are an important group of phenolic compounds responsible for pigmentation in several plants, and regular consumption is associated with a reduced risk of several diseases. However, the application of anthocyanins in foods represents a challenge due to molecular instability. The encapsulation of anthocyanins in nanostructures is a viable way to protect from the factors responsible for degradation and enable the industrial application of these compounds. Nanoencapsulation is a set of techniques in which the bioactive molecules are covered by resistant biomaterials that protect them from chemical and biological factors during processing and storage. This review comprehensively summarizes the existing knowledge about the structure of anthocyanins and molecular stability, with a critical analysis of anthocyanins' nanoencapsulation, the main encapsulating materials (polysaccharides, proteins, and lipids), and techniques used in the formation of nanocarriers to protect anthocyanins. Some studies point to the effectiveness of nanostructures in maintaining anthocyanin stability and antioxidant activity. The main advantages of the application of nanoencapsulated anthocyanins in foods are the increase in the nutritional value of the food, the addition of color, the increase in food storage, and the possible increase in bioavailability after oral ingestion. Nanoencapsulation improves stability for anthocyanin, thus demonstrating the potential to be included in foods or used as dietary supplements, and current limitations, challenges, and future directions of anthocyanins' have also been discussed.

Abstract
Delivering effectively zero-valent selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) and develop its functions in more fields is still a challenge. Herein, a novel template for the preparation and stabilization of SeNP-based surfactants was developed, amphiphilic sodium alginate (APSA), which can self-assemble into micelles in an aqueous solution. Primarily, physicochemical properties of SeNPs stabilized by APSA with different molecular weights were compared and the interaction mechanism of APSA/SeNPs was investigated. Moreover, a functional Pickering emulsion (PE) was presented using the SeNP-based surfactants. Results showed that high molecular weight-stabilized SeNPs had small particle size (54.72 nm) and great stability due to the hydrogen bonding between Se atoms and APSA. The "soft" particle-decorated SeNPs with interface activity formed a dense interfacial layer on the oil-water interface, which exhibited excellent antioxidant properties. The contents of lipid hydrogen peroxide (LH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were significantly reduced by 88.7% and 63.4%. Overall, SeNPs stabilized by APSA have great application potential as an emulsifier and antioxidant in industrial field.

Abstract
Emulsions stabilized by adsorbed particles—Pickering particles (PPs) instead of surfactants and emulsifiers are called Pickering emulsions. Here, we review the possible uses of Pickering multiple emulsions (PMEs) in the food industry. Food-grade PMEs are very complex systems with high potential for application in food technology. They can be prepared by traditional two-step emulsification processes but also using complex techniques, e.g., microfluidic devices. Compared to those stabilized with an emulsifier, PMEs provide more benefits such as lower susceptibility to coalescence, possible encapsulation of functional compounds in PMEs or even PPs with controlled release, etc. Additionally, the PPs can be made from food-grade by-products. Naturally, w/o/w emulsions in the Pickering form can also provide benefits such as fat reduction by partial replacement of fat phase with internal water phase and encapsulation of sensitive compounds in the internal water phase. A possible advanced type of PMEs may be stabilized by Janus particles, which can change their physicochemical properties and control properties of the whole emulsion systems. These emulsions have big potential as biosensors. In this paper, recent advances in the application of PPs in food emulsions are highlighted with emphasis on the potential application in food-grade PMEs.

Abstract
With the development of reversible deactivated radical polymerization techniques, polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) is emerging as a facile method to prepare block copolymer nanoparticles in situ with high concentrations, providing wide potential applications in different fields, including nanomedicine, coatings, nanomanufacture, and Pickering emulsions. Polymeric emulsifiers synthesized by PISA have many advantages comparing with conventional nanoparticle emulsifiers. The morphologies, size, and amphiphilicity can be readily regulated via the synthetic process, post-modification, and external stimuli. By introducing stimulus responsiveness into PISA nanoparticles, Pickering emulsions stabilized with these nanoparticles can be endowed with "smart" behaviors. The emulsions can be regulated in reversible emulsification and demulsification. In this review, the authors focus on recent progress on Pickering emulsions stabilized by PISA nanoparticles with stimuli-responsiveness. The factors affecting the stability of emulsions during emulsification and demulsification are discussed in details. Furthermore, some viewpoints for preparing stimuli-responsive emulsions and their applications in antibacterial agents, diphase reaction platforms, and multi-emulsions are discussed as well. Finally, the future developments and applications of stimuli-responsive Pickering emulsions stabilized by PISA nanoparticles are highlighted.
