Decreased formulation pH and protein preheating treatment enhance the interaction, storage stability, and bioaccessibility of caseinate-bound lutein/zeaxanthin. Food Res Int 2024; 195:114971. [PMID: 39277268 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114971] [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: 06/18/2024] [Revised: 08/19/2024] [Accepted: 08/20/2024] [Indexed: 09/17/2024]
Abstract
Heat treatment and pH are crucial factors in the formulation and processing of food and beverages; thus, a thorough understanding of the impact of these factors on the interactions between bioactive constituents and proteins is essential to developing effective protein-based delivery systems. This study explores the influences of pH (ranged from 1.5 to 7.5) and preheating treatment on the characteristics of caseinates-lutein (LU)/zeaxanthin (ZX) complexes and evaluates the potential application of caseinates as protective carriers in xanthophyll-fortified beverages. The properties and interactions of caseinates and two xanthophylls were systematically investigated utilizing a range of spectroscopic techniques, including ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), fluorescence spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Caseinates were bound to LU/ZX with a binding constant of the order 105 M-1. Furthermore, ZX exhibited a higher affinity for caseinates than LU. In particular, the decreased pH level of complex formulation and the preheating of caseinates at 85 °C strengthened the binding affinity between LU/ZX and caseinates. The caseinate-LU/ZX complexes effectively improved the chemical stability of LU/ZX and achieved a bioaccessibility rate of over 70 %. This study provides a guide for developing commercially available xanthophyll-fortified beverages and further expanding the application of caseinates as encapsulation carriers for extremely hydrophobic nutrients in the food industry.

Abstract
Lutein (LT) is a natural carotenoid and is widely used for its vision protection and antioxidant activity. However, the long-chain polyene structure makes lutein sensitive to light and oxygen and poses many difficulties in the production, processing, and storage. In addition, the special chemical structure of LT leads to low solubility and bioavailability. In this study, we propose an efficient solution to address these issues. A cocrystal of LT with adipic acid (LT-APC) was obtained for the first time. The cocrystals were fully characterized. After cocrystallization, the melting point of marketed LT was increased. The chemical stability of LT was significantly improved, and the influence of impurities on stability was limited. Dissolution experiments were performed in simulated gastric fluid (SGF) and simulated intestinal fluid (SIF) and the cocrystal generated a much higher apparent solubility. To deepen insight into the mechanisms underlying the cocrystal's improved solubility, wettability tests were performed by contact angle determination and film flotation methods. The cocrystal presented better wettability than the marketed LT. Finally, pharmacokinetic studies of marketed LT and its cocrystal were conducted in rats. The results showed that the cocrystal exhibited 3.4 times higher C max and 2.2 times higher AUC at a single dose compared with marketed LT.

Abstract
In this study, polyacrylic acid grafted lutein (PAA-g-lutein) was prepared by hydrophilic modification of lutein with polyacrylic acid (PAA) through Steglish esterification method. The unreacted lutein was loaded in micelles formed by self-assembly of graft copolymers in water to form composite nanoparticles. The bioaccessibility and bioavailability of lutein nanoparticles were studied by in vitro and in vivo digestion experiments. Compared with free lutein, the saturated solubility and bioaccessibility of lutein nanoparticles were increased by 78 times and 3.6 times, respectively. The pharmacokinetics results in the mice model showed that the maximum concentration (Cmax) and area under concentration-time curve (AUC) of plasma of mice were increased by 3.05 and 6.07 times with lutein nanoparticles compared with free lutein. Meanwhile, the prepared lutein nanoparticles also promoted the accumulation of lutein in the liver, mesenteric adipose, and eyeballs. These results indicate that graft copolymerization of lutein with water-soluble polymers to form nanoparticles is an effective method to promote the bioavailability of lutein in vivo. Moreover, this method is simple and applicable, and can also be used for the modification of other bioactive molecules.

Abstract
A new amphiphilic oligosaccharide derivative, based on lutein modification onto the OH position of stachyose with facile and mild esterification, was prepared and used to improve the oral bioavailability of lutein. The structures of lutein-stachyose derivative (LS) were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and hydrogen-1 nuclear magnetic resonance, indicating that one stachyose is connected to one lutein through succinic acid. The critical micelle concentration of LS was approximately 6.86 ± 0.24 mg/mL, corresponding to the free lutein concentration of approximately 2.96 mg/mL. LS has better digestive stability and free radical scavenging ability, and it could inhibit the degradation of lutein in the gastrointestinal tract. Importantly, LS is nontoxic to cells and zebrafish embryos. In terms of oral bioavailability in rats, the AUC0-12h values of LS were 2.26 times higher than those of free lutein. Therefore, stachyose modification is a promising strategy for improving the oral bioavailability of fat-soluble lutein.

Abstract
Carotenoids, including carotenes and xanthophylls, have been identified as bioactive ingredients in foods and are considered to possess health-promoting effects. From a biopharmaceutical perspective, several physicochemical characteristics, such as scanty water solubility, restricted dissolution, and susceptibility to oxidation may influence their oral bioavailability and eventually, their effectiveness. In this review, we have summarized various formulation approaches that deal with the modification of crystalline status for carotenoids, which may improve their physicochemical properties, oral absorption, and biological effects. The mechanisms involving crystalline alteration and the typical methods for examining crystalline states in the pharmaceutical field have been included, and representative formulation approaches are introduced to unriddle the mechanisms and effects more clearly.

Nanoscale Delivery Systems of Lutein: An Updated Review from a Pharmaceutical Perspective. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14091852.

Abstract
Carotenoids are natural lipid-soluble pigments that produce yellow to red colors in plants as well as providing bright coloration in vegetables and fruits. Lutein belongs to the xanthophyll subgroup of the carotenoid family, which plays an essential role in photosynthesis and photoprotection in nature. In the human body, lutein, together with its isomer zeaxanthin and its metabolite meso-zeaxanthin, accumulates in the macula of the eye retina, which is responsible for central, high-resolution, and color vision. As a bioactive phytochemical, lutein has essential physiological functions, providing photoprotection against damaging blue light, along with the neutralization of oxidants and the preservation of the structural and functional integrity of cellular membranes. As a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, lutein unfortunately has a low bioavailability because of its lipophilicity and a low stability as a result of its conjugated double bonds. In order to enhance lutein stability and bioavailability and achieve its controlled delivery to a target, nanoscale delivery systems, which have great potential for the delivery of bioactive compounds, are starting to be employed. The current review highlights the advantages and innovations associated with incorporating lutein within promising nanoscale delivery systems, such as liposomes, nanoemulsions, polymer nanoparticles, and polymer–lipid hybrid nanoparticles, as well as their unique physiochemical properties.

Abstract
Phytoferritin was explored as an attractive nanocarrier to encapsulate bioactive compounds due to its excellent stability and biocompatibility. In the present study, a novel phytoferritin derived from alfalfa (Medicago sativa) was successfully expressed, purified and characterized. Results confirmed that alfalfa ferritin, self-assembled by 24 subunits, formed a spherical hollow structure. Baicalein exhibits superior antioxidant properties and nutritious values, but low bioavailability and solubility limit its application. Herein, we fabricated water-soluble chitosan-ferritin-baicalein nanoparticles to overcome its drawbacks. It was calculated that one apoferritin cage could encapsulate 52 molecules of baicalein. Moreover, chitosan-ferritin-baicalein nanoparticles prolonged the release of baicalein in simulated gastrointestinal tract digestion. Caco-2 cell monolayer absorption analysis demonstrated that baicalein encapsulated within ferritin-chitosan double layers was more efficient in cellular transportation. These results indicated that alfalfa ferritin, as a novel cage-like protein, has potential application in improving the bioavailability of insoluble bioactive molecules.

Abstract
Lutein is a natural fat-soluble carotenoid with various physiological functions. However, its poor water solubility and stability restrict its application in functional foods. The present study sought to analyze the stability and interaction mechanism of the complex glycosylated soy protein isolate (SPI) prepared using SPI and inulin-type fructans and lutein. The results showed that glycosylation reduced the fluorescence intensity and surface hydrophobicity of SPI but improved the emulsification process and solubility. Fluorescence intensity and ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) absorption spectroscopy results showed that the fluorescence quenching of the glycosylated soybean protein isolate by lutein was static. Through thermodynamic parameter analysis, it was found that lutein and glycosylated SPI were bound spontaneously through hydrophobic interaction, and the binding stoichiometry was 1:1. The X-ray diffraction analysis results showed that lutein existed in the glycosylated soybean protein isolate in an amorphous form. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis results revealed that lutein had no effect on the secondary structure of glycosylated soy protein isolate. Meanwhile, the combination of lutein and glycosylated SPI improved the water solubility of lutein and the stability of light and heat.

Abstract
Marigold flower petals are considered the richest source of lutein which possesses immense applications in the food and health sector. The study was undertaken to improve the stability of sunflower oil by enriching it with lutein extracted from marigold flower petals using safe and green technology. The extraction of lutein was optimized using Box-Behnken design by ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) employing sunflower oil as a solvent. The impact of three independent variables i.e., ultrasonic intensity, solid to solvent ratio, and extraction time were evaluated on the amount of lutein extracted and its antioxidant activity. Highest amount of lutein (21.23 mg/g) was extracted by employing ultrasonic intensity of 70 W/m2, extraction time of 12.5 min, and solid to solvent ratio of 15.75%. FT-IR spectra of lutein extracted by ultrasound and conventional extraction show similar peaks depicting that ultrasound does not have any impact on the functionality of lutein. Sunflower oil incorporated with lutein at 1000 PPM and the synthetic antioxidant (TBHQ) showed good oxidative stability than oil with 500 PPM lutein and no lutein during accelerated storage for a month. The oxidative stability was shown by different oil samples in the following order: TBHQ = 1000PPM lutein˃500PPM lutein ˃control oil. It was concluded that the ultrasound technique extracts lutein efficiently from marigold flowers and this lutein was effective in improving the oxidative stability of sunflower oil under accelerated storage conditions.

Abstract
The biological activity and absorption of curcumin (Cur) is limited in application due to its low water solubility, poorstabilityand rapid metabolism. In this work, Cur loaded (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG)/poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) nanoparticles (CEP-NPs) was successfully fabricated via self-assembly driven by hydrogen bonding, providing with desirable Cur-loading efficiency, high stability, strong antioxidant capacity, and pH-triggered intestinal targeted release properties. Molecular dynamics simulations further indicated the Cur was coated with EGCG and PVP in CEP-NPs and high acid prolonged release property was attribute to low ionization degree of EGCG. Besides, the enhanced intestinal absorption of Cur was related to inhibition of Cur metabolism by EGCG, enhancement of cellular uptake and higher Caco-2 monolayer permeation. Pharmacokinetic study showed that the oral bioavailability presented nearly 12-fold increment. Therefore, this study provides a new horizon for improving the Cur utilization in food and pharmaceutical fields.

Abstract
Moringa oleifera leaf powder (MOLP) has been identified as the most important functional ingredient owing to its rich nutritional profile and healthy effects. The solubility and functional properties of this ingredient can be enhanced through solid dispersion technology. This study aimed to investigate the effects of polyethylene glycols (PEGs) 4000 and 6000 as hydrophilic carriers and solid dispersion techniques (freeze-drying, melting, solvent evaporation, and microwave irradiation) on the crystallinity and thermal stability of solid-dispersed Moringa oleifera leaf powders (SDMOLPs). SDMOLPs were dully characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The PXRD results revealed that the solid dispersions were partially amorphous with strong diffraction peaks at 2θ values of 19° and 23°. The calorimetric and thermogravimetric curves showed that PEGs conferred greater stability on the dispersions. The FTIR studyrevealed the existence of strong intermolecular hydrogen bond interactions between MOLP and PEG functional groups. MOLP solid dispersions may be useful in functional foods and beverages and nutraceutical formulations.

Abstract
Throughout history, nature has been acknowledged for being a primordial source of various bioactive molecules in which human macular carotenoids are gaining significant attention. Among 750 natural carotenoids, lutein, zeaxanthin and their oxidative metabolites are selectively accumulated in the macular region of living beings. Due to their vast applications in food, feed, pharmaceutical and nutraceuticals industries, the global market of lutein and zeaxanthin is continuously expanding but chemical synthesis, extraction and purification of these compounds from their natural repertoire e.g., plants, is somewhat costly and technically challenging. In this regard microbial as well as microalgal carotenoids are considered as an attractive alternative to aforementioned challenges. Through the techniques of genetic engineering and gene-editing tools like CRISPR/Cas9, the overproduction of lutein and zeaxanthin in microorganisms can be achieved but the commercial scale applications of such procedures needs to be done. Moreover, these carotenoids are highly unstable and susceptible to thermal and oxidative degradation. Therefore, esterification of these xanthophylls and microencapsulation with appropriate wall materials can increase their shelf-life and enhance their application in food industry. With their potent antioxidant activities, these carotenoids are emerging as molecules of vital importance in chronic degenerative, malignancies and antiviral diseases. Therefore, more research needs to be done to further expand the applications of lutein and zeaxanthin.

Abstract
Carotenoids in food substances are believed to have health benefits by lowering the risk of diseases. Lutein, a carotenoid compound, is one of the essential nutrients available in green leafy vegetables (kale, broccoli, spinach, lettuce, and peas), along with other foods, such as eggs. As nutrition plays a pivotal role in maintaining human health, lutein, as a nutritional substance, confers promising benefits against numerous health issues, including neurological disorders, eye diseases, skin irritation, etc. This review describes the in-depth health beneficial effects of lutein. As yet, a minimal amount of literature has been undertaken to consider all its promising bioactivities. The step-by-step biosynthesis of lutein has also been taken into account in this review. Besides, this review demonstrates the drug interactions of lutein with β-carotene, as well as safety concerns and dosage. The potential benefits of lutein have been assessed against neurological disorders, eye diseases, cardiac complications, microbial infections, skin irritation, bone decay, etc. Additionally, recent studies ascertained the significance of lutein nanoformulations in the amelioration of eye disorders, which are also considered in this review. Moreover, a possible approach for the use of lutein in bioactive functional foods will be discussed.

Abstract
Lutein has been used as a dietary supplement for the treatment of eye diseases, especially age-related macular degeneration. For oral formulations, we investigated lutein stability in artificial set-ups mimicking different physiological conditions and found that lutein was degraded over time under acidic conditions. To enhance the stability of lutein upon oral intake, we developed enteric-coated lutein solid dispersions (SD) by applying a polymer, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS-LF), through a solvent-controlled precipitation method. The SD were characterized in crystallinity, morphology, and drug entrapment. In the dissolution profile of lutein SD, a F80 formulation showed resistance toward the acidic environment under simulated gastric conditions while exhibiting a bursting drug release under simulated intestinal conditions. Our results highlight the potential use of HPMCAS-LF as an effective matrix to enhance lutein bioavailability during oral delivery and to provide novel insights into the eye-care supplement industry, with direct benefits for the health of patients.

Abstract
Lutein is a challenging compound to incorporate into food, as it is poorly soluble and unstable in aqueous solutions. In this study, the aim was to prepare stable encapsulates of lutein and lutein esters using feasible and straightforward techniques. Fine suspensions based on polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate and medium-chain triglyceride oil micelle-like units with 3.45% lutein esters or 1.9% lutein equivalents provided high encapsulation efficiencies of 79% and 83%, respectively. Lutein encapsulated in fine suspensions showed superior stability, as 86% was retained within the formulation over 250 days at 25 °C in the dark. Under the same storage conditions, only 38% of lutein remained in corresponding formulations. Higher encapsulation efficiencies were achieved with lecithin emulsions, at up to 99.3% for formulations with lutein, and up to 91.4% with lutein esters. In lecithin emulsions that were stored for 250 days, 17% and 80% of lutein and lutein esters, respectively, were retained within the formulations.

Abstract
Carotenoids are natural fat-soluble pigments synthesized by plants, algae, fungi and microorganisms. They are responsible for the coloration of different photosynthetic organisms. Although they play a role in photosynthesis, they are also present in non-photosynthetic plant tissues, fungi, and bacteria. These metabolites have mainly been used in food, cosmetics, and the pharmaceutical industry. In addition to their utilization as pigmentation, they have significant therapeutically applications, such as improving immune system and preventing neurodegenerative diseases. Primarily, they have attracted attention due to their antioxidant activity. Several statistical investigations indicated an association between the use of carotenoids in diets and a decreased incidence of cancer types, suggesting the antioxidant properties of these compounds as an important factor in the scope of the studies against oxidative stress. Unusual marine environments are associated with a great chemical diversity, resulting in novel bioactive molecules. Thus, marine organisms may represent an important source of novel biologically active substances for the development of therapeutics. Marine carotenoids (astaxanthin, fucoxanthin, β-carotene, lutein but also the rare siphonaxanthin, sioxanthin, and myxol) have recently shown antioxidant properties in reducing oxidative stress markers. Numerous of bioactive compounds such as marine carotenoids have low stability, are poorly absorbed, and own very limited bioavailability. The new technique is nanoencapsulation, which can be used to preserve marine carotenoids and their original properties during processing, storage, improve their physiochemical properties and increase their health-promoting effects. This review aims to describe the role of marine carotenoids, their potential applications and different types of advanced nanoformulations preventing and treating oxidative stress related disorders.

Abstract
Structuring of vegetable oils has potential application in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. In this study, structuring effects of stearic acid derivatives on sunflower seed oil were systematically investigated by experimental and molecular simulation methods. Stearic acid (SA), 12-hydroxy stearic acid (HSA) and 2-hydroxyethyl stearate (HES) were able to structure sunflower seed oil, among which the structuring ability of HES was reported for the first time. The oleogel formed with HSA exhibited good mechanical properties (such as hardness, fracturability, adhesiveness, chewiness and storage modulus), which coincided with its highest solid fat content and degree of crystallinity. Oleogels containing SA and HES showed similar mechanical properties. Both the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and independent gradient model (IGM) confirmed that the HSA dimer possessed the strongest interaction during the self-assembly process while the dimers of HES and SA had similar interactions, which could explain their structuring performance.

Abstract
To overcome the poor stability of natural lutein to environmental factors, layered double hydroxide was incorporated by a green mechanical grinding process. The influences of external factors (chemical reagents, heating and light) on the stability of lutein before and after being loaded were evaluated. The results confirmed that lutein was mainly adsorbed on the surface of layered double hydroxide (LDH) via the chemical interaction. Compared with pure lutein, the thermal decomposition of lutein/LDH was improved from 100 °C to 300 °C, and the retention ratio of lutein was increased by about 8.64% and 21.47% after 96 h of light exposure and accelerated degradation, respectively. It is expected that the stable lutein/LDH composites may constitutean additive in animal feed.

Abstract
Abstract
Lutein, a potent dietary carotenoid, has considerable biological activity and confers protection against age-related macular degeneration. Its bioavailability following consumption, however, depends on its rate of degradation. Nanodelivery systems with improved efficacy and stability are currently being developed to increase the bioavailability of lutein. This review examines nutraceutical approaches used in the development of such nanodelivery systems. It describes the methods of lutein preparation, the characteristics of various delivery systems, and the lutein delivery profile. In order to enhance lutein loading, provide electrostatic stabilization, and achieve the controlled release of lutein, adjuvants such as dextran moieties, whey proteins, medium-chain triglycerides, and chitosan polymers can be used to effectively reduce the particle size (< 70 nm) and improve encapsulation efficiency (to 99.5%). The improved bioavailability of lutein via nanocrystals incorporated into rapidly dissolving films for oral consumption is a new area of exploratory research. This review aims to provide clarity about current research aimed at enhancing the bioavailability of lutein through the development of nanodelivery systems.

Abstract
The aim was to investigate rosemary extract with different addition methods affecting the physicochemical stability of WPI-coated lutein emulsions and examine the correlations between lutein degradation and WPI oxidation during storage. First, lutein emulsions containing different concentrations of rosemary extract in the oil phase were prepared. Second, lutein emulsions containing rosemary extract in the oil phase or water phase were studied along with the kinetic reaction of lutein degradation. Moreover, the impact of rosemary extract on the oxidation of WPI and their products was also determined. It was noticed that rosemary extract at 0.05 wt.% exhibited the best protection of lutein. According to the kinetics analysis of lutein degradation, the direct addition of rosemary extract in the oil phase was more suitable for retarding the degradation of lutein in emulsion than the addition in the aqueous phase due to it being partitioned at the interface. Meanwhile, it was revealed that the addition of rosemary extract in the water phase exhibited better inhibition of the WPI oxidation than addition in the oil phase. The understanding of the association and driving forces of rosemary extract in emulsion systems may be useful for the application of rosemary extract in multicomponent food systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lutein has been of great interest to the food processing and pharmaconutrient industries owing to its beneficial effects on human health. However, lutein is very sensitive to heat, light, pH and oxidative conditions, which limits its application in food systems. The present study aimed to prepare lutein-alginate microspheres by a calcium chloride gelation method with the purpose of improving the stability and antioxidant abilities of lutein. RESULTS The loading capacity of lutein in the microspheres was approximately 5.3% (w/w) and the entrapment efficiency was about 63%. The loaded microspheres were nearly spherical with an average size of 150 μm. They exhibited a crimped surface by scanning electron microscopy. The lutein was in amorphous state by X-ray powder diffraction. Analysis by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and molecular docking revealed an intermolecular hydrogen bond interaction between lutein and sodium alginate. In vitro release experiments showed that the microspheres presented slower release at acidic conditions than at neutral intestinal conditions. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity of the microencapsulated lutein was higher than that of free lutein. The stability of lutein in the microspheres was improved significantly when compared with that of free lutein at various temperatures. CONCLUSION The present work successfully developed well-protected lutein-alginate microspheres. This indicates that it is feasible to use microspheres loaded with lutein as antioxidant functional ingredients in food products. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) flower is rich in lutein ester with many health-promoting activities. In this study, the effects of vegetable oil type and extracting the temperature on the extraction efficiency of lutein ester in the marigold flower were evaluated. Then, the structuring of the lutein ester-loaded sunflower oil with the addition of different amounts of monostearin and cooling temperatures (4 and 20°C) was investigated. The XRD analysis suggested that these oleogels were stabilized by the network formed by monostearin crystals in the sunflower oil. The textural properties (firmness, cohesiveness, and hardness) of oleogels were positively related to the monostearin dosage, but negatively related to the cooling temperature. According to the rheological results, the oleogels belonged to the pseudoplastic gel and their gelation temperature (Tg ) was only related to the concentration of monostearin. The light stability of lutein ester in the oleogels was also significantly improved in a monostearin dosage-dependent manner. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The edible lutein ester-loaded oleogel for foods developed by structuring the sunflower oil with monostearin is introduced in this study. Its texture and rheological properties can be adjusted to cater to different requirements in the food industry by changing the monostearin dosage and cooling temperature. This study provides a reference for the development of other liposoluble nutraceuticals.

β-Carotene solid dispersion prepared by hot-melt technology improves its solubility in water. Journal of Food Science and Technology 2019; 56:3540-3546.

Abstract
β-Carotene is a member of the carotenoid family and is a red-orange pigment abundantly present in many vegetables and fruits. As an antioxidant, it eliminates excessive reactive oxygen species generated in the body. Accordingly, it has potential to be used in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries. β-Carotene has a very low water solubility and low bioavailability; thus, there is a need to develop techniques to overcome these issues. In this study, we aimed to enhance the water solubility of β-carotene by using hot-melt technology, a type of solid dispersions technology. When preparing β-carotene solid dispersion using this method, suitable conditions for the emulsifiers and mixing ratios were investigated using water solubility as an index. Setting the weight ratio of β-carotene:polyvinylpyrrolidone:sucrose fatty acid ester to 10%:70%:20% resulted in the poorly-water soluble β-carotene showing improved water solubility (120 μg/mL). The physicochemical properties of the optimized β-carotene solid dispersion were analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and powder X-ray diffraction. The solid dispersion was found to have an amorphous structure. The improved solubility observed for β-carotene in the solid dispersions developed in this work may make these dispersions useful as additives in foods or in nutraceutical formulations.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of heteroaggregation (HA) on the physicochemical stability and the formation of volatile substances of DHA emulsions was investigated. HA-DHA emulsions were produced by combination of lactoferrin (LF)-DHA and soy protein isolate (SPI)-DHA emulsions at pH 6.0. Zeta-potentials, droplet sizes, stability, and microstructures were measured as a function of different ratios of LF-DHA to SPI-DHA droplets. DHA oxidation of single and HA emulsions was determined through measurements of lipid hydroperoxides, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, and the formation of volatile substances. LF-DHA to SPI-DHA droplets ratios of 5:5, 4:6, and 3:7 formed stable emulsions. The lowest zeta-potential, biggest droplet size, and optimum physical stability of heteroaggregated emulsion occurred at a 5:5 of LF-DHA to SPI-DHA droplet ratio. Microstructure behavior indicated that the HA emulsions (LF-DHA droplets/SPI-DHA droplets = 5:5) formed specific three-dimensional uniform networks. The formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, lipid hydroperoxides, and volatile compounds including hexanal and ( E, E)-2,4-heptadienal decreased in HA compared to single emulsions. The results indicated that the physicochemical stability of DHA emulsions was enhanced and that the formation of volatile substances was inhibited by HA. It thus demonstrated the utilization of HA to improve the stability of bioactive compounds in emulsions.

Abstract
It was reported that the controlled heteroaggregation of oppositely charged lactoferrin (LF)-lutein droplets and whey protein isolate (WPI)-DHA droplets enhanced the physicochemical properties of emulsions. The effect of the unadsorbed proteins on the physicochemical properties of the heteroaggregates of emulsions has not been clear. Therefore, the effects of unadsorbed proteins on the physicochemical stability of heteroaggregates of LF-lutein droplets and WPI-DHA droplets were investigated. The particle size, zeta-potential, transmission-physical stability, microstructure were observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and cryo-scanning electron microscopy (cryo-SEM) and the chemical stability (lutein degradation and DHA oxidation) of the unwashed and washed heteroaggregates were measured. The results showed that compared with unwashed emulsions, the particle sizes and instability indexes of WPI-DHA emulsions, heteroaggregated LF-lutein/WPI-DHA emulsions and LF-lutein emulsions changed after washing. The instability index of washed-1 heteroaggregated LF-lutein/WPI-DHA emulsion was 10.5 times greater compared with the unwashed samples. The microstructure images showed that the washed single and heteroaggregated emulsions resulted in creaming. The unadsorbed proteins had a great protective effect on the physical stability of the emulsions, especially for the heteroaggregated LF-lutein/WPI-DHA emulsion. The degradation rate of lutein, lipid hydroperoxides and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) values of DHA in washed single and heteroaggregated emulsions were higher than those of the unwashed samples. This proved that the unadsorbed proteins dominated the physicochemical stabilities of heteroaggregates. This laid the foundation for the study of a delivery system of functional component heteroaggregates.

Abstract
Lutein is one of the most important carotenoids that can be utilized in foods as a natural pigment and nutraceutical ingredient to improve eye health. However, its utilization is limited due to its poor solubility. Chemically, the highly unsaturated structure of lutein makes it extremely susceptible to light, oxygen, heat, and pro-oxidants and therefore easily oxidized, decomposed or dissociated. In this study, we aimed to imbed natural lutein to improve its storage stability and enhance its water dispersibility. As two commonly studied water-soluble and water-insoluble food-grade surfactants, lecithin and sodium caseinate (NaCas) were chosen as the wall materials, and lutein-loaded lecithin microcapsules and NaCas microcapsules were prepared, the results revealed the lutein-loaded NaCas microcapsules not only exhibited better solubility and stability than those of lutein-loaded lecithin microcapsules, but also were more stable when stored at 4 °C, 25 °C, 37 °C. Moreover, the lutein-loaded NaCas microcapsules were more easily absorbed by the intestinal Caco-2 cells than natural lutein. Considering the dispersibility, stability and cell absorption effect, the NaCas-based microparticle is a potential carrier for lutein.

Abstract
Lutein, a xanthophyll, is associated to decreased risk of age-related macular degeneration, atherosclerosis and other diseases (Bovier et al., 2013; El-raey, Ibrahim, & Eldahshan, 2013). When lutein is extracted, it becomes highly unstable, reducing its functionality as an antioxidant. The aim of this research was to improve the stability of lutein using maltodextrin, arabic gum and a modified starch, to obtain micro-particles using spray-drying. Each of the formulations was characterized in terms of yield, encapsulation efficiency, particle size distribution, water activity and moisture content. The formulations with arabic gum (100%) and arabic gum:maltodextrin:modified starch (33.3:33.3:33.3%), with encapsulation efficiencies of 91.94 ± 6.88 and 65.72 ± 0.93%, respectively, were selected to study stability at 45 °C and 75% RH (relative humidity). Based on our results, encapsulation could be considered as an alternative for the generation of high value-added functional ingredients that can be used in different industries.

Abstract
Lutein is a hydrophobic carotenoid that has multiple health functions. However, the application of lutein is limited due to its poor solubility in water and instability under certain conditions during storage. Hereby we generated lutein loaded nano-emulsions using whey protein isolate (WPI) or polymerized whey protein isolate (PWP) with assistance of high intensity ultrasound and evaluate their stability during storage at different conditions. We measured the particle size, zeta-potential, physical stability and lutein content change. Results showed that the PWP based nano-emulsion system was not stable in the tested Oil/Water/Ethanol system indicated by the appearance of stratification within only one week. The WPI based nano-emulsion system showed stable physiochemical stability during the storage at 4°C. The lutein content of the system was reduced by only 4% after four weeks storage at 4°C. In conclusion, our whey protein based nano-emulsion system provides a promising strategy for encapsulation of lutein or other hydrophobic bioactive molecules to expand their applications.

Encapsulation of lutein in liposomes using supercritical carbon dioxide. Food Res Int 2017; 100:168-179.

Abstract
Liposomes loaded with lutein were prepared utilizing supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2). The effects of pressure, depressurization rate, temperature and lutein-to-lipid ratio on particle size distribution, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency (EE), bioactive loading, morphology, phase transition and crystallinity were investigated. Liposomes prepared by the SC-CO2 method had a particle size of 147.6±1.9nm-195.4±2.3nm, an encapsulation efficiency of 56.7±0.7%-97.0±0.8% and a zeta potential of -54.5±1.2mV to -61.7±0.6mV. A higher pressure (200-300bar) and depressurization rate (90-200bar/min) promoted a higher encapsulation of lutein whereas the lutein-to-lipid ratio had the dominant effect on the morphology of vesicles along with size distribution and EE. X-ray diffraction data implied a substantial drop in the crystallinity of lutein upon its redistribution in the liposome membranes. Differential scanning calorimetry indicated a broadened phase transition upon the simultaneous rearrangement of lutein and phospholipid molecules into liposomal vesicles. The SC-CO2 method resulted in particle characteristics highly associated with the ability of CO2 to disperse phospholipids and lutein molecules. It offers a promising approach to use dense phase CO2 to homogenize hydrophobic or amphiphilic aggregates suspended in an aqueous medium and regulate the vesicular characteristics via pressure and depressurization rate. The SC-CO2 method has potential for scalable production of liposomal nanovesicles with desirable characteristics and free of organic solvents.
