Improved encapsulation efficiency and storage stability of lutein by soy protein isolate nanocarriers with thermal and trypsin treatments. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2025; 105:1057-1068. [PMID: 39268595 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13896] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/31/2024] [Indexed: 09/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Encapsulation of bioactive compounds within protein-based nanoparticles has garnered considerable attention in the food and pharmaceutical industries because of its potential to enhance stability and delivery. Soy protein isolate (SPI) has emerged as a promising candidate, prompting the present study aiming to modify its properties through controlled thermal and trypsin treatments for improved encapsulation efficiency (EE) of lutein and its storage stability. RESULTS The EE of lutein nanoparticles encapsulated using SPI trypsin hydrolysates (SPIT) with three varying degrees of hydrolysis (4.11%, 6.91% and 10.61% for SPIT1, SPIT2 and SPIT3, respectively) increased by 12.00%, 15.78% and 18.59%, respectively, compared to SPI. Additionally, the photostability of SPIT2 showed a remarkable increase of 38.21% compared to SPI. The superior encapsulation efficiency and photostability of SPIT2 was attributed to increased exposure of hydrophobic groups, excellent antioxidant activity and uniform particle stability, despite exhibiting lower binding affinity to lutein compared to SPI. Furthermore, in SPIT2, the protein structure unfolded, with minimal impact on overall secondary structure upon lutein addition. CONCLUSION The precise application of controlled thermal and trypsin treatments to SPI has been shown to effectively produce protein nanoparticles with substantially improved encapsulation efficiency for lutein and enhanced storage stability of the encapsulated lutein. These findings underscore the potential of controlled thermal and trypsin treatments to modify protein properties effectively and offer significant opportunities for expanding the applications of protein-based formulations across diverse fields. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

[PMID: 38943966 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140219] [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: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/22/2024] [Indexed: 07/01/2024]
Abstract
Diacylglycerol (DAG) has garnered attention for its safe and nutritious qualities, and its utilization in emulsion systems to encapsulate hydrophobic bioactives is anticipated to enhance their bioaccessibility. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the influence of DAG oil as a carrier on the stability and digestive characteristics of nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) containing lycopene (LYC). The results indicated that DAG oil demonstrated superior storage and heating stability in comparison to triacylglycerol (TAG) oil. Furthermore, NLCs formulated with DAG oil exhibited a faster rate of lipolysis (>76.3%) and higher loading capacity (1.48%), resulting in an approximate 11% enhancement in the bioaccessibility of LYC (reaching up to 31.4%). DAG oils show considerable potential for enhancing and prolonging the properties and bioactivity of NLC carriers, thereby boosting bioaccessibility. The incorporation of DAG oil in food systems holds promise for enriching their functionality over traditional TAG oil.

Lazăr AR, Pușcaș A, Tanislav AE, Mureșan V. Bioactive compounds delivery and bioavailability in structured edible oils systems. Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2024; 23:e70020. [PMID: 39437192 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.70020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 08/04/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 10/25/2024]
Abstract
The health benefits of bioactive compounds are dependent on the amount of intake as well as on the amount of these compounds that become bioavailable and bioaccessible. Various systems have been developed to deliver and increase the bioaccessibility of bioactive compounds. This review explores the impact of gelled (oleogels, bigels, emulgels, emulsions, hydrogels, and hydrogel beads), micro-(gels, particles, spheres, capsules, emulsions, and solid lipid microparticles) and nanoencapsulated systems (nanoparticles, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructured lipid carriers, nanoemulsions, liposomes, and nanoliposomes) on the digestibility and bioavailability of lipophilic and hydrophilic bioactives. Structurant molecules, the oil type, antioxidants, emulsifiers, and coatings in delivery systems with promising potential in food applications are critically discussed. The release and bio-accessibility of bioactive compounds in gelled systems are influenced by various factors, such as the type and concentration of gelators, the gelator-to-oil ratio, the type of antioxidant, the network of the system, and its hydrophobicity. The stability, bioaccessibility, and controlled release of bioactives were improved in structured emulsions. Several variables, including wall material, oil/water ratios, encapsulation process, and pH conditions, can affect the bioactives release in microencapsulated systems. Factors like coating type and core-to-wall ratio impact the stability and release of core components. The encapsulating material, the encapsulation technology, and the nature of the nanomaterials all have an impact on the bioaccessibility of nanoencapsulated systems. Nanoliposomes provide enhanced stability and absorption. In general, all encapsulated systems have shown great potential in improving the distribution and availability of bioactive compounds.

Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:10382. [PMID: 39408712 PMCID: PMC11477127 DOI: 10.3390/ijms251910382] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2024] [Revised: 09/20/2024] [Accepted: 09/24/2024] [Indexed: 10/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an innovative cancer treatment that utilizes light. When light irradiates, purpurin-18-N-propylimide methyl ester (P18 N PI ME) generates reactive oxygen species that destroy cancer cells. The hydrophobic nature of P18 N PI ME presents challenges regarding its aggregation in the body, which can affect its effectiveness. This study aimed to enhance the bioavailability and effectiveness of cancer treatment by synthesizing P18 N PI ME and formulating P18 N PI ME-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs). The efficacy of PDT was estimated using the 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) assay and photocytotoxicity tests on the HeLa (human cervical carcinoma) and A549 (human lung carcinoma) cell lines. The P18 N PI ME-loaded SLNs demonstrated particle sizes in the range of 158.59 nm to 248.43 nm and zeta potentials in the range of -15.97 mV to -28.73 mV. These SLNs exhibited sustained release of P18 N PI ME. DPBF analysis revealed enhanced PDT effects with SLNs containing P18 N PI ME compared with standalone P18 N PI MEs. Photocytotoxicity assays indicated toxicity under light irradiation but no toxicity in the dark. Furthermore, the smallest-sized formulation exhibited the most effective photodynamic activity. These findings indicate the potential of P18 N PI ME-loaded SLNs as promising strategies for PDT in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Plant proteins have gained significant attention over animal proteins due to their low carbon footprint, balanced nutrition, and high sustainability. These attributes make plant protein nanocarriers promising for applications in drug delivery, nutraceuticals, functional foods, and other areas. Zein, a major by-product of corn starch processing, is inexpensive and widely available. Its unique self-assembly characteristics have led to its extensive use in various food and drug systems. Zein's functional tunability allows for excellent performance in loading and transporting bioactive substances. Lutein offers numerous bioactive functions, such as antioxidant and vision protection, but suffers from poor chemical stability and low bioavailability. Nano-embedding technology can construct various zein-loaded lutein nanodelivery systems to address these issues. This review provides an overview of recent advances in the construction of zein-loaded lutein nanosystems. It discusses the fundamental properties of these systems; systematically introduces preparation techniques, structural characterization, and functional properties; and analyzes and predicts the target-controlled release and bioaccessibility of zein-loaded lutein nanosystems. The interactions and synergistic effects between Zein and lutein in the nanocomplexes are examined to elucidate the formation mechanism and conformational relationship of zein-lutein nanoparticles. The physical and chemical properties of Zein are closely related to the molecular structure. Zein and its modified products can encapsulate and protect lutein through various methods, creating more stable and efficient zein-loaded lutein nanosystems. Additionally, embedding lutein in Zein and its derivatives enhances lutein's digestive stability, solubility, antioxidant properties, and overall bioavailability.

Abstract
Simvastatin (SVA) is a well-prescribed drug for treating cardiovascular and hypercholesterolemia. Due to the extensive hepatic first-pass metabolism and poor solubility, its oral bioavailability is 5%. Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and hydrogel-coated SLNs were investigated to overcome the limited bioavailability of SVA. Four different lipids used alone or in combination with two stabilizers were employed to generate 13 SLNs. Two concentrations of chitosan (CS) and alginate (AL) were coating materials. SLNs were studied for particle size, zeta potential, in vitro release, rheology, and bioavailability. The viscosities of both the bare and coated SLNs exhibited shear-thinning behavior. The viscosity of F11 (Chitosan 1%) at 20 and 40 rpm were 424 and 168 cp, respectively. F11 had a particle size of 260.1 ± 3.72 nm with a higher release; the particle size of F11-CS at 1% was 524.3 ± 80.31 nm. In vivo studies illustrated that F11 had the highest plasma concentration when compared with the SVA suspension and coated chitosan (F11 (Chitosan 1%)). Greater bioavailability is measured as (AUC0→24), as compared to uncoated ones. The AUC for F11, F11-CS 1%, and the SVA suspension were 1880.4, 3562.18, and 272 ng·h/mL, respectively. Both bare and coated SLNs exhibited a significantly higher relative bioavailability when compared to that from the control SVA.

Abstract
The purpose of this work is to explore the feasibility of water in water (W/W) emulsion stabilized with liposomes as a water-soluble nutraceutical carrier. A W/W emulsion system composed of xanthan gum (XG) and whey protein isolate (WPI) with different amount (0.2 %, 0.4 %, and 0.6 %) of liposomes as stabilizer was constructed. Fast green staining observation showed that XG was the internal phase and WPI was the continuous phase respectively. Confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed that with the increase of liposomes concentration from 0.4 % to 0.6 %, the interface thickness of the W/W emulsions was approximately twice that of the 0.2 % liposome-stabilized emulsion.The emulsions remained stable under neutral and weakly alkaline conditions. The droplet sizes of the emulsions were little affected by ionic strength. The binding constant (Ka) for XG to riboflavin (12.22) was approximately 5 times that for WPI to riboflavin (2.46), suggesting that riboflavin had a stronger binding affinity for the XG molecule compared to WPI. The fluorescence spectra of riboflavin showed that 0.4 % and 0.6 % liposome stabilized emulsions could effectively retard the photodegradation of riboflavin under ultraviolet irradiation. The successful construction of liposomes stabilized W/W emulsion provides a novel strategy for delivering water-soluble bioactive substances.

Abstract
Antioxidant nutraceuticals can be found in several dietary sources and have been utilized for various medical benefits including health promotion, disease prevention, and support for treatment of acute and/or chronic diseases. Nonetheless, there are some limitations in delivering antioxidants via oral administration such as low solubility and permeability, pH and enzyme degradation, and instability of the compounds along the gastrointestinal tract leading to low bioavailability. In order to tackle these challenges, the utilization of lipid nanoparticles has numerous advantages to the escalating delivery system of antioxidants in nutraceuticals across the gastrointestinal tract barrier. Nowadays, several types of lipid nanoparticles can be used in antioxidant nutraceutical delivery systems through the oral route, namely solid lipid nanoparticles and nanostructured lipid carriers. This review article aims to provide notable information on the importance and applications of lipid nanoparticles in antioxidant delivery systems from nutraceuticals by an oral route. The mechanism in enhancing antioxidant compound transport across the gastrointestinal tract can occur by elevating loading capacity, improving chemical and physical stability, and increasing its bioavailability. To date, lipid nanoparticle vehicles have been developed to improve the delivery of antioxidant compounds to enhance bioavailability via oral routes. Lipid nanoparticles have remarkable benefits in delivering antioxidant nutraceuticals via oral administration. Hence, scale-up and commercialization of antioxidant nutraceutical-loaded lipid nanoparticles have been a potential technology in recent years. Subsequently, several vegetable and natural oils with antioxidant activity can also be utilized for nanoparticle formulation lipid components to increase nutraceuticals' antioxidant properties and bioavailability.

Abstract
Topical administration of curcumin (CUR), a natural polyphenol with potent anti-inflammation and analgesic activities, provides a potential approach for local skin diseases. However, the drug delivery efficiency is highly limited by skin barriers and poor bioavailability of CUR. Herein, we propose hydrogel containing CUR-encapsulated dipeptide-1-modified nanostructured lipid carriers (CUR-DP-NLCs gel) to enhance topical drug delivery, and improve the topical therapeutic effect. The prepared CUR-DP-NLCs were characterized and were suitably dispersed into the Pluronic F127 hydrogel for topical application. The optimized CUR-DP-NLCs had a particle size of 152.6 ± 3.47 nm, a zeta potential of -33.1 ± 1.46 mV, an entrapment efficiency of 99.83 ± 0.14%, and a spherical morphology. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies confirmed that CUR was successfully entrapped by the NLCs in an amorphous form. CUR-DP-NLCs gel exhibited sustained release over 48 h and significantly increased the skin retention of CUR. In vitro skin retention of CUR with CUR-DP-NLCs gel was 2.14 and 2.85 times higher than that of unmodified NLCs gel and free CUR, respectively. Fluorescence microscopy imaging revealed the formed nanoparticles accumulated in the hair follicles with prolonged retention time to form a drug reservoir. The hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that CUR-DP-NLCs gel could change the microstructure of skin layers and disturb the skin barriers. After topical administration to mice, CUR-DP-NLCs gel showed better analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities with no potentially hazardous skin irritation. These results concluded that CUR-DP-NLCs gel is a promising strategy to increase topical drug delivery of CUR in the treatment of local skin diseases.

Abstract
Bioactive compounds are highly valuable in the fields of food and medicine, but their application is limited due to easy deterioration after oral or skin administration. In recent years, the use of peptides as delivery systems for bioactive compounds has been intensively researched because of their special physicochemical characteristics. Peptides can be assembled using various preparation methods and can form several composite materials such as hydrogels, micelles, emulsions and particles. The composite material properties are determined by peptides, bioactive compounds and the construction methods employed. Herein, this paper provides a comprehensive review of the peptides used for active ingredients delivery, fabrication methods for creating delivery systems, structures, targeting characteristics, functional activities and mechanism of delivery systems, as well as their absorption and metabolism, which provided theoretical basis and reference for further research and development of functional composites.

Abstract
Procyanidin-amino acid interactions during transmembrane transport cause changes in the structural and physical properties of peptides, which limits further absorption of oligopeptide-advanced glycation end products (AGEs). In this study, glycated casein hydrolysates (GCSHs) were employed to investigate the structure and interaction mechanism of GCSH with lotus seedpod oligomeric procyanidin (LSOPC) complexes in an intestinal environment. LSOPC can interact with GCSH under certain conditions to form hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions to form GCSH-LSOPC complexes. Results showed that procyanidin further leads to the transformation of a GCSH secondary structure and the increase of surface hydrophobicity (H0). The strongest non-covalent interaction between GCSH and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) was due to the polyhydroxy structure of EGCG. Binding site analysis showed that EGCG binds to the internal cavity of P1 to maintain the relative stability of the binding conformation. The antioxidant capacity of GCSH was remarkably elevated by GCSH-LSOPC. This study will provide a new reference for the accurate control of oligopeptide-AGEs absorption by LSOPC in vivo.

Abstract
Contemporary scientific findings revealed that our daily food stuffs are enriched by encrypted bioactive peptides (BPs), evolved by peptide linkage of amino acids or encrypted from the native protein structures. Remarkable to these BPs lies in their potential health benefiting biological activities to serve as nutraceuticals or a lead addition to the development of functional foods. The biological activities of BPs vary depending on the sequence as well as amino acid composition. Existing database records approximately 3000 peptide sequences which possess potential biological activities such as antioxidants, antihypertensive, antithrombotic, anti-adipogenics, anti-microbials, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancerous. The growing evidences suggest that BPs have very low toxicity, higher accuracy, less tissue accretion, and are easily degraded in the disposed environment. BPs are nowadays evolved as biologically active molecules with potential scope to reduce microbial contamination as well as ward off oxidation of foods, amend diverse range of human diseases to enhance the overall quality of human life. Against the clinical and health perspectives of BPs, this review aimed to elaborate current evolution of nutritional potential of BPs, studies pertaining to overcome limitations with respect to special focus on emerging extraction, protection and delivery tools of BPs. In addition, the nano-delivery mechanism of BP and its clinical significance is detailed. The aim of current review is to augment the research in the field of BPs production, identification, characterisation and to speed up the investigation of the incredible potentials of BPs as potential nutritional and functional food ingredient.

One-Pot Self-Assembly of Core-Shell Nanoparticles within Fibers by Coaxial Electrospinning for Intestine-Targeted Delivery of Curcumin. Foods 2023; 12:foods12081623.

Abstract
Nanotechniques for curcumin (Cur) encapsulation provided a potential capability to avoid limitations and improve biological activities in food and pharmaceutics. Different from multi-step encapsulation systems, in this study, zein-curcumin (Z-Cur) core-shell nanoparticles could be self-assembled within Eudragit S100 (ES100) fibers through one-pot coaxial electrospinning with Cur at an encapsulation efficiency (EE) of 96% for ES100-zein-Cur (ES100-Z-Cur) and EE of 67% for self-assembled Z-Cur. The resulting structure realized the double protection of Cur by ES100 and zein, which provided both pH responsiveness and sustained release performances. The self-assembled Z-Cur nanoparticles released from fibermats were spherical (diameter 328 nm) and had a relatively uniform distribution (polydispersity index 0.62). The spherical structures of Z-Cur nanoparticles and Z-Cur nanoparticles loaded in ES100 fibermats could be observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD) revealed that hydrophobic interactions occurred between the encapsulated Cur and zein, while Cur was amorphous (rather than in crystalline form). Loading in the fibermat could significantly enhance the photothermal stability of Cur. This novel one-pot system much more easily and efficiently combined nanoparticles and fibers together, offering inherent advantages such as step economy, operational simplicity, and synthetic efficiency. These core-shell biopolymer fibermats which incorporate Cur can be applied in pharmaceutical products toward the goals of sustainable and controllable intestine-targeted drug delivery.

Abstract
Lutein is critical for protecting the eye against light damage. The low solubility and high sensitivity of lutein to environmental stresses prevent its further application. The hypothesis is that the combination of one water-soluble antioxidant and one oil-soluble antioxidant will be beneficial to improve the stability of lutein emulsions. A low-energy method was performed to prepare lutein emulsions. The combination of a lipid-soluble antioxidant (propyl gallate or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) and a water-soluble antioxidant (tea polyphenol or ascobic acid) were investigated for improving the lutein retention rates. It was shown that the highest lutein retention rate was achieved by using propyl gallate and tea polyphenol, 92.57%, at Day 7. It was proven that the lutein retention rates of emulsions with propyl gallate and tea polyphenol were 89.8%, 73.5% and 55.2% at 4 °C, 25 °C and 37 °C, respectively, at Day 28. The current study is helpful to prepare for the further application of lutein emulsions for ocular delivery.

Abstract
Due to the unstable chemical properties and poor water solubility of carotenoids, their processing adaptation and oral bioavailability are poor, limiting their application in hydrophilic food systems. Lipid-biomacromolecular compounds can be excellent carriers for carotenoid delivery by taking full advantage of the solubilization of lipids to non-polar nutrients and the water dispersion and gastrointestinal controlled release properties of biomacromolecules. This paper reviewed the research progress of lipid-biomacromolecular compounds as encapsulation and delivery carriers of carotenoids and summarized the material selection and preparation methods for biomacromolecular compounds. By considering the interaction between the two, this paper briefly discussed the effect of these compounds on carotenoid water solubility, stability, and bioavailability, emphasizing their delivery effect on carotenoids. Finally, various challenges and future trends of lipid-biomacromolecular compounds as carotenoid delivery carriers were discussed, providing new insight into efficient loading and delivery of carotenoids.

Abstract
Zein is a desired carrier to construct a delivery system for flavonoids. However, studies examining the binding of flavonoids with zein are still inadequate. Therefore, the structure-affinity relationship and mechanism underlying the interaction between flavonoids and zein were investigated using multiple spectroscopy techniques and molecular docking. The UV-vis spectra revealed ground-state complex formation. The fluorescence quenching spectra suggested that flavonoids effectively quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of zein mainly through static quenching. The structure-affinity relationship revealed the key structural elements and preferred substituents at specific sites of flavonoids related to binding affinity with zein. The synchronous, ANS-binding fluorescence and FT-IR spectra confirmed that flavonoids induced a conformational change in zein secondary structure. Additionally, molecular docking further provided a favorable binding conformation and underlined the important role of hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds in their interactions. These findings suggest that different flavonoid structures significantly influence binding behaviors with zein.

Abstract
In this paper, a lutein-glucosyl stevioside (stevia-G)-hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) complex was prepared via an antisolvent precipitation combined with dynamic high pressure microfluidization method. The solubility, microstructure, crystallinity and thermodynamic properties of the freeze-dried powder were investigated, as well as the formation mechanism and the storage stability of the produced complex. When the optimal mass ratio of lutein, stevia-G, and HPMC was 1: 40: 0.5, the apparent solubility of lutein reached 2805.47 ± 24.94 μg·mL-1, which was approximately 5600 times higher than that of lutein crystals. The lutein-stevia-G-HPMC complex formed an amorphous dispersed structure and was in a thermodynamically high energy state. The self-assembled micelle structure of stevia-G and HPMC polymer created a supersaturated system mainly by multiple hydrogen bonding, which promoted maximum lutein dissolving, delayed supersaturated crystallization process, and hindered precipitation. The present results suggested the complex formed by stevia-G and HPMC effectively promote lutein's hydrophilicity and stability.

[PMID: 35685872 PMCID: PMC9172447 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.887064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 04/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
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.

As a renewable resource, the market trend of plant protein has increased significantly in recent years. Compared with animal protein, plant protein production has strong sustainability factors and a lower environmental impact. Many bioactive substances have poor stability, and poor absorption effects limit their application in food. Plant protein-based carriers could improve the water solubility, stability, and bioavailability of bioactive substances by different types of delivery systems. In this review, we present a detailed and concise summary of the effects and advantages of various plant protein-based carriers in the encapsulation, protection, and delivery of bioactive substances. Furthermore, the research progress of food-grade bioactive ingredient delivery systems based on plant protein preparation in recent years is summarized, and some current challenges and future research priorities are highlighted. There are some key findings and conclusions: (i) plant proteins have numerous functions: as carriers for transportation systems, a shell or core of a system, or food ingredients; (ii) plant protein-based carriers could improve the water solubility, stability, and bioavailability of bioactive substances by different types of delivery systems; and (iii) plant protein-based carriers stabilize bioactive substances with potential applications in the food and nutrition fields.

Abstract
Lutein is a functional carotenoid that has a wide range of physiological benefits in humans. However, it easily degrades and becomes inactivated during storage and processing, resulting in low bioavailability. The development of new nanocarriers can effectively improve the stability and biological activity of lutein. In this study, zein hydrolysate (ZH) carriers were glycosylated with glucosamine (GLU) under the action of transglutaminase, and lutein-loaded glycosylated ZH nanoparticles (GZH-LUT) were constructed by liquid–liquid dispersion. The results showed that the GZH-LUT particles had a narrow size distribution in the range of 200–300 nm and a decreased zeta potential and polydispersity index. In particular, GZH trapped lutein more efficiently than ZH. In addition, GZH-LUT had better physical and chemical properties, including better water solubility, oxidative stability, and environmental stability than free lutein and ZH-LUT. These results indicate that glycosylated zein hydrolysate has the potential to be used as a novel protein-based nanocarrier to enhance the solubility and stability of lutein, which can further improve its bioavailability.

Abstract
Nanomedicine and aptamer have excellent potential in giving play to passive and active targeting respectively, which are considered to be effective strategies in the retro-ocular drug delivery system. The presence of closely adjoined tissue structures in the eye makes it difficult to administer the drug in the posterior segment of the eye. The application of nanomedicine could represent a new avenue for the treatment, since it could improve penetration, achieve targeted release, and improve bioavailability. Additionally, a novel type of targeted molecule aptamer with identical objective was proposed. As an emerging molecule, aptamer shows the advantages of penetration, non-toxicity, and high biocompatibility, which make it suitable for ocular drug administration. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the recent studies on the effectiveness of nanoparticles as a drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye. This paper also creatively looks forward to the possibility of the combined application of nanocarriers and aptamers as a new method of targeted drug delivery system in the field of post-ophthalmic therapy.

Nanocarriers for Sustainable Active Packaging: An Overview during and Post COVID-19. COATINGS 2022.

Abstract
Lockdown has been installed due to the fast spread of COVID-19, and several challenges have occurred. Active packaging was considered a sustainable option for mitigating risks to food systems during COVID-19. Biopolymeric-based active packaging incorporating the release of active compounds with antimicrobial and antioxidant activity represents an innovative solution for increasing shelf life and maintaining food quality during transportation from producers to consumers. However, food packaging requires certain physical, chemical, and mechanical performances, which biopolymers such as proteins, polysaccharides, and lipids have not satisfied. In addition, active compounds have low stability and can easily burst when added directly into biopolymeric materials. Due to these drawbacks, encapsulation into lipid-based, polymeric-based, and nanoclay-based nanocarriers has currently captured increased interest. Nanocarriers can protect and control the release of active compounds and can enhance the performance of biopolymeric matrices. The aim of this manuscript is to provide an overview regarding the benefits of released active compound-loaded nanocarriers in developing sustainable biopolymeric-based active packaging with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. Nanocarriers improve physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of the biopolymeric matrix and increase the bioactivity of released active compounds. Furthermore, challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic and a brief post-COVID-19 scenario were also mentioned.

Abstract
To protect walnut peptides from harsh external environments during their storage and digestion, proliposomes loaded with walnut peptides were fabricated using sucrose, trehalose, and mannitol as carriers and lyoprotectants. The physicochemical properties, environmental stability, antioxidant/antibacterial activities, and digestion in vitro of the proliposomes were evaluated. The freshly prepared liposomes were uniform in size, but the hydrated proliposomes showed a more uneven size distribution. The lyoprotectants helped maintain favorable liposome shape during lyophilization. Alongside the lyoprotectants, the walnut peptides further stabilized the lipid bilayer. Proliposomes encapsulation didn't impact the peptides' antioxidant activity. Furthermore, walnut peptides-loaded proliposomes exhibited antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The proliposomes were stable during gastric-phase digestion. The lyoprotectants changed the free fatty acid release behaviors of the proliposomes. These characteristics suggest potential applications for proliposomes as effective delivery systems for biopeptides in food stuffs, thereby protecting bioactivities during storage and passage through the gastrointestinal tract.
