JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:5064-5076. [PMID: 38284773 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13340] [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: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pickering emulsions stabilized by multicomponent particles have attracted increasing attention. Research on characterizing the digestion and health benefit effects of these emulsions in the human gastrointestinal tract are quite limited. This work aims to reveal the digestive characteristics of media-milled purple sweet potato particle-stabilized Pickering emulsions (PSPP-Es) during in vitro digestion and colonic fermentation. RESULTS The media-milling process improved the in vitro digestibility and fermentability of PSPP-Es by reaching afree fatty acids release rate of 43.11 ± 4.61% after gastrointestinal digestion and total phenolic content release of 101.00 ± 1.44 μg gallic acid equivalents/mL after fermentation. In addition, PSPP-Es exhibited good antioxidative activity (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and ferric reducing antioxidant power assays), α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (half-maximal inhibitory concentration: 6.70%, v/v), and prebiotic effects, reaching a total short-chain fatty acids production of 9.90 ± 0.12 mol L-1, boosting the growth of Akkermansia, Bifidobacterium, and Blautia and inhibiting the growth of Escherichia-Shigella. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that the media-milling process enhances the potential health benefits of purple sweet potato particle-stabilized Pickering emulsions, which is beneficial for their application as a bioactive component delivery system in food and pharmaceutical products. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Geng S, Wang Y, Liu B. Fabrication, characterization and application of Pickering emulsion gels stabilized by defatted grape seed powder. Food Chem X 2024; 22:101476. [PMID: 38813458 PMCID: PMC11134537 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101476] [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: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 05/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
The feasibility of defatted grape seed powder (DGSP) stabilizing Pickering emulsion gels as butter substitute was investigated. The Pickering emulsion gel was constructed using DGSP through high-speed homogenization, and the effects of particle concentration (c) and oil-phase (Medium chain triglyceride) volume fraction (φ) on its structure and properties were investigated. Its application as a butter substitute was also evaluated. The results showed that DGSP had various particle shapes, a wide particle size distribution (3-130 μm), and a three-phase contact angle of 128.9 ± 2.3°. The O/W Pickering emulsion gels with φ ≥ 60% could be obtained at c ≥ 2%. The droplet diameter was negatively correlated with c and positively correlated with φ, while the gel strength was positively related to c and φ. The resulting emulsion gel demonstrated solid-like viscoelastic behavior and pseudoplasticity, and had the potential to serve as a butter substitute. The results can promote the application of grape seeds in food.

Abstract
To develop natural complex materials as starch-dominated emulsifiers, pregelatinization was conducted on potato flour. The effects of gelatinization degrees (GDs, 0 %-50 %) on the structural characteristics, physicochemical properties, and emulsifying potentials of potato flour were investigated. Increasing GD of potato flour promoted protein aggregation on starch granules surfaces and transformed starch semicrystalline structures into melted networks. The emulsion stabilized with 50 % GD potato flour exhibited excellent storage stability (7 d) and gel-like behavior. With increasing GD from 0 to 50 %, the respective apparent viscosities and elastic moduli of emulsion increased from 21.4 Pa to 1126.7 Pa, and from 0.133 Pa·s to 1176.6 Pa·s, promoting the formation of a stable network structure in the emulsion. Fourier transform infrared spectra from emulsions with a continuous phase of >20 % GD displayed a new peak around 1740 cm-1, suggesting improved covalent interactions between droplets, thereby facilitating emulsion stability. Confocal laser scanning microscopy images indicated that droplets could be anchored in the melted networks and broken starch granules, inhibiting droplets coalescence. These results suggest that pregelatinization is a viable strategy for customizing natural starch-dominated emulsions.

In vitro gastrointestinal digestion and colonic fermentation of media-milled black rice particle-stabilized Pickering emulsion: Phenolic release, bioactivity and prebiotic potential. Food Chem 2024; 432:137174. [PMID: 37625305 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023]
Abstract
This is a pioneer study that investigated the digestive characteristics of Pickering emulsions stabilized by media-milled black rice particles during in vitro digestion and colonic fermentation. Free fatty acid release of the emulsions improved from 28.42 ± 3.13% to 33.68 ± 4.05% after media milling. The phenolics released from media-milled sample were close to those from unground sample. Media-milled sample exhibited higher DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging ability and α-glucosidase inhibition rate than unground sample. Media milling increased the generation of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) during colonic fermentation, especially acetic acid (23% improvement in media-milled sample over unground sample). It also inhibited the growth of harmful bacteria namely Escherichia Shigella and Streptococcus, and promoted the growth of beneficial bacteria including Bifidobacterium and Blautia. These findings revealed that media-milled black rice particle-stabilized Pickering emulsions possessed intrinsic bioactivity and prebiotic potentials in the gastrointestinal tract for the first time.

Abstract
Anthocyanins are a specific group of molecules found in nature that have recently received increasing attention due to their interesting biological and colorimetric properties that have been successfully applied in several fields such as food preservation and biomedicine. Consequently, reviews devoted to a general overview of these flavonoids have proliferated in recent years. Meanwhile, the incorporation of anthocyanins into polymeric systems has become an interesting strategy to widen the applicability of these molecules and develop new smart and functional polymers in the above cited areas. However, anthocyanin-based polymers have been scarcely reviewed in the literature. Accordingly, this review aims to be a systematic summary of the most recent approaches for the incorporation of anthocyanins into macro-, micro-, or nanostructured polymers. Moreover, this work describes the fundamentals of the applicability of smart anthocyanin-based polymers and offers an updated review of their most interesting applications as sensors, biological regulators, and active materials.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions was successfully fabricated using ball-milled agar particles with sizes and sulfate content around 7 μm and 0.62 %, respectively. These particles were obtained through a simple media-milling process using agar powders initially sized at 120 μm. The lamellated agar is aggregated into a mass after the milling process. The surface charge and hydrophobicity of the ball-milled agar particles were characterized through zeta potential and contact angle measurements, respectively. The droplet size of Pickering emulsions was related to oil fraction and particle concentration, ranging from approximately 45 μm to 80 μm. Ball-milled agar stabilized emulsions were sensitive to pH and salt conditions. The results of confocal laser scanning microscopy and cryo-SEM showed that at low particle concentrations and oil fractions, ball-milled agar stabilized the emulsions by dispersing particles on the surface of the oil droplets through electrostatic repulsion. Conversely, ball-milled agar stabilized the emulsions under high particle concentrations and oil fractions by forming a gel network structure to bind the oil droplets. In this research, this developed method provides the basis for the high-value application of agar and a new idea for preparing stable food-grade Pickering emulsion-based functional foods using raw-food material without surface wettability.

Abstract
The health benefits of anthocyanins have attracted extensive research interest. However, anthocyanins are sensitive to certain environmental and gastrointestinal conditions and have low oral bioavailability. It has been reported that delivery systems made in different ways could improve the stability, bioavailability and bioactivity of anthocyanins. This present review summarizes the factors affecting the stability of anthocyanins and the reasons for poor bioavailability, and various technologies for encapsulation of anthocyanins including microcapsules, nanoemulsions, microemulsions, Pickering emulsions, nanoliposomes, nanoparticles, hydrogels and co-assembly with amphiphilic peptides were discussed. In particular, the effects of these encapsulation technologies on the stability, bioavailability and bioactivities of anthocyanins in vitro and in vivo experiments are reviewed in detail, which provided scientific insights for anthocyanins encapsulation methods. However, the application of anthocyanins in food industry as well as the biological fate and functional pathways in vivo still need to be further explored.

Abstract
Black garlic is rich in brown pigments and Maillard reaction products are known for antioxidant activity and health promoting effects. In the present investigation, we report a facile strategy for fabricating low-fat innovative mayonnaise (IM) using black garlic particles (BGP) as a natural pigment, and a functional ingredient. Whey protein concentrate and high methoxyl pectin at optimized concentrations were utilized for fabricating an IM which served as a control. IM5 and IM10 were ternary composites constituting whey protein, high methoxyl pectin along with BGP (@5 and 10% respectively). The formulation IM10 (BGP @10%) showed high firmness and low spreadability quotient, hence IM5 was taken forward for fabrication for two more variants namely IM-J (using low methoxyl pectin (LMP) from jackfruit peels) and IM-C (LMP from citrus). The effect of BGP and LMP on the functional quality of IM was confirmed through zeta potential, antioxidant activity, textural, rheological, and microscopic evaluation. Fluorescence microscopy confirmed the presence of solid particles over the fat phase of IM, while interaction of pectin and whey proteins was demonstrated through fluorescence emission spectroscopy which clearly displayed stabilization of IM through the formation of Pickering emulsion. Pronounced difference in color and flavor score with BGP established high sensory scores in IM5, IM-J, and IM-C. Rheology supported the stabilizing effects of LMP in IM-J and IM-C in terms of speedy recovery of thixotropy, with recovering storage modulus (G'). Enhanced viscosity of IM-C and IM-J further corroborated the dual effect of LMP and BGP in improving emulsifying and functional quality of IM. Enhanced oxidative stability of IM was established by reduced peroxide and Totox values. Overall our results suggest the promising applications of black garlic as functional ingredient in protein and pectin based Pickering emulsions.

Abstract
In this study, a Gracilaria lemaneiformis slurry (GLS) was prepared using low-energy mechanical shearing. The resulting GLS, which was rich in polysaccharides, was utilized as an effective stabilizer for oil-in-water emulsions. The microstructures and stability of the resulting emulsions were controlled by adjusting the emulsion formulations, including Gracilaria lemaneiformis (GL) mass concentration and oil volume fraction (φ). The optimized GL mass concentration and φ conditions yielded high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) with gel-like textures. Moreover, the presence of exogenous Ca2+ resulted in bridging structures in the emulsions, enhancing their viscoelasticity and forming a robust physical barrier against droplet coalescence. Our findings highlight the effectiveness of the GLS as an emulsifier for stabilizing HIPEs. Notably, this method relies solely on physical processes, aligning with the desirability of avoiding chemical additives, particularly in the food industry.

Abstract
Pickering emulsion gels have potential application as solid fat substitutes and nutraceutical carriers in foods, but a safe and easily available food-derived particle emulsifier is the bottleneck that limits their practical application. In this study, the function of sorghum flour as a particle emulsifier to stabilize the oil-in-water (O/W) Pickering emulsion gels with medium chain triglycerides (MCT) in the oil phase was introduced. Sorghum flour had suitable size distribution (median diameter, 21.47 μm) and wettability (contact angle, 38°) and could reduce the interfacial tension between MCT and water. The oil phase volume fraction (φ) and the addition amount of sorghum flour (c) had significant effects on the formation of Pickering emulsion gels. When c ≥ 5%, Pickering emulsion gels with φ = 70% could be obtained. Microstructure analysis indicated that sorghum flour not only played an emulsifying role at the O/W interface but also prevented oil droplets from coalescing through its viscous effect in the aqueous phase. With increases in c, the droplet size of the emulsion gel decreased, its mechanical properties gradually strengthened, and its protective effect on β-carotene against UV irradiation also improved.
