Abstract
The interaction mechanism between soybean protein isolate (SPI) and furan flavor compounds with different structures is studied using spectroscopy, molecular docking, and MD simulation methods. The order of binding ability between SPI and furan flavor compounds is 2-acetylfuran>furfural>5-methylfurfural. The structural differences (position and quantity of methyl groups) of three furan flavor compounds are key factors leading to the different adsorption abilities of SPI for furan flavor compounds. The findings from spectroscopy analyses suggest that the interaction between SPI and furan flavor compounds involves both static and dynamic quenching mechanisms, with static quenching being the main factor. Molecular docking and MD simulations reveal the atomic-level mechanisms underlying the stable binding for SPI and furan flavor compounds at spatiotemporal multiscale. This study provides a theoretical framework for the production and adjustment of meat essence formula in the production of soybean protein-based meat products.

Zein and tannic acid hybrid particles improving physical stability, controlled release properties, and antimicrobial activity of cinnamon essential oil loaded Pickering emulsions.

Abstract
Pickering emulsion loading essential oil has demonstrated a promising strategy as delivery system in food preservation, but localization in stability and antimicrobial activity limits application. In this study, Pickering emulsions co-loaded with tannic acid and cinnamon essential oil (ZTC) have been developed based on zein and tannic acid complexes (ZT) mediated interfacial engineering. Fourier transform infrared, fluorescence spectroscopy, and molecular docking results indicated tannic acid altered the structural of zein. Interfacial tension results indicated that tannic acid accelerated the adsorbed speed of zein particles by decreased interfacial tension (11.99-9.96 mN/m). ZT5 formed a viscoelastic and dense layer in oil-water interface than that for other ZTs, which improved stability and control release performance of ZTC. Furthermore, the ZTC showed an effective antimicrobial activity against spoilage organisms Pseudomonad paralactis MN10 and Lactobacillus sakei VMR17. These findings provide new insight for developing co-loaded multiple antimicrobial agents within Pickering emulsion as a delivery system.

[PMID: 38176146 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138340] [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: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
This present study investigated the masking effect of high methoxyl pectin, xanthan gum, and gum Arabic on the astringency of the traditional herbal formula Triphala and further examined the mechanism of polysaccharide reducing astringency. Results of sensory evaluation and electronic tongue illustrated that 0.6 % pectin, 0.3 % xanthan gum, and 2 % gum Arabic had a substantial deastringent effect. The polyphenols in Triphala are basically hydrolysable tannins, which with high degree of gallic acylation may be the main astringent component of Triphala. Moreover, the three polysaccharides can combine with β-casein through CO and NH groups to form soluble binary complexes and decrease the secondary structure of β-casein. When polysaccharides were added to the Triphala-protein system, polyphenol-protein precipitation was also diminished, and they were capable of forming soluble ternary complexes. Consequently, the competition between polysaccharides and polyphenols for binding salivary proteins and the formation of ternary complexes help decrease the astringency of Triphala.

Abstract
Thermal processing with salt ions is widely used for the production of food products (such as whole grain food) containing protein and anthocyanin. To date, it is largely unexplored how salt ion presence during thermal processing regulates the practical performance of protein/anthocyanin binary system. Here, rice albumin (RA) and black rice anthocyanins (BRA) were used to prepare RA/BRA composite systems as a function of temperature (60-100 °C) and NaCl concentration (10-40 mM) or CaCl2 concentration (20 mM). It was revealed that the spontaneous complexing reaction between RA and BRA was driven by hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds and becomes easier and more favorable at a higher temperature (≤90 °C), excessive temperature (100 °C), however, may result in the degradation of BRA. Moreover, the salt ion presence during thermal processing may bind with RA and BRA, respectively, which could restrict the interaction between BRA and RA. Additionally, the inclusion of Na+ or Ca2+ at 20 mM endowed the binary system with strengthened DPPH radical scavenging capacity (0.95 for Na+ and 0.99 for Ca2+). Notably, Ca2+ performed a greater impact on the stability of the system than Na+.

Abstract
Encapsulation of plant polyphenols with micro-/nano-carriers for enhanced bioavailability has been well documented, but the preparation of these carriers and subsequent loading of polyphenols is a multiple process, which is generally complicated with potentially unexpected negative effects on the bioactivity of the polyphenols. Here, we reported a convenient method to assemble carrier-free polyphenol nanoparticles (NPs) based on oxidative coupling polymerization. The effectiveness was assessed with five different polyphenols including pyrocatechol (PY), catechin (CA), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), tannic acid (TA), and proanthocyanidin (PC). The structural characteristics of these assembled nanoparticles (PY NPs, CA NPs, EG NPs, TA NPs, and PC NPs) were systematically analyzed with dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-visible spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). All NPs were colloidally stable with varying NaCl concentrations from 0 to 300 mM, were acid-resistant and alkali-intolerant, and were suitable for oral administration. An array of antioxidant assays further confirmed the superior antioxidant capabilities of NPs over Trolox and polyphenol monomers, indicating that the oxidative polymerization of polyphenols did not compromise the polyphenol activity of NPs. The in vitro simulated digestion studies validated that these responsive NPs were actually gastrointestinal pH-responsive and applicable to the gastrointestinal physiological environment. The bioaccessibility assessments by using a static in vitro digestion model revealed that better results were achieved with NPs than polyphenol monomers, with TA NPs showing about 1.5-fold higher bioaccessibility than other polyphenol nanoparticles. The present study with five polyphenols demonstrated that the oxidative polymerization of polyphenols provides an effective platform to assemble various carrier-free NPs with enhanced antioxidant activity, favorable stability, and improved bioaccessibility, which could be used promisingly as a functional food ingredient in food matrices or as oral drug delivery candidates for helping to manage human health or treating various gastrointestinal disorders in both the pharmaceutical and nutritional fields.

The structural and functional properties of hemp protein isolate-epigallocatechin-3-gallate biopolymer covalent complex during heating. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:2484-2492.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is well known that hemp proteins have the disadvantages of poor solubility and poor emulsification. To improve these shortcomings, an alkali covalent cross-linking method was used to prepare hemp protein isolate-epigallocatechin-3-gallate biopolymer (HPI-EGCG) and the effects of different heat treatment conditions on the structure and emulsifying properties of the HPI-EGCG covalent complex were studied. RESULTS The secondary and tertiary structures, solubility, and emulsification ability of the HPI-EGCG complexes were evaluated using particle size, zeta potential, circular dichroism (CD), and fluorescence spectroscopy indices. The results showed that the absolute value of zeta potential of HPI-EGCG covalent complex was the largest, 18.6 mV, and the maximum binding amount of HPI to EGCG was 29.18 μmol g-1 . Under heat treatment at 25-35 °C, the α-helix content was reduced from 1.87% to 0%, and the β-helix content was reduced from 82.79% to 0% after the covalent binding of HPI and EGCG. The solubility and emulsification properties of the HPI-EGCG covalent complexes were improved significantly, and the emulsification activity index (EAI) and emulsion stability index (ESI) were increased by 2.77-fold and 1.21-fold, respectively. CONCLUSION A new HPI-EGCG covalent complex was developed in this study to provide a theoretical basis for the application of HPI-EGCG in food industry. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.
