Abstract
Cellulose stabilized multiphase systems (CSMS) have garnered significant attention due to their ultra-stabilization mechanism and vast potential across different fields. CSMS have found valuable applications in scientific disciplines, including Food Science, Pharmaceutical Science, Material Science, and related fields, owing to their beneficial attributes such as sustainability, safety, renewability, and non-toxicity. Furthermore, MPS exhibit novel characteristics that enable multiple mechanisms to produce HIPEs, aerogels, and oleogels revealing undiscovered information. Therefore, to explore the undiscovered phenomena of MPS, molecular level insights using advanced simulation/computational approaches are essential. The molecular dynamics simulation (MDS), play a valuable role in analyzing the interactions of ternary interphase. The MDS have successfully quantified the interactions of MPS by generating, visualizing, and analyzing trajectories. Through MDS, researchers have explored CSMS at the molecular level and advanced their applications in 3D printing, packaging, preparation, drug delivery, encapsulation, biosensors, electronic devices, biomaterials, and energy conservation. This review highlights the remarkable advancements in CSMS over the past five years, along with contributions of MDS in evaluating the relationships that dictate the functionality and properties of CSMS. By integrating experimental and computational methods, we underscore the potential to innovate and optimize these multiphase systems for groundbreaking applications.

Abstract
High internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) prepared from natural polymers have attracted much attention in the food manufactures. However, single zein-stabilized HIPPEs are poorly stable and prone to flocculation near the isoelectric point. To address this issue, in this study, zein and whey protein nanofibrils (WPN) complex nanoparticles (ZWNPs) were successfully prepared using a pH-driven method, and ZWNPs were further used as HIPPEs stabilizers. The results showed that zein and WPN were combined together through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interaction to form ZWNPs, and the HIPPEs stabilized by ZWNPs had excellent stability, which could effectively protect the internally encapsulated lycopene and improve the bioaccessibility of lycopene. In conclusion, this study provides a new strategy for the preparation of stable hydrophobic protein-based HIPPEs, represented by zein.

A novel Pickering emulsion gels stabilized by cellulose nanofiber/dihydromyricetin composite particles: Microstructure, rheological behavior and oxidative stability. Int J Biol Macromol 2024:135281. [PMID: 39256126 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.135281] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 08/14/2024] [Accepted: 09/01/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024]
Abstract
Particle concentrations (w) and oil content (Φ) are crucial factors influencing the gel stability of Pickering emulsions. To understand the stabilization mechanism comprehensively, we prepared emulsion gels stabilized by CNF/DMY composite particles at various w (0.5-1.5 wt%) and Φ (0.2-0.6, v/v). The microstructure revealed the adsorption of these particles at the oil-water interface, with excess particles forming a three-dimensional network structure in the continuous phase. Rheological studies showed that the network structure of Pickering emulsions was significantly influenced by w and Φ, resulting in improved emulsion gel strength that hindered the movement of oil droplets and oxygen in the continuous phase, thereby enhancing emulsion stability. Three scenarios for the critical strain (γco) were observed: at Φ = 0.2, γco decreased with increasing w, while at Φ = 0.4, γco increased with increasing w. At Φ = 0.6, γco remained relatively constant regardless of w. In conclusion, adjusting particle concentration and oil content enabled the control of microstructure, rheological properties, and antioxidant capacity of emulsion gels. These findings could be a valuable resource for formulating and ensuring the quality of emulsion gel-based products in the food industry.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:6966-6976. [PMID: 38619073 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13529] [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: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND High internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) are unique emulsion systems that transform liquid oil into solid-like fats, thus avoiding the use of saturated fat and leading to a healthier and more sustainable food system for consumers. HIPEs with oil volume fraction (ϕ) of 75-85% were fabricated with mung bean protein isolate (MPI) under different pH shift treatments at 1.0% concentration through the one-step method. In the present study, we investigated the physical properties, microstructures, processing properties, storage stability and rheological properties of HIPEs. RESULTS The results suggested that the properties of MPI under different pH shift treatments were improved to different degrees, stabilizing HIPEs (ϕ = 75-85%) with various processability to meet food processing needs. Under alkali shift treatment conditions, the particle size of MPI was significantly reduced with better solubility. Moreover, the exposure of hydrophobic groups increased the surface hydrophobicity of MPI, awarding MPI better emulsifying properties, which could stabilize the HIPEs with higher oil phase fraction. In addition, the MPI under pH 12 shift treatment (MPI-12) had the best oil-carrying ability to form the stable HIPEs with oil volume fraction (ϕ) up to 85%, which was the highest oil phase in preparing the HIPEs using plant protein solely at a low concentration under neutral conditions. CONCLUSION A series of stable HIPEs with different processing properties was simply and feasibly fabricated and these are of great potential in applying edible HIPEs. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

[PMID: 38763682 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114435] [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: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
Interfaces play essential roles in the stability and functions of emulsion systems. The quick development of novel emulsion systems (e.g., water-water emulsions, water-oleogel emulsions, hydrogel-oleogel emulsions) has brought great progress in interfacial engineering. These new interfaces, which are different from the traditional water-oil interfaces, and are also different from each other, have widened the applications of food emulsions, and also brought in challenges to stabilize the emulsions. We presented a comprehensive summary of various structured interfaces (stabilized by mixed-layers, multilayers, particles, nanodroplets, microgels etc.), and their characteristics, and designing strategies. We also discussed the applicability of these interfaces in stabilizing liquid-liquid (water-oil, water-water, oil-oil, alcohol-oil, etc.), liquid-gel, and gel-gel emulsion systems. Challenges and future research aspects were also proposed regarding interfacial engineering for different emulsions. Emulsions are interface-dominated materials, and the interfaces have dynamic natures, as the compositions and structures are not constant. Biopolymers, particles, nanodroplets, and microgels differed in their capacity to get absorbed onto the interface, to adjust their structures at the interface, to lower interfacial tension, and to stabilize different emulsions. The interactions between the interface and the bulk phases not only affected the properties of the interface, but also the two phases, leading to different functions of the emulsions. These structured interfaces have been used individually or cooperatively to achieve effective stabilization or better applications of different emulsion systems. However, dynamic changes of the interface during digestion are only poorly understood, and it is still challenging to fully characterize the interfaces.

Abstract
The salt-responsiveness of Pickering emulsions has significantly influenced their applications due to the large amount of salt on the surface of plant leaves. The present study provided a maleic anhydride-functionalized cellulose nanocrystal-stabilized high internal phase Pickering emulsion (MACNCs-HIPPEs) that was stable to high-concentration salt and used for pesticide delivery. The stability of MACNCs-HIPPEs was investigated by adjusting the oil-phase volume fraction (φ), the MACNCs concentration, NaCl dosages, and the rheological properties. The high internal phase Pickering emulsion was obtained at φ of 0.8 and MACNCs concentration of 2wt% and showed excellent salt stability (NaCl, 1200 mM) and significant storage stability (60 days). The sustained release of imidacloprid (IMI) from imidacloprid-loaded MACNCs-HIPPEs (IMI@MACNCs-HIPPEs) showed a positive correlation to the temperature (15°C, 25°C, 35°C), indicating clear thermo-responsiveness of the prepared pesticide formulation. The test of spread and retention of IMI@MACNCs-HIPPEs on the leaf surface showed a significant advantage compared with the commercial IMI water dispersible granules (CG). All the advantages mentioned above showed the excellent potential of the MACNCs-HIPPEs in delivering lipophilic pesticides.

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
In this study, the impact of soy hull polysaccharide (SHP) concentration on high-internal-phase emulsions (HIPEs) formation and the gastrointestinal viability of Lactobacillus plantarum within HIPEs were demonstrated. Following the addition of SHP, competitive adsorption with soy protein isolate (SPI) occurred, leading to increased protein adhesion to the oil-water interface and subsequent coating of oil droplets. This process augmented viscosity and enhanced HIPEs stability. Specifically, 1.8 % SHP had the best encapsulation efficiency and delivery efficiency, reaching 99.3 % and 71.1 %, respectively. After 14 d of continuous zebrafishs feeding, viable counts of Lactobacillus plantarum and complex probiotics in the intestinal tract was 1.1 × 107, 1.3 × 107, respectively. In vitro experiments further proved that HIPEs' ability to significantly enhance probiotics' intestinal colonization and provided targeted release for colon-specific delivery. These results provided a promising strategy for HIPEs-encapsulated probiotic delivery systems in oral food applications.

Abstract
Starch and peanut oil (PO) were widely used to improve the gel properties of surimi, however, the impact mechanism of addition forms on the denaturation and aggregation behavior of myofibrillar protein (MP) is not clear. Therefore, the effect of starch, PO, starch/PO mixture, and starch-based emulsion on the physicochemical and gel properties of MP was investigated. The results showed that amylose could accelerate the aggregation of MP, while amylopectin was conducive to the improvement of gel properties. The addition of PO, starch/PO mixture, or starch-based emulsion increased the turbidity, solubility, sulfhydryl content of MP, and improved the gel strength, whiteness, and texture of MP gel. However, compared with starch/PO mixture group, the gel strength of MP with waxy, normal and high amylose corn starch-based emulsion increased by 22.68 %, 10.27 %, and 32.89 %, respectively. The MP containing emulsion had higher storage modulus than MP with starch/PO mixture under the same amylose content. CLSM results indicated that the oil droplets aggregated in PO or starch/PO mixture group, while emulsified oil droplets filled the protein gel network more homogeneously. Therefore, the addition of starch and PO in the form of emulsion could effectively play the filling role to improve the gel properties of MP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of emulsion gels to protect and deliver probiotics has become an important topic in the food industry. This study used transglutaminase (TGase) to regulate ovalbumin (OVA) to prepare a novel emulsion gel. The effects of OVA concentration and the addition of TGase on the microstructure, rheological properties, water-holding capacity, and stability of the emulsion gels were investigated. RESULTS With the addition of TGase and the increasing OVA, the particle size of the emulsion gels decreased significantly (P < 0.05). The gels with TGase exhibited greater water holding, hardness, and chewiness to some extent by forming a more uniform and stable system. After simulated digestion, the survival rate of Bifidobacterium lactis embedded in OVA emulsion gels improved significantly in comparison with the oil-water mixture as a result of the protective effect of the emulsion gel encapsulation. CONCLUSION By increasing the OVA content and adding TGase, the rheological characteristics, stability, and encapsulation capability of the OVA emulsion gel could be enhanced, providing a theoretical basis for the use of emulsion gels to construct probiotic delivery systems. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 261:129886. [PMID: 38325252 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129886] [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: 10/12/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024]
Abstract
Starch-based Pickering emulsions exhibit high interfacial stability in a certain range of mild pH environments. On the contrary, many studies have reported that when the pH value is <4, it often leads to different degrees of emulsion instability. In this paper, the microscopic state of starch granules in the emulsion and its effect on the stability of the emulsion were observed and analyzed by atomic force microscope (AFM) in tapping mode. At the same time, Pickering emulsions in acidic environment were prepared by using the gel properties of methyl cellulose (MC) in synergy with esterified high amylose maize starch (M-HAMS) granules. The results show that in the emulsion with pH 3, the excessive H + ion inhibits the swelling of M-HAMS granules and prevents it from forming a stable gel structure, which is the main cause of emulsion instability. The polarity of MC with water contact angle (WCA) of 81.8° is similar to that of M-HAMS granules with WCA of 80.1°, and a uniform and ordered micro-nanostructure is formed in the aqueous phase. The prepared acidic (pH 3-4) emulsion has good stability during the observation period of 30 days.

He X, Lu Q. A review of high internal phase Pickering emulsions: Stabilization, rheology, and 3D printing application. Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 324:103086.

Abstract
High internal phase Pickering emulsion (HIPPE) is renowned for its exceptionally high-volume fraction of internal phase, leading to flocculated yet deformed emulsion droplets and unique rheological behaviors such as shear-thinning property, viscoelasticity, and thixotropic recovery. Alongside the inherent features of regular emulsion systems, such as large interfacial area and well-mixture of two immiscible liquids, the HIPPEs have been emerging as building blocks to construct three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds with customized structures and programmable functions using an extrusion-based 3D printing technique, making 3D-printed HIPPE-based scaffolds attract widespread interest from various fields such as food science, biotechnology, environmental science, and energy transfer. Herein, the recent advances in preparing suitable HIPPEs as 3D printing inks for various applied fields are reviewed. This work begins with the stabilization mechanism of HIPPEs, followed by introducing the origin of their distinctive rheological behaviors and strategies to adjust the rheological behaviors to prepare more eligible HIPPEs as printing inks. Then, the compatibility between extrusion-based 3D printing and HIPPEs as building blocks was discussed, followed by a summary of the potential applications using 3D-printed HIPPE-based scaffolds. Finally, limitations and future perspectives on preparing HIPPE-based materials using extrusion-based 3D printing were presented.

Abstract
Starch nanoparticles (SNPs) were prepared through acid hydrolysis of Canna edulis native starch and modified with octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) to yield OS-starch and OS-SNPs. These modified particles were used to stabilize curcumin-loaded Pickering emulsions. Effects on gut microbiota during in vitro fecal fermentation were examined. The surface of OS-starch exhibits a porous structure, while OS-SNPs display layered grooves. OSA modification was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (with peaks at 1728 cm-1 and 1573 cm-1) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (0.5-2 ppm). The degree of substitution for OS-starch and OS-SNPs is 0.0106 ± 0.0004 and 0.0079 ± 0.0003, respectively. Following modification, the crystallinity decreased from 35.69 ± 0.46 % (native starch) to 30.17 ± 0.70 % (OS-starch), SNPs decreased from 45.87 ± 0.89 % to 43.63 ± 0.64 % (OS-SNPs). Contact angles for OS-starch and OS-SNPs are 77.47 ± 1.78 and 55.57 ± 0.21, respectively. OS-SNPs exhibited superior emulsification properties compared to OS-starch, forming stable Pickering emulsions with pseudoplastic fluid behavior and enhanced curcumin storage protection over 14 days (60.88 ± 4.26 %) with controlled release. Stabilizing Pickering emulsions with OS-starch and OS-SNPs positively affected on gut microbiota and improved the intestinal environment, showing promise for their application in transportation systems and innovative prebiotic food formulations.

Abstract
Sodium alginate (SA) was used as a co-stabilizer to improve the Pickering emulsions stabilized by starch nanocrystals (SNC). Compared with pure SNC, SNC/SA complexes possess better neutral wettability with the contact angle approaching to 90°, more surface negative charges, and lower oil-water interfacial tension. These properties of particles make as-prepared emulsion higher stability with the lower creaming index and average droplet size. Furthermore, the emulsion exhibited good stability against salt (0-600 mM) and pH (2.0-6.0) at higher SA concentration (1.0 wt%). Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) images proved that SNC could be effectively adsorbed at the oil-water interface with the aid of SA. Rheological analysis showed that higher content of SA resulted in improved strength and higher viscosity of emulsion system. Results from this work indicating that SA could be a useful co-stabilizer to fulfill the demands of Pickering emulsions stabilized by SNC with stable characteristics.

Abstract
The use of biomolecules, such as proteins, polysaccharides, saponins, and phospholipids, instead of synthetic emulsifiers in food emulsion creation has generated significant interest among food scientists due to their advantages of being nontoxic, harmless, edible, and biocompatible. However, using a single biomolecule may not always meet practical needs for food emulsion applications. Therefore, biomolecules often require modification to achieve ideal interfacial properties. Among them, noncovalent interactions between biomolecules represent a promising physical modification method to modulate their interfacial properties without causing the health risks associated with forming new chemical bonds. Electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic interactions, and hydrogen bonding are examples of noncovalent interactions that facilitate biomolecules' effective applications in food emulsions. These interactions positively impact the physical stability, oxidative stability, digestibility, delivery characteristics, response sensitivity, and printability of biomolecule-based food emulsions. Nevertheless, using noncovalent interactions between biomolecules to facilitate their application in food emulsions still has limitations that need further improvement. This review introduced common biomolecule emulsifiers, the promotion effect of noncovalent interactions between biomolecules on the construction of emulsions with different biomolecules, their positive impact on the performance of emulsions, as well as their limitations and prospects in the construction of biomolecule-based emulsions. In conclusion, the future design and development of food emulsions will increasingly rely on noncovalent interactions between biomolecules. However, further improvements are necessary to fully exploit these interactions for constructing biomolecule-based emulsions.

Abstract
To prevent starch nanocrystals (SNCs) that are generated at an early stage from being hydrolyzed excessively, this study proposed a new separation method, named "neutral dispersion and acidic precipitation." SNCs were prepared from waxy potato starch by sulfuric acid hydrolysis. Based on the results of kinetics and molecular weight, the hydrolysis was divided into three stages, e.g., rapid (initial 1 day), medium (subsequent 1 day) and slow stage (2-5 days). The rapid and medium stages were related to the degradation of amorphous region in starch, and the slow stage mainly referred to SNC release. Therefore, the method was developed to separate SNCs at the slow stage. After centrifugation at 6000 rpm, large particles were removed from the SNC suspension under pH 7. The SNCs with small average size and crystallite size, high relative crystallinity (RC), and high dispersion stability in the supernatant were retained and were then precipitated entirely under pH 5, because pH 5 led to the reduction of dispersion stability of SNCs. Meanwhile, the hydrothermal and dry-thermal stability of separated SNCs were significantly promoted. The separation method has the potential in SNC preparation for increasing the yield and collecting products with small size and high RC.

Abstract
High internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) stabilized using modified starch nanoparticles (SNPs) were studied as a delivery system for ferulic acid (FA). The quinoa (Q, 153 nm) and maize (M, 221 nm) SNPs were prepared by sono-precipitation and modified with nonenyl succinic anhydride (NSA) and octenyl succinic acid (OSA). The FA-encapsulated HIPPEs obtained showed neither coalescence nor Ostwald ripening, as reflected by emulsion index and droplet size measurements. Confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed FA entrapped droplets surrounded by the SNPs layer. The rheological measurements confirmed strong network formation and long-term stability. In vitro studies (pH 7.4, 96 h) showed sustained release of FA from the gel network. After 15 days, the encapsulation efficiencies for HIPPEs stabilized with both NSA and OSA modified QSNPs and MSNPs were close to 99%. The results showed that FA could be feasibly encapsulated in HIPPEs stabilized using modified SNPs.

Abstract
High internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) are versatile platforms for various applications owing to their low-density, solid-like structure, and large specific surface area. Here, naturally occurring polysaccharide-protein hybrid nanoparticles (PPH NPs) were used to stabilize HIPPEs with an internal phase fraction of 80% at a PPH NP concentration of 1.5%. The obtained HIPPEs displayed a gel-like behavior with excellent stability against centrifugation (10000g, 10 min), temperature (4-121 °C), pH (1.0-11.0), and ionic strength (0-500 mM). Confocal laser scanning microscope and cryo-scanning electron microscopy results showed that PPH NPs contributed to the stability of HIPPEs by effectively adsorbing and anchoring on the surface of the emulsion droplets layer by layer to form a dense 3D network barrier to inhibit droplet coalescence. The rheological analysis showed that the HIPPEs possessed a higher viscosity and lower frequency dependence with increasing PPH NP concentration, suggesting the potential application of such HIPPEs in three-dimensional (3D) printing, which was subsequently confirmed by a 3D printing experiment. This work provides highly stable and processable HIPPEs, which can be developed as facile and reusable materials for numerous applications. They can also be directly used for future food manufacturing, drug and nutrient delivery, and tissue reconstruction.

Abstract
β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-based emulsion gels encapsulated with nutrition for three-dimensional (3D) printing are promising, while obstacles such as low bioaccessibility of bioactive compounds and the molding process in food manufacturing hinder their application. This study intended to develop stable composite emulsion gels using the complexes of chitosan (CS) and octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA)-modified β-CD (OCD) to conquer these challenges. The esterification of OSA generated more negatively charged OCD and ester groups, which aided in the combination of OCD and CS through enhanced electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions. The addition of CS improved the emulsification properties of the complexes and acted as a bridge link in the aqueous phase, thereby increasing the gel strength of the composite emulsion gels. Moreover, the encapsulation of β-carotene destabilized the strength of the emulsion gels by lowering the interfacial tension. The emulsion gel stabilized by OCD3/CS-0.75% at an initial pH not only successfully encapsulated β-carotene and presented the highest bioaccessibility of 41.88 ± 0.87% in the in vitro digestion but also showed excellent 3D printability. These results provided a promising strategy to enhance the viscoelasticity of β-CD-based emulsion gels and accelerate their application in bioactive compound delivery systems and 3D food printing.

Abstract
High internal phase emulsion (HIPE) was produced and stabilized using a novel antioxidant emulsifier formed by the complexation between sodium caseinate (SC) and quercetin (Q). Colloidal complexes, produced via an alkaline process, showed great ability to reduce the interfacial tension between oil-water phases, promoting stabilization of the HIPEs even at low concentrations (1.5% w/v in the aqueous fraction). HIPEs at 0.80 volume fraction of dispersed phase presented remarkable viscosity due to the high-packing network of oil droplets surrounded by a thin liquid layer. Moreover, the emulsions showed a gel-like behavior and kinetic stability for 45-days at 25 °C. The approach of SC:Q complexes on HIPEs development is promising to reduce lipid oxidation, translated by the formation of hydroperoxides and malondialdehyde during storage, especially for the complex formed with the highest amount of the phenolic compound. In this study, the development of HIPEs with outstanding kinetic and oxidative stability is reported as a potential alternative for the development of healthier products with reduced saturated and trans-fat content.

Traditionally, diverse natural bioactive compounds (polyphenols, proteins, fatty acids, dietary fibers) are used as inhibitors of starch digestive enzymes for lowering glycemic index (GI) and preventing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In recent years, organic nanomaterials (ONMs) have drawn a great attention because of their ability to overcome the stability and solubility issues of bioactive. This review aimed to elucidate the implications of ONMs in lowering GI and as encapsulating agents of enzymes inhibitors. The major ONMs are presented. The mechanisms underlying the inhibition of enzymes, the stability within the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and safety of ONMs are also provided. As a result of encapsulation of bioactive in ONMs, a more pronounced inhibition of enzymes was observed compared to un-encapsulated bioactive. More importantly, the lower the size of ONMs, the higher their inhibitory effects due to facile binding with enzymes. Additionally, in vivo studies exhibited the potentiality of ONMs for protection and sustained release of insulin for GI management. Overall, regulating the GI using ONMs could be a safe, robust and viable alternative compared to synthetic drugs (acarbose and voglibose) and un-encapsulated bioactive. Future researches should prioritize ONMs in real food products and evaluate their safety on a case-by-case basis.

[PMID: 37761173 PMCID: PMC10527730 DOI: 10.3390/foods12183464] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Revised: 09/10/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
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
Starch-fatty acid complexes used as emulsifiers have caught great attention because of their renewability and excellent emulsifying property, the development of a simple and efficient synthesis method for the fabrication of starch-fatty acid complexes is still greatly challenging. Herein, the rice starch-fatty acid complexes (NRS-FA) were successfully prepared by mechanical activation method using different long chain fatty acids (myristic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid) and native rice starch (NRS) as the raw materials. The results showed that the prepared NRS-FA with a V-shaped crystalline structure exhibited a higher digestion resistance than NRS. Moreover, when the chain length of fatty acids increased from 14 to 18 carbons, the contact angle of the complexes was much closer to 90°, and the average particle size was smaller, deriving the better emulsifying property of NRS-FA18 complexes, which were suitable to be used as an emulsifier to stabilize curcumin-loaded Pickering emulsions. The results of storage stability and in vitro digestion showed that the curcumin retention could reach 79.4 % after 28 days of storage and 80.8 % of curcumin was retained in the system after simulated gastric digestion, showing good encapsulation and delivery performance of prepared Pickering emulsions, which attributed to the enhancement of the coverage of particles at the oil-water interface.

Abstract
In this work, waxy maize starch nanocrystals were prepared by mixed acid of sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid for the first time. Physicochemical properties, crystalline structure, and particle size of starch nanocrystals prepared by mixed acid (HSNC) were measured. The results showed that there was no difference in particle morphology, group structure, and surface elements of HSNC and starch nanocrystals prepared by sulfuric acid (SNC), which was a conventional preparation method. The yield of HSNC was lower than that of SNC. However, the preparation time of HSNC was greatly shortened to 1 h which is only 0.83 % of the time (5 d) to prepare SNC by the sulfuric acid, and HSNC showed higher relative crystallinity and smaller size than those of SNC. In addition, when the ratio of sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid to provide H ion concentration was 1:1 to hydrolyze starch for >1 h, the crystal pattern of HSNC would be changed to V-typed, while the crystal pattern of SNC was still A-typed. Thus, this work provided efficient method for preparing starch nanocrystals is provided, which can replace sulfuric acid hydrolysis to prepare SNC.

Abstract
Pickering HIPEs have received tremendous attention in recent years due to their superior stability and unique solid-like and rheological properties. Biopolymer-based colloidal particles derived from proteins, polysaccharides and polyphenols have been demonstrated to be safety stabilizers for the construction of Pickering HIPEs, which can meet the demands of consumers for "all-natural" products and provide "clean-label" foods. Furthermore, the functionality of these biopolymers can be further extended by forming composite, conjugated and multi-component colloidal particles, which can be used to modulate the properties of the interfacial layer, thereby adjusting the performance and stability of Pickering HIPEs. In this review, the factors affecting the interfacial behavior and adsorption characteristics of colloidal particles are discussed. The intrinsic composition of matrix components and fundamental characteristics of Pickering HIPEs are emphatically summarized, and the emerging applications of Pickering HIPEs in the food industry are reviewed. Inspired by these findings, future perspectives concerning this field are also put forward, including (1) the exploration of the interactions between biopolymers used to produce Pickering HIPEs and target food ingredients, and the influence of the added biopolymers on the flavor and mouthfeel of the products, (2) the investigation of the digestion properties of Pickering HIPEs under oral administration, and (3) the fabrication of stimulus-responsive or transparent Pickering HIPEs. This review will give a reference for exploring more natural biopolymers for Pickering HIPEs application development.

Thermomechanically micronized sugar beet pulp: Emulsification performance and the contribution of soluble elements and insoluble fibrous particles. Food Res Int 2023; 165:112467.

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

Abstract
Eggshells, by-products of egg processing, were ball-milled and homogenized into particles (eggshell particles, ESPs) and then were used as the stabilizer with a two-step oil addition method to produce Pickering emulsions. Meanwhile, sodium alginate (SA) was used to modify the emulsifying ability of ESPs. The results indicated that SA addition helped to improve the dispersion performance and increase the negative charge of ESPs. Pickering emulsions stabilized by ESPs/SA showed much smaller particle size than those stabilized by ESPs. The maximum oil fraction in the ESPs/SA-stabilized emulsions reached up to 0.8, while that was only 0.75 in ESPs-stabilized emulsions. The presence of SA significantly enhanced the freeze-thaw, thermal, dilution, and centrifuge stability of ESPs-stabilized Pickering emulsions. The findings demonstrate the potential of eggshell particles as a kind of natural Pickering stabilizer, which will increase the high value-added utilization of poultry egg industry by-products.

Abstract
Food-derived colloidal nanoparticles (CNPs) have been found in many food cooking processes, and their specific effects on human health need to be further explored. Here, we report on the successful isolation of CNPs from duck soup. The hydrodynamic diameters of the obtained CNPs were 255.23 ± 12.77 nm, which comprised lipids (51.2%), protein (30.8%), and carbohydrates (7.9%). As indicated by the tests of free radical scavenging and ferric reducing capacities, the CNPs possessed remarkable antioxidant activity. Macrophages and enterocytes are essential for intestinal homeostasis. Therefore, RAW 264.7 and Caco-2 were applied to establish an oxidative stress model to investigate the antioxidant characteristics of the CNPs. The results showed that the CNPs from duck soup could be engulfed by these two cell lines, and could significantly alleviate 2,2'-Azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (AAPH)-induced oxidative damage. It indicates that the intake of duck soup is beneficial for intestinal health. These data contribute to revealing the underlying functional mechanism of Chinese traditional duck soup and the development of food-derived functional components.

Abstract
Emulsion gels, also known as gelled emulsions or emulgels, have garnered great attention both in fundamental research and practical applications due to their superior stability, tunable morphology and microstructure, and promising mechanical and functional properties. From an application perspective, attention in this area has been, historically, mainly focused on food industries, e.g., engineering emulsion gels as fat substitutes or delivery systems for bioactive food ingredients. However, a growing body of studies has, in recent years, begun to demonstrate the full potential of emulsion gels as soft templates for designing advanced functional materials widely applied in a variety of fields, spanning chemical engineering, pharmaceutics, and materials science. Herein, a concise and comprehensive overview of emulsion gels is presented, from fundamentals to applications, highlighting significant recent progress and open questions, to scout for and deepen their potential applications in more fields.

Abstract
In this work, high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) stabilized by naturally derived cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and gelatinized soluble starch (GSS) were fabricated to stabilize oregano essential oil (OEO) in the absence of surfactant. The physical properties, microstructures, rheological properties, and storage stability of HIPEs were investigated by adjusting CNC contents (0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 wt%) and starch concentration (4.5 wt%). The results revealed that CNC-GSS stabilized HIPEs exhibited good storage stability within one month and the smallest droplets size at a CNC concentration of 0.4 wt%. The emulsion volume fractions of 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 wt% CNC-GSS stabilized HIPEs after centrifugation reached 77.58, 82.05, 94.22, and 91.41 %, respectively. The effect of native CNC and GSS were analyzed to understand the stability mechanisms of HIPEs. The results revealed that CNC could be used as an effective stabilizer and emulsifier to fabricate the stable and gel-like HIPEs with tunable microstructure and rheological properties.

Abstract
Inspired by the emulsion stability of sugar beet pulp pectin, the hydrophobic protein fraction in sugar beet pulp (SBP) is expected to feature high interfacial activity. This work retrieved alkaline extracted protein-polysaccharide conjugates (AEC) from partially depectinized SBP by hot alkaline extraction. AEC was protein-rich (57.20 %), and the polysaccharide mainly comprised neutral sugar, which adopted a rhamnogalacturonan-I pectin-like structure. The hydrophobic polypeptide chains tangled as a dense 'core' with polysaccharide chains attached as a hydrated 'shell' (hydrodynamic radius of ~110 nm). AEC could significantly decrease the oil-water interfacial tension (11.58 mN/m), featuring superior emulsification performance than three control emulsifiers, especially the excellent emulsifying stability (10 % oil) as the emulsion droplet size of 0.438 and 0.479 μm for fresh and stored (60 °C, 5 d) emulsions, respectively. The relationship of molecular structure to emulsification was investigated by specific enzymic modification, suggesting the intact macromolecular structure was closely related to emulsifying activity and that the NS fraction contributed greatly to emulsifying stability. Moreover, AEC was highly efficient to stabilize gel-like high internal phase emulsions (oil fraction 0.80) with low concentration (0.2 %) and even high ionic strength (0-1000 mM). Altogether, valorizing AEC as an emulsifier is feasible for high-value utilization of SBP.

Abstract
Emulsion gels with the mixtures of low-molecular-weight emulsifier (LME) and polymer have attracted much attention in food; however, the LME-polymer interactions in emulsion system are complex and unclear. Here, the interactions between SSL and xanthan in emulsions and the mechanisms of stabilizing emulsions were investigated by using tensiometry, zeta potential, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), cryo-scanning electron microscopy (cryo-SEM) and rheology. SSL was more efficiently adsorbed on the oil-water interface than xanthan. Interestingly, the honeycomb structure was formed in emulsion gels, which firmly immobilized oil droplets. Furthermore, electrostatic repulsion and hydrophobic interactions between xanthan and SSL facilitated the efficient bonding at interface and in bulk. Both linear and nonlinear rheology strongly supported the fact that the interactions between xanthan and SSL enhanced gel-like viscoelastic structure of emulsion gels. This structure endows excellent stability of emulsion gels under high temperature storage, sealed conditions and pH change.

Abstract
Iodized oil has an excellent X-ray imaging effect, but it shows poor embolization performance. When used as an embolic agent, it is easily washed off by the blood flow and eliminated from the body. Therefore, it is essential to use iodized oil in combination with solid embolic agents such as gelatin sponge or to perform multiple embolization procedures to achieve the therapeutic effect. In the present study, a poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide)-co-acrylic acid (PNCAA) temperature-sensitive nanogel was synthesized by emulsion polymerization; the nanogel was then emulsified with iodized oil to prepare a thermosensitive iodized oil Pickering gel emulsion (TIPE). The oil-water (O/W) ratio of an O/W emulsion system can reach 4 : 6. When injected into the body, TIPE transforms into a nonflowing coagulated state at physiological temperature; the iodized oil is locked in the emulsion structure, thereby achieving local embolization and continuous imaging effects, which not only retain the X-ray imaging effect of the iodized oil but also improve its embolization effect. Subsequently, we further evaluated renal artery embolization in a normal rabbit renal artery model, and the results showed that TIPE shows a long-term conformal embolization performance and excellent long-term X-ray imaging ability.

Abstract
We demonstrated the formation, structure and stability of Pickering emulsions stabilized by octenyl succinic anhydride starch (OSA-S)/chitosan (CS) complexes and explored their potential as templates for porous materials. Sufficient oil fraction (Φ > 50 %) was decisive for stable emulsions, whereas the complex concentration (c) significantly affected the gel network of emulsions. An increase in Φ or c led to tighter droplet arrangement and enhanced network, which improved the self-supporting characteristics and the stability of emulsions. The stacking of OSA-S/CS complexes at the oil-water interface influenced the emulsion properties, forming typical microstructure with small droplets embedded in interstices of large droplets, and bridging flocculation occurred. Porous materials prepared using emulsions (Φ > 75 %) as templates exhibited semi-open structures with pore size and network varying with different Φ or c. There was no structure collapse due to the interconnectivity of complexes. Our work provides comprehensive information on OSA-S/CS complex-stabilized Pickering emulsions.

Abstract
This study investigated the formation and molecular interaction mechanism of chestnut starch nanocrystal (SNC)/macadamia protein isolate (MPI) complexes and their application in edible oil-in-water Pickering emulsion (PE). SNC/MPI complexes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and particle size analyzer. The PEs stabilized by SNC/MPI complexes were characterized by confocal laser scanning microscopy and rheological measurement. The results showed that hydrogen bonds between the two particles significantly affected the secondary structure and assembly of SNC/MPI complexes at the oil/water interface. The optimal mass ratio of SNC to MPI in the complexes with the best stability was determined as 20:1. The formation of edible oil-in-water PEs stabilized by SNC/MPI complexes significantly improved the oxidative and storage stability of different edible oils (olive oil, walnut oil, edible tea oil, and macadamia oil). These different edible oil-in-water PEs stabilized by SNC/MPI could be used as effective carriers of quercetin with their loading rates higher than 93%.

Abstract
In this study, chitosan (CS) with different molecular weights was functionalized with protocatechuic acid (PA) by free-radical grafting reaction, and used for the inhibition of lipid oxidation and the enhancement of stability of β-carotene in Pickering emulsions. The order of grafting ratio of PA in CS-PA conjugates was CS400 (400 kDa CS) > CS200 (200 kDa CS) > CS100 (100 kDa CS). UV-vis, FT-IR and 1H NMR spectra proved that PA was covalently bonded to CS through amino and ester linkages. Compared with native CS, three CS-PA conjugates exhibited reduced crystallinity and thermal stability and improved antioxidant activity, with a molecular weight-dependent relationship. Besides, CS-PA-conjugate particles formed by ionic gelling procedure were spherically shaped and homogeneously dispersed, which substantially improved the stability of β-carotene in Pickering emulsions than CS particles under ultraviolet irradiation, natural light exposure and heat treatment, and the retention rates of β-carotene were in the following order: CS200-PA- > CS400-PA- > CS100-PA-conjugate particles. Furthermore, the oxidation stability of Pickering emulsions fabricated by CS-PA-conjugate particles was also higher than that of CS particles. These results will provide valuable information for the application of CS-PA conjugates to protect bioactive components and inhibit lipid oxidation in emulsion systems.

Abstract
High internal phase Pickering emulsion (HIPPE) is a type of emulsion stabilized by solid particles irreversibly adsorbed on an interfacial film, and the volume fraction of the dispersed phase (Φ) is larger than the maximum packing volume fraction (Φmax). Proteins, polysaccharides, and their composite particles can be used as good particle stabilizers. The contact angle can most intuitively demonstrate the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of the particles and also determines the type of emulsions (O/W or W/O type). Particles' three-phase contact angles can be adjusted to about 90° by compounding or modification, which is more conducive to emulsion stability. As a shear thinning pseudoplastic fluid, HIPPE can be extruded smoothly through 3D printer nozzles, and its high storage modulus can support the structure of printed products. There is huge potential for future applications in 3D printing of food. This work reviewed the biomacromolecules that can be used to stabilize food-grade HIPPE, the stabilization mechanism of the emulsions, and the research progress of food 3D printing to provide a reference for the development of advanced food products based on HIPPE.

Abstract
In recent years, new cross-linkers from renewable resources have been sought to replace toxic synthetic compounds of this type. One of the most popular synthetic cross-linking agents used for biomedical applications is glutaraldehyde. However, the unreacted cross-linker can be released from the materials and cause cytotoxic effects. In the present work, dialdehyde starch nanocrystals (NDASs) were obtained from this polysaccharide nanocrystal form as an alternative to commonly used cross-linking agents. Then, 5-15% NDASs were used for chemical cross-linking of native chitosan (CS), gelatin (Gel), and a mixture of these two biopolymers (CS-Gel) via Schiff base reaction. The obtained materials, forming thin films, were characterized by ATR-FTIR, SEM, and XRD analysis. Thermal and mechanical properties were determined by TGA analysis and tensile testing. Moreover, all cross-linked biopolymers were also characterized by hydrophilic character, swelling ability, and protein absorption. The toxicity of obtained materials was tested using the Microtox test. Dialdehyde starch nanocrystals appear as a beneficial plant-derived cross-linking agent that allows obtaining cross-linked biopolymer materials with properties desirable for biomedical applications.

Abstract
There is an increasing interest in the development of high internal phase emulsions (HIPE) stabilized by food-grade nanoparticles due to their potential applications in the food industry. In this study, cross-linked egg white protein isolates (cEPIs) are prepared by adding 10 u/g, 20 u/g, and 40 u/g of transglutaminase (TG), and the impacts of interface properties of cEPIs and emulsifying of HIPEs are investigated. Relative to the native EPI, the cEPIs have more irregular and agglomerated morphology, and the turbidity and hydrophobicity are significantly increased. The particle size and zeta potential of cEPIs considerably varied with the addition of TG. In HIPE, the formation, physical properties, and microstructure are characterized by visual observations, the Turbiscan stability index, and CLSM. The results indicated that stable and gel-like HIPEs are formed by cEPIs at oil internal phase (φ) values of 0.75–0.90. Especially for the enzyme additions of 20 u/g, the cEPIs had the best storage stability and the lowest TSI value (2.50) and formed a gel network structure at φ values of 0.9 microscopically. Overall, this study can enrich the theoretical frame of interface properties by enzyme treatment. Besides, it would be of great importance for the research of HIPE stabilized by cEPIs appropriate to be applied in food formulations.
