Food Chem 2024; 441:138289. [PMID: 38176141 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138289] [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: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 12/02/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
Octenyl succinic anhydride-modified chitosan (OSA-CS) was synthesized and applied as a coating material to enhance the stability of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-loaded nanoemulsion. Due to the presence of the positively charged OSA-CS coating, the nanoemulsion exhibited a high positive zeta potential and two different layers. Compared with natural CS-coated nanoemulsion, OSA-CS-coated nanoemulsion showed improved storage stability (physical and chemical stability) and stability against environmental stresses (ionic strengths, temperatures and pH). Besides, OSA-CS-coated nanoemulsion protected encapsulated DHA from simulated gastric fluid damage better than that of natural CS-coated nanoemulsion, suggesting that OSA-CS-coated nanoemulsion had the potential to deliver more DHA into the small intestine. In conclusion, based on the comparison of two coating materials, natural chitosan and OSA-CS, it was found that the encapsulated nutrient was better protected by the OSA-CS coating. Such a finding will provide insights to broaden the application of modified chitosan in food delivery systems.

Hong SJ, Shin GH, Kim JT. Fabrication and Application of Turmeric Extract-Incorporated Oleogels Structured with Xanthan Gum and Soy Lecithin by Emulsion Template. Gels 2024; 10:84. [PMID: 38275858 PMCID: PMC10815647 DOI: 10.3390/gels10010084] [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: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Turmeric extract (TE)-loaded oleogels (TE-OG) was fabricated by an emulsion template technique using xanthan gum (XG) and soy lecithin (SL) as oleogelators. The formulation for TE-OG was optimized using 0.32% XG, 1.2% SL, and 1.0% TE. The optimized TE-OG had a minimal particle size of 810.23 ± 10.68 nm as measured by the dynamic light scattering (DLS) method, and a high encapsulation efficiency (EE) of 96.62 ± 0.56%. Additionally, the optimized TE-OG exhibited a favorable zeta potential of -27.73 ± 0.44 mV, indicating the good stability of the TE-OG due to the electrostatic repulsion between particles. TE-OG formulated with 0.32% XG and 1.2% SL was subjected to frequency sweep testing to evaluate its solid-like rheological behavior. The oil-binding capacity (OBC) of TE-OG was consistently maintained above 99.99%. In vitro digestion of TE-OG demonstrated the potential of the emulsion template for controlled release, with less than 20% of the encapsulated curcumin being released in simulated gastric fluid (SGF), whereas nearly 70% was released in the simulated intestinal fluid (SIF). Moreover, TE-OG affected the rapid release of free fatty acids (FFAs), which have a positive effect on the digestion of triacylglycerols found in soybean oil (SO). TE-OG was further used as an alternative to commercial butter to produce pound cakes, and their rheological properties were compared to those of the pound cake prepared using commercial butter. The pound cake prepared using TE-OG showed a noticeable decrease in hardness from 10.08 ± 1.39 N to 7.88 ± 0.68 N and increased porosity, demonstrating the inherent capability of TE-OG to enhance the overall quality standards of bakery products.

Abstract
Parasites cause illnesses with broad spectrum of symptoms from mild to severe, and are responsible for a significant number of outbreaks in the world. Current anti-parasitic drugs are toxic and have significant side effects. Nano-carriers are believed to obviate the limitations of conventional drugs via decreasing side effects and increasing target delivery and drug permeability with a controlled prolonged release of a drug. Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) are lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), which have frequently been practiced. Suitable release rate, stability, and target delivery make SLNs a good alternative for colloidal carriers. SLNs are supposed to have great potential to deliver natural products with anti-parasitic properties. Nanoparticles have employed to improve stability and capacity loading of SLNs, during recent years. This review describes development of SLNs, the methods of preparation, characterization, and loaded drugs into SLNs in parasitic diseases. In addition, we summarize recent development in anti-parasitic SLNs-loaded drugs.

Food Res Int 2024; 175:113631. [PMID: 38128976 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113631] [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: 08/09/2023] [Revised: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
Emulsions offer a promising approach for enhancing the bioavailability of lipophilic active compounds when administered orally. Nonetheless, the impact of lipid matrix composition on the efficacy of penetration and bioavailability remains uncertain. This research investigated the effects of solid lipid ratio in emulsions on colloidal stability, mucus permeability, and bioavailability in vivo. To assess colloidal stability in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), Turbiscan was employed. The results indicated that an elevated solid lipid ratio improved intestinal stability through the formation of aggregations that resisted pancreatic absorption, as confirmed by TEM. The absorption in various intestinal sections was tested using the Ussing Chamber model. Notably, emulsion with 0 % solid lipid (G0M10) exhibited the highest cumulative permeation across the duodenum (221.2 ± 21.19 ng), jejunum (713.1 ± 20.93 ng), and ileum (1056.3 ± 392.06 ng) due to its higher in vitro release rate (>60 %) and smaller particle size. The cumulative permeation decreased with increasing solid lipid ratio. CLSM revealed that emulsions with a solid lipid ratio exceeding 50 % exhibited poor mucus permeability within 15 min due to aggregation during the passage in the GIT. However, over an extended penetration time (30 min), higher permeability was observed, reaching approximately 30 μm. In vitro release studies indicated that a higher solid lipid ratio resulted in a reduced release rate of curcumin (<60 %) compared to G0M10 (66.9 ± 3.58 %). Correlation analysis unveiled a positive link between bioavailability and in vitro release rate, while a negative correlation emerged with the solid lipid ratio. This work underscores the significance of solid lipid ratios in emulsions for optimizing bioavailability through their influence on stability, permeability, and release of lipophilic compounds in the GIT.

Abstract
This study aimed to prepare single-component LNPs with sugar alcohol fatty acid monoesters for temperature-controlled release. In total, 20 kinds of lipids with a series of sugar alcohol head groups (ethylene glycol, glycerol, erythritol, xylitol and sorbitol) and fatty acyl tails (12:0, 14:0, 16:0 and 18:0) were synthesised via lipase-catalysed esterification. Their physicochemical properties and upper/lower critical solution temperature (LCST/USCT) were analysed. Two groups of mixed lipids, 78 % ethylene glycol lauric acid monoester + 22 % sorbitol stearic acid monoester (LNP-1) and 90 % ethylene glycol lauric acid monoester + 10 % xylitol myristic acid monoester (LNP-2), had LCST/USCT of approximately 37 °C, which formed empty LNPs using the emulsification-diffusion method. These two mixed lipids were prepared for LNPs loaded with curcumin, showing high encapsulation (>90 %), mean particle sizes of approximately 250 nm and low polydispersity index (≤0.2). These lipids have the potential for tailor-made LNPs achieving thermo-responsivity in delivering bioactive agents and drugs.

Abstract
Kimchi cabbage is a well-known glucosinolate (GLS)-containing vegetable, but its by-products are discarded despite the presence of GLS. The aim of this study was the optimization of the extraction and nanoencapsulation of GLS from kimchi cabbage by-products to enhance the intestinal absorption of GLS. The optimal GLS extraction conditions included steaming thrice as pretreatment, utilizing 70% methanol, and ultrasonication at 20% amplitude for 15 min. Under these conditions, 80.11 ± 4.40 mg/100 g of GLS extraction was obtained and the extraction yield was 81.70 ± 4.73%. The optimized kimchi cabbage by-product extract (KCE) was coated with chitosan-lipid nanoparticles (KCE-NPs) and their stability and release under simulated in vitro gastrointestinal conditions were evaluated. KCE-NPs protected the encapsulated GLS under acidic gastric conditions and released 91.63 ± 0.76% of GLS in the simulated intestinal medium. Therefore, the proposed KCE-NPs are a promising delivery system for increasing GLS absorption.

Abstract
Curcumin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (Cur-SLN) were prepared using medium- and long chain diacylglycerol (MLCD) or glycerol tripalmitate (TP) as lipid matrix and three kinds of surfactants including Tween 20 (T20), quillaja saponin (SQ) and rhamnolipid (Rha). The MLCD-based SLNs had a smaller size and lower surface charge than TP-SLNs with a Cur encapsulation efficiency of 87.54-95.32% and the Rha-based SLNs exhibited a small size but low stability to pH decreases and ionic strength. Thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction results confirmed that the SLNs with different lipid cores showed varying structures, melting and crystallization profiles. The emulsifiers slightly impacted the crystal polymorphism of MLCD-SLNs but largely influenced that of TP-SLNs. Meanwhile, the polymorphism transition was less significant for MLCD-SLNs, which accounted for the better stabilization of particle size and higher encapsulation efficiency of MLCD-SLNs during storage. In vitro studies showed that emulsifier formulation greatly impacted on the Cur bioavailability, whereby T20-SLNs showed much higher digestibility and bioavailability than that of SQ- and Rha-SLNs possibly due to the difference in the interfacial composition. Mathematical modeling analysis of the membrane release further confirmed that Cur was mainly released from the intestinal phase and T20-SLNs showed a faster release rate compared with other formulations. This work contributes to a better understanding of the performance of MLCD in lipophilic compound-loaded SLNs and has important implications for the rational design of lipid nanocarriers and in instructing their application in functional food products.

Abstract
Poor solubility and short biological half-life present a challenge that needs to be overcome in order to improve the recognized bioactivities of curcumin (CUR), the main phenolic compounds derived from the roots of Curcuma longa. However, drug delivery systems have proven to be an excellent strategy to improve and obtain greater bioavailability. Our previous studies on curcuminoid hybrid nanoparticles have shown promising results by significantly increasing the solubility of desmethoxycurcumin (DMC) and bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDM). In this contribution, we performed a detailed characterization of a CUR as well as in vitro and in vivo studies. The developed method produced CUR loaded nanoparticles with an average size of 49.46 ± 0.80. Moreover, the FT-IR analysis confirmed the encapsulation, and TEM images showed their spherical shape. The NP achieved an encapsulation efficiency greater than 99%. Further, the release studies found that the NPs obtained a significantly higher release than the pure compounds in water. In vivo delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) studies showed promising results by enhancing the immune activity response of CUR in NP compared to bulk CUR. Furthermore, we report a significant increase in antioxidant activity for CUR-NP in aqueous solution compared to free CUR. Finally, an important in vitro cytotoxic effect on gastric AGS and colon SW620 adenocarcinoma cell lines was found for CUR-NP while empty carrier nanoparticles are observed to exhibit low cytotoxicity, indicating the potential of these CUR-PLU NPs for further studies to assess their phytotherapeutic applications.

Neuroprotective Effect of Artichoke-Based Nanoformulation in Sporadic Alzheimer’s Disease Mouse Model: Focus on Antioxidant, Anti-Inflammatory, and Amyloidogenic Pathways. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2022; 15:ph15101202. [PMID: 36297313 PMCID: PMC9610800 DOI: 10.3390/ph15101202] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2022] [Revised: 09/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The vast socio-economic impact of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has prompted the search for new neuroprotective agents with good tolerability and safety profile. With its outstanding role as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, alongside its anti-acetylcholinesterase activity, the artichoke can be implemented in a multi-targeted approach in AD therapy. Moreover, artichoke agricultural wastes can represent according to the current United Nations Sustainable Development goals an opportunity to produce medicinally valuable phenolic-rich extracts. In this context, the UPLC-ESI-MS/MS phytochemical characterization of artichoke bracts extract revealed the presence of mono- and di-caffeoylquinic acids and apigenin, luteolin, and kaempferol O-glycosides with remarkable total phenolics and flavonoids contents. A broad antioxidant spectrum was established in vitro. Artichoke-loaded, chitosan-coated, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) were prepared and characterized for their size, zeta potential, morphology, entrapment efficiency, release, and ex vivo permeation and showed suitable colloidal characteristics, a controlled release profile, and promising ex vivo permeation, indicating possibly better physicochemical and biopharmaceutical parameters than free artichoke extract. The anti-Alzheimer potential of the extract and prepared SLNs was assessed in vivo in streptozotocin-induced sporadic Alzheimer mice. A great improvement in cognitive functions and spatial memory recovery, in addition to a marked reduction of the inflammatory biomarker TNF-α, β-amyloid, and tau protein levels, were observed. Significant neuroprotective efficacy in dentate Gyrus sub-regions was achieved in mice treated with free artichoke extract and to a significantly higher extent with artichoke-loaded SLNs. The results clarify the strong potential of artichoke bracts extract as a botanical anti-AD drug and will contribute to altering the future medicinal outlook of artichoke bracts previously regarded as agro-industrial waste.

Abstract
Curcumin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (Cur-NLCs)-based hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) oleogels (Cur-NLCs-HPMC-OGs) were fabricated using a cryogel template. The effect of the HPMC viscosity grade on the oleogel characteristics and in situ intestinal absorption were examined. Highly stable Cur-NLCs were prepared with a mean particle size of 314 nm and polydispersity index of 0.275. Cur-NLCs affected the creamy texture of self-standing Cur-NLCs-HPMC-OGs. The Cur-NLCs were tightly packed as oil droplets in the network of HPMC. However, a high viscosity of HPMC-4000 led to a greater ability to entrap and prevent droplet coalescence compared to a low viscosity of HPMC-400. NLCs promoted the release of free fatty acids during in vitro lipid digestion, whereas HPMC-4000 maintained the strength and durability of oleogels against mechanical and enzymatic breakdown. The in situ loop results revealed higher curcumin absorption by Cur-NLCs-HPMC-OGs than by Cur-HPMC-OGs. HMPC-4000 showed slightly higher curcumin absorption compared to HPMC-400.

Food Chem 2022; 392:133306. [PMID: 35636193 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.133306] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2021] [Revised: 04/23/2022] [Accepted: 05/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Curcumin-nanostructured lipid carrier-loaded oleogels (Cur-NLC-OGs) have been developed with biopolymer cryogels as an efficient delivery system to overcome the extremely low water solubility and instability of curcumin. The effect of NLC and biopolymer types on the encapsulation and release of curcumin from Cur-OGs was investigated. Alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and pectin solutions were firstly freeze dried to make biopolymer cryogels and they were mixed with Cur and Cur-NLC to obtain stable and self-standing Cur-OGs and Cur-NLC-OGs, respectively. As compared to Cur-OGs, Cur-NLC-OGs had higher encapsulation efficiency and showed slower release of curcumin under acidic condition. Although Cur-NLC affected the rapid release of free fatty acids, the Cur-NLC-OGs prepared with CMC cryogel was most efficient in delaying lipid digestion. Overall, NLC and CMC-based OGs could be effectively used to improve encapsulation efficiency and control lipolysis of lipid droplets. These results will be advantageous for the development of oleogels with desirable functionality.

Abstract
W/O/W double emulsion-based iron-solid lipid nanoparticles (Fe-SLNs) and water-soluble chitosan-coated Fe-SLNs (WSC-Fe-SLNs) were developed to increase the bioaccessibility and stability of iron. Fe-SLNs exhibited a small diameter (158.17 ± 0.72 nm) and adequate zeta potential (-34.31 ± 0.41 mV) to maintain stable dispersion. The coating with WSC resulted in an increase in particle diameter (up to 226.13 ± 1.97 nm) and change of zeta potential to positive value (+47.83 ± 1.24 mV) because of the amine groups of chitosan. The lipid peroxidation of the Fe-SLNs and WSC-Fe-SLNs was substantially lower than that of pure iron. Both Fe-SLNs and WSC-Fe-SLNs were also able to protect the encapsulated iron in simulated gastric fluid, while effectively releasing almost 80% of the iron in simulated intestinal fluid. The Fe-SLNs and WSC-Fe-SLNs showed a great potential as functional materials to apply to various food industries through enhancement of physical stability and bioaccessibility of the encapsulated iron.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of hydrocolloids with different electrostatic characteristics, namely negatively charged xanthan gum (XG), positively charged chitosan (CH), and non-ionic guar gum (GG), on the physicochemical properties, stability, and lipid digestibility of 10% (w/w) soybean oil-in-water Pickering emulsions stabilized by nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) was investigated. Addition of XG and CH to the NFC-stabilized emulsions significantly increased the oil droplet sizes and apparent viscosity at high shear rates as compared with the addition of GG. The XG added emulsion showed the lowest rate and extent of creaming, whereas the CH added emulsion gave the highest extent of creaming. The addition of XG and CH led to a more pronounced effect on in vitro lipid digestion, i.e. changes in droplet sizes, surface charges, microstructure, and free fatty acid (FFA) release, than the addition of GG. The XG added emulsion showed the lowest rate and extent of lipid digestion possibly due to the high viscosity of the aqueous phase, large oil droplet sizes, and interaction of XG and calcium, resulting in the reduction of lipase activity. The CH added emulsion exhibited the highest extent of lipid digestion possibly due to binding between CH and FFAs and move away from the droplet surfaces, thereby facilitating the lipase activity. In summary, it can be concluded that ionic hydrocolloids exerted more influence on NFC-stabilized Pickering emulsions than non-ionic ones. These results may facilitate the design of highly stable emulsion-based functional food products with added hydrocolloids to promote health and wellness.

Abstract
Curcumin nanosuspensions (Cur-NSs), chitosan-coated Cur-NSs (CS-Cur-NSs), and oligochitosan-coated Cur-NSs (OCS-Cur-NSs) were prepared by using an ultrasonic homogenization technique. The mean particle size of Cur-NSs was 210.9 nm and significantly (p < 0.05) increased to 368.8 nm by CS coating and decreased to 172.8 nm by OCS coating. Encapsulation efficiencies of Cur-NSs, CS-Cur-NSs, and OCS-Cur-NSs were 80.6%, 91.4%, and 88.5%, respectively. The mucin adsorption of Cur-NSs was steeply increased about 3–4 times by CS and OCS coating. Morphological changes of these NSs were studied using circular dichroism spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Thus, CS-Cur-NSs and OCS-Cur-NSs showed great potential as mucoadhesive nano-carriers for the efficient delivery of water insoluble compounds like curcumin to the gastrointestinal system.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to synthesize and characterize an experimental primer containing cationic lipid nanoparticles (NPL-chitosan) and to evaluate its properties. DESIGN The NPL-chitosan were synthesized by emulsion and sonication method. The experimental primers were applied in dentin surface of fifty human molars. The experimental groups were: 1) application of commercial primer; 2) Primer containing 2% of Chlorhexidine (CHX) 3); Primer with 2% NPL-chitosan 4); Primer with 0.6 % of NPL-chitosan 5); Primer with 0.4 % of NPL-chitosan. A composite resin plateau was used for the analysis, where sections were made for making the dentin beams. The effect of experimental primer with cationic nanoparticles in the inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity was carrying out by in situ zymography. For the Resin-Dentin Adhesive Strength and in situ Zymography analysis, was used the One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with significance level of 95 %. RESULTS Spherical NPL-chitosan presented size below 220 nm, polydispersity index of 0.179 and zeta potential positive and was stable over 75 days. These nanoparticles showed antibacterial activity agsainst S. mutans with MIC of the 0.4 % and MBC of 0.67 %. In the Microtensile Strength, no statistical difference was observed between the experimental groups (p = 0.9054). The in situ zymography assay showed that the group with 2% of NPL-chitosan presented higher inactivation activity of MMPs compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The experimental primer containing NPL-chitosan has antimicrobial activity, does not alter the adhesive resistance and inactivates MMPs present in dentin.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have been widely utilized in human daily life. The interaction between nanoparticles (NPs) and food matrices through oral ingestion is important for fate and potential toxicity of NPs. In this study, the interaction between NPs (i.e., titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO)) and food matrices (namely sucrose, protein powder, and corn oil) was investigated by use of an in vitro physiological model. Measurement using asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) showed that particle size of TiO2 NPs in saliva fluid decreased from 102 ± 6.21 nm (control) to 69.2 ± 6.90 and 81.9 ± 4.30 nm in protein powder and corn oil. Similar trend was also observed for ZnO. Compared with gastric fluid, micelles formed by corn oil in intestinal fluid further dispersed NPs, as indicated by approximately 11.1% and 13.2% decrease in particle size of TiO2 and ZnO NPs, respectively. Characterization of TEM, FTIR and AFM showed that a layer of biological corona was attached on surface of NPs in protein and oil. The XPS demonstrated that oil bound with NPs through forming covalent bonds, while protein bound with NPs through van der Waals force and electrostatic force for TiO2 and ZnO NPs, respectively. The result here demonstrated the importance of considering food effect when investigating the morphology and behavior of NPs after oral ingestion. This understanding was valuable in assessment of environmental fate and biological effects of NPs.

Abstract
Background: Systemic treatment of rheumatoid arthritis has been accompanied with several side effects. This study attempts to reduce leflunomide systemic side effects besides increasing its joint healing outcomes via formulation of layer-by-layer coated, leflunomide-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs). Methods: SLNs were coated with chitosan (CS) followed by folic acid (FA). FA-CS-SLNs were about 284.9 nm and carried negative surface charge. Results & conclusion: FA-CS-SLNs showed sustained release profile for 168 h. Results of oral administration of FA-CS-SLNs in rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis revealed improved joint healing and reduced hepatotoxicity compared with leflunomide suspension. This may be attributed to the ability of FA-CS-SLNs to actively target FA receptors that are overexpressed in inflamed rheumatic joints in addition to innate joint healing properties of CS.

Abstract
The impact of encapsulating carvacrol in chitosan-albumin based core-shell nano-carriers (NCs) on its stability and bioaccessibility was determined under simulated digestion conditions. These NCs consisted of chitosan (C) core enclosed by bovine serum albumin (BSA) shell. The mean particle size ranged from 52.4 ± 10 nm to 203 ± 6 nm and zeta-potential from + 21 ± 3.6 to -18 ± 2.7 mV. The size and charge were significantly modified after the protein-shell formation around the polysaccharide-core. Core-shell NCs were more stable, with less aggregation under simulated gastrointestinal conditions than C-NCs, presumably due to greater steric repulsion. Likewise, core-shell NCs were observed relatively more stabilized in the intestinal phase than gastric phase. The bioaccessibility of carvacrol was enhanced significantly when it was encapsulated in the core-shell NCs. These findings imply that C-BSA based core-shell NCs might be an efficient means of encapsulating, protecting and delivering hydrophobic bioactive compounds for applications in functional foods.

Abstract
Emerging antibiotic resistance in pathogens has posed considerable challenges to explore and examine the natural antimicrobials (NAMs). Due to the labile nature of NAMs, nano-delivery systems (NDS) are required to protect them from physiological degradation and allow controlled delivery to the targeted site of infection. In this study, corona modified NDS were developed using bovine serum albumin (BSA) on a chitosan core (CS) for sustained delivery of carvacrol (CAR), a natural antimicrobial agent, in the intestine. The optimal nano-formulations of the core (CS-NDS) and corona modified (BSA-CS-NDS) systems were fabricated with an average diameter of 52.4 ± 10.4 nm and 202.6 ± 6 nm, respectively. A shift in zeta-potential (ZP) from positive (+21 ± 3.6 mV) to negative values (-18 ± 2.6 mV) confirmed the electrostatic deposition of BSA corona on CS core. Under the influence of various simulated gastrointestinal conditions, BSA corona provided extra stability to NDS (ZP -38.5 mV), by ensuring delayed release and limited degradation in the gastric conditions. Mucoadhesive studies with quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) revealed that BSA corona reduced the mucoadhesion of NDS at gastric pH, which enabled the effective delivery of CAR to the intestinal phase for successful eradication of Salmonella enterica.

Abstract
Curcumin solid dispersions were prepared using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) to enhance water solubility of curcumin. The particle size of curcumin solid dispersions was in range from 371 to 528 nm and particles were shaped as spherical with wrinkles. The encapsulation efficiency was over 93% for all samples, and water solubility of curcumin was significantly improved to 238 µg/mL when the ratio of curcumin to HPMC was 20:80. The results of X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimeter, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that crystalline form of curcumin changed to amorphous form. Curcumin solid dispersions showed improved dissolution behavior compared to pure curcumin and the curcumin release kinetic studies were applied to find best-fitting model. This study showed a great potential of solid dispersion using HPMC as curcumin delivery system with improved water solubility and oral absorption. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Curcumin has limited applications in the food industry because of low water solubility. Dongoh water-soluble curcumin (DW-CURs) were prepared by solid dispersion method with HPMC. Our results indicated that curcumin solid dispersions improved the water solubility of curcumin and showed a sustained release, demonstrating its possibility of body application. Therefore, DW-CURs are a promising formulation for application as a functional ingredient in the food industry.

Abstract
In this study, a novel approach to prepare spray-dried encapsulated curcumin powder was investigated. The effects of surfactants viz. Tween 80 (at 0.25 to 0.75% wt) and lecithin (at 1% wt) and of a stabilizer viz. chitosan (at 0 to 0.375% wt) on the characteristics of curcumin-based emulsions as well as on physicochemical properties of the resulting spray-dried encapsulated powder were determined. The optimal emulsion was noted to be the one formulated with 0.50 and 0.25% wt, respectively, of Tween 80 and chitosan (T0.50/C0.25). Spray-dried powder prepared from the optimal emulsion was compared to that prepared from an emulsion with 0.5% Tween 80 and 0% chitosan (T0.50/C0.00), as well as that from an emulsion with 0.25% Tween 80 and 0.25% chitosan (T0.25/C0.25). Physical properties of all powders were not significantly different. However, the encapsulation efficiency of T0.50/C0.25 powder (72.28%) was significantly higher than those of T0.50/C0.00 (47.19%) and T0.25/C0.25 powder (51.61%). Ferric reducing antioxidant powers of T0.50/C0.25 and T0.25/C0.25 powders were comparable but significantly higher than that of T0.50/C0.00 powder. After reconstitution, the mean particle sizes of T0.50/C0.25 and T0.25/C0.25 remained unchanged due to the protection by chitosan. T0.50/C0.00 powder was noted to exhibit the highest bioaccessibility (89.32%) in the simulated gastrointestinal tract. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The results of this study can be used as a guideline to develop a stable formulation of curcumin feed emulsion that can later be transformed into an encapsulated powdery form via spray drying. Such a guideline should prove useful for a company looking for a way to produce high-quality functional ingredients and/or products from curcumin.

Abstract
Efficient characterization of the physicochemical attributes of bioactive-loaded micro/nano-vehicles is crucial for the successful product development. The introduction of outstanding science-based strategies and techniques makes it possible to realize how the characteristics of the formulation ingredients affect the structural and (bio)functional properties of the final bioactive-loaded carriers. The important points to be solved, at a microscopic level, are investigating how the features of the formulation ingredients affect the morphology, surface, size, dispersity, as well as the particulate interactions within bioactive-comprising nano/micro-delivery systems. This review presents a detailed description concerning the application of advanced microscopy techniques, i.e., confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) in characterizing the attributes of nano/microcarriers for the efficient delivery of bioactive compounds. Furthermore, the fundamental principles of these approaches, instrumentation, specific applications, and the strategy to choose the most proper technique for different carriers has been discussed.

Abstract
In the typical Western diet, fruits and vegetables are often consumed with food products that exist as oil-in-water emulsions, such as creams, dressings, and sauces. Studies have shown that coingestion of fruits and vegetables with emulsions can increase the bioavailability of beneficial lipophilic bioactive agents, such as nutraceuticals or vitamins. Agricultural produce, however, may also be contaminated with low levels of detrimental lipophilic agents, such as hydrophobic pesticides. We therefore examined the impact of coingesting a common agricultural product (tomatoes) with model food emulsions on the bioaccessibility of a hydrophobic pesticide (chlorpyrifos). The impact of emulsifier types (phospholipids, whey protein, Tween 80) and dietary fiber types (xanthan, chitosan, β-glucan) on the bioaccessibility of the pesticide was measured using a simulated gastrointestinal model. Chlorpyrifos bioaccessibility depended on the type of emulsifier used to formulate the emulsions: phospholipids > Tween 80 > whey protein. Dietary fiber type also influenced pesticide bioaccessibility by an amount that depended on the nature of the emulsifier used. Overall, our results suggest that the bioaccessibility of undesirable pesticides on fruits and vegetables will depend on the nature of the emulsions they are consumed with.
