Abstract
This study investigated the effects of two forms of curdlan, namely curdlan thermoreversibility (CT) and curdlan powder (CP), on in vitro digestion and viscoelastic properties of myofibrillar protein (MP). As the level of curdlan (0.1-0.5%) increased, pepsin digestibility and pancreatin digestibility significantly decreased, active sulfhydryl group also decreased, while surface hydrophobicity and total sulfhydryl groups increased. Meanwhile, curdlan enhanced the secondary and tertiary structures of MP. As the pepsin digest, α-helix gradually transformed into random coil. Furthermore, the viscosity, storage modulus (G") and loss modulus (G') increased with the CT or CP addition. After in vitro digestion, the viscoelasticity significantly decreased with a dose-response. Molecular dynamics simulations showed hydrogen bond formation (2.86 on average) between MP and curdlan contributing to reduced radius of gyration and solvent accessible surface area. Overall, this study highlighted curdlan as a promising ingredient to modulate structural properties and digestibility of MP, especially in pre-hydrated (CT) groups.

Abstract
Pea protein is one of plant proteins with high nutritional value, but its lower solubility and poor emulsifying properties limit its application in food industry. Based on wet-heating glycosylation of pea protein and inulin, effects of discharge power of atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) on structure, solubility, and emulsifying ability of pea protein-inulin glycosylation conjugate were explored. Results indicated that the APPJ discharge power did not affect the primary structure of pea protein. However, changes in secondary and spatial structure of pea protein were observed. When APPJ discharge power was 600 W, the solubility of glycosylation conjugate was 75.0% and the emulsifying stability index was 98.9 min, which increased by 14.85 and 21.95% than that of only glycosylation sample, respectively. These findings could provide technical support for APPJ treatment combination with glycosylation to enhance the physicochemical properties of plant-based proteins.

Abstract
There is an increasing demand for stable, highly viscoelastic, and printable emulsion gels based on pea protein (PeaP) as a substitute for animal fat. In this article, a simple pH modulation strategy was applied to regulate high internal phase (HIPE) gels prepared from PeaP and hydroxypropyl starch (HPS). The results showed that the interfacial tension of PeaP decreased from 11.9 to 7.1 mN/m at 5% PeaP and from 9.9 to 6.3 mN/m at 10% PeaP with increasing pH from 7 to 11. The incorporation of HPS improved the strength and physical stability of the HIPE gel. HIPE gels showed the best three-dimensional printing ability at pH 11. The main mechanism of HIPE gels at pH 3 was hydrophobic interaction, while electrostatic interaction dominated at pH 7, 9, and 11. This study may provide insights into the development of PeaP-based HIPE gels as a printable fat alternative.

Abstract
The differences in the gelling properties of soy protein isolate (SPI) and soy protein isolate amyloid fibrils (SAFs) as well as the role of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) in regulating their gel behaviors were investigated in this study. The binding of CNC to β-conglycinin (7S), glycinin (11S), and SAFs was predominantly driven by non-covalent interactions. CNC addition reduced the particle size, turbidity, subunit segments, and crystallinity of SPI and SAFs, promoted the conversion of α-helix to β-sheet, improved the thermal stability, exposed more tyrosine and tryptophan residues, and enhanced the intermolecular interactions. A more regular and ordered lamellar network structure was formed in the SAFs-CNC composite gel, which could be conducive to the improvement of gel quality. This study would provide theoretical reference for the understanding of the regulatory mechanism of protein amyloid fibrils gelation as well as the high-value utilization of SAFs-CNC complex as a functional protein-based material or food ingredient in food field.

Abstract
The stabilization of Pickering emulsions using micro/nanoparticles has gained significant attention due to their wide range of potential applications in industries such as cosmetics, food, catalysis, tissue engineering, and drug delivery. There is a growing demand for the development of environmentally friendly micro/nanoparticles to create stable Pickering emulsions. Naturally occurring polysaccharides like pectin offer promising options as they can assemble at oil/water interfaces. This polysaccharide is considered a green candidate because of its biodegradability and renewable nature. The physicochemical properties of micro/nanoparticles, influenced by fabrication methods and post-modification techniques, greatly impact the characteristics and applications of the resulting Pickering emulsions. This review focuses on recent advancements in Pickering emulsions stabilized by pectin-based micro/nanoparticles, as well as the application of functional materials in delivery systems, bio-based films and 3D printing using these emulsions as templates. The effects of micro/nanoparticle properties on the characteristics of Pickering emulsions and their applications are discussed. Additionally, the obstacles that currently hinder the practical implementation of pectin-based micro/nanoparticles and Pickering emulsions, along with future prospects for their development, are addressed.

Abstract
The applications of cellulose ethers in the petroleum industry represent various limitations in maintaining their rheological properties with an increase in both concentration and temperature. This paper proposed a new method to improve the rheological properties of hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose (HEMC) by incorporating diethyl carbonate (DEC) as a transesterification agent and alkali base solutions. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis confirmed the grafting of both composites onto the HEMC surface. The addition of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) improved the stability of the polymeric solution as observed from ζ-potential measurement. Shear viscosity and frequency sweep experiments were conducted at concentrations of 0.25-1 wt % at ambient and elevated temperatures ranging from 80-110 °C using a rheometer. In the results, the increase in viscosity at specific times and temperatures indicated the activation of DEC through the saponification reactions with alkali solutions. All polymeric solutions exhibited shear-thinning behavior and were fitted well by the Cross model. NaOH-based modified solution exhibited low shear viscosity compared to the DEC-HEMC solution at ambient temperature. However, at 110 °C, its viscosity exceeded that of the DEC-HEMC solution due to the activation of DEC. In frequency sweep analysis, the loss modulus (G″) was greater than the storage modulus (G') at lower frequencies and vice versa at higher frequencies. This signifies the viscoelastic behavior of modified solutions at 0.50 wt % and higher concentrations. The flow point (G' = G″) shifted to a low frequency, indicating the increasing dominance of elastic behavior with the rising temperature. At 110 °C, the NaOH-based modified solution exhibited both viscous and elastic behavior, confirming the solution's thermal stability and flowability. In conclusion, modified HEMC solution was found to be effective in controlling viscosity under ambient conditions, enhancing solubility, and improving thermal stability. This modified composite could play a significant role in optimizing viscoelastic properties and fluid performance under challenging wellbore conditions.

Abstract
In this study, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was used to interact with whey protein isolate (WPI) to prepare conjugates as emulsifiers and embedding agents, which can be used under acidic conditions. Firstly, the effects of ratios and pH values on the formation of WPI-CMC conjugates were investigated. The turbidity and particle size of WPI were reduced in the presence of CMC at pH 4.6 (near the isoelectric point). Then the characterization of physicochemical properties indicated that electrostatic interactions played a major role in the formation of WPI-CMC conjugates, thereby changing the structure and function of conjugates. CMC and WPI reached the optimal aggregation state at pH 4.6 and a ratio of 4:1. The conjugates exhibited excellent emulsifying activity and stability for the oil-in-water emulsions. WPI-CMC conjugates also could provide protection to allicin by preventing degradation under environmental stresses, while maintaining its antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Adequate amounts of live probiotics reaching the gut are necessary to maintain host health. However, the harsh environment during processing, the low pH of human gastric acid, and the high concentration of bile salts in the gut can significantly reduce survivability of probiotics. In this work, we propose a simple Pickering emulsion gels strategy to encapsulate Lactobacillus plantarum Lp90 into oil droplets filled in calcium alginate gels to improve its viability under pasteurization and gastrointestinal conditions. The emulsion gels were stabilized by the soluble complexes of salmon by-product protein (SP) and sodium alginate (ALG), and the aqueous phase was solidified by the addition of calcium. The interaction between SP and ALG and the effect of ALG concentration on emulsifying ability and emulsion stability were studied. The results from optical imaging, nuclear magnetic resonance, and rheological properties showed that the stability and viscosity of the emulsions gradually increased with the increased ALG concentration, while the droplet size of the emulsions and the content of free water in the system decreased significantly. Especially when the concentration of ALG was 1 %, the emulsion system was stable under the environment of high temperature and high ionic strength, and the water holding capacity was the highest. Through pasteurization and gastrointestinal digestion experiments, it was found that the survival rate of probiotics encapsulated in emulsion gels was significantly higher than that encapsulated in emulsions or hydrogels, which benefited from the dual action of oil droplets and calcium alginate gels network. These results provide a new strategy for the processing of probiotics and the high-value utilization of marine fish by-products.

[PMID: 37967606 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128064] [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: 01/26/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
This study developed a combination method between protein-polysaccharide complex coacervation and freezing drying for the preparation of green coffee oil (GCO) encapsulated powders. Different combinations of soy protein isolate, sodium caseinate, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and sodium alginate were utilised as wall materials. The occurrence of complexation between the biopolymers were compared to the final emulsion of the individual protein and confirmed by fourier transform infrared spectrometry and X-ray diffraction. The mean diameter and estimated PDI of GCO microcapsules were 72.57-295.00 μm and 1.47-2.02, respectively. Furthermore, the encapsulation efficiency of GCO microcapsules was between 61.47 and 90.01 %. Finally, oxidation kinetics models of GCO and its microcapsules demonstrated that the zero-order model of GCO microcapsules was found to have a higher fit, which could better reflect the quality changes of GCO microcapsules during storage. Different combinations of proteins and polysaccharides exhibited effective oxidative stability against single proteins because of polysaccharide addition. This research revealed that soy protein isolate, sodium caseinate combined with polysaccharides can be used as a promising microencapsulating agent for microencapsulation of GCO, especially with sodium carboxymethylcellulose and sodium alginate, and provided useful information for the potential use of GCO in the development of powder food.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to improve water solubility of the rice protein (RP) by forming complexes with anionic polysaccharides, such as sodium alginate (SA) and xanthan gum (XG). In addition, utilization of the RP complexes as an emulsifier was evaluated. The prepared RP-SA or RP-XG complexes were analyzed by measuring their particle size, ζ-potential, and water solubility as well as by confocal laser scanning microscopy. The formation of a complex between RP-SA and RP-XG improved the water solubility and dispersibility of RP over a wide range of pH values (3, 5, 7, and 9). Confocal fluorescence images showed that the aggregation of RP molecules was prevented by the formation of complexes between RP and polysaccharides. When soybean oil-in-water emulsions were prepared with complexes, RP-SA (ratio 4:1) and RP-XG(ratio 4:1) complex-stabilized emulsions were stable for 4 weeks of storage.

Abstract
Octenyl succinic anhydride modified tamarind seed polysaccharides (OTSPs) with various degrees of substitution were first synthesized and characterized in this work. The structural, solid-state, solution and emulsifying properties of the OTSPs and the effect of the degree of substitution (DS) were investigated. The structural characterization confirmed the successful grafting of the OSA moiety into TSP and the chain extension of the OTSPs. The hydrophobicity of the modified polysaccharide molecules increased, the absolute value of the zeta potential increased, and the thermal stability decreased, which were positively or negatively correlated with the changes in DS. In contrast, the hydrolysis of polysaccharides in alkaline aqueous solution led to a decrease in molar mass and the rigidity of the molecules, which were not significantly related to DS. Particle size analysis showed that OTSPs tended to aggregate into relatively small agglomerates, which was confirmed by the results of morphological analysis. Most importantly, the instability indices of emulsions stabilized by TSP, arabic gum and OSA-starch were 0.521, 0.715, and 0.804, respectively, while for OTSPs this parameter was between 0.04 and 0.19 under the same conditions, indicating better physical stability of the OTSP-stabilized emulsions, especially for OTSP-30. Overall, OTSP has great potential as an emulsifier for oil-in-water emulsions, especially for emulsification and stabilization in food processing.

Ameliorating the stability of native/thermally denatured chicken-derived myofibrillar proteins particles in an aqueous system: The synergistic effect of acidification combined with inulin and inulin/sodium alginate. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:127383.

Abstract
The effect of acidification through hydrochloric acid combined with inulin (In), and inulin/sodium alginate (In/SA) on the stability of native/thermally denatured myofibrillar proteins (MPs/TMPs) particles in an aqueous system was investigated. At the same pH, MPs-In and TMPs-In particles were smaller and had higher absolute potentials than MPs-In/SA and TMPs-In/SA particles. Additionally, the size of MPs-In particles reached 1 μm, and the solubility increased from 21.73 ± 0.57 % to 76.26 ± 1.27 % when the pH was reduced from 5.0 to 3.0. The absolute potential of TMPs 3-In particles increased from 15.77 ± 0.72 to 28.20 ± 0.30 mV, and the solubility increased from 18.65 ± 0.72 % to 74.53 ± 0.74 %. Confocal laser microscopy revealed that, compared with pH 5.0 or 4.0, MPs-In/TMPs-In particles dispersed more evenly at pH 3.0 compared with pH 5.0 or 4.0. This further confirmed that electrostatic repulsion between particles maximally contributed to particle stability. Furthermore, the α-helix content in TMPs-In particles at pH 3.0 decreased from 41.51 ± 1.09 % (TMPs control) to 16.61 ± 1.87 %. This decrement of an up to 60 % led to decreased intramolecular hydrogen bonds and improved surface hydrophobicity. Therefore, a single polysaccharide (In) combined with MPs/TMPs particles exhibited higher dispersion and stability at pH 3.0. These findings could provide new insights into chicken-derived protein beverage processing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fermentation is known to enhance the nutritional profile and confer unique flavors to products. However, the resultant effects on stability and physicochemical properties remain unexplored. RESULTS This study aims to elucidate the influence of fermentation on the stability and organoleptic characteristics of a rice protein beverage stabilized by carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). The findings revealed that the average aggregate size escalated from 507 to 870 nm, concurrently exhibiting a significant increase in surface potential. The aggregation enhancement was substantiated by evident morphological changes and confocal laser scanning microscopical (CLSM) observations. A negative correlation was discerned between the physical stability of the beverage and fermentation duration. Moreover, flavor analysis of the beverage post a 3 h fermentation period highlighted an increase in aromatic ester compounds, thereby intensifying the aroma. CONCLUSION The study corroborates that fermentation can detrimentally influence product stability while concurrently improving its flavor profile. By establishing a mix ratio of 10:1 for rice protein and CMC and forming a relatively stable system through electrostatic interaction at a pH of 5.4, a flavorful rice protein beverage can be derived post 3 h-fermentation process. These findings offer insights into the impact of varying fermentation durations on the stability and flavor of polysaccharide-based rice protein beverages. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Konjac glucomannan (KGM), xanthan gum (XG), guar gum (GG), and κ-carrageenan (KC), as substituent, are commonly used in ground pork products. Here, the content of these (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0%, w/w) on the gel properties, thermal properties, and interaction forces of salt-soluble protein (SSP) isolated from water-boiled pork meatballs were investigated. We found 1.0% KGM, 0.5% XG, 0.5-2.0% GG, and 0.5-2.0% KC to water-boiled pork meatballs exerted a positive effect on the denaturation temperature, hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions, disulfide bonds, α-helix, and β-sheet content of SSP, as well as the strength and storage modulus of the modified protein gel. The addition of these hydrocolloids with the addition of 1.0% aggregated myosin and actin, led to the enhancement of the bands corresponding to myosin heavy chain and actin. The prediction model of gel strength showed that the gel strength was negatively correlated with Tpeak1, Tpeak2, and ionic bond. This study provides theoretical guidance for improving the application of hydrocolloids in pork-based foods.

Abstract
Improving the mechanical and 3D printing performance of pea protein (PeaP) hydrogels contributes to the development of innovative plant-based gel products. Herein, we proposed a strategy for constructing PeaP-hydroxypropyl starch (HPS) interpenetrating network hydrogels, in which the structure, strength, and 3D printing properties of the hydrogels were regulated by changing pH. Results showed that pH significantly affected the gelation process of PeaP/HPS hydrogels. The hydrogels formed a lamellar structure at pH 3, a granule aggregation network structure at pH 5, porous structures at pH 7 and 9, and a honeycomb structure at pH 11. The strength of hydrogels formed at different pH values had the following order: pH 3 >pH 11 > pH 7 >pH 9 >pH 5. The storage modulus (G') of the hydrogel at pH 3 was up to 4149 Pa, but only 695 Pa at pH 5. Moreover, hydrogel at pH 3 had the best self-recovery of 55%. 3D printed objects from gel inks at pH 3 exhibited high structural integrity and fidelity at 60 °C. Gelling force analysis indicated hydrogen bonds were the dominant interaction within all hydrogels. Overall, this study suggested that PeaP/HPS hydrogel formed at pH 3 possessed the most excellent mechanical properties and 3D printing capabilities, which may provide insights into the development of novel PeaP-based gel food ingredients and promote the application of PeaP in the food industry.

Abstract
The structure properties, stability and β-carotene slow-release mechanism of soybean protein isolate-citrus pectin-gallic acid complex (SPI-CP-GA) stabilized high-internal phase Pickering emulsion (HIPPE) were investigated. The results showed that compared with the SPI-CP binary complex, the turbidity of the SPI-CP-GA ternary complex increased from 2.174 ± 0.001 to 3.027 ± 0.001, the surface wettability was increased, the infrared peaks was blue-shifted, changed from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, and the equilibrium interfacial tension of particles increased from 10.77 ± 0.02 mN/m to 13.46 ± 0.03 mN/m, the complex was more stable. When the GA was 2.0 mg/mL, the encapsulation efficiency of β-carotene was higher. With increased GA concentration and oil phase volume fraction (φ), the apparent viscosity and viscoelastic behavior of HIPPE performed well, forming a stable gel network structure. After 30 days of storage, there was no oil separation in the sample group with GA concentration of 2.0 mg/mL and φ = 0.7, and the stability was strong. After gastrointestinal digestion, the particle size of the HIPPE decreased from 13.51 ± 0.86 μm to 7.70 ± 0.68 μm, the free fatty acid (FFA) release rate was 22.03%, and the bioaccessibility of β-carotene was 6.67 ± 0.19%, and the sustained-release effect was obvious. These results indicated that the SPI-CP-GA ternary complex is a potential stabilizer for HIPPE, and providing theoretical guidance for the design of protein-polysaccharide-polyphenol stabilized HIPPE.

Abstract
Three polysaccharide matrices (κ-Carrageenan (Carr), gellan gum, and agar) were grafted via glutaraldehyde (GA) and pea protein (PP). The grafted matrices covalently immobilized β-D-galactosidase (β-GL). Nonetheless, grafted Carr acquired the topmost amount of immobilized β-GL (iβ-GL). Thus, its grafting process was honed via Box-Behnken design and was further characterized via FTIR, EDX, and SEM. The optimal GA-PP-Carr grafting comprised processing Carr beads with 10% PP dispersion of pH 1 and 25% GA solution. The optimal GA-PP-Carr beads acquired 11.44 Ug-1 iβ-GL with 45.49% immobilization efficiency. Both free and GA-PP-Carr iβ-GLs manifested their topmost activity at the selfsame temperature and pH. Nonetheless, the β-GL Km and Vmax values were reduced following immobilization. The GA-PP-Carr iβ-GL manifested good operational stability. Moreover, its storage stability was incremented where 91.74% activity was offered after 35 storage days. The GA-PP-Carr iβ-GL was utilized to degrade lactose in whey permeate with 81.90% lactose degradation efficiency.

Abstract
This study aimed to improve the physical stability of ultra-high temperature (UHT) oat beverage by adding hydrophilic colloids (guar gum [GG] and xanthan gum [XG]) and a natural emulsifier (soluble soybean polysaccharide [SSPS]). The stability of the oat beverage was characterized by particle size, zeta potential, rheological properties, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, backscattered light intensity (ΔBS), and microstructure. The results indicated that XG reduced the average particle size and size distribution of the beverage, indicating that XG could prevent particle aggregation. GG increases the apparent viscosity of the oat beverage without affecting the zeta potential. When SSPS was added to the oat beverage, it increased the absolute value of the zeta potential and the infrared absorption peak intensity, while the average particle size and backscattered light intensity (ΔBS) decreased, resulting in a more uniform microstructure. The zeta potential reached a maximum value of 32.12 when GG, XG, and SSPS were combined, indicating that the physical stability of the oat beverage was effectively improved when all three were present simultaneously. This study may provide some suggestions for the industrial production of low-viscosity cereal beverages with good stability.

Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the capability of persimmon pectin (PP) as a stabilizer for acid milk drinks (AMDs) compared with commercial high-methoxyl pectin (HMP) and sugar beet pectin (SBP). The effectiveness of pectin stabilizers was assessed by analyzing particle size, micromorphology, zeta potential, sedimentation fraction, storage, and physical stability. Results of CLSM images and particle size measurements showed that PP-stabilized AMDs had smaller droplet sizes and more uniform distributions, indicating better stabilization potential compared with the HMP- and SBP-stabilized AMDs. Zeta potential measurements revealed that the addition of PP significantly increased the electrostatic repulsion between particles and prevented aggregation. Moreover, based on the results of Turbiscan and storage stability determination, PP exhibited better physical and storage stability compared with HMP and SBP. The combination of steric repulsion and electrostatic repulsion mechanisms exerted a stabilizing effect on the AMDs prepared from PP. Overall, these findings suggest that PP has promising potential as an AMD stabilizer in the food and beverage industry.

Abstract
As people become more aware of the health benefits of foods and their nutritional benefits for preventing diseases and promoting health, the demand for functional foods rich in proteins, fiber, and bioactives like capsaicin (CAP) is constantly rising. This study hypothesized that the electrostatic complexes developed by cricket protein isolate (CPI) and alginate (AL) could be utilized to encapsulate CAP, making it more water-soluble and protecting it at acidic pHs. Quantitative analysis revealed that CAP was efficiently encapsulated into the CPI-AL complexes with a maximum encapsulation efficiency of 91%, improving its aqueous solubility 45-fold. In vitro release tests showed that CAP was retained at acidic pHs (3.0 and 5.0) in CPI-AL complexes but released steadily at neutral pH (7.4), which will protect CAP in the stomach while enabling its release in the small intestine. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of CAP-CPI-AL complexes was superior to that of their individual bare equivalents. The complexes also demonstrated enhanced emulsifying capabilities and stability at acidic pHs (2.0-5.0) as the CPI fraction in the complexes increased. Our findings thus contribute to the growing body of knowledge that validates protein-polysaccharide complexation as a promising strategy for developing edible delivery systems.

Abstract
The cultivation of vining pea (Pisum sativum) faces a major constraint with root rot diseases, caused by a complex of soil-borne pathogens including the oomycetes Aphanomyces euteiches and Phytophtora pisi. Disease resistant commercial varieties are lacking but the landrace PI180693 is used as a source of partial resistance in ongoing pea breeding programs. In this study, the level of resistance and their interaction with A. euteiches virulence levels of six new back-crossed pea breeding lines, deriving from the cross between the susceptible commercial cultivar Linnea and PI180693, were evaluated for their resistance towards aphanomyces root rot in growth chamber and green house tests. Resistance towards mixed infections by A. euteiches and P. pisi and commercial production traits were evaluated in field trials. In growth chamber trials, pathogen virulence levels had a significant effect on plant resistance, as resistance was more consistent against A. euteiches strains exhibiting high or intermediate virulence compared with lowly virulent strains. In fact, line Z1701-1 showed to be significantly more resistant than both parents when inoculated with a lowly virulent strain. In two separate field trials in 2020, all six breeding lines performed equally well as the resistant parent PI180693 at sites only containing A. euteiches, as there were no differences in disease index. In mixed infections, PI180693 exhibited significantly lower disease index scores than Linnea. However, breeding lines displayed higher disease index scores compared with PI180693, indicating higher susceptibility towards P. pisi. Data on seedling emergence from the same field trials suggested that PI180693 was particularly sensitive towards seed decay/damping off disease caused by P. pisi. Furthermore, the breeding lines performed equally well as Linnea in traits important for green pea production, again emphasizing the commercial potential. In summary, we show that the resistance from PI180693 interacts with virulence levels of the pathogen A. euteiches and is less effective towards root rot caused by P. pisi. Our results show the potential use of combining PI180693 partial resistance against aphanomyces root rot with commercially favorable breeding traits in commercial breeding programs.

Abstract
Emulsions are thermodynamically unstable systems that tend to separate into two immiscible phases over time. The interfacial layer formed by the emulsifiers adsorbed at the oil-water interface plays an important role in the emulsion stability. The interfacial layer properties of emulsion droplets have been considered the cutting-in points that influence emulsion stability, a traditional motif of physical chemistry and colloid chemistry of particular significance in relation to the food science and technology sector. Although many attempts have shown that high interfacial viscoelasticity may contribute to long-term emulsion stability, a universal relationship for all cases between the interfacial layer features at the microscopic scale and the bulk physical stability of the emulsion at the macroscopic scale remains to be established. Not only that, but integrating the cognition from different scales of emulsions and establishing a unified single model to fill the gap in awareness between scales also remain challenging. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of recent progress in the general science of emulsion stability with a peculiar focus on interfacial layer characteristics in relation to the formation and stabilization of food emulsions, where the natural origin and edible safety of emulsifiers and stabilizers are highly requested. This review begins with a general overview of the construction and destruction of interfacial layers in emulsions to highlight the most important physicochemical characteristics of interfacial layers (formation kinetics, surface load, interactions among adsorbed emulsifiers, thickness and structure, and shear and dilatational rheology), and their roles in controlling emulsion stability. Subsequently, the structural effects of a series of typically dietary emulsifiers (small-molecule surfactants,proteins, polysaccharides, protein-polysaccharide complexes, and particles) on oil-water interfaces in food emulsions are emphasized. Finally, the main protocols developed for modifying the structural characteristics of adsorbed emulsifiers at multiple scales and improving the stability of emulsions are highlighted. Overall, this paper aims to comprehensively study the literature findings in the past decade and find out the commonality of multi-scale structures of emulsifiers, so as to deeply understand the common characteristics and emulsification stability behaviour of adsorption emulsifiers with different interfacial layer structures. It is difficult to say that there has been significant progress in the underlying principles and technologies in the general science of emulsion stability over the last decade or two. However, the correlation between interfacial layer properties and physical stability of food emulsions promotes revealing the role of interfacial rheological properties in emulsion stability, providing guidance on controlling the bulk properties by tuning the interfacial layer functionality.

Abstract
A clean-label process to endogenously glycate and purify pea protein was investigated. The production of maltodextrin from pea starch with a specific dextrose equivalent (DE) was optimized. The produced maltodextrin (14.6 DE) was used to initiate a limited and controlled Maillard-induced glycation of pea protein. The partially glycated pea protein (PG-PP) was subjected to hydrophobic interaction chromatography to remove unreacted carbohydrate, followed by characterization of the purified product. The extent of Maillard-induced glycation was monitored by assessing changes in color, free amino groups, and protein/glycoprotein profiles. The purified PG-PP was evaluated for thermal denaturation, surface properties, protein secondary structure, protein solubility, thermal stability, and digestibility. Maillard-induced glycation was limited to initial stages and resulted in a moderate blockage of amine groups (∼30%). The purified PG-PP had a relatively low surface hydrophobicity, a markedly enhanced protein solubility (∼90%) at pH 3.4, and a nonimpacted protein in vitro digestibility (∼100%). This work provided the impetus needed for future scale-up and process optimization for the production of value-added pea protein ingredient intended for high protein beverage applications.

Abstract
Prechlorination routinely applied for the treatment of algae-laden raw water has received extensive attention due to its influence on water quality and aquatic microbes. In this study, prechlorination experiments with different doses were conducted in sets of model raw water distribution systems. With the elevated dose of chlorine and prolonged hydraulic retention time (HRT), the ratio of intact algal cells decreased, and the stability of water enhanced. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and nitrogen (DON) increased when chlorine dose elevated from 0 to 0.5 mg/L but decreased with elevations from 0.5 to 2.0 mg/L, while UV254 showed a monotonically increasing tendency. DOC, DON and extracellular microcystin-LR increase initially and decrease thereafter with the prolonged HRT. Notably, the effects of prechlorination on extracellular polymeric substances aggregation behavior on pipe walls and microbial community composition was revealed, providing more profound understanding of the community dynamics in this engineered system. This study helped optimize strategies to improve the stability and efficiency of pretreatment of algae-laden water.

Abstract
Highlights Pea protein isolate (PPI) and EGCG spontaneously formed complexes. Protein–polyphenol complexation was mainly driven by hydrogen bonding. The binding of EGCG influenced the structure and functionality of PPI. PPI-EGCG complexes had better emulsifier properties than PPI.
Abstract There is increasing interest in using plant-derived proteins in foods and beverages for environmental, health, and ethical reasons. However, the inherent physicochemical properties and functional performance of many plant proteins limit their widespread application. Here, we prepared pea protein isolate (PPI) dispersions using a combined pH-shift/heat treatment method, and then, prepared PPI-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) complexes under neutral conditions. Spectroscopy, calorimetry, molecular docking, and light scattering analysis demonstrated that the molecular complexes formed spontaneously. This was primarily ascribed to hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. The complexation of EGCG caused changes in the secondary structure of PPI, including the reduction in the α-helix and increase in the β-sheet and disordered regions. These changes slightly decreased the thermal stability of the protein. With the accretion of EGCG, the hydrophilicity of the complexes increased significantly, which improved the functional attributes of the protein. Optimization of the PPI-to-EGCG ratio led to the complexes having better foaming and emulsifying properties than the protein alone. This study could broaden the utilization of pea proteins as functional ingredients in foods. Moreover, protein–polyphenol complexes can be used as multifunctional ingredients, such as antioxidants or nutraceutical emulsifiers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Walnut oil, which is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), can be incorporated into food emulsions to increase their nutritional value. However, these emulsions are highly susceptible to deterioration during storage due to lipid oxidation. Konjac glucomannan (KGM) is a neutral plant polysaccharide used as a stabilizer, thickener or gelling agent in foods. The goal of this study was to incorporate KGM into oil-in-water emulsions containing walnut oil droplets coated by whey protein isolate (WPI) and then determine its effects on their physical and oxidative stability. RESULTS At pH 3, inclusion of KGM (0.1-1 g kg-1 ) reduced the positive surface potential on the droplets in the emulsions and modified the secondary structure of the adsorbed whey proteins, suggesting an interaction between KGM and WPI at the droplet surfaces. The physical stability of the emulsions was enhanced when 0.1-0.6 g kg-1 KGM was added but reduced at higher levels. Lipid oxidation was inhibited in the emulsions in a dose-dependent manner when 0.2-0.6 g kg-1 KGM was added but protein oxidation was promoted at higher KGM levels. The steric hindrance provided by the thick WPI-KGM interfaces, as well as the ability of the polysaccharides to modify the antioxidant properties of the adsorbed proteins, may account for these effects. CONCLUSION These results suggest that KGM can be used to inhibit lipid oxidation in emulsified foods containing protein-coated oil droplets. However, its level must be optimized because higher doses can result in droplet aggregation and protein oxidation. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The demand for proteins continues to increase due to their nutritional benefits, the growing world population, and rising protein deficiency. Plant-based proteins represent a sustainable source to supplement costly animal proteins. Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is one of the most produced plant legume crops in the world and contributes to 26% of the total pulse production. The average protein content of pea is about 20%-25%. The commercial utilization of pea proteins is limited, partially due to its less desirable functionalities and beany off-flavor. Protein modification may change these properties and broaden the application of pea proteins in the food industry. Functional properties such as protein solubility, water and oil holding capacity, emulsifying/foaming capacity and stability, and gelation can be altered and improved by enzymatic, chemical, and physical modifications. These modifications work by affecting protein chemical structures, hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity balance, and interactions with other food constituents. Modifiers, reaction conditions, and degree of modifications are critical variables for protein modifications and can be controlled to achieve desirable functional attributes that may meet applications in meat analogs, baking products, dressings, beverages, dairy mimics, encapsulation, and emulsions. Understanding pea protein characteristics will allow us to design better functional ingredients for food applications.

Nutritional Function and Flavor Evaluation of a New Soybean Beverage Based on Naematelia aurantialba Fermentation. Foods 2022; 11:foods11030272.

Abstract
The soy beverage is a healthy product rich in plant protein; however, its unpleasant flavor affects consumer acceptance. The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of using Naematelia aurantialba as a strain for the preparation of fermented soybean beverages (FSB). Increases in Zeta potential, particle size, and viscosity make soy beverages more stable. We found that nutrient composition was increased by fermenting N. aurantialba, and the antioxidant activity of soybean beverages significantly increased after 5 days of fermentation. By reducing the content of beany substances such as hexanal and increasing the content of 1-octen-3-ol, the aroma of soybean beverages fermented by N. aurantialba changed from “beany, green, and fatty” to “mushroom and aromatic”. The resulting FSB had reduced bitterness but considerably increased sourness while maintaining the fresh and sweet taste of unfermented soybean beverages (UFSB). This study not only provides a theoretical basis for the market promotion of FSB but also provides a reference for basidiomycetes-fermented beverages.

Abstract
In this review, a historical perspective, functional and application trends of natural polymers used to the development of edible food packaging were presented and discussed. Polysaccharides and proteins, i.e., alginate; carrageenan; chitosan; starch; pea protein, were considered. These natural polymers are important materials obtained from renewable plant, algae and animal sources, as well as from agroindustrial residues. Historically, some of them have been widely used by ancient populations for food packaging until these were replaced by petroleum-based plastic materials after World War II. Nowadays, biobased materials for food packaging have attracted attention. Their use was boosted especially because of the environmental pollution caused by inappropriate disposal of plastic packaging. Biobased materials are welcome to the design of food packaging because they possess many advantages, such as biodegradability, biocompatibility and low toxicity. Depending on the formulation, certain biopolymer-based packaging may present good barrier properties, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities Thus, polysaccharides and proteins can be combined to form diverse composite films with improved mechanical and biological behaviors, making them suitable for packaging of different food products.
