A stable delivery system for curcumin: Fabrication and characterization of self-assembling acylated kidney bean protein isolate nanogels. Food Chem 2024; 443:138526. [PMID: 38290298 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138526] [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: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
The construction of protein-based nano-gels as curcumin delivery system effectively enhances the stability and bioavailability of curcumin. In this study, acylation modification and self-assembly techniques were jointly employed to construct acylated kidney bean protein isolate (AKBPI)-nanogels. Optimal conditions for AKBPI-nanogels were determined to be pH 7, concentration of 2 mg/mL, and temperature at 90℃ for 30 min. The optimized AKBPI-nanogels exhibited excellent uniformity as evidenced by decreasing average particle size (137.35 nm) and polydispersity index (0.38). Acylation enhanced the intermolecular interactions within the nanogel by reducing the polarity of tyrosine microenvironment and free sulfhydryl groups. AKBPI-nanogels demonstrated remarkable characteristics in terms of pH sensitivity, salt concentration, and storage tolerance. The curcumin-loaded AKBPI-nanogels exhibited an encapsulation efficiency of 92.30 % and maintained high antioxidant activity. In simulated gastrointestinal digestion, AKBPI-nanogels facilitated the controlled release and higher bioavailability of curcumin. Therefore, AKBPI-nanogels can be a stable tool for delivering curcumin.

Food Chem 2023; 419:136044. [PMID: 37011570 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.136044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/24/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023]
Abstract
The regulation mechanism of ionic strength (0-1000 mM) on the freeze-thaw (FT) stability of emulsions stabilized by myofibrillar protein microgel particles (MMP) was systematically investigated. High ionic strength emulsions (300-1000 mM) exhibited stability after five FT cycles. With ionic strength increasing, the repulsive force between particles gradually reduced, the flocculation degree (20.72 ∼ 75.60%) and apparent viscosity of emulsions gradually rose (69 ∼ 170 mPa·s), promoting the formation of protein network structures in the continuous phase. Concurrently, the interfacial proteins rearranged (18.8 ∼ 104.2 s-1) and aggregated rapidly, facilitating the formation of a stable interface network structure, ultimately improving its stability. Besides, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed that the interfacial proteins gradually aggregated, further forming a network with the MMP in the continuous phase, allowing MMP emulsions with enhanced FT stability at high ionic strength (300-1000 mM). This study was beneficial to produce emulsion-based sauces with ultra-high FT stability.

Abstract
In this study, salt addition (NaCl and CaCl2) was utilized to improve the stability of emulsions formed by rice bran protein (RBP). The result showed that salt addition improved the adsorption of protein on the oil-water interface and enhanced the physical stability of emulsions. Compared to NaCl condition, emulsions with CaCl2 (especially 200 mM) addition exhibited more significant storage stability, as microscopy images showed emulsion structure unchanged and droplet size increasing slightly from 12.02 µm to 16.04 µm in 7 days. It was attributed to the strengthened particle complexation with CaCl2 and the increased hydrophobic interactions, which is explained by the improved particle size (260.93 nm), surface hydrophobicity (1890.10) and fluorescence intensity, thus inducing dense and hardly destroyed interfacial layers. Rheological behavior analyses suggested that salt-induced emulsions had higher viscoelasticity and maintained a stable gel-like structure. The result of study explored the mechanism of salt treated protein particles, developed a further understanding of Pickering emulsion, and was beneficial to the application of RBP.

Abstract
Heat-induced gel-assisted desalination could efficiently and inexpensively remove salt from salted egg whites. However, it was at the expense of the excellent foaming properties of egg whites, caused by the denaturation and aggregation of proteins during heating treatment. Hence, in this current work, the enzymatic treatment was used to re-endow duck egg white nanogels (DEWN) with outstanding foaming properties. We found that low levels of hydrolysis (DH = 2.27 %) could dramatically improve the foaming capability (FC), reaching >200 %, which also enhanced the foaming stability (FS). As the hydrolysis time extended, the adsorption and diffusion rate of the supernatant on the interface increased and performed high elasticity. The dilatational rheology and Lissajous plots were explored to investigate the nonlinear dilatational rheological behaviors of the air/water interface stabilized by the hydrolysed samples. Finally, we evaluated the effect of pH on foaming properties and found that the FC could exceed 250 %, and the FS was close to 80 % at pH = 5. These encouraging results showed that simple enzymatic treatment could revive nanogels from their dissatisfied foaming properties. In this work, gel-assisted desalination combined with enzyme treatment significantly promotes the high-quality and high-value utilization of salted egg white.

Effects of the Incorporation of Calcium Chloride on the Physical and Oxidative Stability of Filled Hydrogel Particles. Foods 2022; 11:foods11030278.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of calcium chloride (CaCl2) addition on the physical and oxidative stabilities of filled hydrogel were investigated. The results revealed that CaCl2 significantly enhanced the particle size, interfacial layer thickness, apparent viscosity, and viscoelastic behavior of filled hydrogels and decreased their light and whiteness values (p < 0.05). This phenomenon was mainly attributed to the strong binding ability between Ca2+ and protein/pectin mixtures, which were present in the interfacial area or aqueous phase, as verified by cryo-scanning electron microscopy results. Moreover, lower levels of CaCl2 (2 or 4 mM) significantly enhanced the oxidative stability of filled hydrogels (p < 0.05), particularly at a concentration of 4 mM. However, a higher level of CaCl2 (6 or 8 mM) resulted in an electrostatic shielding effect, which resulted in the aggregation of multiple droplets and the flocculation of the filled hydrogels, which negatively affected the oxidative stability of filled hydrogels. The findings of this study indicated that appropriate Ca2+ levels (4 mM) improved the physical and oxidative stability of filled hydrogel, and this finding may provide useful insights for the development of effective delivery systems for specific applications.
