Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 274:133296. [PMID: 38914399 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133296] [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: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024]
Abstract
Soybean protein isolate (SPI) is widely used in the food industry. However, SPI-based emulsion gels tend to aggregate and undergo oiling-off during freeze-thawing. In this study, emulsion gels were prepared by a combination of heat treatment and ionic cross-linking using SPI and sodium alginate (SA) as raw materials. The focus was on exploring the mechanistic effects of the SPI-SA double network structure on the freeze-thaw stability of emulsion gels. The results showed that the addition of SA could form different types of network structures with SPI, due to different degrees of phase separation. In addition, SA appearing on the SPI network indicated that the addition of Ca2+ shielded the electrostatic repulsion between SPI and SA to form SPI-SA complexes. The disappearance of the characteristic peaks of SA and SPI in Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis also confirmed this view. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance data revealed that SA played a role in restricting water migration within the emulsion gels, increasing bound water content, and thereby improving the water-holding capacity of the emulsion gels. Therefore, the incorporation of SA improved the freeze-thaw stability of SPI emulsion gels. These findings offer a theoretical basis and technical support for SPI application in frozen products.

Abstract
In this study, it was found that the enhancement in the viability of Lactobacillus plantarum under gastrointestinal conditions by encapsulating them within novel C-Phycocyanin-pectin based hydrogels (from 5.7 to 7.1 log/CFU). The hardness, the strength and the stability of the hydrogels increased when the protein concentration was increased. In addition, the addition of resveratrol (RES), and tannic acid (TA) could improve the hardness (from 595.4 to 608.3 and 637.0 g) and WHC (from 93.9 to 94.2 and 94.8 %) of the hydrogels. The addition of gallic acid (GA) enhanced the hardness (675.0 g) of the hydrogels, but the WHC (86.2 %) was decreased. During simulated gastrointestinal conditions and refrigerated storage, the addition of TA enhanced the viable bacteria counts (from 6.8 and 8.0 to 7.5 and 8.5 log/CFU) of Lactobacillus plantarum. Furthermore, TA and GA are completely encased by the protein-pectin gel as an amorphous state, while RA is only partially encased.

[PMID: 39042555 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.17261] [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: 04/10/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 07/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/25/2024]
Abstract
Inulin, a prebiotic utilized in the food and pharmaceutical industries, promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria in the colon, thereby enhancing human health. Although inulin is commercially produced from chicory and artichoke, Inula helenium roots offer a high potential for inulin production. The aim of this study is to investigate the prebiotic activity of inulin (inulin-P) from I. helenium roots on Lactobacillus rhamnosus, as well as its ability to produce synbiotic microcapsules and the effects on probiotic viability during freeze-drying, in vitro gastrointestinal (GI) digestion, and storage. First, the effect of inulin-P on L. rhamnosus viability and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production was compared to other commonly utilized prebiotics. The findings revealed that inulin-P remarkably promoted the growth and SCFA yield of L. rhamnosus for 48 h of fermentation and 28 days of storage. Then, L. rhamnosus was encapsulated with inulin-P and commercial inulin to compare its survival throughout storage and the GI tract. Inulin-P microcapsules outperformed in terms of viability during storage (7.98 log CFU/g after 30 days at 4°C). Furthermore, inulin-P microcapsules were heat-resistant and protected L. rhamnosus from GI conditions, resulting in a high survival rate (89.52%) following large intestine simulation, which is ideal for increasing customer benefits. Additionally, inulin-P microcapsules exhibited similar physical characteristics to commercial inulin. Consequently, this study revealed that inulin-P, which is easy to produce, low-cost, and has industrial application potential, could be used as a good carrier for the synbiotic encapsulation of L. rhamnosus. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Inulin is a prebiotic that promotes the activity and growth of beneficial bacteria in the human gut. Although commercial inulin is currently produced from chicory root and artichoke, Inula helenium root is a potential raw material for inulin production. In this study, inulin was produced from I. helenium roots with a low-cost and easy production method, and it was determined that this inulin was an effective carrier in the synbiotic encapsulation of L. rhamnosus. This inulin exhibits superior prebiotic activity and encapsulation efficiency compared to commercial inulins like Orafti® GR and HPX and can be easily integrated into industrial production.

[PMID: 39063342 PMCID: PMC11275290 DOI: 10.3390/foods13142259] [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: 06/16/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Probiotics have many beneficial physiological activities, but the poor stability during storage and gastrointestinal digestion limits their application. Therefore, in this study, a novel type of shell-core microbead for loading probiotics was prepared through high-precision concentric drop formation technology using gelatin as the shell material and lipids as the core material. The microbeads have a regular spherical structure, uniform size, low moisture content (<4%) and high probiotic activity (>9.0 log CFU/g). Textural testing showed that the hardness of the medium-chain triglyceride microbeads (MCTBs), cocoa butter replacer microbeads (CBRBs) and hydrogenated palm oil microbeads (HPOBs) increased gradually (319.65, 623.54, 711.41 g), but their springiness decreased (67.7, 43.3, 34.0%). Importantly, lipids with higher melting points contributed to the enhanced stability of probiotics during simulated digestion and storage. The viable probiotic counts of the HCTBs, CBRBs and HPOBs after being stored at 25 °C for 12 months were 8.01, 8.44, and 8.51 log CFU/g, respectively. In the simulated in vitro digestion process, the HPOBs resisted the destructive effects of digestive enzymes and gastric acid on probiotics, with a reduction in the probiotic viability of less than 1.5 log CFU/g. This study can provide new ideas for the preparation of intestinal delivery probiotic foods.

Short-term supplementation with uncoated and encapsulated Enterococcus faecium affected growth performance, gut microbiome and intestinal barrier integrity in broiler chickens. Poult Sci 2024; 103:103808. [PMID: 38761463 PMCID: PMC11133978 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2024.103808] [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: 02/05/2024] [Revised: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Enterococcus faecium (E. faecium) is an alternative to antibiotics, while the probiotic effect of short-term application in mature broiler chickens remains unclear. In the current study, 48 Arbor Acres male broilers were chosen to investigate the effects of E. faecium on growth performance, the gut microbiome and intestinal health during the finishing period. Forty-eight birds were randomly allocated to 4 treatment groups that were fed a corn-soybean meal basal diet (Con), a basal diet supplemented with 1 g/kg amoxicillin (ABX), 5×106 CFU/g encapsulated E. faecium (cEF), or 5×106 CFU/g uncoated E. faecium (EF) from d 33 to 42. The results showed that 10 d of antibiotic treatment decreased the growth performance of the broilers (P < 0.05). The feed conversion ratio of the cEF and EF groups were lower than that of the Con group by 0.13 and 0.07, respectively (P > 0.05). The abundance of viable ileal and cecal E. faecium in the cEF group was greater than that in the EF group (P < 0.05), and both groups were markedly greater than those in the Con and ABX groups (P < 0.05). The ABX treatment decreased the Shannon and Chao1 indices of the cecal microbiota, while the dietary E. faecium treatment resulted in significant differences in the β diversity of the ileal and cecal microbiota (P < 0.05). Mantel correlation revealed that the ileal microbiota at the genus level was significantly correlated with the growth performance of broilers, with Lactobacillus, Bacillus and Escherichia-Shigella showing positive and strong correlations (P < 0.05). In the ileum, the crypt depth was lower in the cEF group than in the Con group, but the villi height-to-crypt depth ratio was greater in the cEF group than in the other groups (P = 0.037). However, the expression of the ZO-2 and Occludin genes was downregulated in the E. faecium-fed birds (P < 0.05). In the cecum, the acetate, butyrate and total SCFA levels were greater in the EF group (P < 0.05), while the propionate, isobutyrate and isovalerate levels were lower in the ABX group (P < 0.05). In summary, 10 d of dietary supplementation with E. faecium markedly increased colonization in mature broilers and potentially improved growth performance by modulating the ileal microbiota. Encapsulation techniques could enable a slow release of E. faecium in the intestine, thereby reducing the negative impacts of rapid expansion of E. faecium on the intestinal epithelium.

Abstract
This study investigated the potential of a novel sustainable ingredient composed of rapeseed oil, linseed meal and beta-glucan (PALM-ALT) to mimic palm shortening functionality in cake. The combined functional properties of linseed meal and beta-glucan led to stable semi-solid emulsion-gels (20-31 μm oil droplet size, 105-115 Pa.s viscosity and 60-65 Pa yield stress). PALM-ALT contained 25 and 88% less total and saturated fat than palm shortening, whilst PALM-ALT cakes contained 26 and 75% less total and saturated fat than the palm-based control. PALM-ALT cakes matched the flavour profile of the palm-based control, while rapeseed oil cakes tasted more sour and less sweet than the control (p < 0.05). PALM-ALT cakes proved less hard and more cohesive than the control (p < 0.05), with 100% of the consumer panel preferring PALM-ALT formulations. This study demonstrated the unique potential of PALM-ALT as healthier, sustainable and competitive alternative to palm shortening.

Abstract
Food industry is increasingly using functional ingredients to improve the food product quality. Lipid-containing functional ingredients are important sources of nutrients. This review examines the current state of emulsification and stabilisation technologies for incorporating lipophilic functional ingredients into food systems. Lipophilic functional ingredients, such as omega-3 fatty acids, carotenoids, and fat-soluble vitamins, offer numerous health benefits but present challenges due to their limited solubility in water-based food matrices. Emulsification techniques enable the dispersion of these ingredients in aqueous environments, facilitating their inclusion in a variety of food products. This review highlights recent advances in food emulsion formulation, emulsification methods and stabilisation techniques which, together, improve the stability and bioavailability of lipophilic compounds. The role of various emulsifiers, stabilizers, and encapsulation materials in enhancing the functionality of these ingredients is also explored. Furthermore, the review discusses different stabilisation techniques which can yield in emulsion in a solid or liquid state. By providing a comprehensive overview of current technologies, this review aims to guide future research and application in the development of functional foods enriched with lipophilic ingredients.

Abstract
Lactiplantibacillus plantarum M5 and Goji Berry extract were co-microencapsulated to maintain the activity of cells during gastrointestinal digestion, and the mechanism by which they could maintain high activity was investigated. The results showed that the microcapsules with 3% Goji Berry extract(A-GE-3) had the largest encapsulation efficiency(EE) of 92.41 ± 0.58%. SEM showed that the structure of A-GE-3 microcapsules were smoother and denser. Cell viability in A-GE-3 microcapsules remained at 7.17 log10 CFU/g after gastrointestinal digestion. Meanwhile, during the gastrointestinal digestion with 3% Goji Berry extract, cell membrane damage detected by fluorescent probes propidium iodide(PI) and 1.1-N-phenylnaphthylamine(NPN) was significantly reduced; the contents of arginine, glutamic acid and oleic acid in cell membrane were increased, which helped to maintain the dynamic balance of intracellular pH and regulated cell membrane fluidity in response to gastrointestinal environment. This study demonstrated the potential of Goji Berry extract as a probiotic protector in gastrointestinal digestion.

Abstract
Probiotics-based oral therapy has become a promising way to prevent and treat various diseases, while the application of probiotics is primarily restricted by loss of viability due to adverse conditions in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract during oral delivery. Layer-by-layer (LbL) single-cell encapsulation approaches are widely employed to improve the bioavailability of probiotics. However, they are generally time- and labor-intensive owing to multistep operation. Herein, a simple yet efficient LbL technique is developed to coat a model probiotic named Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) through polyphenol-Ca2+ network directed allyl-modified gelatin (GelAGE) adsorption followed by cross-linking of GelAGE via photoinitiated thiol-ene click reaction to protect EcN from harsh microenvironments of GI tract. LbL single-cell encapsulation can be performed within 1 h through simple operation. It is revealed that coated EcN exhibits significantly improved viability against acidic gastric fluid and bile salts, and enhanced colonization in the intestinal tract without loss of proliferation capabilities. Furthermore, oral therapy of coated EcN remarkably relieves the pathological symptoms associated with colitis in mice including down-regulating inflammation, repairing epithelial barriers, scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS), and restoring the homeostasis of gut microbiota. This simplified LbL coating strategy has great potential for various probiotics-mediated biomedical and nutraceutical applications.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic disorder that affects millions of individuals worldwide. However, current drug therapies for IBD are plagued by significant side effects, low efficacy, and poor patient compliance. Consequently, there is an urgent need for novel therapeutic approaches to alleviate IBD. Hydrogels, three-dimensional networks of hydrophilic polymers with the ability to swell and retain water, have emerged as promising materials for drug delivery in the treatment of IBD due to their biocompatibility, tunability, and responsiveness to various stimuli. In this review, we summarize recent advancements in hydrogel-based drug delivery systems for the treatment of IBD. We first identify three pathophysiological alterations that need to be addressed in the current treatment of IBD: damage to the intestinal mucosal barrier, dysbiosis of intestinal flora, and activation of inflammatory signaling pathways leading to disequilibrium within the intestines. Subsequently, we discuss in depth the processes required to prepare hydrogel drug delivery systems, from the selection of hydrogel materials, types of drugs to be loaded, methods of drug loading and drug release mechanisms to key points in the preparation of hydrogel drug delivery systems. Additionally, we highlight the progress and impact of the hydrogel-based drug delivery system in IBD treatment through regulation of physical barrier immune responses, promotion of mucosal repair, and improvement of gut microbiota. In conclusion, we analyze the challenges of hydrogel-based drug delivery systems in clinical applications for IBD treatment, and propose potential solutions from our perspective.

Abstract
Probiotics have recently received significant attention due to their various benefits, such as the modulation of gut flora, reduction of blood sugar and insulin resistance, prevention and treatment of digestive disorders, and strengthening of the immune system. One of the major issues concerning probiotics is the maintenance of their viability in the presence of digestive conditions and extended shelf life during storage. To address this concern, numerous techniques have been explored to achieve success. Among these methods, the microencapsulation of probiotics has been proposed as the most effective way to overcome this challenge. The combination of nanomaterials with biopolymer coating is considered a novel approach to improve its viability and effective delivery. The use of polysaccharides and proteins-based bionanocomposites for microencapsulation of probiotics has emerged as an efficient and promising approach for maintaining cell viability and targeted delivery. This review article aims to investigate the use of different bionanocomposites in microencapsulation of probiotics and their effect on cell survival in long-term storage and harsh conditions in the gastrointestinal tract.

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: 37935287 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127907] [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: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023]
Abstract
Probiotics must survive in foods and passage through the human mouth, stomach, and small intestine to reach the colon in a viable state and exhibit their beneficial health effects. Probiotic viability can be improved by encapsulating them inside hydrogel-based delivery systems. These systems typically comprise a 3D network of cross-linked polymers that retain large amounts of water within their pores. This study discussed the stability of probiotics and morphology of hydrogel beads after encapsulation, encapsulation efficiency, utilization of natural polymers, and encapsulation mechanisms. Examples of the application of these hydrogel-based delivery systems are then given. These studies show that encapsulation of probiotics in hydrogels can improve their viability, provide favorable conditions in the food matrix, and control their release for efficient colonization in the large intestine. Finally, we highlight areas where future research is required, such as the large-scale production of encapsulated probiotics and the in vivo testing of their efficacy using animal and human studies.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the role of hydrolysis and guar gum (GG) participation on the emulsification of the duck myofibrillar protein (MP) and the related stability of oil-in-water emulsion in low-salt condition. Emulsions were prepared using one of each or both treatments, and that prepared with trypsin hydrolysis and GG (T-GG) exhibited the highest stability. FTIR analysis confirmed the hydrogen bond interactions between the system components. T-GG treatment improved emulsion properties and decreased oil droplet size. Moreover, CLSM indicated that aggregation of T-GG oil droplets was prevented. Physical stability was assessed such as Turbiscan stability index, creaming index, and rheological properties. The adsorbed percentage for T-GG was the lowest. However, interfacial tension, droplet size, stability, and peroxide value analyses indicated that a denser interfacial membrane structure is formed with T-GG. Thus, T-GG treatment could be applied in the food industry, such as in nutrient delivery systems and fat mimetics.

Abstract
Probiotics are essential to improve the health of the host, whereas maintaining the viability of probiotics in harsh environments remains a challenge. Polysaccharides have non-toxicity, excellent biocompatibility, and outstanding biodegradability, which can protect probiotics by forming a physical barrier and show a promising prospect for probiotic delivery. In this review, we summarize polysaccharides commonly used for probiotic microencapsulation and introduce the microencapsulation technologies, including extrusion, emulsion, spray drying, freeze drying, and electrohydrodynamics. We discuss strategies for better protection of probiotics and introduce the applications of polysaccharides-encapsulated probiotics in functional food, oral formulation, and animal feed. Finally, we propose the challenges of polysaccharides-based delivery systems in industrial production and application. This review will help provide insight into the advances and challenges of polysaccharides in probiotic delivery.

Abstract
In this study, we developed a novel delivery system using carboxymethyl konjac glucomannan-chitosan (CMKGM-CS) nanogels stabilized single and double emulsion incorporated into alginate hydrogel as microcapsule matrix for intestinal-targeted delivery of probiotics. Through in vitro experiments, it was demonstrated that alginate hydrogel provided favorable biocompatible growth conditions for the proliferation of Lactobacillus reuteri (LR). The alginate hydrogel containing single (ASE) or double emulsions (ACG) enhanced the resistance of LR to various adverse environments. Simulated gastrointestinal digestion experiments revealed that the survivability of LR in free, CON, ASE and ACG group decreased by 6.45 log CFU/g, 4.21 log CFU/g, 1.26 log CFU/g and 0.65 log CFU/g, respectively. In vivo studies conducted in mice showed that ACG maintained its integrity during passage through the stomach and released the probiotics in the targeted intestinal area, whereas the pure alginate hydrogels (CON) were prematurely released in the gastrointestinal tract. Moreover, the viable counts of ACG in different intestinal segments (jejunum, ileum, cecum, and colon) were increased by 1.11, 1.42, 1.68, and 1.89 log CFU/g, respectively, after 72 h of oral administration compared to the CON group. This research contributed valuable insights into the development of an effective microbial delivery system with potential applications in the biopharmaceutical and food industries.

Abstract
The giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) is a high-yielding prawn variety well-received worldwide due to its ability to adapt to freshwater culture systems. Macrobrachium rosenbergii is an alternative to shrimp typically obtained from marine and brackish aquaculture systems. However, the use of intensive culture systems can lead to disease outbreaks, particularly in larval and post-larval stages, caused by pathogenic agents such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, yeasts and protozoans. White tail disease (viral), white spot syndrome (viral) and bacterial necrosis are examples of economically significant diseases. Given the increasing antibiotic resistance of disease-causing microorganisms, probiotics have emerged as promising alternatives for disease control. Probiotics are live active microbes that are introduced into a target host in an adequate number or dose to promote its health. In the present paper, we first discuss the diseases that occur in M. rosenbergii production, followed by an in-depth discussion on probiotics. We elaborate on the common methods of probiotics administration and explain the beneficial health effects of probiotics as immunity enhancers. Moreover, we discuss the antagonistic effects of probiotics on pathogenic microorganisms. Altogether, this paper provides a comprehensive overview of disease control in M. rosenbergii aquaculture through the use of probiotics, which could enhance the sustainability of prawn culture.

Abstract
The increasing demand for probiotic-fortified fruit juices stems from the dietary requirements of individuals with dairy allergies, lactose intolerance, and vegetarian diets. However, a notable obstacle arises from the degradation of probiotics in fruit juices due to their low pH levels and harsh gastrointestinal conditions. In response, this study proposes an innovative approach utilizing a microfluidic chip to create core-shell microcapsules that contain Lactobacillus plantarum Lp90. This method, based on internal-external gelation, forms highly uniform microcapsules that fully enclose the core, which consists of oil-in-water Pickering emulsions stabilized by salmon byproduct protein and sodium alginate. These emulsions remain stable for up to 72 h at a 1% sodium alginate concentration. The shell layer incorporates kelp nanocellulose and sodium alginate, thus improving the thermal properties. Furthermore, compared to free probiotics, the multilayer structure of the core-shell microcapsules provides a robust barrier, resulting in significantly enhanced probiotic stability. These findings introduce a novel strategy for augmenting probiotic delivery in functional fruit juice beverages, promising solutions to the challenges encountered during their development.

Abstract
Probiotics have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their potential advantages in diverse biomedical applications, such as acting as antimicrobial agents, aiding in tissue repair, and treating diseases. These live bacteria must exist in appropriate quantities and precise locations to exert beneficial effects. However, their viability and activity can be significantly impacted by the surrounding tissue, posing a challenge to maintain their stability in the target location for an extended duration. To counter this, researchers have formulated various strategies that enhance the activity and stability of probiotics by encapsulating them within biomaterials. This approach enables site-specific release, overcoming technical impediments encountered during the processing and application of probiotics. A range of materials can be utilized for encapsulating probiotics, and several methods can be employed for this encapsulation process. This article reviews the recent advancements in probiotics encapsulated within biomaterials, examining the materials, methods, and effects of encapsulation. It also provides an overview of the hurdles faced by currently available biomaterial-based probiotic capsules and suggests potential future research directions in this field. Despite the progress achieved to date, numerous challenges persist, such as the necessity for developing efficient, reproducible encapsulation methods that maintain the viability and activity of probiotics. Furthermore, there is a need to design more robust and targeted delivery vehicles.

Abstract
Although protein-polysaccharide complexes have shown tremendous potential in stabilizing high internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs), it is unclear whether coacervates have the same potential to be used as effective Pickering stabilizers. In this study, HIPPEs were prepared by ovalbumin (OVA)-pectin (PE) coacervates during the transition from coacervates to complexes. The results showed that enhanced OVA-PE interactions significantly affected the wettability and surface-tension reduction ability of the OVA-PE coacervates. At pH 2, the coacervate-stabilized HIPPEs exhibited smaller oil droplet sizes (21.3±2.3 μm), tighter droplet packing, and finer solid-like structures through the bridging of droplets and the generation of stronger gel-like network structures to prevent coalescence and lipid oxidation. The gastrointestinal digestion results proved that the OVA-PE coacervates promoted lipid hydrolysis and improved the bioaccessibility (from 19.7±0.7% to 36.5±2%) of curcumin-loaded HIPPEs. Our work provides new ideas for the development of biopolymer particles as effective Pickering stabilizers in the food industry.

Abstract
Different xanthan gum (XG) concentrations on the rheological/texture properties of Pickering emulsion (PE) gel stabilized by tea protein/xanthan gum (TP/XG) were studied to achieve an ink feasible for 3D printing. Afterwards, the effects of 3D printing and digestion process on the viability of probiotics were studied when encapsulated in the PE gel. Results indicated that gel strength, stability, storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G″) increased as XG concentration increased. Nozzle diameter and printing temperature of 45 and 55℃ had no significant effect on probiotic's viability, but printing temperature of 65℃ reduced viable probiotics from 8.07 to 6.59 log CFU/g. No significant change of probiotics viability in 3D printed samples was observed during 11-day storage at 4℃. PE gel encapsulated probiotic's viability was significantly improved under heat treatment and simulated gastrointestinal environment. This study gives insights on the production of 3D printed foods using PE gel incorporating probiotics.

Abstract
People are exploring the potential application of 3D printing in food, biomedicine and environment, but it is urgent to find suitable bio-ink. Bio-ink compounded with starch and hydrocolloid can not only improve the rheology, structure and printability of starch-based edible bio-ink, but also endow it with other functional characteristics, so that it can be applied to food, biomedicine and even the environment, and meet the strategic needs of national health, green and sustainable development. In this paper, hydrocolloids are reviewed as potential means to regulate the physicochemical properties of starch, which endows it with good printability and presents excellent printing products. The specific applications of the bio-ink in the fields of food, biomedicine and environment in hypoglycemic, lipid-lowering, swallowable food, delivery, intelligent materials, and bio-sensor are also discussed. Then, the challenges and future development trends of realizing large-scale application are prospected. Proper physicochemical properties of starch-hydrocolloid are positively correlated with printability. The presentation of excellent printability has realized the application in different fields, not only satisfies most people, but also create benefits for some specific people. This review is expected to provide some theoretical guidance for the further development of 3D printing technology and its large-scale application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the present study, the Lactobacillus plantarum ELB90 was encapsulated in double emulsion (W1/O/W2) loaded alginate beads (emulbeads) by electrospraying and compared with emulsion-free control beads. The viability of encapsulated and free cells was assessed by exposing them to thermal processing (65 °C for 30 min and 72 °C for 3 min) and simulated gastrointestinal conditions. The beads were characterized by optical, scanning electron, fluorescence, and confocal laser scanning microscopy, as well as Fourier transform infrared and gel strength analysis. RESULTS After the intestinal stage of digestion, the survival rate of free bacteria was 38% [3.70 log colony-forming units (CFU) g-1 ], only increased to 43% and 53% for bare and chitosan-coated control beads, and it elevated the survival rate to 75% and 84% (8.70 log CFU g-1 ) for bare and chitosan-coated emulbeads, respectively. The presence of inulin increased gastrointestinal viability only in uncoated emulbeads. The bacteria loaded in emulbeads retained greater viability (5.90-6.90 log CFU g-1 ) against thermal treatment, compared to control beads (2.07-4.10 log CFU g-1 ) and free bacteria (2.57-3.11 log CFU mL-1 ). Encapsulation of L. plantarum ELB90 only in emulsion-free beads may not be appropriate for providing thermal stability. Inulin addition and chitosan-coating of the beads increased the size, and emulbeads presented smoother surfaces compared to emulsion-free beads. CONCLUSION The contribution of a double emulsion into the gel matrix of electrosprayed alginate beads exhibited enhanced protection for probiotic bacteria that could be useful for the development of functional foods. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Techniques capable of producing small-sized probiotic microcapsules with high encapsulation yields are of industrial and scientific interest. In this study, an innovative membrane emulsification system was investigated in the production of microcapsules containing Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG® (Lr), sodium alginate (ALG), and whey protein (WPI), rice protein (RPC), or pea protein (PPC) as encapsulating agents. The microcapsules were characterized by particle size distribution, optical microscopy, encapsulation yield, morphology, water activity, hygroscopicity, thermal properties, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and probiotic survival during in vitro simulation of gastrointestinal conditions. The innovative encapsulation technique resulted in microcapsules with diameters varying between 18 and 29 μm, and encapsulation yields > 93%. Combining alginate and whey, rice, or pea protein improved encapsulation efficiency and thermal properties. The encapsulation provided resistance to gastrointestinal fluids, resulting in high probiotic viability at the end of the intestinal phase (> 7.18 log CFU g-1). The proposed encapsulation technology represents an attractive alternative to developing probiotic microcapsules for future food applications.

Co-Extraction of Flaxseed Protein and Polysaccharide with a High Emulsifying and Foaming Property: Enrichment through the Sequence Extraction Approach. Foods 2023; 12:foods12061256. [PMID: 36981182 PMCID: PMC10048294 DOI: 10.3390/foods12061256] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 03/05/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023] Open
Abstract
A new focus with respect to the extraction of plant protein is that ingredient enrichment should target functionality instead of pursuing purity. Herein, the sequence aqueous extraction method was used to co-enrich five protein-polysaccharide natural fractions from flaxseed meal, and their composition, structure, and functional properties were investigated. The total recovery rate of flaxseed protein obtained by the sequence extraction approach was more than 80%, which was far higher than the existing reports. The defatted flaxseed meal was soaked by deionized water to obtain fraction 1 (supernatant), and the residue was further treated to get fraction 2 (supernatant) and 3 (precipitate) through weak alkali solubilization. Part of the fraction 2 was taken out, followed by adjusting its pH to 4.2. After centrifuging, the albumin-rich supernatant and precipitate with protein content of 73.05% were gained and labeled as fraction 4 and fraction 5. The solubility of fraction 2 and 4 exceeded 90%, and the foaming ability and stability of fraction 5 were 12.76 times and 9.89 times higher than commercial flaxseed protein, respectively. The emulsifying properties of fractions 1, 2, and 5 were all greater than that of commercial sodium caseinate, implying that these fractions could be utilized as high-efficiency emulsifiers. Cryo-SEM results showed that polysaccharides in fractions were beneficial to the formation of network structure and induced the formation of tighter and smoother interfacial layers, which could prevent emulsion flocculation, disproportionation, and coalescence. This study provides a reference to promote the high-value utilization of flaxseed meals.

Abstract
Probiotics are associated with health benefits to the host. However, their application can be limited due to a decrease in cell viability during processing, storage, and passage through the gastrointestinal tract. Microencapsulation is a simple and efficient alternative to improve the physical protection and stability of probiotics. The present study aimed to produce and characterize alginate or gelatin-based microparticles containing Lactobacillus acidophilus NRRL B-4495 or Lactiplantibacillus plantarum NRRL B-4496 by oil-in-water (O/W) emulsification and to evaluate the stability under storage conditions. The results showed that L. acidophilus and L. plantarum encapsulated in gelatin (LAEG and LPEG) presented diameters of 26.08 ± 1.74 μm and 21.56 ± 4.17 μm and encapsulation efficiencies of 89.6 ± 4.2% and 81.1 ± 9.7%, respectively. However, those encapsulated in alginate (LAEA and LPEA) showed an encapsulation efficiency of <1.0%. Furthermore, LAEG was stable for 120 days of storage at 5 °C and 25 °C. Therefore, encapsulation in gelatin by O/W emulsification is a promising strategy for protecting and stabilizing probiotic bacteria, enabling future application in foods.

Abstract
The application of probiotics is limited by the loss of survival due to food processing, storage, and gastrointestinal tract. Encapsulation is a key technology for overcoming these challenges. The review focuses on the latest progress in probiotic encapsulation since 2020, especially precision engineering on microbial surfaces and microbial-mediated role. Currently, the encapsulation materials include polysaccharides and proteins, followed by lipids, which is a traditional mainstream trend, while novel plant extracts and polyphenols are on the rise. Other natural materials and processing by-products are also involved. The encapsulation types are divided into rough multicellular encapsulation, precise single-cell encapsulation, and microbial-mediated encapsulation. Recent emerging techniques include cryomilling, 3D printing, spray-drying with a three-fluid coaxial nozzle, and microfluidic. Encapsulated probiotics applied in food is an upward trend in which "classic probiotic foods" (yogurt, cheese, butter, chocolate, etc.) are dominated, supplemented by "novel probiotic foods" (tea, peanut butter, and various dry-based foods). Future efforts mainly include the effect of novel encapsulation materials on probiotics in the gut, encapsulation strategy oriented by microbial enthusiasm and precise encapsulation, development of novel techniques that consider both cost and efficiency, and co-encapsulation of multiple strains. In conclusion, encapsulation provides a strong impetus for the food application of probiotics.

Abstract
The burden of public health challenges associated with the western dietary and living style is growing. Nutraceuticals have been paid increasing attentions due to their effects in promotion of health. However, in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, the nutraceuticals suffer from not only the harsh acidic environment of the stomach and a variety of digestive enzymes, but also the antibacterial activity of intestinal bile salts and the action of protease from the gut microbiota. The amount of the nutraceuticals arriving at the sites in GI tract for absorption or exerting the bioactivities is always unfortunately limited, which puts forward high requirements for protection of nutraceuticals in a certain high contents during oral consumption. Hydrogels are three-dimensional polymeric porous networks formed by the cross-linking of polymer chains, which can hold huge amounts of water. Compared with other carries with the size in microscopic scale such as nanoparticle and microcapsules, hydrogels could be considered to be more suitable delivery systems in food due to their macroscopic bulk properties, adjustable viscoelasticity and large spatial structure for embedding nutraceuticals. Regarding to the applications in food, natural polymer-based hydrogels are commonly safe and popular due to their source with the appealing characteristics of affordability, biodegradability and biocompatibility. Although chemical crosslinking has been widely utilized in preparation of hydrogels, it prefers the physical crosslinking in the researches in food. The reasonable design for the structure of natural polymeric hydrogels is essential for seeking the favorable functionalities to apply in the delivery system, and it could be possible to obtain the enhanced adhesive property, acid stability, resistant to bile salt, and the controlled release behavior. The hydrogels prepared with proteins, polysaccharides or the mix of them to deliver the functional ingredients, mainly the phenolic components, vitamins, probiotics are discussed to obtain inspiration for the wide applications in delivery systems. Further efforts might be made in the in situ formation of hydrogels in GI tract through the interaction among food polymers and small-molecular ingredients, elevation of the loading contents of nutraceuticals in hydrogels, development of stomach adhesive hydrogels as well as targeting modification of gut microbiota by the hydrogels.

Abstract
The development of probiotics encapsulation strategies has always been a hot topic due to the high sensitivity of probiotics to processing, storage and the gastrointestinal environment. In this study, water in oil (W/O) emulsions of single-phase or dual-phase gels were constructed through the water phase, oil phase alone or all gels. And the W/O emulsions were used to encapsulate Bifidobacterium lactis V9. The effects of water, oil and biphasic gels on the physicochemical properties of the emulsion and the probiotic activity were investigated. Water, oil and biphasic gels contribute to the stability of emulsions. Oil-phase gels make the emulsion form a solid-like texture, while water-phase gels have no significant effect on the liquidity of the emulsion. The microscopic image shows that the probiotics were completely encapsulated in the internal aqueous phase due to the excellent water affinity of probiotic powder. In addition, all W/O emulsions retain higher probiotic activity, which is attributed to good physical isolation during the gastric phase, while oil-phase and biphasic gel emulsions have high probiotic activity after intestinal digestion due to reduced lipid digestion by oil-phase gels. A liquid or solid-state encapsulated probiotic emulsion has been developed and can be used as a coating sauce, solid fat, etc., which can provide additional ideas for probiotic encapsulation systems and functional food development.

Abstract
Gels are functional materials with well-defined structures (three-dimensional networks) assembled from the dispersed colloids, and capable of containing a large amount of water, oil, or air (by replacing the liquid within the gel pores), known as a hydrogel, oleogel, and aerogel, respectively. An emulsion gel is a gelled matrix filled with emulsion dispersion in which at least one phase, either continuous phase or dispersed phase forms spatial networks leading to the formation of a semisolid texture. Recently, the interest in the application of gels as functional colloids has attracted great attention in the food industry due to their tunable morphology and microstructure, promising physicochemical, mechanical, and functional properties, and superior stability, as well as controlled release, features for the encapsulated bioactive compounds. This article covers recent research progress on functional colloids (emulsion gels), including their fabrication, classification (protein-, polysaccharide-, and mixed emulsion gels), and properties specifically those related to the gel-body interactions (texture perception, digestion, and absorption), and industrial applications. The emerging applications, including encapsulation and controlled release, texture design and modification, fat replacement, and probiotics delivery are summarized. A summary of future perspectives to promote emulsion gels' use as functional colloids and delivery systems for scouting potential new applications in the food industry is also proposed. Emulsion gels are promising colloids being used to tailor breakdown behavior and sensory perception of food, as well as for the processing, transportation, and targeted release of food additives, functional ingredients, and bioactive substances with flexibility in designing structural and functional parameters.
