Abstract
An increased demand for natural products nowadays most specifically probiotics (PROs) is evident since it comes in conjunction with beneficial health effects for consumers. In this regard, it is well known that encapsulation could positively affect the PROs' viability throughout food manufacturing and long-term storage. This paper aims to analyze and review various double/multilayer strategies for encapsulation of PROs. Double-layer encapsulation of PROs by electrohydrodynamic atomization or electrospraying technology has been reported along with layer-by-layer assembly and water-in-oil-in-water (W1/O/W2) double emulsions to produce multilayer PROs-loaded carriers. Finally, their applications in food products are presented. The resistance and viability of loaded PROs to mechanical damage, during gastrointestinal transit and shelf life of these trapping systems, are also described. The PROs encapsulation in double- and multiple-layer coatings combined with other technologies can be examined to increase the opportunities for new functional products with amended functionalities opening a novel horizon in food technology.

[PMID: 38395576 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114076] [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: 11/25/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
Opuntia silvestri mucilage obtained from dried stems was explored as an emulsifier to prepare double emulsions aiming to encapsulate Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CIDCA 83114. W1/O/W2 emulsions were prepared using a two-step emulsification method. The aqueous phase (W1) consisted of L. plantarum CIDCA 83114, and the oil phase (O) of sunflower oil. The second emulsion was prepared by mixing the internal W1/O emulsion with the W2 phase, consisting of 4 % polysaccharides, formulated with different mucilage:(citric)pectin ratios. Their stability was assessed after preparation (day 0) and during storage at 4 °C (28 days). Determinations included creaming index, color, particle size, viscosity, turbidity, and bacterial viability, along with exposure to simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Significant differences were evaluated by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Duncan's test (P < 0.05). After 28 days storage, bacterial viability in the W1/O/W2 emulsions was above 6 log CFU/mL for all the pectin:mucilage ratios. Emulsions containing mucilage and pectins showed lower creaming indices after 15 days, remaining stable until the end of the storage period. Formulations including 1:1 pectin:mucilage ratio exhibited the highest bacterial viability under simulated gastrointestinal conditions and were more homogeneous in terms of droplet size distributions at day 0, hinting at a synergistic effect between mucilage components (e.g., proteins, Ca2+) and pectin in stabilizing the emulsions. These results showed that Opuntia silvestri mucilage enhanced the stability of emulsions during refrigerated storage, highlighting its potential for encapsulating lactic acid bacteria. This presents an economical and natural alternative to traditional encapsulating materials.

Emulsifying and whipping properties of mixing polysaccharide dispersions: effect of ratio between insoluble soybean fiber and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2022; 102:6707-6717. [PMID: 35620809 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.12038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2022] [Revised: 04/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The interactions between various food colloids in different systems (e.g., dispersions, emulsions, creams) have a bearing on the processing and characteristics of food systems. Hydrophilic polysaccharides have been proven to have the potential to fabricate the above systems. In the present work, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) was partially replaced by the insoluble soybean fiber (ISF) extracted from defatted okara to prepare mixing dispersions, oil-in-water emulsions and whipped creams. RESULTS The presented work showed that as the proportion of ISF increased, the foaming properties of ISF/HPMC dispersions were enhanced, the absolute value of the ζ-potential and the particle size of the emulsions increased, while the heat stability and centrifugal stability first increased and then decreased. Upon whipping, the loss angle (tan δ) decreased first and then increased, while the overrun, foam stability and cream stability, as well as the elastic modulus (G'), presented the opposite trend. CONCLUSION These results indicated that an appropriate amount (40-60%) of ISF in the ISF/HPMC systems enhanced the foaming and emulsifying capacities of mixtures and the stability of the resultant emulsion; subsequently, the whipping performance and whipped cream network structure were strengthened, suggesting that ISF has great potential for application in whipped cream as a 'green' and safe food ingredient. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
CEO and CA were co-encapsulated in Pickering emulsion for the first time. The wettability of nanoparticles was improved with increasing the ratios of CS to CA. The stability of Pickering emulsion was improved by using CS-CA nanoparticles.
Most of the current research only explored the loading of an active substance in active packaging. In this study, cinnamaldehyde essential oil (CEO) and chlorogenic acid (CA) were co-encapsulated in chitosan (CS) nanoparticles based Pickering emulsion. The morphology and wettability of CS-CA particles were determined. In addition, physicochemical characterizations and stability of the Pickering emulsion were also investigated. Results showed that the wettability of nanoparticles was improved with increasing the ratios of CS to CA, which is helpful to stabilize the emulsion. CEO Pickering emulsion was stabilized by CS-CA nanoparticles and CEO emulsion showed the best stability by using CS-CA nanoparticles with the ratios of CS to CA 1:0.75 with the minimum creaming index value of 26.5 ± 4.6% after 5 days of storage. These overall results presented in this work demonstrate, for the first time, the potential of Pickering emulsion for the co-encapsulation of water-soluble and water-insoluble ingredients.

Abstract
The limited bioavailability of PAHs in non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) limits their degradation. The biodegradation of phenanthrene in n-tetradecane by hydrophilic bacterium Moraxella sp. CFP312 was studied with the assistance of two polymers, chitosan and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). Both chitosan and CMC improved the cell hydrophobicity of CFP312 and increased the contact angle of CFP312 cells from 30.4 to 78.5 and 88.5, respectively. However, CMC increased the degradation ratio of phenanthrene from 45 to nearly 100%, while chitosan did not cause any improvement. We found that CMC was more effective than chitosan in promoting CFP312 to stabilize Pickering emulsion. In the bacteria-CMC complex system, oil was dispersed into small droplets to obtain a high emulsification index and large specific surface area. Moreover, according to the microscopic image of the bacteria-CMC emulsion droplet, we observed that the droplet surface was tightly covered by the CFP312 cells. Therefore, CFP312 cells joined with CMC can utilize phenanthrene in oil phase at the oil-water interface. This study will offer a new strategy for effective microbial degradation of hydrophobic compounds in NAPLs by hydrophilic bacteria. KEY POINTS: • Biodegradation of phenanthrene in Pickering emulsions • Pickering emulsions stabilized by hydrophilic CFP312 joined with CMC. • Phenanthrene was degraded by CFP312 at oil-water interface.

Abstract
Water-oil interface of bacterial cell-stabilized Pickering emulsions is an exceptional habitat for microbial assimilation of both hydrophobic nutrients solubilized in oil phase and hydrophilic ones solubilized in water phase. Crystal substrate inhibition, i.e., decreasing phytosterol degradation with the increase loading of crystal phytosterols, is always observed during microbial transformation of phytosterols into steroid synthons in Mycolicibacterium sp (China Center of Industrial Culture Collection, CICC 21,097) cell-stabilized Pickering emulsions. In the present work, we confirmed that crystal substrate inhibition was attributed to the interaction between M. neoaurum and phytosterol crystals that led to the detachment of bacterial cells from the oil-water interfaces in bacterial cell-stabilized Pickering emulsions. Under the selected operation condition (25 ml BEHP per 40 ml water, 60 g/L glucose, 25 g/L phytosterols), the product androst-4-ene-3, 17-dione (AD) and androsta-1, 4-dien-3, 17-dione (ADD) concentration increased linearly with the progress of microbial transformation and reached almost 6 g/L at the 11th day. This is a paradigm for microbial transformation of crystal substrates as well as in the presence of other surface active additives (such as chitosan and nonionic surfactants) in bacterial cell-stabilized Pickering emulsions. KEY POINTS: • Microbial transformation of crystal phytosterols in Pickering emulsions • Crystal substrate inhibition occurring during microbial transformation • Interaction between phytosterol crystals and bacterial cells leading to demulsification.

Abstract
Biomaterials engineering and biotechnology have advanced significantly towards probiotic encapsulation with encouraging results in assuring sufficient bioactivity. However, some major challenges remain to be addressed, and these include maintaining stability in different compartments of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), favoring adhesion only at the site of action, and increasing residence times. An alternative to addressing such challenges is to manufacture encapsulates with stimuli-responsive polymers, such that controlled release is achievable by incorporating moieties that respond to chemical and physical stimuli present along the GIT. This review highlights, therefore, such emerging delivery matrices going from a comprehensive description of addressable stimuli in each GIT compartment to novel synthesis and functionalization techniques to currently employed materials used for probiotic’s encapsulation and achieving multi-modal delivery and multi-stimuli responses. Next, we explored the routes for encapsulates design to enhance their performance in terms of degradation kinetics, adsorption, and mucus and gut microbiome interactions. Finally, we present the clinical perspectives of implementing novel probiotics and the challenges to assure scalability and cost-effectiveness, prerequisites for an eventual niche market penetration.

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

Abstract
Probiotics are live microorganisms that confer health benefits to host organisms when consumed in adequate amounts and are often incorporated into foods for human consumption. However, this has negative implications on their viability as large numbers of these beneficial bacteria are deactivated when subjected to harsh conditions during processing, storage, and passage through the gastrointestinal tract. To address these issues, numerous studies on encapsulation techniques to protect probiotics have been conducted. This review focuses on emulsion technology for probiotic encapsulation, with a special focus on Pickering emulsions. Pickering emulsions are stabilized by solid particles, which adsorb strongly onto the liquid-liquid interfaces to prevent aggregation. Pickering emulsions have demonstrated enhanced stability, high encapsulation efficiency, and cost-effectiveness compared to other encapsulation techniques. Additionally, Pickering emulsions are regarded as safe and biocompatible and utilize natural materials, such as cellulose and chitosan derived from plants, shellfish, and fungi, which may also be viewed as more acceptable in food systems than common synthetic and natural molecular surfactants. This article reviews the current status of Pickering emulsion use for probiotic delivery and explores the potential of this technique for application in other fields, such as livestock farming, pet food, and aquaculture. Probiotics play an important role in maintaining the health of humans and animals. Encapsulation improves probiotic viability in harsh environments. Probiotics can be encapsulated by many techniques such as emulsification. Pickering emulsions use particles instead of molecules to stabilize emulsions. Natural particles are more acceptable to some consumers than synthetic emulsifiers.

Abstract
Pectin is widely distributed in plant cell wall, most of which have limited emulsifying properties. Ethanol could alter the solubility of pectin, and affect its emulsifying properties. No creaming and breaking of emulsion appeared in 21% (v/v) ethanol contained emulsion. This project investigated the influence of ethanol (0%-35%, v/v) on conformation and emulsifying properties of pectin. Results shown that ethanol could reduce the helix conformation and zeta potential of pectin chain, which leading to compact conformation and enhanced interaction among pectin molecules. Although emulsion droplet diameter increased with ethanol content, the most stable emulsion was found in 21% (v/v) ethanol. CLSM also indicated over-aggregated pectin have a poor adsorption capacity on the interface of O/W. All results manifested the emulsifying properties of pectin can be improved by 21% (v/v) ethanol. This study provides a new strategy to improve the emulsifying property of pectin by changing its conformation.
