Ramezani M, Martín-Belloso O, Salvia-Trujillo L. Influence of oleogel composition on lipid digestibility and β-carotene bioaccessibility during in vitro digestion. Food Chem 2024; 456:139978.

Abstract
This study explored how co-oleogelator type, concentration, and water addition affect lipid digestion and β-carotene (βC) bioaccessibility in corn oil oleogels. Oleogels containing 0.1% βC, 20% glyceryl stearate (GS), with lecithin (L) or hydrogenated lecithin (HL) (at 0, 0.5, or 2.5%) and their water-filled counterparts (1% water) were examined. In vitro intestinal digestion revealed HL-oleogels experienced higher lipolysis due to their smaller crystal size enhancing surface area for lipase action, whereas L-oleogels presented lower digestibility, attributed to larger oil droplets and a minimized surface area. Water addition didn't significantly change lipid digestibility. βC bioaccessibility was inversely related to co-oleogelator concentration, with L-oleogels demonstrating the largest decrease, likely due to less free fatty acids released for micelle formation. However, water-filled oleogels enhanced βC bioaccessibility. These findings highlight that tailored microstructure in oleogels can control lipid digestion and βC bioaccessibility, paving the way for designing efficient delivery systems for targeted nutrient delivery.

Fabrication, characterization, and oxidation resistance of gelatin/egg white protein cryogel-templated oleogels through apple polyphenol crosslinking. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 277:134077. [PMID: 39053829 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134077] [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: 04/16/2024] [Revised: 06/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
Cryogel-templated oleogels (CTO) were fabricated via a facile polyphenol crosslinking strategy, where apple polyphenol was utilized to crosslink the gelatin/egg white protein conjugates without forming hydrogels. After freeze-drying, cryogel templates were obtained and used to construct CTO by oil absorption. Apple polyphenol crosslinking improved the emulsion-related properties with appearance changes on samples, and infrared spectroscopy further confirmed the interactions between proteins and apple polyphenol. The crosslinked cryogels presented porous microstructures (porosity of over 96 %), enhanced thermal/mechanical stabilities, and could absorb a high content of oil (14.41 g/g) with a considerable oil holding capacity (90.98 %). Apple polyphenol crosslinking also influenced the rheological performances of CTO, where the highly crosslinked samples owned the best thixotropic recovery of 85.88 %. Moreover, after the rapid oxidation of oleogels, the generation of oxidation products was effectively inhibited by crosslinking (POV: 0.48 nmol/g, and TBARS: 0.53 mg/L). The polyphenol crosslinking strategy successfully involved egg white protein and gelatin to fabricate CTO with desired physical/chemical properties. Apple polyphenol acted as both a crosslinker and an antioxidant, which provided a good reference for fabricating pure protein-based CTO.

Comprehensive review on the potential of ultrasound for blue food protein extraction, modification and impact on bioactive properties. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 111:107087.

Abstract
Food security for the increasing global population is a significant challenge of the current times particularly highlighting the protein deficiencies. Plant-based proteins could be considered as alternate source of the protein. The digestibility and PDCASS value of these proteins are still a concern. Blue proteins, the new approach of utilizing the proteins from aquatic sources could be a possible solution as it contains all the essential amino acids. However, the conjugation of these proteins with fats and glycogen interferes with their techno-functional properties and consequently their applicability. The application of power ultrasound for extraction and modification of these proteins from aquatic sources to break open the cellular structure, increase extractability, alter the protein structure and consequently provide proteins with higher bioavailability and bioactive properties could be a potential approach for their effective utilization into food systems. The current review focuses on the application of power ultrasound when applied as extraction treatment, alters the sulphite and peptide bond and modifies protein to elevated digestibility. The degree of alteration is influenced by intensity, frequency, and exposure time. The extracted proteins will serve as a source of essential amino acids. Furthermore, modification will lead to the development of bioactive peptides with different functional applications. Numerous studies reveal that blue proteins have beneficial impacts on amino acid availability, and subsequently food security with higher PDCAAS values. In many cases, converted peptides give anti-hypertensive, anti-diabetic, and anti-oxidant activity. Therefore, researchers are concentrating on ultrasound-based extraction, modification, and application in food and pharmaceutical systems.

Abstract
The study aimed to develop a novel eutecto-oleogel and its characterizations. Using starch, beeswax, oil, and natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES), an oleogel with low hardness and high liquid fat was developed. The addition of starch and NADES in oleogels caused the formation of new intra or intermolecular hydrogen bonding and improved the oil binding capacity, thermal behavior, and texture of the oleogels. The oleogel with 1 % starch formed a strong gel with the most favorable functional, textural, flow properties and a high fanning factor. Complementary tests of the oleogel exhibited shear thinning and frequency-independent behavior, with zero residual effect. Non-isothermal crystallization and melting analysis of the oleogels showed noticeable differences among the various oleogels. These results contribute to a better understanding of oleo gelation in rice bran oil-based oleogels with NADES, and beeswax for formulating food, pharmaceutical, and personal care products with desired physical properties.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to determine how various amounts (0.00, 0.58, 1.52 and 4.50 g 100 g-1) of wine lees (WL), which contains numerous essential components, impact the emulsifying properties of fish gelatin (FG) at a low concentration (0.5 g 100 g-1) in the high-fat phase (65 g 100 g-1). This study conducted rheology, physicochemical technical and characterization analyses on the emulsions to provide sustainable and innovative approaches for spreadable oils. RESULTS The addition of WL to FG emulsions improved oxidative stability, emulsion stability and bioactive compounds. The zeta potential (-101 ± 5.62 mV) of 0.58 g 100 g-1 WL-containing emulsion (PE1) was found to be high, whereas particle size (347.6 ± 5.25 nm) and polydispersity index (0.50) were statistically low. It was also found that the addition of WL improved the intermolecular interactions, crystallinity and microstructural properties of the emulsions. All these results were supported by simulating the molecular configuration between FG and WL. The compounds gallic acid, caffeic acid, myricetin, quercetin and resveratrol showed a strong affinity to FG, with free binding energies of -5.50, -5.88, -6.53, -6.68 and -6.66 kcal mol-1, respectively. CONCLUSION As a result, WL-supported FG has the potential to be used as an alternative to egg proteins to develop sustainable low-cost spreadable emulsions. © 2024 The Authors.

Abstract
In response to the growing demand for healthier food options, this review explores advances in oleogel systems as an innovative solution to reduce saturated fats in chocolates. Although appreciated for its flavor and texture, chocolate is high in calories, mainly due to cocoa butter (CB), which is rich in saturated fats. Oleogels, three-dimensional structures formed by structuring agents in edible oils, stand out in terms of mimicking saturated fats' physical and sensory properties without compromising the quality of chocolate. This study reviews how oleogels could improve chocolate's stability and sensory quality, exploring the potential of pectin-rich agro-industrial by-products as sustainable alternatives. It also explores the need for physicochemical evaluations of both oleogel and oleogel-based chocolate.

Mechanical properties of wax-oleogels: Assessing their potential to mimic commercial margarine functionality under small and large deformations. Food Res Int 2024; 189:114579.

Abstract
Utilizing waxes to gel oils presents a viable approach for diminishing trans and saturated fat levels in commercial fats such as margarines. This technique ensures that oleogels mimic traditional fats in terms of rheological properties, oil-binding capacity, and overall structure. Our study employed cooling-shear rates to finely adjust physical characteristics, evaluating rheology via SAOS-LAOS, oil retention, and crystal structure of wax oleogels, compared against commercial margarines as benchmarks. Findings indicate that wax oleogels, under specific cooling/shear conditions, exhibit softer yet more ductile-like behavior, akin to margarine, while retaining oil effectively. This similarity is evidenced through Lissajous curves and plastic dissipation ratio during yielding, reflecting a ductile yielding response characterized by square-like Lissajous curves and a plastic dissipation ratio index approximating one. Although these crystallization conditions influence the mechanical properties of wax oleogels, they do not alter oil losses or wax characteristics.

Abstract
In this study, three types of β-sitosterol-based oleogels (β-sitosterol + γ-oryzanol oleogels, β-sitosterol + lecithin, oleogels and β-sitosterol + monostearate oleogels), loaded with astaxanthin, were employed as the oil phase to create oleogel-based emulsions (SO, SL, and SM) using high-pressure homogenization. The microstructure revealed that fine-scale crystals were dispersed within the oil phase of the droplets in the β-sitosterol oleogel-based emulsion. The bioaccessibility of astaxanthin was found to be 58.13 %, 51.24 %, 36.57 %, and 45.72 % for SM, SL, SO, and the control group, respectively. Interestingly, the release of fatty acids was positively correlated with the availability of astaxanthin (P = 0.981). Further analysis of FFAs release and kinetics indicated that the structural strength of the oil-phase in the emulsions influenced the degree and rate of lipolysis. Additionally, the micellar fraction analysis suggested that the nature and composition of the oleogelators in SM and SL also impacted lipolysis and the bioaccessibility of astaxanthin. Furthermore, interfacial binding of lipase and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) measurements revealed that the oleogel network within the oil phase of the emulsion acted as a physical barrier, hindering the interaction between lipase and lipid. Overall, β-sitosterol oleogel-based emulsions offer a versatile platform for delivering hydrophobic molecules, enhancing the bioavailability of active compounds, and achieving sustained release.

Abstract
In this study, a methodology for synthesizing oleogels based on linseed oil and emulsifiers, such as beeswax and Tween 20 and Tween 80, was developed. Linseed oil served as the main oil phase, while beeswax acted as a gelling and emulsifying agent. Tween compounds are non-ionic surfactants composed of hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts, allowing for the formation of a stable system with promising properties. Surface wetting analysis of the obtained oleogels, FT-IR spectroscopy, and determination of relative and absolute humidity over time, as well as optical microscope analysis and rheological analysis of the obtained oleogels, were conducted as part of the research. The results indicate that increasing the amount of Tween 20 decreases the hydrophilicity of the oleogel, while Tween 80 exhibits the opposite effect. Surface energy analysis suggests that a higher content of Tween 20 may lead to a reduction in the surface energy of the oleogels, which may indicate greater material stability. Changes in relative humidity and FT-IR spectral analysis confirm the influence of emulsifiers on the presence of characteristic functional groups in the structure of the oleogels. Additionally, microscopic analysis suggests that an emulsifier with a longer hydrophobic tail leads to a denser material structure.

In most cases, the unused by-products of venison, including deer tallow, are disposed of in rendering plants. Deer tallow contains essential fatty acids and can be used to prepare products for everyday food and advanced applications. This work aimed to process deer tallow into hydrolyzed products using microbial lipases. A Taguchi design with three process factors at three levels was used to optimize the processing: amount of water (8, 16, 24%), amount of enzyme (2, 4, 6%), and reaction time (2, 4, 6 h). The conversion of the tallow to hydrolyzed products was expressed by the degree of hydrolysis. The oxidative stability of the prepared products was determined by the peroxide value and the free fatty acids by the acid value; further, color change, textural properties (hardness, spreadability, stickiness, and adhesiveness), and changes at the molecular level were observed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The degree of hydrolysis was 11.8-49.6%; the peroxide value ranged from 12.3 to 29.5 µval/g, and the color change of the samples expressed by the change in the total color difference (∆E*) was 1.9-13.5. The conditions of enzymatic hydrolysis strongly influenced the textural properties: hardness 25-50 N, spreadability 20-40 N/s, and stickiness < 0.06 N. FTIR showed that there are changes at the molecular level manifested by a decrease in ester bonds. Enzymatically hydrolyzed deer tallow is suitable for preparing cosmetics and pharmaceutical matrices.

Abstract
Solid fats contribute to a delicate and pleasant flavor for food, but its excessive intake increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Bigel is considered a promising solid fat substitute as it significantly reduces fat content while meeting consumer demands for food flavor and a balanced diet. In this study, bigels were prepared by mixing glyceryl monolaurate-based oleogel (10 wt%) and gellan gum-based hydrogel (0.8 wt%) at ratios of 1:3, 1:1, and 3:1. The microscopic results indicated that the oleogel/hydrogel ratios influenced the structure of bigels, forming oil-in-water, bi-continuous, and water-in-oil bigels with the increase of oleogel proportion, respectively. All bigels presented a semi-solid structure dominated by elasticity, and their hardness, gumminess, chewiness, and cohesiveness increased with the enhancement of hydrogel proportion. Among them, the bigels (S25:L75 and S25:H75) prepared with an oleogel/hydrogel ratio of 1:3 showed excellent freeze-thaw stability, maintaining an oil holding capacity of >95 % after three freeze-thaw cycles. Meanwhile, they also presented good oxidative stabilities, where the peroxide values and malondialdehyde contents were below 0.07 g/100 g and 1.5 mg MDA/kg at 12 d, respectively. Therefore, S25:L75 and S25:H75 are expected to be green, low-cost, healthy, and sustainable alternatives to solid fats.

Abstract
The utilization of natural waxes to form oleogels has emerged as a new and efficient technique for structuring liquid edible oil into solid-like structures for diverse food applications. The objective of this study was to investigate the interaction between sunflower wax (SW) and monoglycerides (MGs) in olive oil oleogels and assess their physical characteristics and storage stability. To achieve this, pure SW and a combination of SW with MGs in a 1:1 ratio were examined within a total concentration range of 6-12% w/w. The formed oleogels were characterized based on their microstructure, melting and crystallization properties, textural characteristics, and oxidative stability during storage. All the oleogels were self-standing, and, as the concentration increased, the hardness of the oleogels also increased. The crystals of SW oleogels were long needle-like, while the combination of SW and MGs led to the formation of crystal aggregates and rosette-like crystals. Differential scanning calorimetry and FTIR showed that the addition of MGs led to different crystal structures. The oxidation results revealed that oleogels had low peroxide and TBARS values throughout the 28-day storage period. These results provide useful insights about the utilization of SW and MGs oleogels for potential applications in the food industry.

Abstract
This study aims to develop oleogel as a potential substitute for solid fats in the diet. A novel combination of unmodified Soy Protein Isolate (SPI) and Xanthan Gum (XG) have been utilized to gelate sunflower oil, using an emulsion template approach. The experimental trials employing Response Surface Methodology are conducted to optimize various parameters that affect the oil binding capacity, textural and rheological properties of the oleogel. The concentration of soy protein varies in the range of 5-15 %, the ratio of soy protein to xanthan gum ranges from 1:2 to 1:4, and the ionic strength varies from 0.2 to 1 M. The goal is to formulate oleogel that closely resembles solid fats. Responses namely the oil binding capacity and gel strength value of oleogel were observed best fitted to a linear model whereas, the hardness of oleogel found following a quadratic model. The SPI-XG combination was found effective in entraping more than 95 % of the oil. The best formulation of SPI: XG, 1:4; SPI concentration, 15 % and ionic strength of 1.0 M with 95.5 % of oil retention and hardness and gel strength value comparable to commercial solid fats.

Abstract
Beeswax oleogels (OGs), with a mechanical strength similar to pork backfat, were formulated with avocado (A), sunflower (S), and linseed (L) oils, applying a central composite design plus star point, and were evaluated as oral delivery vehicles of curcuminoids (OGACur, OGSCur, OGLCur). The incorporation of curcumin into the OG matrix significantly delayed both the formation of peroxides and conjugated trienes (K268 values), and the degradation rate of curcumin decreased with the increase of the oil polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) content. The oil structuring did not affect the bioaccessibility of curcuminoids (>55% in all the OGs, regardless of the oil type), but it did reduce the release of fatty acids (~10%) during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. The intestinal absorption, evaluated in Caco-2 cell monolayers, was higher for the micelle-solubilized curcumin from the digested OG than from unstructured oils, and it showed high anti-inflammatory potential by inhibiting the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) production compared to the positive control, both before and after the stimulation of ThP-1 cells with LPS. Regardless of the oil type, these beeswax-based OGs with gel-like behavior designed as fat replacers may be promising vehicles for the oral delivery of curcuminoids.

Abstract
This study aims to assess the impact of heat treatment on the emulsifying properties of lentil protein isolate (LPI) dispersion to produce high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs). The heat-treated LPI dispersion was characterized by size, turbidity, solubility, zeta potential, free sulfhydryl group, electrophoresis, differential scanning calorimetry, circular dichroism, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy and intrinsic fluorescence. HIPEs were produced with 25% of LPI dispersion (2%, w/w) and soybean oil (75%) using a rotor-stator (15,500 rpm/1 min). HIPEs were evaluated for their droplet size, zeta potential, centrifugal stability, microscopy, appearance, Turbiscan stability, and rheology over 60 days (25 °C). Heat treatment reduced the size of LPI, resulting in increased turbidity, solubility, and exposure of hydrophobic groups. HIPEs produced with heat-treated LPI at 70 °C (HIPE70) and 80 °C (HIPE80) for 20 min exhibited lower droplet sizes, increased stability, reduced oil loss, and a homogeneous appearance compared to HIPE produced with untreated LPI (HIPEc). In addition, HIPE70 and HIPE80 displayed resistance to shear stress, higher apparent viscosity, and increased storage modulus than HIPEc. HIPEs produced with heat-treated LPI were stable, suggesting that the treatment was efficient for improving the functional properties of the protein and the possibility of future research focusing on fat substitutes in food applications.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based oleogels and emulsion gels have become novel strategies to replace solid fats due to safe and plentiful raw material, healthier fatty acid composition, controllable viscoelasticity, and more varied nutrition/flavor embedding. Recently, various oleogelation techniques and novel emulsion gels have been reported further to enrich the potential of polysaccharides in oil structuring, in which a crucial step is to promote the formation of polysaccharide networks determining gel properties through different media. Meanwhile, polysaccharide-based oleogels and emulsion gels have good oil holding, nutrient/flavor embedding, and 3D food printability, and their applications as fat substitutes have been explored in foods. This paper comprehensively reviews the types, preparation methods, and mechanisms of various polysaccharide-based oleogels and emulsion gels; meanwhile, the food applications and new trends of polysaccharide-based gels are discussed. Moreover, some viewpoints about potential developments and application challenges of polysaccharide-based gels are mentioned. In the future, polysaccharide-based gels may be flexible materials for customized nutritional foods and molecular gastronomy. However, it is still a challenge to select the appropriate oleogels or emulsion gels to meet the requirements of the products. Once this issue is addressed, oleogels and emulsion gels are anticipated to be used widely.

Abstract
Fats contribute majorly to food flavour, mouthfeel, palatability, texture, and aroma. Though solid fats are used for food formulation due to the processing benefits over oils, their negative health effects should not be overlooked. Oleogelation is thus used to transform liquid oil into a gel which function like fats and provide the nutritional benefits of oils. Additionally, only food-grade gelators convert the oils into solid-like, self-standing, three-dimensional gel networks. Rice bran wax, candelilla wax, carnauba wax, and sunflower wax are mainly used plant waxes for formulating oleogels as a result of their low cost, availability, and excellent gelling ability. A comprehensive information about the wax based oleogels, their characteristics and applications is needed. The present review discusses the effect of different plant-based waxes on the properties of the oleogel formed. The article provides information on how the physical and chemical properties of waxes impact the oleogel properties such as oil binding capacity, critical concentration, rheological, thermal, textural, morphological, and oxidative stability. Moreover, the current and potential applications of oleogels in the food sector have also been covered this article.

Heliyon 2023; 9:e21500. [PMID: 38027829 PMCID: PMC10660127 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e21500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose This review aims to examine the potential of oleogels as a frying medium to decrease oil absorption during deep-frying and enhance the nutritional and energy content of foods. By investigating the factors influencing oil incorporation during deep-frying and examining the application of oleogels in this process, we seek to provide insights into using oleogels as an alternative to traditional cooking oils. Scope Deep-frying, a widely used cooking method, leads to the retention of large amounts of oil in fried food, which has been associated with health concerns. To address this issue, researchers have investigated various methods to minimize oil absorption during frying. One promising approach is the use of oleogels, which are thermo-reversible, three-dimensional gel networks formed by entrapment of bulk oil with a low concentration (<10% of weight) of solid lipid materials known as oleogelators. This review will focus on the following aspects: a) an overview of deep-fried foods, b) factors influencing oil uptake and underlying mechanisms for oil absorption during deep-frying, c) the characterization and application of different frying oils and their oleogels in deep-fried foods, d) components of the oleogel system for deep-frying, and e) the health impact, oxidative stability, and sensory acceptability of using oleogels in deep-frying. Key findings The review highlights the potential of oleogels as a promising alternative frying medium to reduce fat absorption in deep-fried foods. Considering the factors influencing oil uptake during deep-frying, as well as exploring the properties and applications of different frying oils and their oleogels, can result in improved product qualities and heightened consumer acceptance. Moreover, oleogels offer the advantage of lower fat content in fried products, addressing health concerns associated with traditional deep-frying methods. The capacity to enhance the nutritional and energy profile of foods while preserving sensory qualities and oxidative stability positions oleogels as a promising choice for upcoming food processing applications.

Carbohydr Polym 2023; 315:120971.

Abstract
In this study, chitosan-gelatin conjugates were prepared by chemical crosslinking of tannic acid. The cryogel templates were developed through freeze-drying and immersed in camellia oil to construct cryogel-templated oleogels. Chemical crosslinking resulted in apparent colour changes and improved emulsion-related/rheological properties on conjugates. The cryogel templates with different formulas exhibited different microstructures with high porosities (over 96 %), and crosslinked samples might have higher hydrogen bonding strength. Tannic acid crosslinking also led to enhanced thermal stabilities and mechanical properties. Cryogel templates could reach a considerable oil absorption capacity of up to 29.26 g/g and prevent oil from leaking effectively. The obtained oleogels with high tannic acid content possessed outstanding antioxidant abilities. After 8 days of rapid oxidation at 40 °C, Oleogels with a high degree of crosslinking owned the lowest POV and TBARS values (39.74 nmol/kg, and 24.40 μg/g, respectively). This study indicates that the involvement of chemical crosslinking would favor the preparation and the application potential of cryogel-templated oleogels, and the tannic acid in the composite biopolymer systems could act as both the crosslinking agent and the antioxidant.

Analysis of Nutritional Characteristics and Willingness to Pay of Consumers for Dry-Cured Sausages ( Salchichón) Made with Textured Seed Oils. Foods 2023; 12:3118. [PMID: 37628117 PMCID: PMC10453616 DOI: 10.3390/foods12163118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/19/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The consumption of processed meat products beyond recommended limits has been associated with serious health conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. In an effort to create healthier options, the meat industry is exploring alternatives to animal fat in processed meats. This study focuses on replacing animal fat in dry-cured sausages (Salchichón) with textured chia, poppy, melon, and pumpkin oils. The research aims to evaluate the physical and nutritional changes resulting from this substitution and assess consumer acceptance through sensory analysis. The use of seed oils led to slight color changes and comparable texture, except for cohesiveness. The incorporation of textured seed oils resulted in reduced fat content, increased proportions of ashes and protein, and decreased energy value. The fatty acid composition showed lower proportions of saturated fatty acids and increased polyunsaturated fatty acids. Sensory analysis revealed that the control sample with pork fat received the highest ratings for appearance, texture, and taste, while samples with higher seed oil percentages scored lower due to color, cohesiveness, and specific flavors from the seed oils. Despite these variations, consumers demonstrated a high level of acceptability for all samples. Choice analysis results indicated that higher prices had a negative impact on consumer willingness to purchase, while the use of the 100% Iberian pig breed and animal welfare labels positively influenced purchasing attitudes. Regarding the presence of a pumpkin seed oil label in the product, a negative willingness to pay was reported. However, significant individual variation was reported for this attribute, indicating the existence of consumer segments with more positive attitudes toward these innovative dry-cured sausages.

Abstract
The combined interactions between ethylcellulose (EC) and natural waxes to structure edible oil are underexplored. To reduce the high EC concentration required to form a functional oleogel, novel oleogels were prepared using a 50% critical concentration of EC (i.e., 4%) with 1-4% beeswax (BW) and carnauba wax (CRW). One percent wax was sufficient for EC to form self-sustaining oleogel. Rheological analysis demonstrated that 4%EC + 4%BW/CRW had comparable oleogel properties to 8%EC. The yield stress and flow point of wax oleogels were enhanced upon EC addition. EC did not influence the thermal behaviour of the wax component of the oleogel, but the crystallinity and plasticity of the combined oleogel increased. The crystal shape of BW oleogel changed upon EC addition from a needle-like to spherulitic shape. Confocal laser scanning microscopy highlighted the uniform distribution of EC polymeric network and wax crystals. EC/wax mixtures have promising oil-structuring abilities that have the potential to use as solid fat substitutes.

Impact of Fat Replacement by Using Organic-Candelilla-Wax-Based Oleogels on the Physicochemical and Sensorial Properties of a Model Cookie. Gels 2023; 9:636.

Abstract
Oleogelation is an alternative process to improve the nutritional properties of food by creating soft-matter structures with the same functionality as commercial fats (shortenings). In this study, oleogels were produced by adding organic candelilla wax at 3% (OC03), 6% (OC06), and 9% (OC09) to extra-virgin linseed oil, and then characterized by their physicochemical properties. Furthermore, the physicochemical and sensorial properties of five cookie formulations were evaluated. Organic candelilla wax influenced the oleogel formulations, giving higher values of color (L* and b*), texture, acidity index, and melting point. In the cookie formulations, the luminosity values decreased when the percentage of oleogel was increased; reddish trends were obtained (a* values) for the cookie where 70% of the fat was replaced by the oleogel (C70), and more yellow trends were obtained (b* values) for C100. The moisture content was higher in cookies with oleogels, but it was within quality limits. The percentage of fat migration was lower in cookies with a mixture of fats and oleogels. In terms of hardness, the substitution of oleogels resulted in softer cookies. In terms of the sensory evaluation, the most accepted cookie was C70. Therefore, this study demonstrates the possibility of using organic-candelilla-wax-based oleogels in a real food model rich in unsaturated fats.

Abstract
The application of hydrophilic compounds in lipid systems was limited due to their poor solubility. In this study, antioxidant-fortified oleogels containing hydrophilic antioxidants tea polyphenols (TP) were developed. The hydrophilic TP was encapsulated in glyceryl monostearate (GMS) to form TP gelling agents, which successfully made TP uniformly dispersed in oleogels. The lipophilic curcumin was directly dissolved in soybean oil to distribute in oleogels. Oxidative stability experiments showed that the addition of TP greatly improve the oxidative stability of oleogels. Compared to curcumin, TP played a particularly stronger antioxidant effect, indicating that hydrophilic antioxidants had promising applications in oleogels. In addition, the synergistic value was calculated to confirm that there was a certain synergistic effect between these two antioxidants. This study initiated a method to uniformly disperse hydrophilic antioxidants in oleogels, providing an effective solution for the construction of lipid products loaded with hydrophilic bioactive ingredients.

Abstract
Novel thermoresponsive emulsion gels and oleogels were fabricated by assembling nanofibrous from natural triterpenoid Quillaja saponin (QS) and glycyrrhizic acid (GA). The viscoelasticity of QS-coated emulsion was observed to be remarkably improved by GA and thus obtain the advantages of excellent gelatinous, thermoresponsive and reversible manner due to the viscoelastic texture from GA nanofibrous as scaffolds in continuous phase. In the gelled emulsions, the phase transition of the GA fibrosis network structure upon heating and cooling was attributed to a thermal sensitivity, whereas interface-induced fibrosis assembly of amphiphilic QS endowed the formation of stable emulsion droplets. Then these emulsion gels were further used as an effective template to fabricate soft-solid oleogels with high oil content of 96%. These findings open up new opportunities for the use of all-natural and sustainable ingredients to develop smart soft materials for replace trans and saturated fats in food industry and other fields.

Abstract
This study examined how the self-assembly mechanisms of β-sitosterol-based oleogels influenced the release of volatile compounds. Microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements showed that the three β-sitosterol-based oleogels (β-sitosterol + γ-oryzanol oleogels (SO), β-sitosterol + lecithin oleogels (SL) and β-sitosterol + monostearate oleogels (SM)) had significant differences in their microstructures, which were formed via different self-assembly mechanisms. SO exhibited the highest oil binding capacity (OBC), complex modulus (G*) and apparent viscosity. Dynamic and static headspace analyses suggested that network structure of β-sitosterol-based oleogels affected the release of volatile components. SO showed the strongest retention effect, followed by SL and SM. The release of volatile compounds mainly related to structural strength and compositions of oleogels. These results indicated that β-sitosterol-based oleogels formed with different self-assembly mechanisms have the potential to serve as effective delivery systems for controlling the release of volatile compounds.

Abstract
The natural properties of oils and fats do not always allow for their direct use in industry (e.g., for food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals). Furthermore, such raw materials are often too expensive. Nowadays, the requirements for the quality and safety of fat products are increasing. For this reason, oils and fats are subjected to various modifications that make it possible to obtain a product with the desired characteristics and good quality that meets the needs of product buyers and technologists. The modification techniques of oils and fats change their physical (e.g., raise the melting point) and chemical properties (e.g., fatty acid composition). Conventional fat modification methods (hydrogenation, fractionation, and chemical interesterification) do not always meet the expectations of consumers, nutritionists, and technologists. In particular, Hydrogenation, while it allows us to obtain delicious products from the point of view of technology, is criticised for nutritional reasons. During the partial hydrogenation process, trans-isomers (TFA), dangerous for health, are formed. One of the modifications that meets current environmental requirements and trends in product safety and sustainable production is the enzymatic interesterification of fats. The unquestionable advantages of this process are the wide spectrum of possibilities for designing the product and its functional properties. After the interesterification process, the biologically active fatty acids in the fatty raw materials remain intact. However, this method is associated with high production costs. Oleogelation is a novel method of structuring liquid oils with small oil-gelling substances (even 1%). Based on the type of oleogelator, the methods of preparation can differ. Most oleogels of low molecular weight (waxes, monoglycerides, and sterols) and ethyl cellulose are prepared by dispersion in heated oil, while oleogels of high molecular weight require dehydration of the emulsion system or solvent exchange. This technique does not change the chemical composition of the oils, which allows them to keep their nutritional value. The properties of oleogels can be designed according to technological needs. Therefore, oleogelation is a future-proof solution that can reduce the consumption of TFA and saturated fatty acids while enriching the diet with unsaturated fatty acids. Oleogels can be named "fats of the future" as a new and healthy alternative for partially hydrogenated fats in foods.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to characterize the gelling effect of beeswax (BW) using different types of cold pressed oil. The organogels were produced by hot mixing sunflower oil, olive oil, walnut oil, grape seed oil and hemp seed oil with 3%, 7% and 11% beeswax. Characterization of the oleogels was done using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the chemical and physical properties of the oleogels were determined, the oil binding capacity was estimated and the SEM morphology was studied. The color differences were highlighted by the CIE Lab color scale for evaluating the psychometric index of brightness (L*), components a and b. Beeswax showed excellent gelling capacity at 3% (w/w) of 99.73% for grape seed oil and a minimum capacity of 64.34%for hemp seed oil. The value of the peroxide index is strongly correlated with the oleogelator concentration. Scanning electron microscopy described the morphology of the oleogels in the form of overlapping structures of platelets similar in structure, but dependent on the percentage of oleogelator added. The use in the food industry of oleogels from cold-pressed vegetable oils with white beeswax is conditioned by the ability to imitate the properties of conventional fats.

Abstract
Foods undergo various physical and chemical reactions during cooking. Boiling, steaming, baking, smoking and frying are common traditional cooking techniques. At present, new cooking technologies including ultrasonic-assisted cooking, vacuum low-temperature cooking, vacuum frying, microwave heating, infrared heating, ohmic heating and air frying are widely studied and used. In cooking, lipid oxidation is the main reason for the change in lipid quality. Oxidative decomposition, triglyceride monomer oxidation, hydrolysis, isomerization, cyclization reaction and polymerization occurred in lipid oxidation affect lipids' quality, flavor, digestibility and safety. Meanwhile, lipid oxidation in cooking might cause the decline of lipid digestibility and increase of health risks. Compared with the traditional cooking technology, the new cooking technology that is milder, more uniform and faster can reduce the loss of lipid nutrition and produce a better flavor. In the future, the combination of various cooking technologies is an effective strategy for families to obtain healthier food.

Abstract
Fats and oils in food give them flavor and texture while promoting satiety. Despite the recommendation to consume predominantly unsaturated lipid sources, its liquid behavior at room temperature makes many industrial applications impossible. Oleogel is a relatively new technology applied as a total or partial replacement for conventional fats directly related to cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and inflammatory processes. Some of the complications in developing oleogels for the food industry are finding structuring agents Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS), viable economically, and that do not compromise the oleogel palatability; thus, many studies have shown the different possibilities of applications of oleogel in food products. This review presents applied oleogels in foods and recent proposals to circumvent some disadvantages, as reaching consumer demand for healthier products using an easy-to-use and low-cost material can be intriguing for the food industry.

Abstract
Food products contain important quantities of fats, which include saturated and/or unsaturated fatty acids. Because of a proven relationship between saturated fat consumption and the appearance of several diseases, an actual trend is to eliminate them from foodstuffs by finding solutions for integrating other healthier fats with high stability and solid-like structure. Polyunsaturated vegetable oils are healthier for the human diet, but their liquid consistency can lead to a weak texture or oil drain if directly introduced into foods during technological processes. Lately, the use of oleogels that are obtained through the solidification of liquid oils by using edible oleogelators, showed encouraging results as fat replacers in several types of foods. In particular, for meat products, studies regarding successful oleogel integration in burgers, meat batters, pâtés, frankfurters, fermented and bologna sausages have been noted, in order to improve their nutritional profile and make them healthier by substituting for animal fats. The present review aims to summarize the newest trends regarding the use of oleogels in meat products. However, further research on the compatibility between different oil-oleogelator formulations and meat product components is needed, as it is extremely important to obtain appropriate compositions with adequate behavior under the processing conditions.

Abstract
Recently, interest and demand for healthy and useful food products have become a global requirement. Thus, the production of functional foods with high polyunsaturated fatty acids and antioxidants is very challenging. In this study, four functional spreadable oleogels based on canola oil and milk proteins were developed. These spreadable oleogels were used as an innovative model for the preparation of candy gummies. The chemical composition, oxidative stability, and effects of storage conditions were studied. The results showed that the fat content in spreadable oleogels and gummies ranged from 35 to 47 and 2.40–4.15%, respectively. The protein content in spreadable doum and carrot was 7.41%, while it was 6.15% in the spreadable plain and ranged from 10.25 to 12.78% in gummies. The hardness of spreadable oleogels and gummies ranged from 0.3 to 0.9 and 6.22–16.30 N, respectively. Spreadable carrot and spreadable doum had peroxide values greater than 8 meqO2/kg after storage, whereas spreadable plain and spreadable canola oleogel had better oxidative stability. The antioxidant activity of spreadable oleogels and gummies ranged from 66.98–46.83% to 51.44–40.37%, respectively. In addition, transmission electron microscopy and polarized light microscopy micrographs showed the presence of a coherent entangled network between oleogels and nutritional polymers. The oil binding capacity of spreadable carrot oleogel had a maximum value of 97.89%, while formed gummies were higher than 99%. This study showed a promising way to make functional spreadable oleogels as a model for food products that are good for health and nutrition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phytosterols are considered to be one of the most promising gelators for obtaining oleogel because of their additional health benefits and natural coexist with vegetable oils. Previous studies have confirmed that individual phytosterols are not capable of structuring vegetable oils unless they act synergistically with other components. However, based on the self-assembly properties of stigmasterol (ST) in organic solvents, we speculate that it can also structure vegetable oils as a gelator alone. RESULTS For the first time, the present study confirmed the feasibility of using ST alone as a gelator for structuring of vegetable oils, including rapeseed oil (RSO), olive oil (OLO) and flaxseed oil (FSO). RSO had the lowest ST gelation concentration (4%, w/w), and the oil-binding capacity and firmness value of the oleogels were the highest. The rheological results showed that all the samples were gelatinous (G' > G″). The results of differential scanning calorimeter and X-ray diffraction further confirmed that the properties of RSO-based oleogels are superior to those prepared by OLO and FSO. The microscopic results also confirmed that the crystal structure of RSO oleogels was more uniform, smaller and more densely distributed. CONCLUSION The structural properties of the oleogels were positively correlated with the ST concentration, and various analysis indicators showed that the performance of the oleogel based on RSO was better than that of OLO and FSO. In summary, the present study used ST as a gelator to successfully prepare oleogels with excellent properties, which provides a feasible reference for researchers in related fields. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Oleogels are becoming an attractive research field, since they have recently been shown to be feasible for the food and pharmaceutical sectors and provided some insights into the biomedical area. In this work, edible oleogels were tailored through the combination of ethylcellulose (EC), a gelling agent, with virgin coconut oil (VCO), vegetable oil derived from coconut. The influence of the different EC and VCO ratios on the structural, physical, and thermal properties of the oleogels was studied. All EC/VCO-based oleogels presented a stable network with a viscoelastic nature, adequate structural stability, modulable stiffness, high oil-binding capability, antioxidant activity, and good thermal stability, evidencing the EC and VCO’s good compatibility.

Abstract
The main advantage of both 3D printing (3DP) and 3D food printing (3DFP) over other technologies is the enormous capacity of both techniques for customization. Its use makes it possible to obtain products without planning and implementing a complex and costly manufacturing process. This makes 3DFP a technology of choice for the preparation of food products that meet specific needs, such as controlled nutritional or rheological properties. However, further technological developments are still needed before 3DFP can be considered fully useful for innovative and demanding applications. If both preparation and post-processing of materials based on 3D printing are optimized, aiming to reduce production time and/or complication for non-expert users, this would open a whole new range of possibilities. It is in this sense that the development of advanced 3DFP systems becomes a must. This chapter reviews current advances in extrusion-based 3D food printing systems, with in situ gelation and mixing as key aspects to better exploit the potential of 3DFP. On one hand, 3DFP systems based on in situ gelation (G3DFP) provide greater control over the final properties of the printed products, as the selection of adequate printing parameters gives the possibility of influencing the gelation process. On the other hand, mixing is indispensable for true 3DFP automation, so that the formulations do not have to be prepared by the user. Different innovative 3DFP systems based on gelling and/or mixing are presented in this chapter. Finally, the status and future of extrusion-based 3DFP, and its application in the production of customized foods for specific needs, are also overviewed.

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

Abstract
Curcumin-nanostructured lipid carrier-loaded oleogels (Cur-NLC-OGs) have been developed with biopolymer cryogels as an efficient delivery system to overcome the extremely low water solubility and instability of curcumin. The effect of NLC and biopolymer types on the encapsulation and release of curcumin from Cur-OGs was investigated. Alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and pectin solutions were firstly freeze dried to make biopolymer cryogels and they were mixed with Cur and Cur-NLC to obtain stable and self-standing Cur-OGs and Cur-NLC-OGs, respectively. As compared to Cur-OGs, Cur-NLC-OGs had higher encapsulation efficiency and showed slower release of curcumin under acidic condition. Although Cur-NLC affected the rapid release of free fatty acids, the Cur-NLC-OGs prepared with CMC cryogel was most efficient in delaying lipid digestion. Overall, NLC and CMC-based OGs could be effectively used to improve encapsulation efficiency and control lipolysis of lipid droplets. These results will be advantageous for the development of oleogels with desirable functionality.
