Wang Y, Liu B, Ma Y, Wang C, Ma H, Geng S. Oil/water interface behavior of hesperidin methylchalcone and its application in nano-emulsions. Food Chem 2024; 463:141235. [PMID: 39276552 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.141235] [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: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 09/01/2024] [Accepted: 09/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/17/2024]
Abstract
The behavior of hesperidin methylchalcone (HMC) at the oil/water interface was examined through experimental and molecular simulation methods, and a nano-emulsions based on HMC was subsequently fabricated. The findings indicated that HMC spontaneously aggregated at the oil-water interface, leading to a reduction in interfacial tension and an increase in interfacial thickness. Furthermore, its glycoside and benzene ring showed tendencies to interact with water and medium-chain triglyceride, respectively. The HMC addition amount (w), homogenization times (n) and homogenization pressure (p) significantly influenced the formation of the nano-emulsions. The nano-emulsion with an oil-droplet size of 277.26 ± 13.62 nm was obtained at w = 1.0 %, p = 200 bar, and n = 6. When compared to the Tween 20 nano-emulsion, the HMC nano-emulsion demonstrated superior storage stability, antioxidant activity, and lutein bioaccessibility. It could achieve the slow release of HMC. These findings not only broaden the application range of HMC but also contribute to the advancement of functional nano-emulsions.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 270:132388. [PMID: 38754685 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132388] [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: 02/23/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024]
Abstract
Cyclodextrin-based electrospun nanofibers are promising for encapsulating and preserving unstable compounds, but quick dissolution of certain nanofibers hinders their delivery application. In this study, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) was used as an effective carrier of resveratrol (RSV) to obtain the RSV/HPβCD inclusion complex (HPIC), which was then incorporated into pullulan nanofibers. For enhancement of RSV release toward colon target, multilayer structure with a pullulan/HPIC film sandwiched between two layers of hydrophobic Eudragit S100 (ES100) nanofibers was employed. The relationship between the superiority of the ES100-pullulan/HPIC-ES100 film and its multilayer structure was verified. The intimate interactions of hydrogen bonds between two adjacent layers enhanced thermal stability, and the hydrophobic outer layers improved water contact resistance. According to release results, multilayer films also showed excellent colon-targeted delivery property and approximately 78.58 % of RSV was observed to release in colon stage. In terms of release mechanism, complex mechanism best described RSV colonic release. Additionally, ES100-pullulan/HPIC-ES100 multilayer films performed higher encapsulation efficiency when compared to the structures without HPIC, which further increased the antioxidant activity and total release amount of RSV. These results suggest a promising strategy for designing safe colonic delivery systems based on multilayer and HPIC structures with superior preservation for RSV.

Abstract
The structure and functional properties of okra seed protein (OSP) were characterized, the ultrasonic homogenization process of OSP nano-emulsion was optimized by response surface methodology (RSM), and its stability was also evaluated in this study. The results suggested that OSP was a high-quality plant protein, rich in glutamic acid. The molecular weight of its main subunits distributed in the range of 10-55 kDa, and some subunits were connected by disulfide bonds. Although the water and oil holding capacities of OSP were inferior to those of soy protein isolate (SPI), its emulsifying ability was superior to that of SPI. And the OSP concentration, ultrasonic time and ultrasonic power had obvious effects on the droplet size of nanoemulsion. The optimum process of OSP emulsion was determined as follows: OSP concentration 2.4 %, ultrasonic power 600 W, ultrasonic time 340 s. Under these conditions, the median droplet size of the nanoemulsion was 192.03 ± 3.48 nm, close to the predicted value (191.195 nm). And the obtained nano-emulsion exhibited high stability to the changes of pH, temperature and ionic strength in the environment. Our results can provide reference for the application of OSP, and promote the development of plant protein-based nanoemulsions.

Abstract
The polysaccharides in honeysuckle leaves (PHL) were separated and characterized for the first time. The nano-emulsion stabilized by PHL and whey protein isolate (WPI) were also fabricated based on the ultrasonic method. The results indicated that PHL was mainly composed of glucose (47.40 mol%), galactose (19.21 mol%) and arabinose (20.21 mol%) with the weight-average molecular weight of 137.97 ± 4.31 kDa. The emulsifier concentration, WPI-to-PHL ratio, ultrasound power and ultrasound time had significant influence on the droplet size of PHL-WPI nano-emulsion. The optimal preparation conditions were determined as following: emulsifier concentration, 1.7%; WPI/PHL ratio, 3:1; ultrasonic power, 700 W; ultrasonic time, 7 min. Under the above conditions, the median diameter of the obtained nano-emulsion was 317.70 ± 5.26 nm, close to the predicted value of 320.20 nm. The protective effect of PHL-WPI emulsion on β-carotene against UV irradiation was superior to that of WPI emulsion. Our results can provide reference for the development of honeysuckle leaves.

Abstract
With dihydromyricetin (DMY)/high-amylose corn starch (HCS) composite particles as the emulsifier, Pickering nano-emulsions were fabricated by combining high-speed shearing and high-pressure homogenization. The effect of particle properties and processing conditions on the formation and physicochemical properties of the Pickering nano-emulsions was then investigated systematically. The results showed that the DMY content of the composite particles, the oil phase volume fraction of the emulsion, and the homogenization conditions had obvious effects on the droplet size of the emulsion, where appropriate DMY content in the composite particles (5-20%) contributed to the formation of stable Pickering nano-emulsions. The oil phase of the obtained emulsions exhibited good stability during high-temperature storage, and their β-carotene protecting performance against UV irradiation was superior to the emulsion stabilized by Tween 20. The in vitro simulated digestion analysis indicated that the nano-emulsions developed by the composite particles could enhance the bioaccessibility of β-carotene and inhibit starch hydrolysis.

Abstract
This study aimed to improve the effectiveness of Thymus capitatus and Thymus algeriensis essential oils (EOs), as food preservatives, through their encapsulation in different delivery systems (DSs), namely nanoemulsions and biopolymeric nanoparticles. DSs’ preparation is tailored to enhance not only physical stability but also resulting Eos’ antioxidant and antibacterial activities through different fabrication methods (high-pressure homogenization emulsification or antisolvent precipitation) and using different emulsifiers and stabilizers. DSs are characterized in terms of droplet size distribution, ζ-potential, and stability over time, as well as antioxidant and antibacterial activities of encapsulated EOs. The antioxidant activity was studied by the FRAP assay; the antibacterial activity was evaluated by the well diffusion method. EOs of different compositions were tested, namely two EOs extracted from Thymus capitatus, harvested from Tunisia during different periods of the year (TC1 and TC2), and one EO extracted from Thymus algeriensis (TA). The composition of TC1 was significantly richer in carvacrol than TC2 and TA. The most stable formulation was the zein-based nanoparticles prepared with TC1 and stabilized with maltodextrins, which exhibit droplet size, polydispersity index, ζ-potential, and encapsulation efficiency of 74.7 nm, 0.14, 38.7 mV, and 99.66%, respectively. This formulation led also to an improvement in the resulting antioxidant (60.69 µg/mg vs. 57.67 µg/mg for non-encapsulated TC1) and antibacterial (inhibition diameters varying between 12 and 33 mm vs. a range between 12 and 28 mm for non-encapsulated TC1) activities of EO. This formulation offers a promising option for the effective use of natural antibacterial bioactive molecules in the food industry against pathogenic and spoilage bacteria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nanoemulsions (NEs) have been explored as nanocarriers for the delivery of many drugs and cosmeceuticals. The extraordinary expansion of using NEs is due to their capability to conquer the main challenges of conventional delivery systems such as short residence time with low patient acceptance, poor stability, low aqueous solubility, permeability, and hence bioavailability. METHODS This review recapitulated the most recent pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical applications of NEs as effective delivery nanocarriers. The outputs of our research studies and the literature review on the latest NEs applications were assessed to highlight the NEs components, preparations, applications, and the improved quality and elegance of the used product. RESULTS NEs are stable submicronic translucent dispersions with narrow droplet size distribution. They exhibited excellent ability to efficiently encapsulate therapeutics of diverse nature of drugs and cosmeceuticals. NE formulations showed superiority over conventional delivery approaches with overabundances of advantages through different routes of administration. This novel technology exhibited better aesthetic appeal, higher bioavailability, and a longer duration compared to the conventional delivery systems. CONCLUSION This novel technology holds promise for different therapeutics fields. However, the success of NEs use advocated the development of robust formulations, proper choice of equipment, ample process characterization, and assurance of their efficacy, stability, safety and cosmetic appeal.

Abstract
Aging is spontaneous and inevitable process in all living beings. It is a complex natural phenomenon that manifests as a gradual decline of physiological functions and homeostasis. Aging inevitably leads to age-associated injuries, diseases, and eventually death. The research on aging-associated diseases aimed at delaying, preventing or even reversing the aging process are of great significance for healthy aging and also for scientific progress. Numerous plant-derived compounds have anti-aging effects, but their therapeutic potential is limited due to their short shelf-life and low bioavailability. As the novel delivery system, nanoemulsion can effectively improve this defect. Nanoemulsions enhance the delivery of drugs to the target site, maintain the plasma concentration for a longer period, and minimize adverse reaction and side effects. This review describes the importance of nanoemulsions for the delivery of phyto-derived compounds and highlights the importance of nanoemulsions in the treatment of aging-related diseases. It also covers the methods of preparation, fate and safety of nanoemulsions, which will provide valuable information for the development of new strategies in treatment of aging-related diseases.

Abstract
Diacylglycerol (DAG) is commonly used as fat substitute in food manufacture due to its functional properties, but DAG has poor emulsification and oxidation stability, which limits its wide application in food industry. In this work, fluorescence quenching data and thermodynamic parameters were analyzed to investigate the interaction mechanism between l-theanine (L-Th) and β-lactoglobulin (β-LG). DAG emulsion was prepared by using β-lactoglobulin-theanine (β-LG-Th) as surface stabilizer, and its emulsification and oxidation stability were evaluated. The results showed that the hydrophobic interaction played an important role on the conjugate of β-LG and L-Th due to the negative values for ΔG, positive values for ΔH and ΔS at pH 4.0, pH 6.0 and pH 8.0. The DAG has been better embedded by using β-LG-Th as surface stabilizer, and the droplet size was about 0.2 µm to 1.5 µm when the pH was 6.0, the ratio of L-Th to β-LG was 1:1. β-LG-Th as surface stabilizer for DAG can increase the ζ-potential and emulsion index, make the emulsion droplet size distribution more uniform. The l-theanine was better to be used to improve the emulsification stability and antioxidant capacity of DAG by binding β-LG as surface stabilizer.

Comparison of binary cress seed mucilage (CSM)/β-lactoglobulin (BLG) and ternary CSG-BLG-Ca (calcium) complexes as emulsifiers: Interfacial behavior and freeze-thawing stability. Carbohydr Polym 2021; 266:118148.

Abstract
Protein-polysaccharide complexes often exhibit amended techno-functional characteristics when compared to their individual participant biomolecules. In this study, a complex coacervation of cress seed mucilage (CSM)/β-lactoglobulin (Blg) was used for stabilizing oil-in-water emulsions; they were characterized in terms of physical properties, droplet-size distribution and microstructure. Also, a comprehensive study was carried out on interfacial rheological responses and on the corresponding emulsion stability of different complexes. Freeze-thaw stability of the produced emulsions which had from mixtures of CSM-Blg was also evaluated. More than the size of droplets, interfacial rheological characteristics were associated with the properties of the adsorbed layers and with the stability of emulsions in storage. Using the CSM-Blg-Ca ultimately resulted in emulsions that proved stable against creaming, with no sign of phase separation over 3 weeks. These results show protein-polysaccharide complexes as appropriate emulsifiers that can make emulsion-based products resistant to unwanted changes caused by freeze-thawing.

Abstract
Nanostructured emulsions have a significant potential for encasing, transport and delivery of hydrophilic and lipophilic nutraceuticals and other bioactive compounds by providing enhanced stability and functionality in food and pharmaceutical applications. As highlighted in recent researches, essential fatty acids (EFA) and oils (EO), antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, pro and prebiotics, and co-enzymes, are common bioactives encapsulated in nanoscale delivery systems in order to protect them from degradation during processing and storage, and to improve bioavailability after their consumption. Nanoemulsions (NEs) as delivery systems for nutraceuticals comprise either oil-in-water (O/W) or water-in-oil (W/O) biphasic dispersion with nano-sized droplets, which are stabilized through an active surfactant. Both high- and low- energy methods are used to produce well-structured and stable NEs with advanced structural and rheological features. The in vitro and in vivo studies are focused to assess the nutraceutical releasing profile, gastrointestinal transportation and cytotoxicity of nutraceutical loaded NE. Within the last three decades, a number of NE systems have been developed for certain purposes and submitted for patent approval. Currently, there are many issued patents published as well as and applications under process. This review focus on the current status of food-grade NEs in terms of formation, characterization, relevant applications of nutraceutical delivery, and the recent developments including patented systems.

Abstract
Lipid nanoemulsions (NEs), owing to their controllable size (20 to 500 nm), stability and biocompatibility, are now frequently used in various fields, such as food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, drug delivery, and even as nanoreactors for chemical synthesis. Moreover, being composed of components generally recognized as safe (GRAS), they can be considered as "green" nanoparticles that mimic closely lipoproteins and intracellular lipid droplets. Therefore, they attracted attention as carriers of drugs and fluorescent dyes for both bioimaging and studying the fate of nanoemulsions in cells and small animals. In this review, the composition of dye-loaded NEs, methods for their preparation, and emerging biological applications are described. The design of bright fluorescent NEs with high dye loading and minimal aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) is focused on. Common issues including dye leakage and NEs stability are discussed, highlighting advanced techniques for their characterization, such as Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS). Attempts to functionalize NEs surface are also discussed. Thereafter, biological applications for bioimaging and single-particle tracking in cells and small animals as well as biomedical applications for photodynamic therapy are described. Finally, challenges and future perspectives of fluorescent NEs are discussed.

Int J Pharm 2020; 592:120039.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare two types of emulsification techniques in a solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS); high-pressure homogenisation (HPH) and Shirasu porous glass membrane (SPG). Those two emulsification processes enhanced the solubility, dissolution and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble sildenafil base (SB) by producing fine and well-dispersed nanoemulsion droplet. The liquid SNEDDS consisting of Labrasol/Transcutol HP/coconut oil at the weight of 72/18/10, gave the smallest emulsion droplet size among the prepared liquid SNEDDS formulations. Then, the SB-loaded liquid SNEDDS was dissolved in the deionised water and applied to HPH or SPG techniques. Aerosil 200 was suspended as a mesoporous carrier and spray-dried, producing an SB-loaded solid SNEDDS. The emulsion droplet size, solubility and dissolution of each emulsification process were compared to the solid SNEDDS fabricated without any treatment of additional emulsification. Moreover, the physicochemical properties of all formulations were compared. The crystalline state of the drug in all products was converted to the amorphous state. The solid SNEDDS, subjected to HPH technique, provided fine and well-dispersed nanoemulsion. Additionally, it increasingly improved the drug solubility and dissolution as compared to the others, including SB powder, non-treated (NT) and SPG. Furthermore, it gave improved Cmax and increased AUC compared to SB powder and SPG, indicating HPH enhanced the oral bioavailability of SB the most. Thus, this solid SNEDDS with HPH would be strongly suggested as an oral SB-loaded pharmaceutical product.

Abstract
This work aims to investigate the effect of desolvation on the stability and bioavailability of nanoparticles of β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) and anthocyanins (AC) extracted from red raspberry pomace. Interactions between the substrates were also studied using multispectral approaches. β-Lg-nanoparticles were fabricated via heat treatment at 85 °C for 30 min before initiating the desolvation method at pH 7. This method generated monodisperse particles, nano-scale size of β-Lg, and AC-β-Lg ranged from 129.13 to 351.85 nm with square morphology obtained by SEM. The AC extract was encapsulated successfully during desolvation process into β-Lg-nanoparticles with encapsulation efficiency (EE %) of ~77%. Results also showed that AC (from 1 to 13 × 10-4 M) quenched the fluorescence intensity of de-solvated β-Lg estimated to be 98%, and a binding among them occurred with a Ka-value of 7.59 × 108 M-1 at 25 °C. Addition of AC also gradually increased the antioxidant activity of β-Lg-nanoparticles with values of 82.51% at the highest AC-concentration (13 × 10-4 M) loaded on β-Lg-nanoparticles. AC-loaded β-Lg nanoparticles was more stable in mouth (pH 6.8), simulated gastric (SG, pH 2), and simulated intestinal (SI, pH 6.9) by showing high retention rate (%) than that of AC unencapsulated. Overall, de-solvated-β-Lg increased the heat-stability and bioavailability of AC, which could be further utilized in various food and pharmaceutical matrices. These findings recommend that β-Lg nanoparticles could be appropriated as delivery systems for anthocyanins.

Formulation and Optimization of Nanoemulsions Using the Natural Surfactant Saponin from Quillaja Bark. Molecules 2020; 25:molecules25071538.

Abstract
Replacing synthetic surfactants by natural alternatives when formulating nanoemulsions has gained attention as a sustainable approach. In this context, nanoemulsions based on sweet almond oil and stabilized by saponin from Quillaja bark with glycerol as cosurfactant were prepared by the high-pressure homogenization method. The effects of oil/water (O/W) ratio, total surfactant amount, and saponin/glycerol ratio on their stability were analyzed. The formation and stabilization of the oil-in-water nanoemulsions were analyzed through the evaluation of stability over time, pH, zeta potential, and particle size distribution analysis. Moreover, a design of experiments was performed to assess the most suitable composition based on particle size and stability parameters. The prepared nanoemulsions are, in general, highly stable over time, showing zeta potential values lower than −40 mV, a slight acid behavior due to the character of the components, and particle size (in volume) in the range of 1.1 to 4.3 µm. Response surface methodology revealed that formulations using an O/W ratio of 10/90 and 1.5 wt% surfactant resulted in lower particle sizes and zeta potential, presenting higher stability. The use of glycerol did not positively affect the formulations, which reinforces the suitability of preparing highly stable nanoemulsions based on natural surfactants such as saponins.

Abstract
Nanoemulsions have attracted significant attention in food fields and can increase the functionality of the bioactive compounds contained within them. In this paper, the preparation methods, including low-energy and high-energy methods, were first reviewed. Second, the physical and chemical destabilization mechanisms of nanoemulsions, such as gravitational separation (creaming or sedimentation), flocculation, coalescence, Ostwald ripening, lipid oxidation and so on, were reviewed. Then, the impact of different stabilizers, including emulsifiers, weighting agents, texture modifiers (thickening agents and gelling agents), ripening inhibitors, antioxidants and chelating agents, on the physicochemical stability of nanoemulsions were discussed. Finally, the applications of nanoemulsions for the delivery of functional ingredients, including bioactive lipids, essential oil, flavor compounds, vitamins, phenolic compounds and carotenoids, were summarized. This review can provide some reference for the selection of preparation methods and stabilizers that will improve performance in nanoemulsion-based products and expand their usage.

Abstract
The fabrication of concentrated nanoemulsions provides potential advantages such as loading capacity enhancement, storage and transportation costs reduction, and creation of novel textures. The current study investigated the capability of high power ultrasound on nanoemulsification of high concentration triglyceride using various natural emulsifiers (saponin, whey protein isolate, lecithin and sucrose monopalmitate). The impact of the emulsifier concentration (up to 6 wt%), oil content (up to 60 wt%) and exposure to sonication (up to 33 min) on the droplet size distribution, physical stability and rheological properties were evaluated. Regarding the dilute nanoemulsion (10 wt% oil), droplet size was inversely correlated with the concentration of emulsifiers, however only by using saponin (2 wt%) the droplet size was in nano range (d < 200 nm). The concentrated nanoemulsions (20–50 wt%) were also fabricated under sonication (15 min at saponin-to-oil ratio 2 : 10 w/w%). They also presented shear-thinning behavior with relatively low consistency coefficients. Surprisingly, the one with 60 wt% oil was easily converted to viscoelastic gel upon 3 min sonication. Owing to such characteristics, they could have potential applicability in formulation of soft foods, creams, sauces, salad dressings, pastes, lotions, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The capability of ultrasonication and natural emulsifiers on nano-emulsification and nano-gelation of concentrated triglyceride oil was verified.![]()

Abstract
Red palm oil (RPO) is a natural source of Vitamin E (70–80% tocotrienol). It is a potent natural antioxidant that can be used in skin-care products. Its antioxidant property protects skin from inflammation and aging. In our work, a tocotrienol-rich RPO-based nanoemulsion formulation was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) and formulated using high pressure homogenizer. Effect of the concentration of three independent variables [surfactant (5–15 wt%), co-solvent (10–30 wt%) and homogenization pressure (500–700 bar)] toward two response variables (droplet size, polydispersity index) was studied using central composite design (CCD) coupled to RSM. RSM analysis showed that the experimental data could be fitted into a second-order polynomial model and the coefficients of multiple determination (R2) is 0.9115. The optimized formulation of RPO-based nanoemulsion consisted of 6.09 wt% mixed surfactant [Tween 80/Span 80 (63:37, wt)], 20 wt% glycerol as a co-solvent via homogenization pressure (500 bar). The optimized tocotrienol-rich RPO-based nanoemulsion response values for droplet size and polydispersity index were 119.49nm and 0.286, respectively. The actual values of the formulated nanoemulsion were in good agreement with the predicted values obtained from RSM, thus the optimized compositions have the potential to be used as a nanoemulsion for cosmetic formulations.

Abstract
Sterically stabilized diblock copolymer nanoparticles with an intensity-average diameter of 25 nm are prepared in the form of a concentrated aqueous dispersion using polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA). The addition of n-dodecane followed by high-shear homogenization produces n-dodecane-in-water Pickering macroemulsions of 22-46 μm diameter. If the nanoparticles are present in sufficient excess, then subsequent processing using a high-pressure microfluidizer leads to the formation of Pickering nanoemulsions with a mean oil droplet diameter below 200 nm. The size of these Pickering nanoemulsions can be tuned by systematically varying the nanoparticle concentration, applied pressure, number of passes, and oil volume fraction. High-internal-phase emulsions can also be achieved by increasing the n-dodecane volume fraction up to 0.80. TEM studies of (dried) n-dodecane droplets confirm the presence of intact nanoparticles and suggest a relatively high surface coverage, which is consistent with model packing calculations based on radius ratios. Such Pickering nanoemulsions proved to be surprisingly stable with respect to Ostwald ripening, with no significant change in the mean DLS droplet diameter after storage for approximately 4 months at 20 °C.

Abstract
Quality by design (QbD) has become an inevitable trend because of its benefits for product quality and process understanding. Trials have been conducted using QbD in nanosystems' optimization. This paper reviews the application of QbD for processing nanosystems and summarizes the application procedure. It provides prospective guidelines for future investigations that apply QbD to nanosystem manufacturing processes. Employing the QbD concept in this way is a novel area in nanosystem quality.

Abstract
Nanoemulsions are biphasic dispersion of two immiscible liquids: either water in oil (W/O) or oil in water (O/W) droplets stabilized by an amphiphilic surfactant. These come across as ultrafine dispersions whose differential drug loading; viscoelastic as well as visual properties can cater to a wide range of functionalities including drug delivery. However there is still relatively narrow insight regarding development, manufacturing, fabrication and manipulation of nanoemulsions which primarily stems from the fact that conventional aspects of emulsion formation and stabilization only partially apply to nanoemulsions. This general deficiency sets up the premise for current review. We attempt to explore varying intricacies, excipients, manufacturing techniques and their underlying principles, production conditions, structural dynamics, prevalent destabilization mechanisms, and drug delivery applications of nanoemulsions to spike interest of those contemplating a foray in this field.

Abstract
Consumer concern about human and environmental health is encouraging food manufacturers to use more natural and sustainable food ingredients. In particular, there is interest in replacing synthetic ingredients with natural ones, and in replacing animal-based ingredients with plant-based ones. This article provides a review of the various types of natural emulsifiers with potential application in the food industry, including phospholipids, biosurfactants, proteins, polysaccharides, and natural colloidal particles. Increased utilization of natural emulsifiers in food products may lead to a healthier and more sustainable food supply. However, more research is needed to identify, isolate, and characterize new sources of commercially viable natural emulsifiers suitable for food use.

Abstract
The main aim of the present work was to prepare TPGS stabilized D-α-Tocopherol, lemon oil, tween-80, and water nanoemulsion by low cost and highly effective sonication method. The prepared nanoemulsion showed good stability for 60days at variable temperature conditions i.e. 4, 25 and 37°C. The tolerance of the prepared nanoemulsion to salt (50mM-500mM) and pH (pH 2-pH 7.4) was also studied. The morphology and droplet size of pure and quinine loaded nanoemulsion was characterized with transmission electron microscopy. The prepared formulation was transparent and the obtained average particle size ranged between 25nm and 35nm. The nanoemulsion was found to be non toxic. The cell viability study of pure nanoemulsion carried out on Hep G2 cells revealed that the cell viability was 100%. The formulation further exhibited high quinine loading and release capacity with cumulative release up to 76±2% and 65±2% at pH 7.4 and pH 5.5 respectively. The interaction between quinine and vitamins (riboflavin, thiamine and biotin) was also carried out (aqueous medium). The study revealed that riboflavin had strong interaction with quinine and vitamins vis-à-vis thiamine and biotin.

Abstract
Functional recombinant bovine β-lactoglobulin has been produced by expression in E. coli using an engineered protein gene and purified to homogeneity by applying a new protocol. Mutations L1A/I2S introduced into the protein sequence greatly facilitate in vivo cleavage of the N-terminal methionine, allowing correctly folded and soluble protein suitable for biochemical, biophysical and structural studies to be obtained. The use of gel filtration on Sephadex G75 at the last purification step enables protein without endogenous ligand to be obtained. The physicochemical properties of recombinant β-lactoglobulin such as CD spectra, ligand binding (n, K a, ΔH, TΔS, ΔG), chemical and thermal stability (ΔG D, C mid) and crystal structure confirmed that the protein obtained is almost identical to the natural one. The substitutions of N-terminal residues did not influence the binding properties of the recombinant protein so that the lactoglobulin produced and purified according to our protocol is a good candidate for further engineering and potential use in pharmacology and medicine.
