Abstract
In recent years, small and ultra-small angle scattering techniques, collectively known as small angle scattering (SAS) have been used to study various food structures during the digestion process. These techniques play an important role in structural characterisation due to the non-destructive nature (especially when using neutrons), various in situ capabilities and a large length scale (of 1 nm to ∼20 μm) they cover. The application of these techniques in the structural characterisation of dairy products has expanded significantly in recent years. Casein, a major dairy protein, forms the basis of a wide range of gel structures at different length scales. These gel structures have been extensively researched utilising scattering techniques to obtain structural information at the nano and micron scale that complements electron and confocal microscopy. Especially, neutrons have provided opportunity to study these gels in their natural environment by using various in situ options. One such example is understanding changes in casein gel structures during digestion in the gastrointestinal tract, which is essential for designing personalised food structures for a wide range of food-related diseases and improve health outcomes. In this review, we present an overview of casein gels investigated using small angle and ultra-small angle scattering techniques. We also reviewed their digestion using newly built setups recently employed in various research. To gain a greater understanding of micro and nano-scale structural changes during digestion, such as the effect of digestive juices and mechanical breakdown on structure, new setups for semi-solid food materials are needed to be optimised.

Solubilization of free β-sitosterol in milk sphingomyelin and polar lipid vesicles as carriers: Structural characterization of the membranes and sphingosome morphology. Food Res Int 2023; 165:112496. [PMID: 36869506 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
High consumption of plant sterols reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases in humans and provides health benefits. Increasing the amount of plant sterols in the diet is therefore necessary to reach the recommended daily dietary intake. However, food supplementation with free plant sterols is challenging because of their low solubility in fats and water. The objectives of this study were to investigate the capacity of milk-sphingomyelin (milk-SM) and milk polar lipids to solubilise β-sitosterol molecules in bilayer membranes organised as vesicles called sphingosomes. The thermal and structural properties of milk-SM containing bilayers composed of various amounts of β-sitosterol were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and temperature-controlled X-ray diffraction (XRD), the molecular interactions were studied using the Langmuir film technique, the morphologies of sphingosomes and β-sitosterol crystals were observed by microscopy. We showed that the milk-SM bilayers devoid of β-sitosterol exhibited a gel to fluid Lα phase transition for Tm = 34.5 °C and formed facetted spherical sphingosomes below Tm. The solubilisation of β-sitosterol within milk-SM bilayers induced a liquid-ordered Lo phaseabove 25 %mol (1.7 %wt) β-sitosterol and a softening of the membranes leading to the formation of elongated sphingosomes. Attractive molecular interactions revealed a condensing effect of β-sitosterol on milk-SM Langmuir monolayers. Above 40 %mol (25.7 %wt) β-sitosterol, partitioning occured with the formation of β-sitosterol microcrystals in the aqueous phase. Similar results were obtained with the solubilization of β-sitosterol within milk polar lipid vesicles. For the first time, this study highlighted the efficient solubilization of free β-sitosterol within milk-SM based vesicles, which opens new market opportunities for the formulation of functional foods enriched in non-crystalline free plant sterols.

Abstract
Sucrose palmitate (P170) and sucrose laurate (L195) were used as emulsifiers to control the crystallization behavior of AMF and to stabilize W/O emulsions. In this study, the P170 promoted crystallization and led to strong fat crystal networks with smaller AMF crystals (60-80 μm) in emulsions, retaining flocculation. Water droplets were squeezed into irregular shapes between the strong network but the P170 formed an interface layer with better strength to resist the aggregation. Contrarily, the L195 inhibited crystallization and formed larger AMF spherulites (more than 100 μm) resulting in a low strength of fat crystal networks and unstable emulsions. Meanwhile, the water droplets were easily fixed on the surface of AMF crystals because of the existence of sucrose esters. Protruding crystals on the surface of larger spherulites could pierce the water-oil interface, leading to a greater coalescence and forming larger water droplets. Therefore, a weak crystal network could not prevent the sedimentation and phase separation caused by gravity.

Abstract
Recently, Pickering emulsions stabilized by edible particles have attracted significant attention from the scientific community and food industry owing to their surfactant-free character. However, those edible particles are mostly used for stabilizing oil-in-water emulsions, whereas those for water-in-oil emulsions are very limited. In this article, stable water-in-oil Pickering emulsions were prepared through dispersing phytosterol particles in oil phase, and the effects of antisolvent treatment, the type of oil, particle concentration, and water fraction on the stability, type, and morphology of these emulsions were investigated. In addition, the release profile of salt as a model aqueous compound from these emulsions has also been studied. Results showed that due to its higher water content, the antisolvent pretreatment of phytosterol in the ethanol/water system facilitated the dispersion of dried phytosterol particles into oil phase as microcrystals. Water-in-oil Pickering emulsions with droplet sizes of 80-100 μm were fabricated at phytosterol concentrations of 1.5-3% w/v and water fractions of 0.2-0.6. The dissolved phytosterol molecules in oil phase could help in emulsion stabilization through interfacial crystallization during emulsification, evidenced by polar microscopic observations. Moreover, the salt release from phytosterol-stabilized Pickering emulsions showed a temperature-dependent profile which could have potential application in a controlled-release system. The current study provided important information for fabrication of stable water-in-oil emulsion using natural particles.

Abstract
Phytosterols are natural plant-based bioactive compounds that can lower blood cholesterol levels and help prevent cardiovascular diseases. Consequently, they are being utilized in functional foods, supplements, and pharmaceutical products designed to improve human health. This paper summarizes different approaches to isolate, purify, and characterize phytosterols. It also discusses the hypolipidemic mechanisms of phytosterols and their impact on cholesterol transportation. Phytosterols have a low water-solubility, poor chemical stability, and limited bioavailability, which limits their utilization and efficacy in functional foods. Strategies are therefore being developed to overcome these shortcomings. Colloidal delivery systems, such as emulsions, oleogels, liposomes, and nanoparticles, have been shown to be effective at improving the water-dispersibility, stability, and bioavailability of phytosterols. These delivery systems can be used to incorporate phytosterols into a broader range of cholesterol-lowering functional foods and beverages. We also discuses several issues that need to be addressed before these phytosterol delivery systems can find widespread commercial utilization.

Abstract
The crystallisation behaviour of milk fat plays an important role in the functionality and sensory properties of fat-rich dairy products. In this study, we investigated the impact of tempering to 25 °C on the viscoelastic properties, particle size and thermal behaviour of 20% w/w unprocessed and homogenised creams prepared from bovine milk. The crystallisation properties were examined by synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) at small (SAXS) and wide angle (WAXS) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Oscillation rheology was performed to characterise the cream's viscoelastic properties. Homogenisation (35 MPa) reduced the average droplet size from 4.4 to 1.3 µm. After 24 h storage at 4 °C, milk fat structures showed triacylglycerol (TAG) 2L and 3L(001, 002, 003, 005) lamellar stacking orders associated predominantly with the α and β' polymorphic forms. Tempering to 25 °C induced the complete melting of the 3L crystals and led to an irreversible loss in the elastic modulus (G') and a reduction in the viscous modulus (G'') once returned to refrigerated conditions, due to changes in the particle-particle interactions and structure of the reformed milk fat crystals. The results demonstrate that crystallisation behaviour of milk fat is influenced by droplet size and the rearrangement of triacylglycerol (TAG) upon tempering, and lead to changes in the viscoelastic behaviour of dairy products containing a high level of milk fat.

Abstract
Lipid crystallization in O/W emulsions is essential to control the release of nutrients and to food structuring. While few information is involved in adjusting and controlling the performance of emulsions by adjusting oil phase crystallization behavior. We herein developed a novel strategy for designing lipid crystallization inside oil droplets by natural waxes to modify the O/W emulsion properties. Natural waxes, the bio-based and sustainable materials, displayed a high efficiency in modifying the crystallization behavior, droplet surface and shape, as well as the overall performance of emulsions. Specifically, waxes induced the formation of a new hydrocarbon chain distances of 3.70 and 4.15 Å and slightly decreased the lamellar distance (d001) of the single crystallites, thus forming the large and rigid crystals in droplets. Interestingly, these large and rigid crystals in droplets tended to penetrate the interface film, forming the crystal bumps on the droplet surface and facilitating non-spherical shape transformation. The presence of rice bran wax (RW) and carnauba wax (CW) induced the droplet shape into ellipsoid and polyhedron shape, respectively. Furthermore, the uneven interface and non-spherical shape transformation promoted the crystalline droplet-droplet interaction, fabricating a three-dimensional network structure in O/W emulsions. Finally, both linear and nonlinear rheology strongly supported that waxes enhanced the crystalline droplet-droplet interaction and strengthened the network in O/W emulsions. Our findings give a clear insight into the effects of adding natural waxes into oil phase on the crystalline and physical behavior of emulsions, which provides a direction for the design and control of emulsion performance.

Abstract
Droplet size, polydispersity, physical and polymorphic stability of milk fat nanoemulsions produced by hot high-pressure homogenization and stabilized by whey protein isolate (WPI pH 4.0 or 7.0) or sodium caseinate (NaCas pH 7.0) were evaluated for 60 days of storage at 25 °C. Smaller droplets were observed for the NaCas pH 7.0 nanoemulsion, which also showed a lower polydispersity index, resulting in a stable emulsified system for 60 days. On the other hand, the nanoemulsion with bigger droplet size (WPI pH 4.0) showed reduced stability, probably due to the pH near the isoelectric point of the whey proteins. The nanostructured milk fat exhibited the same melting behavior as the bulk milk fat, with a balance between liquid and crystallized fat, and crystals in polymorphic form β'. This could be an advantage concerning the application of the system for delivery of bioactive compounds and improvement of the sensory properties of fat-based food. In summary, nanoemulsions stabilized by NaCas (pH 7.0) showed higher kinetic stability over the storage time, which from a technological application point of view is a very important factor in the food industry.

Abstract
Milk fat is a high-value milk component that is processed mainly as butter, cheese, cream and whole milk powder. It is projected that approximately 35 million tonnes of milk fat will be produced globally by 2025. This surplus, enhances the need for diversification of milk fat products and the milk pool in general. Infant milk formula producers, for instance, have incorporated enzyme modified ("humanised") milk fat and fat globule phospholipids to better mimic human milk fat structures. Minor components like mono- and di-glycerides from milk fat are increasingly utilized as emulsifiers, replacing palm esters in premium-priced food products. This review examines the chemistry of milk fat and the technologies employed for its modification, fractionation and enrichment. Emerging processing technologies such as ultrasound, high pressure processing, supercritical fluid extraction and fractionation, can be employed to improve the nutritional and functional attributes of milk fat. The potential of recent developments in biological intervention, through dietary manipulation of milk fatty acid profiles in cattle also offers significant promise. Finally, this review provides evidence to help redress the imbalance in reported associations between milk fat consumption and human health, and elucidates the health benefits associated with consumption of milk fat and dairy products.

Abstract
Phytosterols are natural health-promoting bioactive compounds; however, phytosterols have very limited bioavailability due to their crystalline lipophilic structure. With the aim of improving bioaccessibility, low-crystallinity phytosterol nanoparticles were generated by supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2 ) impregnation of phytosterols into nanoporous starch aerogels (NSAs). The in vitro bioaccessibility of the phytosterol nanoparticles (35%) was significantly higher than that of the crude phytosterols (3%) after sequential oral, gastric, and intestinal digestion. The percentages of starch hydrolysis were not different among the various NSA preparations and reached to 64% after sequential digestion. The zeta potential of the phytosterol nanoparticles was higher compared to that of crude phytosterols in the micellar phase; indicating higher stability. The findings of this study support the use of NSA to produce nanoparticles of reduced crystallinity to improve the bioaccessibility of the lipophilic bioactive compounds. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: This novel process can decrease the size and crystallinity of phytosterols and thus improve phytosterols' bioavailability. It is a blueprint to apply to other water insoluble food bioactives. This novel approach may (i) improve the health benefits of water-insoluble bioactives; (ii) enable food manufacturers to add water-insoluble bioactives into low- and high-fat foods to produce health-promoting foods; and (iii) enhance the cost-benefit ratio of water insoluble bioactives.

Abstract
The crystallization of oil droplets is critical in the processing and storage of lipid-based food and pharmaceutical products. Arrays of femtoliter droplets on a surface offer a unique opportunity to study surfactant-free colloidlike systems. In this work, the crystal growth process in these confined droplets was followed by cooling a model lipid (trimyristin) from a liquid state utilizing synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The measurements by SAXS demonstrated a reduced crystallization rate and a greater degree of supercooling required to trigger lipid crystallization in droplets compared to those of bulk lipids. These results suggest that surface droplets crystallize in a stochastic manner. Interestingly, the crystallization rate is slower for larger femtoliter droplets, which may be explained by the onset of crystallization from the three-phase contact line. The larger surface nanodroplets exhibit a smaller ratio of droplet volume to the length of three-phase contact line and hence a slower crystallization rate.

Abstract
Burst drug release is often considered a negative phenomenon resulting in unexpected toxicity or tissue irritation. Optimal release of a highly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) from hypromellose (HPMC) matrices is technologically impossible; therefore, a combination of polymers is required for burst effect reduction. Promising variant could be seen in combination of HPMC and insoluble Eudragits® as water dispersions. These can be applied only on API/insoluble filler mixture as over-wetting prevention. The main hurdle is a limited water absorption capacity (WAC) of filler. Therefore, the object of this study was to investigate the dissolution behavior of levetiracetam from HPMC/Eudragit®NE matrices using magnesium aluminometasilicate (Neusilin® US2) as filler with excellent WAC. Part of this study was also to assess influence of thermal treatment on quality parameters of matrices. The use of Neusilin® allowed the application of Eudragit® dispersion to API/Neusilin® mixture in one step during high-shear wet granulation. HPMC was added extragranularly. Obtained matrices were investigated for qualitative characteristics, NMR solid-state spectroscopy (ssNMR), gel layer dynamic parameters, SEM, and principal component analysis (PCA). Decrease in burst effect (max. of 33.6%) and dissolution rate, increase in fitting to zero-order kinetics, and paradoxical reduction in gel layer thickness were observed with rising Eudragit® NE concentration. The explanation was done by ssNMR, which clearly showed a significant reduction of the API particle size (150-500 nm) in granules as effect of surfactant present in dispersion in dependence on Eudragit®NE amount. This change in API particle size resulted in a significantly larger interface between these two entities. Based on ANOVA and PCA, thermal treatment was not revealed as a useful procedure for this system.

Abstract
Monoglycerides (MGs) and phytosterols (PS) are known to form firm oleogels with liquid oil. However, the oleogels are prone to undergo polymorphic transition over time that lead to crystals' aggregation thus, compromises physical properties. Thus, we combined MGs with PS to control the crystallization and modify the morphology of the combination oleogels, as both components are reported to interact together. The oleogels were prepared at different ratio combinations and characterized in their rheological, thermal, morphology, and diffraction properties. The results showed that the 8:2 MGP:PS exhibited higher storage modulus (G') than the MGP mono-component. The combination oleogels exhibited effects on the crystallization and polymorphic transition. Consequently, the effects led to change in the morphology of the combination oleogels which was visualized using optical and electron microscope. The resultant effect on the morphology is associated with crystal defect. Due to observable crystals of MGP and PS, it is speculated that the combination oleogels formed a mixed crystal system. This was confirmed with diffraction analysis in which the corresponding peaks from MGP and PS were observed in the combination oleogels. However, the 8:2 oleogel exhibited additional peak at 35.41Å. Ultimately, the 8:2 was the optimum combination observed in our study. Interestingly, this combination is inspired by nature as sterols (phytosterols) are natural component of lipid membrane whilst MGP has properties similar to phospholipids. Hence, the results of our study not only beneficial for oil structuring, but also for the fields of biophysical and pharmaceutical.
