[PMID: 39111465 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134540] [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: 06/17/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/04/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
Algal proteins are an emerging source of functional foods. Herein, Chlorella pyrenoidosa protein (CPP)/xanthan gum-based hydrogels (HG) and beeswax-gelled oleogels (OG) are adopted to fabricate bigels. The phase inversion of bigels can be regulated by the ratio of OG and HG: As the OG increased, bigels turn from OG-in-HG (OG/HG) to a semicontinuous state and then HG-in-OG (HG/OG). In OG/HG bigels (OG ≤ 50 %), hydrophilic CPP acts as the emulsifier at the interface of OG and HG, while beeswax emulsifies the system in HG/OG bigels (OG = 80 %). A semicontinuous bigel appears during the transition between HG/OG and OG/HG. The increase of OG can enhance the viscoelasticity, hardness, adhesiveness, chewiness, and thermal stability. OG/HG bigels exhibit stronger thixotropic recovery and oil-holding capacity than HG/OG bigels. In the in-vitro digestion and food 3D printing, the high specific surface area and the highest thixotropic recovery caused by the emulsion structure of the OG/HG bigel (OG = 50 %) are conducive to the release of free fatty acids and molding of 3D-printed objects, respectively. This study provides a new approach to structure the gelled water-oil system with CPP and helps to develop edible algal proteins-based multiphase systems in food engineering or pharmacy.

Abstract
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a prominent cause of vision loss among the elderly, and the treatment options for dry AMD (dAMD) are severely limited. Lutein has a favorable effect on the treatment of dAMD. Algae oil, rich in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), is considered an effective intervention for eye diseases. In this study, casein-mannose conjugates were prepared to form algal oil-in-water Pickering emulsions by ultrasound-assisted Maillard reaction. As the ultrasound time increased from 0 to 25 min, the droplet size decreased to 648.2 ± 21.18 nm, which substantially improved the stability of the Pickering emulsions. The retention of lutein in the Pickering emulsions under ultrasonic treatment for 20 min was significantly improved under different conditions. The simulated gastrointestinal digestion revealed that ultrasound-assisted Pickering emulsions are an effective method for improving the bioaccessibility of lutein (19.76%-53.34%). In vivo studies elucidated that the lutein-loaded Pickering emulsions could effectively alleviate retinal thinning induced by sodium iodate (NaIO3) in mice with dAMD. Mechanistically, lutein-loaded Pickering emulsions significantly reduced oxidative stress by decreasing the MDA level, increasing the SOD production, and reducing the retinal ROS production. These findings explored the protective effects of lutein-loaded Pickering emulsions on dAMD and offered promising prospects for the nutritional intervention of dAMD.

Abstract
In this study, a novel one-step coaxial electrospinning process is employed to fabricate shell-core structure fibers choosing Chlorella pyrenoidosa proteins (CP) as the core material. These nanofibers, serving as the wall material for probiotic encapsulation, aimed to enhance the stability and antioxidant activity of probiotics in food processing, storage, and gastrointestinal environments under sensitive conditions. Morphological analysis was used to explore the beads-on-a-string morphology and core-shell structure of the electrospun fibers. Probiotics were successfully encapsulated within the fibers (7.97 log CFU/g), exhibiting a well-oriented structure along the distributed fibers. Compared to free probiotics and uniaxial fibers loaded with probiotics, encapsulation within microalgae proteins/alginate core-shell structure nanofibers significantly enhanced the probiotic cells' tolerance to simulated gastrointestinal conditions (p < 0.05). Thermal analysis indicated that microalgae proteins/alginate core-shell structure nanofibers displayed superior thermal stability compared to uniaxial fibers. The introduction of CP resulted in a 50 % increase in the antioxidant capacity of probiotics-loaded microalgae proteins/alginate nanofibers compared to uniaxial alginate nanofibers, with minimal loss of viability (0.8 log CFU/g) after 28 days of storage at 4 °C. In summary, this dual-layer carrier holds immense potential in probiotic encapsulation and enhancing their resistance to harsh conditions.

Abstract
Starch-based Pickering emulsions exhibit high interfacial stability in a certain range of mild pH environments. On the contrary, many studies have reported that when the pH value is <4, it often leads to different degrees of emulsion instability. In this paper, the microscopic state of starch granules in the emulsion and its effect on the stability of the emulsion were observed and analyzed by atomic force microscope (AFM) in tapping mode. At the same time, Pickering emulsions in acidic environment were prepared by using the gel properties of methyl cellulose (MC) in synergy with esterified high amylose maize starch (M-HAMS) granules. The results show that in the emulsion with pH 3, the excessive H + ion inhibits the swelling of M-HAMS granules and prevents it from forming a stable gel structure, which is the main cause of emulsion instability. The polarity of MC with water contact angle (WCA) of 81.8° is similar to that of M-HAMS granules with WCA of 80.1°, and a uniform and ordered micro-nanostructure is formed in the aqueous phase. The prepared acidic (pH 3-4) emulsion has good stability during the observation period of 30 days.

Abstract
The remarkable performance of fucoxanthin (FX) in antioxidant and weight loss applications has generated considerable interest. However, the application of fucoxanthin in the food and pharmaceutical industries is limited due to its highly unsaturated structure. This research aimed to investigate the synergistic mechanism of a unique Pickering emulsion gel stabilized by salmon byproduct protein (SP)-pectin (PE) aggregates and evaluate its ability to enhance the stability and bioavailability of FX. Various analytical techniques, including fluorescence spectroscopy, contact angle testing, turbidity analysis, and cryo-field scanning electron microscopy, were used to demonstrate that electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions between SP and PE contribute to the exceptional stability and wettability of the Pickering emulsion gels. Rheological analysis revealed that increasing the concentration of SP-PEs resulted in shear-thinning behavior, excellent thixotropic recovery performance, higher viscoelasticity, and good thermal stability of the Pickering emulsion gels stabilized by SP-PEs(SEGs). Furthermore, encapsulation of FX in the gels showed protected release under simulated oral and gastric conditions, with the subsequent controlled release in the intestine. Compared to free FX and the control group without PE (SEG-0), SEG-4 exhibited a 1.92-fold and 1.37-fold increase in the total bioavailable fraction of FX, respectively. Notably, during the study, it was observed that SEGs have the potential to serve as cake decoration for 3D printing to replace traditional cream under lower oil phase conditions (50%). These findings suggest that SP-PEs-stabilized Pickering emulsion gels hold promise as carriers for delivering bioactive compounds, offering the potential for various innovative food applications.

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

Excessive lipid intake is linked to an elevated risk of health problems. However, reducing lipid contents may influence food structure and flavor. Some alternatives are needed to control the lipid absorption. Emulsions are common carriers for lipids, which can control the hydrolysis and absorption of lipids. Chitin (Ch) and chitosan (CS) are natural polysaccharides with good biodegradability, biocompatibility, and unique cationic properties. They have been reported to be able to delay lipolysis, which can be regarded as one of the most promising agents that regulates lipid digestion (LiD). The application of Ch/CS and their derivatives in emulsions are summarized in this review with a focus on their performances and mechanisms for LiD regulation, aiming to provide theoretical guidance for the development of novel Ch/CS emulsions, and the regulation of LiD. A reasonable design of emulsion interface can provide its resistance to the external environment and then control LiD. The properties of emulsion interface are the key factors affecting LiD. Therefore, systematic study on the relationship between Ch/CS-based emulsion structure and LiD can not only instruct the reasonable design of emulsion interface to accurately regulate LiD, but also provide scientific guidelines for applying Ch/CS in functional food, medicine and other fields.
