Food Chem 2024; 457:139924.

Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the mechanisms associated with the stabilizing effects of whey protein concentrate-80 (WPC80) and L-ascorbyl 6-palmitate (LAP) on folic acid (FA). Multispectral techniques show that WPC80 binds to FA and LAP mainly through hydrophobic interactions, and that energy is transferred from WPC80 to FA and LAP in a nonradiative form (FA/LAP); The combination of FA/LAP resulted in a change in the conformation and secondary structure content of WPC80, an increase in the absolute zeta potential of the system, and a shift in the particle size distribution towards smaller sizes. The compound system exhibits strengthened antioxidant properties and favorable binding properties. Besides, WPC80 improves the storage stability of FA under different conditions. These results demonstrated that the ternary complex formed by FA co-binding with WPC80 and LAP is an effective way to improve the stability against of FA.

Abstract
In order to investigate the effects of black rice extract (BE) on the composition of oxidized myofibrillar protein (MP) gel, different concentrations of BE (0, 10, 20, 50 mg g-1) were analyzed experimentally. Results revealed that the addition of small doses of BE significantly inhibited the formation of carbonyl groups in oxidized MP, and improved surface hydrophobicity and gel water holding capacity. Additionally, 10 and 20 mg g-1 BE increased the ordered structure of oxidized MP. Furthermore, dynamic rheometer results showed a significant increase in the storage modulus (G') of oxidized MP with 10 and 20 mg g-1 BE during heating. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) showed that MP formed a denser network structure with addition of 10 and 20 mg g-1 BE. Low-Field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (LF-NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed that there is a significant increase in immobile water in MP gel and a decrease in free water within the 20 mg g-1 BE group. In conclusion, 20 mg g-1 supplemented BE significantly improved the structure order and hardness of oxidized MP gel, increased its structure density and water holding capacity, and it provides a theoretical basis for the application of antioxidants in meat products.

Abstract
Lutein is critical for protecting the eye against light damage. The low solubility and high sensitivity of lutein to environmental stresses prevent its further application. The hypothesis is that the combination of one water-soluble antioxidant and one oil-soluble antioxidant will be beneficial to improve the stability of lutein emulsions. A low-energy method was performed to prepare lutein emulsions. The combination of a lipid-soluble antioxidant (propyl gallate or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) and a water-soluble antioxidant (tea polyphenol or ascobic acid) were investigated for improving the lutein retention rates. It was shown that the highest lutein retention rate was achieved by using propyl gallate and tea polyphenol, 92.57%, at Day 7. It was proven that the lutein retention rates of emulsions with propyl gallate and tea polyphenol were 89.8%, 73.5% and 55.2% at 4 °C, 25 °C and 37 °C, respectively, at Day 28. The current study is helpful to prepare for the further application of lutein emulsions for ocular delivery.

Abstract
Lycopene-loaded emulsions were formulated with whey protein isolate (WPI) covalently modified with high methoxylated pectin (HMP) or/and chlorogenic acid (CA) prepared by dry heating or/and alkali grafting. Covalent WPI products were confirmed by SDS-PAGE and degree of graft/CA binding equivalent values. The α-helix and β-sheet percentage, surface hydrophobicity and fluorescence intensity of WPI decreased significantly (p < 0.05) upon binding. Both binary and ternary complexes enhanced the stability of the emulsions, and lycopene retained more after UV irradiation, thermal treatment, storage, compared with emulsions stabilized by WPI, with the best protection by both ternary complexes. In vitro simulated digestion results showed that free fatty acids were released in the order of WPI > WPI-HMP > WPI-CA > WPI-HMP-CA ≈ WPI-CA-HMP. Bio-accessibility analysis showed the same trend as the fatty acid release rate. These results may provide a theoretical basis for applications of conjugating protein with polysaccharide or/and polyphenol emulsions.

Abstract
In this study, the influence of casein-caffeic acid-glucose ternary conjugate (CSC) on the physicochemical properties and bioaccessibility of astaxanthin-loaded emulsion was investigated and compared with sodium caseinate (CSN), a synthetic emulsifier commonly used in the food industry. The CSC-stabilized emulsion exhibits droplet characteristics similar to CSN-stabilized emulsion, and can effectively resist the external forces that lead to the phase separation of the emulsion. Although phase separation also occurred at pH 4.0, CSC emulsion had a wider range of pH stability (pH 3.0, 5.0-8.0) and higher salt ion stability than CSN emulsion. Furthermore, CSC-stabilized astaxanthin emulsions showed better astaxanthin protection under different heat treatment conditions and storage temperatures compared with CSN. After 28 days of storage at 4 °C, astaxanthin residues in the CSC-stabilized emulsion reached 92.37 %. The bioaccessibility of astaxanthin in CSC-stabilized emulsion was 26.21 %, much higher than that in CSN (6.47 %). This research study provides a platform for designing astaxanthin-fortified food or beverage systems to achieve better stability and delivery to target sites.

Abstract
Chlorogenic acid (CGA), also known as coffee tannic acid and 3-caffeoylquinic acid, is a water-soluble polyphenolic phenylacrylate compound produced by plants through the shikimic acid pathway during aerobic respiration. CGA is widely found in higher dicotyledonous plants, ferns, and many Chinese medicine plants, which enjoy the reputation of “plant gold.” We have summarized the biological activities of CGA, which are mainly shown as anti-oxidant, liver and kidney protection, anti-bacterial, anti-tumor, regulation of glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism, anti-inflammatory, protection of the nervous system, and action on blood vessels. We further determined the main applications of CGA in the food industry, including food additives, food storage, food composition modification, food packaging materials, functional food materials, and prebiotics. With a view to the theoretical improvement of CGA, biological activity mechanism, and subsequent development and utilization provide reference and scientific basis.

Abstract
This research aims to prepare capsules emulsion using gallic acid (GA), dextran (DEX), bovine serum albumin (BSA), sodium alginate, and K-carrageenan (K-Car) as the biological delivery system of lycopene. The stability and bioaccessibility of lycopene were further improved through encapsulation of covalent complex of sodium alginate and K-Car. The molecular weight distribution and secondary structure of the conjugates were analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The storage stability of the emulsion stabilized by conjugates was measured with Turbiscan stability index (TSI) and fluctuation of the particle size. The TSI value of ternary conjugates was 18.7 (37℃) with particle sizes ranging from 208 to 319 nm. Then, the changes of three-dimensional reticulate structures and physical properties of sodium alginate-K were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and TPA. The thermal stability of the sodium alginate-K-Car composite systems was increased compared with sodium alginate. The bioaccessibility of lycopene was significantly improved under the dual embedding of BSA-DEX-GA conjugate emulsion and sodium alginate-K-Car composite systems.

Abstract
Lutein is a functional carotenoid that has a wide range of physiological benefits in humans. However, it easily degrades and becomes inactivated during storage and processing, resulting in low bioavailability. The development of new nanocarriers can effectively improve the stability and biological activity of lutein. In this study, zein hydrolysate (ZH) carriers were glycosylated with glucosamine (GLU) under the action of transglutaminase, and lutein-loaded glycosylated ZH nanoparticles (GZH-LUT) were constructed by liquid–liquid dispersion. The results showed that the GZH-LUT particles had a narrow size distribution in the range of 200–300 nm and a decreased zeta potential and polydispersity index. In particular, GZH trapped lutein more efficiently than ZH. In addition, GZH-LUT had better physical and chemical properties, including better water solubility, oxidative stability, and environmental stability than free lutein and ZH-LUT. These results indicate that glycosylated zein hydrolysate has the potential to be used as a novel protein-based nanocarrier to enhance the solubility and stability of lutein, which can further improve its bioavailability.

Abstract
Sweet potato leaf polyphenols (SPLPs) have shown potential health benefits in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Nowadays, consumption of SPLPs from animal feeds to foodstuff is becoming a trend worldwide. However, the application of SPLPs is limited by their low bioavailability and stability. β-lactoglobulin (βlg), a highly regarded whey protein, can interact with SPLPs at the molecular level to form reversible or irreversible nanocomplexes (NCs). Consequently, the functional properties and final quality of SPLPs are directly modified. In this review, the composition and structure of SPLPs and βlg, as well as methods of molecular complexation and mechanisms of formation of SPLPsβlgNCs, are revisited. The modified functionalities of SPLPsβlgNCs, especially protein conformational structures, antioxidant activity, solubility, thermal stability, emulsifying, and gelling properties including allergenic potential, digestibility, and practical applications are discussed for SPLPs future development.

Abstract
High internal phase emulsions (HIPEs), also called highly concentrated emulsions with a minimal internal phase volume fraction of 74%, have been paid increasing attention in the development of functional foods due to their high potential in loading with large amounts of hydrophobic nutriceuticals. In the present study, HIPEs stabilized by polyphenol-amyloid supramolecular filaments were prepared for encapsulation of olive oil and loading with lutein. Binding and stacking of the green tea polyphenol epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on the surface of amyloid fibrils fabricated from hen egg lysozyme resulted in the hybrid supramolecules, which assembled to form hydrogels. The amyloid fibril clusters shrouded by EGCG were observed in the microstructure of the hydrogels characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM). HIPEs stabilized by the EGCG-amyloid fibril supramolecules showed the typical microstructure of highly packed polyhedral geometric oil droplets. The gel strength of the HIPEs stabilized by the hybrid supramolecules was greater than that of HIPEs stabilized by pure amyloid fibrils. The droplet size of the HIPEs first decreased and then increased with the increase of EGCG contents in the hybrid supramolecules, which was consistent with the corresponding emulsion morphologies obtained from the images of confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Aggregation of the protein-based nanofibrils appeared in the continuous phase at higher EGCG contents. The droplet size of the HIPEs decreased with the increase of the amyloid fibril concentration, accompanied by more packed and homogenously dispersed lipid droplets, as shown in the CLSM images. A high loading content of lutein of up to 10 mg/mL in the prepared HIPEs was realized, and the stability of lutein against ultraviolet irradiation, heat, iron, and hydrogen peroxide was promoted significantly. In addition, encapsulation with the HIPEs prevented the oxidization of olive oil, and this effect was enhanced with the increase of the EGCG content in the hybrid supramolecules ranging from 0 to 0.25 wt %. The protection function of the HIPEs might be ascribed to the membrane of interfacial amyloid fibrils and the crowded oil droplet environment, both of which could shield the pro-oxidation factors.

Raza ZA, Munim SA, Ayub A. Recent developments in polysaccharide-based electrospun nanofibers for environmental applications. Carbohydr Res 2021; 510:108443. [PMID: 34597980 DOI: 10.1016/j.carres.2021.108443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2021] [Revised: 09/08/2021] [Accepted: 09/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Electrospinning has become an inevitable approach to produce nanofibrous structures for diverse environmental applications. Polysaccharides, due to their variety of types, biobased origins, and eco-friendly, and renewable nature are wonderful materials for the said purpose. The present review discusses the electrospinning process, the parameters involved in the formation of electrospun nanofibers in general, and the polysaccharides in specific. The selection of materials to be electrospun depends on the processing conditions and properties deemed desirable for specific applications. Thereby, the conditions to electrospun polysaccharides-based nanofibers have been focused on for possible environmental applications including air filtration, water treatment, antimicrobial treatment, environmental sensing, and so forth. The polysaccharide-based electrospun membranes, for instance, due to their active adsorption sites could find significant potential for contaminants removal from the aqueous systems. The study also gives some recommendations to overcome any shortcomings faced during the electrospinning and environmental applications of polysaccharide-based matrices.
