Pehlivanoğlu H, Aksoy A, Uzun S, Yaman M, Palabıyık İ. Investigation of formation of AGEs precursors, hydroxymethylfurfural and malondialdehyde in oleogel added cakes using an in vitro simulated gastrointestinal digestive system. Food Chem 2024; 457:140179. [PMID: 38924919 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140179] [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: 02/14/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
The baking process has the potential to generate health-risk compounds, including products from lipid oxidation and Maillard reaction. Pre- and post-digestion levels of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), malondialdehyde (MDA), glyoxal (GO), and methylglyoxal (MGO) were studied in cakes formulated with hazelnut and sunflower oil, along with their oleogels as margarine substitutes. The concentration of HMF in oil and oleogel-formulated cakes increased after digestion compared to cakes formulated with margarine. The MDA values were between 82 and 120 μg/100 g in oil and oleogel formulated cakes before digestion and a decrease was observed after digestion. The substitution of margarine with oil and oleogels resulted in the production of high amounts of GO and MGO in cakes. However, the highest bioaccessibility as 318.2% was found in cakes formulated by margarine for GO. Oleogels may not pose a potential health benefit compared to margarines due to the formation of HMF, MDA, GO, and MGO.

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.

Abstract
Oleogels are innovative structured fat systems that can replace detrimental lipids and saturated fats. Among the various gelators used to construct oleogels, phytosterols are regarded as potential oleogelators due to ability to lower blood cholesterol levels and protect patients from cardiovascular illnesses, although little research has been conducted on phytosterols. This article examines the formation, characterization, and application of phytosterol-based oleogels in detail. The oleogelation behaviors of phytosterol-based oleogels are affected by their formulation, which includes phytosterol type, combined oleogelator, proportion, concentration and oil type. These oleogels exhibit potential applications as solid fat substitutes without affecting the texture or sensory properties of food products or as effective delivery vehicles. To encourage the research and implementation of phytosterol-based oleogels, we will ultimately not only highlight problems related to their use in food processing, but also provide a few viewpoints, with the goal of providing fresh insights for advancing trends.

Abstract
Novel biomaterials are becoming more crucial in treating human diseases. However, many materials require complex artificial modifications and synthesis, leading to potential difficulties in preparation, side effects, and clinical translation. Recently, significant progress has been achieved in terms of direct self-assembly of natural products from herbal medicine (NPHM), an important source for novel medications, resulting in a wide range of bioactive supramolecular materials including gels, and nanoparticles. The NPHM-based supramolecular bioactive materials are produced from renewable resources, are simple to prepare, and have demonstrated multi-functionality including slow-release, smart-responsive release, and especially possess powerful biological effects to treat various diseases. In this review, NPHM-based supramolecular bioactive materials have been revealed as an emerging, revolutionary, and promising strategy. The development, advantages, and limitations of NPHM, as well as the advantageous position of NPHM-based materials, are first reviewed. Subsequently, a systematic and comprehensive analysis of the self-assembly strategies specific to seven major classes of NPHM is highlighted. Insights into the influence of NPHM structural features on the formation of supramolecular materials are also provided. Finally, the drivers and preparations are summarized, emphasizing the biomedical applications, future scientific challenges, and opportunities, with the hope of igniting inspiration for future research and applications.

Novel organic-inorganic composite pea protein silica food-grade aerogel materials: Fabrication, mechanisms, high oil-holding property and curcumin delivery capacity. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 273:132832. [PMID: 38834123 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132832] [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: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024]
Abstract
The fragility of the skeleton and poor bioaccessibility limit Silica aerogel's application in the food industry. In this study, composite gels were obtained by cross-linking pea proteins isolate (PPI) with Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)to improve the bioavailability of silica-derived aerogels. It indicated that TEOS first condensed with H+ to form secondary particles and then complexed with PPI via hydroxyl groups to form a composite aerogel. Meanwhile, the PPI-Si composite aerogel formed a dense mesoporous structure with a specific surface area of 312.5 g/cm3. This resulted in a higher oil holding percentage of 89.67 % for the PPI (10 %)-Si aerogel, which was 34.1 % higher than other studies, leading to a more stable oleogel. Finally, as a delivery system, the composite oleogel not only could significantly increase the bioaccessibility rate by 27.4 % compared with silica aerogel, but also could efficiently inhibit the premature release of curcumin in the simulated gastric fluids, while allowed sustainably release in the simulated intestinal fluids. These results provided a theoretical basis for the application of silica-derived aerogels in food and non-food applications.

Abstract
The harmful effects of trans and saturated fatty acids have attracted worldwide attention. Edible oleogels, which can structure liquid oils, are promising healthy alternatives to traditional fats. Active research on oleogels is focused on the interaction between unsaturated oils with different fatty acid compositions and low molecular weight or polymer oleogels. The unique network structure inside oleogels has facilitated their application in candies, spreads, meat, and other products. However, the micro- and macro-properties, as well as the functional properties of oleogels vary by preparation method and the system composition. This review discusses the characteristics of oleogels, serving as a reference for the application of oleogels in food products. Specifically, it (i) classifies oleogels and explains the influence of gelling factors on their gelation, (ii) describes the methods for measuring the physicochemical properties of oleogels, and (iii) discusses the current applications of oleogels in food products.

Abstract
An O1/W/O2 double emulsion gel, as a functional fat substitute and based on nanoemulsions and hydrophobic Pickering particles, is prepared by two-step emulsification to co-encapsulate hydrophilic cyanidin and hydrophobic quercetin. Nanoemulsions loading quercetin are fabricated by Tween-80 and combining high-speed and high-pressure emulsification. Phytosterol nanoparticles stabilize the W-O2 interface of the secondary emulsion to load cyanidin in the W phase. The concentration of Tween-80 is optimized as 0.3% by the droplet size and viscosity of nanoemulsions. The structural stability of double emulsion gels will be weakened along with the increase of nanoemulsions, showing lower modulus and encapsulation efficiency (EE) and bigger droplets. In double emulsion gels, the EE of quercetin and cyanidin reaches 93% and 85.6%, respectively. Analysis of molecular interaction indicates that Tween-80 would decrease the in-situ hydrophobicity of phytosterol nanoparticles by hydrogen bonding adsorption, thereby weakening the emulsification. The pH-chromic 3D printing of double emulsion gels is designed according to the pH sensitivity of cyanidin. Texture profile analysis is performed to test the textural properties of 3D-printed objects. The simulated digestion is conducted on double emulsion gels. The double emulsion gel with fewer nanoemulsions is beneficial for protecting quercetin and improving the delivery due to the higher structural stability, while that with more nanoemulsions is conducive to the digestion of cyanidin and camellia oil due to weakened semi-solid properties. This double emulsion gel further simulates fat tissues by co-encapsulating hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances, promoting the application of fat substitutes in the food industry.

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
Turmeric extract (TE)-loaded oleogels (TE-OG) was fabricated by an emulsion template technique using xanthan gum (XG) and soy lecithin (SL) as oleogelators. The formulation for TE-OG was optimized using 0.32% XG, 1.2% SL, and 1.0% TE. The optimized TE-OG had a minimal particle size of 810.23 ± 10.68 nm as measured by the dynamic light scattering (DLS) method, and a high encapsulation efficiency (EE) of 96.62 ± 0.56%. Additionally, the optimized TE-OG exhibited a favorable zeta potential of -27.73 ± 0.44 mV, indicating the good stability of the TE-OG due to the electrostatic repulsion between particles. TE-OG formulated with 0.32% XG and 1.2% SL was subjected to frequency sweep testing to evaluate its solid-like rheological behavior. The oil-binding capacity (OBC) of TE-OG was consistently maintained above 99.99%. In vitro digestion of TE-OG demonstrated the potential of the emulsion template for controlled release, with less than 20% of the encapsulated curcumin being released in simulated gastric fluid (SGF), whereas nearly 70% was released in the simulated intestinal fluid (SIF). Moreover, TE-OG affected the rapid release of free fatty acids (FFAs), which have a positive effect on the digestion of triacylglycerols found in soybean oil (SO). TE-OG was further used as an alternative to commercial butter to produce pound cakes, and their rheological properties were compared to those of the pound cake prepared using commercial butter. The pound cake prepared using TE-OG showed a noticeable decrease in hardness from 10.08 ± 1.39 N to 7.88 ± 0.68 N and increased porosity, demonstrating the inherent capability of TE-OG to enhance the overall quality standards of bakery products.

These were studied to evaluate the influence of the oil structuring system on the lipid hydrolysis and bioaccessibility of three healthy fatty acids (FA) (palmitic, oleic, and α-linolenic acids) and of curcumin, compared to the oil mixture (bulk oil, BO). The oil structuring system influenced the firmness and texture, and the presence of curcumin significantly altered the color parameters. GE showed higher lipid digestibility, with a greater proportion of absorbable fraction (higher content of free FA and monoacylglycerides) than OG, which behaved similarly to BO. The presence of curcumin affected the degree of lipolysis, reducing lipid digestibility in OG and increasing it in GE. As for FA bioaccessibility, although GE presented higher percentages overall, curcumin significantly increased and decreased FA bioaccessibility in OG and GE, respectively. The oil structuring system also influenced the bioaccessibility of curcumin, which was higher in GE. Therefore, when selecting an oil structuring system, their physicochemical properties, the degree of lipid hydrolysis, and the bioaccessibility of both curcumin and the FA studied should all be considered.

Food Res Int 2023; 173:113239. [PMID: 37803552 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2023] [Revised: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
The possibility to steer extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) digestion and polyphenol bioaccessibility through oleogelation was investigated. EVOO was converted into oleogels using lipophilic (monoglycerides, rice wax, sunflower wax, phytosterols) or hydrophilic (whey protein aerogel particles, WP) gelators. In-vitro digestion demonstrated that the oleogelator nature influenced both lipid digestion and polyphenol bioaccessibility. WP-based oleogels presented ∼100% free fatty acid release compared to ∼64% for unstructured EVOO and ∼40 to ∼55% for lipophilic-based oleogels. This behavior was attributed to the ability of WP to promote micelle formation through oleogel destructuring. Contrarily, the lower lipolysis of EVOO gelled with lipophilic gelators compared to unstructured EVOO suggested that the gelator obstructed lipase accessibility. Tyrosol and hydroxytyrosol bioaccessibility increased for WP oleogels (∼27%), while liposoluble-based oleogels reduced it by 7 to 13%. These findings highlight the deep effect of the gelator choice on the digestion fate of EVOO components in the human body.

Abstract
Plant sterols (PS) are cholesterol-like terpenoids widely spread in the kingdom Plantae. Being the target of extensive research for more than a century, PS have topped with evidence of having beneficial effects in healthy subjects and applications in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. However, many gaps in several fields of PS's research still hinder their widespread practical applications. In fact, many of the mechanisms associated with PS supplementation and their health benefits are still not fully elucidated. Furthermore, compared to cholesterol data, many complex PS chemical structures still need to be fully characterized, especially in oxidized PS. On the other hand, PS molecules have also been the focus of structural modifications for applications in diverse areas, including not only the above-mentioned but also in e.g., drug delivery systems or alternative matrixes for functional foods and fats. All the identified drawbacks are also superimposed by the need of new PS sources and technologies for their isolation and purification, taking into account increased environmental and sustainability concerns. Accordingly, current and future trends in PS research warrant discussion.

Abstract
During recent years, the applicability of bi-, oleo- and emulgels has been widely studied, proving several advantages as compared to conventional fats, such as increasing the unsaturated fat content of products and being more sustainable for temperate regions as compared to tropical fats. Moreover, these alternative fat systems improve the nutritional profile, increase the bioavailability of bioactive compounds, and can be used as preservation films and markers for the inactivation of pathogens, while in 3D printing facilitate the obtaining of superior food products. Furthermore, bi-, oleo- and emulgels offer food industries efficient, innovative, and sustainable alternatives to animal fats, shortenings, margarine, palm and coconut oil due to the nutritional improvements. According to recent studies, gels can be used as ingredients for the total or partial replacement of saturated and trans fats in the meat, bakery and pastry industry. The evaluation of the oxidative quality of this gelled systems is significant because the production process involves the use of heat treatments and continuous stirring where large amounts of air can be incorporated. The aim of this literature review is to provide a synthesis of studies to better understand the interaction of components and to identify future improvements that can be applied in oil gelling technology. Generally, higher temperatures used in obtaining polymeric gels, lead to more oxidation compounds, while a higher concentration of structuring agents leads to a better protection against oxidation. Due to the gel network ability to function as a barrier against oxidation factors, gelled matrices are able to provide superior protection for the bioactive compounds. The release percentage of bioactive molecules can be regulated by formulating the gel matrix (type and concentration of structuring agents and type of oil). In terms of food products, future research may include the use of antioxidants to improve the oxidative stability of the reformulated products.

Effects of polysaccharide thickening agent on the preparation of walnut oil oleogels based on methylcellulose: Characterization and delivery of curcumin. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 232:123291. [PMID: 36652980 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2022] [Revised: 11/07/2022] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
Walnut oil-based oleogels were prepared by the emulsion-templated method using methylcellulose at different concentrations and viscosities as the oleogelators and polysaccharides (sodium alginate, xanthan gum and κ-carrageenan) as the thickening agents. The microscopic properties, rheological properties and oil binding capacity (OBC) of the oleogels were evaluated. The intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding of polysaccharide stabilized the network structure of the oleogel. The increasing methylcellulose concentration contributed to forming a more stable interfacial layer and providing oleogel with a compact structure. κ-Carrageenan resulted in a better OBC (97.37 %) and rheological properties of the methylcellulose-based oleogel. When served as a delivery system of curcumin, the highest encapsulation rate of curcumin (38.06 %) was achieved by the κ-carrageenan oleogel. The structure of oleogels slowed down the release rate of free fatty acids and curcumin during the early stage of in vitro digestion and the κ-carrageenan oleogel exhibited the highest inhibiting effect. This finding suggests that the polysaccharide-based walnut oil oleogels had a firmer structure and could be a promising approach to deliver curcumin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pumpkin seed and sunflower oil are rich in bioactive compounds, but are prone to oxidation during storage. Their fatty acids, carotenoid and volatile compounds and their Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) profiles were studied during 8 months storage in order to assess the overall quality, but also to assess the impact of the oleogelation as conditioning process. RESULTS The fatty acids methyl esters were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The linoleic acid was the most abundant in the oils (604.6 g kg-1 in pumpkin and 690 g kg-1 in sunflower), but also in oleogels. Through high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), lutein and β-carotene were determined as specific carotenoid compounds of the pumpkin seed oil and oleogel, in a total amount of 0.0072 g kg-1 . The volatile compounds profile revealed the presence of alpha-pinene for the pumpkin seed oil and oleogels and a tentative identification of limonene for the sunflower oil. Hexanal was also detected in the oleogels, indicating a thermal oxidation, which was further analyzed through infrared spectroscopy. CONCLUSIONS During 8 months storage, the decrease of polyunsaturated fatty acid total amount was 5.72% for the pumpkin seed oil and 3.55% for the oleogel, while in the sunflower oil samples of 2.93% and 3.28% for the oleogel. It was concluded that oleogelation might protect specific carotenoid compounds, since the oleogels displayed higher content of β-carotene at each storage time. Hexanal and heptanal were detected during storage, regardless of the oil or oleogel type. FTIR analysis depicts the differences in the constituent fatty acids resulting due to thermal oxidation or due to storage. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Gels 2023; 9:gels9010047.

Abstract
This research evaluated the influence of stearic acid, sunflower lecithin, and sorbitan monooleate on soy wax (SYW)/rice bran oil (RBO)-based oleogels. The physiochemical behavior of oleogel samples was evaluated using colorimetry, microscopy, FTIR, mechanical, crystallization kinetics, X-ray diffraction, and a drug release investigation. The prepared oleogels were light yellow, and adding emulsifiers did not change their appearance. All oleogels showed an oil binding capacity of >98%, independent of emulsifier treatment. The surface topography revealed that emulsifiers smoothed the surface of the oleogels. Bright-field and polarized micrographs showed the presence of wax grains and needles. FTIR spectra indicated that oleogel samples had the same functional group diversity as the raw materials. The oleogel samples lacked a hydrogen-bonding peak. Hence, we postulated that non-covalent interactions were involved in the oleogel preparation. According to stress relaxation studies, the firmness and elastic component of oleogels were unaffected by emulsifiers. However, EML3 (oleogel containing sorbitan monooleate) showed lower relaxing characteristics than the others. EML3 exhibited the slowest crystallization profile. Due to its low d-spacing, EML3 was found to have densely packed crystal molecules and the largest crystallite size. The in vitro drug release studies showed that emulsifier-containing oleogels dramatically affected curcumin release. These results may help customize oleogels properties to adjust bioactive component release in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Oleogels (OGs) have gained a lot of interest as a delivery system for a variety of pharmaceuticals. The current study explains the development of jasmine floral wax (JFW) and wheat germ oil (WGO)-based OGs for oral drug (curcumin) delivery application. The OGs were made by dissolving JFW in WGO at 70 °C and cooling it to room temperature (25 °C). The critical gelation concentration of JFW that induces the gelation of WGO was found to be 10% (w/w). The OGs were characterized using various techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), microscopic analysis, and mechanical test. XRD data indicated that JFW influences the crystallinity of the OGs. Among the prepared OGs, OG 17.5 showed higher crystallization in the series. Optical microscopic studies demonstrated the formation of fiber structures due to the entanglement of crystals whereas, polarized light micrographs suggested the formation of spherulites or clustered crystallite structures. The mechanical properties of the OGs increased linearly with the increase in the JFW concentration. Curcumin-loaded OGs were examined for their controlled release applications. In summary, the developed OGs were found to have the necessary features for modulating the oral delivery of curcumin.

Fibrous and Spherical Aggregates of Ovotransferrin as Stabilizers for Oleogel-Based Pickering Emulsions: Preparation, Characteristics and Curcumin Delivery. Gels 2022; 8:gels8080517.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the effects and mechanisms of differently shaped aggregates of ovotransferrin (OVT) particles on oleogel-based Pickering emulsions (OPEs). Medium-chain triglyceride oil-based oleogels were constructed using beeswax, and their gel-sol melting temperatures were investigated. Atomic force microscopy confirmed that both OVT fibrils and OVT spheres were successfully prepared, and the three-phase contact angle measurements indicated that fibrous and spherical aggregates of OVT particles possessed great potential to stabilize the OPEs. Afterward, the oil-in-water OPEs were fabricated using oleogel as the oil phase and OVT fibrils/spheres as the emulsifiers. The results revealed that OPEs stabilized with OVT fibrils (FIB-OPEs) presented a higher degree of emulsification, smaller droplet size, better physical stability and stronger apparent viscosity compared with OPEs stabilized with OVT spheres (SPH-OPEs). The freeze–thaw stability test showed that the FIB-OPEs remained stable after three freeze–thaw cycles, while the SPH-OPEs could barely withstand one freeze–thaw cycle. An in vitro digestion study suggested that OVT fibrils conferred distinctly higher lipolysis (46.0%) and bioaccessibility (62.8%) of curcumin to OPEs.

Abstract
Designing a suitable matrix to protect sensitive bioactive compounds is an important stage in nutraceutical development. In this study, emulsion templated medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) oleogel was developed as co-delivery carriers for synergistic nutraceuticals, curcumin, and resveratrol and to 3D print in customized shapes for personalized nutrition. To obtain the stable emulsion, gelatin and gellan gum were added such that their protein-polysaccharide interaction helps in the structuring of the oil phase. Increasing the amount of gellan gum had a positive effect on stabilizing the emulsion but became the critical parameter during 3D printing. Hence, gellan gum of 1.5% (w/v) and gelatin at 10% (w/v) of water were considered optimum to produce a stable 30% O/W emulsion for 3D printing. Upon analyzing the in-vitro digestion behavior of the oleogel, it was observed that the bioactives were protected under oral and gastric conditions and allowed intestinal targeted delivery. The total bioaccessible fraction increased up to 1.13-fold and 1.2-fold for curcumin and resveratrol respectively compared to control (MCT oil). The FFAs release profile also indicated that gelators play an important role in lipase activity. Also, the ex-vivo everted gut sac analysis showed enhanced permeation of about 1.83 times and 1.13 times for curcumin and resveratrol respectively. Thus, this study provides useful insights into the 3D printing of emulsion templated oleogel as personalized nutraceutical carriers.

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.

Abstract
Conventional solid fats play a crucial role as an ingredient in many processed foods. However, these fats contain a high amount of saturated fats and trans fats. Legislations and dietary recommendations related to these two types of fats set forth as a consequence of evidence showing their deleterious health impact have triggered the attempts to find alternate tailor-made lipids for these solid fats. Oleogels is considered as a novel alternative, which has reduced saturated fat and no trans fat content. In addition to mimicking the distinctive characteristics of solid fats, oleogels can be developed to contain a high amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids and used to deliver bioactives. Although there has been a dramatic rise in the interest in developing oleogels for food applications over the past decade, none of them has been commercially used in foods so far due to the deficiency in their crystal network structure, particularly in monocomponent gels. Very recently, there is a surge in the interest in using of combination of gelators due to the synergistic effects that aid in overcoming the drawbacks in monocomponent gels. However, currently, there is no comprehensive insight into synergism among oleogelators reported in recent studies. Therefore, a comprehensive intuition into the findings reported on synergism is crucial to fill this gap. The objective of this review is to give a comprehensive insight into synergism among gelators based on recent literature. This paper also identifies the future research propositions towards developing oleogels capable of exactly mimicking the properties of conventional solid fats to bridge the gap between laboratory research and the food industry.

Abstract
There is a growing need for healthier foods with no trans and reduced saturated fat. However, solid fats play critical roles in texture and sensory attributes of food products, making it challenging to eliminate them in foods. Recently, the concept of oleogelation as a novel oil structuring technique has received numerous attentions owing to their great potential to mimic the properties of solid fats. Understanding textural, rheological and sensory properties of oleogels helps predict the techno-functionalities of oleogels to replace solid fats in food products. This research critically reviews the textural and rheological properties of oleogels prepared by low molecular weight oleogelators (LMWGs) and functional characteristics of foods formulated by these oleogels. The mechanical properties of LMWG-containing oleogels are comprehensively discussed against conventional solid fats. The interactions between the oleogel and its surrounding food matrix are explained, and the sensory attributes of oleogel containing reformulated products are highlighted. Scientific insights into the texture and rheological properties of oleogels manufactured with a wide range of low molecular gelators and their related products are provided in order to boost their implication for creating healthier foods with high consumer acceptability. Future research opportunities on low molecular weight gelators are also discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Curcumin is a natural antioxidant with important beneficial properties for health, although its low bioavailability and sensitivity to many environmental agents limits its use in the food industry. Furthermore, some studies mention a potential synergistic effect with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, comprising other bioactive compounds extremely unstable and susceptible to oxidation. A relatively novel strategy to avoid oxidation processes is to transform liquid oils into three-dimensional structures by adding a gelling agent and forming a self-assembled network that can later be vectorized by incorporating it into other systems. The present study aimed to design and optimize an oil gelled-in-water curcumin-loaded emulsion to maximize curcumin stability and minimize lipid oxidation in terms of some critical operating parameters, such as dispersed phase, emulsifier and stabilizer concentrations, and homogenization rate. RESULTS The operating conditions that had a significant effect on the formulation were the dispersed phase weight fraction affecting droplet size and total lipid oxidation, homogenization conditions affecting droplet size and primary lipid oxidation, and emulsifier concentration affecting droplet size (significance level = 95%). The optimal formulation for maximizing curcumin load and minimizing lipid oxidation in the oleogelified matrix was 140.4 g kg-1 dispersed phase, 50.0 g kg-1 emulsifier, 4.9 g kg-1 stabilizer and homogenization speed 1016 × g. CONCLUSION The results obtained in the present study provide a valuable tool for the rational design and development of oil gelled-in-water emulsions that stabilize and transport bioactive compounds such as curcumin. © 2021 The Authors.

Abstract
Oleogels are semi-solid materials containing a large fraction of liquid oil entrapped in a network of structuring molecules. In the food industry, these formulations can be used to mimic fats and to deliver bioactive compounds. In the last decade, there has been increasing interest in these structures, not only from a scientific point of view, i.e., studying new molecules, methodologies for gelification, and new structures, but also from a technological point of view, with researchers and companies exploring these structures as a way to overcome certain challenges and/or create new and innovative products. One of the exciting applications of oleogels is the delivery of functional molecules, where the incorporation of oil-soluble functional compounds can be explored not only at the macroscale but also at micro- and nanoscales, resulting in different release behaviors and also different applications. This review presents and discusses the most recent works on the development, production, characterization, and applications of oleogels and other oleogel-based systems to deliver functional molecules in foods.

Abstract
Oral administration is the most popular and patient-compliant route for drug delivery, though it raises great challenges due to the involvement of the gastro-intestine (GI) system and the drug bioavailability. Drug bioavailability is directly related to its ability to dissolve, transport and/or absorb through the physiological environment. A great number of drugs are characterized with low water solubility due to their hydrophobic nature, thus limiting their oral bioavailability and clinical use. Therefore, new strategies aiming to provide a protective shell through the GI system and improve drug solubility and permeability in the intestine were developed to overcome this limitation. Lipid-based systems have been proposed as good candidates for such a task owing to their hydrophobic nature which allows high drug loading, drug micellization ability during intestinal digestion due to the lipid content, and the vehicle physical protective environment. The use of edible lipids with high biocompatibility paves the bench-to-bedside translation. Four main types of structured lipid-based drug delivery systems differing in the physical state of the lipid phase have been described in the literature, namely emulsions, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructured lipid carriers, and oleogel-based particles. The current review provides a comprehensive overview of the different structured edible lipid-based oral delivery systems investigated up to date and emphasizes the contribution of each system component to the delivery performance, and the oral delivery path of lipids.

Abstract
In order to improve the nutritional and quality characteristics of food, solid fats are widely used in food formulations. With the continuous improvement of consumers' awareness of health in recent years, substantial attempts have been carried out to find substitutes for solid fats to reduce saturated fatty acid content in foods. Oleogels have drawn increasing attention due to their attractive advantages such as easy fabrication, superior fatty acid composition and safe use in food products to satisfy consumers' demands for healthy products. This review provides the latest information on the diversified oleogel systems. The feasibility of oleogel and oleogel-based system as nutraceutical vehicles is elucidated. The type as well as concentration of oleogelators and the synergistic effect between two or more oleogelators are important factors affecting the properties of obtained oleogel. Oleogels used in nutraceutical delivery have been shown to offer increased loading amount, enhanced bioaccessibility and targeted or controlled release. These nutrients wrapped in oleogels may in turn affect the formation and properties of oleogels. Furthermore, the future perspectives of oleogels are discussed. The feasible research trends of food-grade oleogel include oleogel-based solid lipid particle, essential oil-in-oleogel system, delivery of probiotics, nutraceuticals co-delivery and microencapsulated oleogel.

Abstract
Among available structuring agents that have been used to provide solid properties to liquid oils, protein is a more recent candidate. Due to their nutritional value and high consumer acceptance, proteins are of special interest for the preparation of edible oleogels as an alternative for solid fats. Whereas the field of protein oleogelation is still rather new and just starts unfolding, several preparation methods have been demonstrated to be suitable for protein oleogel preparation. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the link between microstructural properties of the gels and macroscopic rheological properties, and the potential of such protein-based oleogels as a fat replacer in food products. In this review, we therefore provide an overview of various protein oleogel preparation methods and the resulting gel microstructures. Based on the different structures, we discuss how the rheological properties can be modified for the different types of protein oleogels. Finally, we consider the suitability of the different preparation methods regarding potential applications on industrial scale, and provide a short summary of the current state of knowledge regarding the behavior of protein oleogels as a fat replacer in food products.

Abstract
Cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil is a valuable source of bioactive molecules, including phenolic compounds. Oleogels are designed for trans and saturated fats substitution in foods, but also demonstrate protection and delivery of bioactive compounds. Consequently, the present work aimed to assess individual phenolic compounds dynamics and infrared fingerprints during the ambient storage of pumpkin seed oil and thereof oleogel. For oleogels production, a 5% ternary mixture of waxes, composed by 3% beewax, 1% sunflower wax and 1% rice bran wax, was used. Phenolic compounds were extracted by traditional liquid–liquid extraction, followed by HPLC-MS quantification. FTIR (400–4000 cm−1) was used for characterizing and monitoring the oxidative stability of all samples and for the evaluation of intermolecular forces between oleogelator mixtures and oil. Specific wavenumbers indicated oxidative processes in stored sample sets; storage time and sample clustering patterns were revealed by chemometrics. Isolariciresinol, vanillin, caffeic and syringic acids were quantified. The main changes were determined for isolariciresinol, which decreased in liquid pumpkin seed oil samples from 0.77 (T1) to 0.13 mg/100 g (T4), while for oleogel samples it decreased from 0.64 (T1) to 0.12 mg/100 g (T4). However, during the storage at room temperature, it was concluded that oleogelation technique might show potential protection of specific phenolic compounds such as syringic acid and vanillin after 8 months of storage. For isolariciresinol, higher amounts are registered in the oleogel (0.411 mg/100 g oil) than in the oil (0.37 mg/100 g oil) after 5 months of ambient temperature storage (T3). Oxidation processes occurred after 5 months storage for both oil and oleogel samples.

Abstract
Organogel (OG) is a class of semi-solid gel, entrapping organic solvent within a three-dimensional network, which is formed via the self-assembly of organogelators. In the present study, OG was produced by glycerol monolaurate (GML) as organogelator. The influence of hydrocolloids with different surface charges (chitosan (CS), konjac glucomannan (KGM) and sodium alginate (SA)) on the physiochemical properties of OG was investigated. Rheological studies demonstrated that OG and pure hydrocolloid solution showed shear-thinning behavior. After incorporation of the hydrocolloid, the initial viscosity of OG was lowered from ~100 Pa·s to <10 Pa·s, and then the viscosity increased to more than 100 Pa·s at a low shear rate of 0.1-0.2 s-1, which subsequently decreased with a higher shear rate. OGs in the presence of hydrocolloids still kept the thermo-sensitivity, while the melting point of the OG decreased with the incorporation of hydrocolloids. Hydrocolloid addition greatly shortened the gelling time of the OG from 21 min to less than 2 min. The presence of hydrocolloids increased the particle size of oil droplets in the molten OG. Some aggregation and coalescence of oil droplets occurred in the presence of positive-charged CS and negative-charged SA, respectively. After gelling, the gel structure converted into a biphasic-like network. Hydrocolloids improved the hardness, stickiness and the oil-holding stability of OGs by 18.8~33.9%. Overall, hydrocolloid incorporation could modulate the properties of OGs through their different surface charge properties. These novel OGs have potential as nutrient carriers or low-fat margarine alternatives and avoid the trans-fatty acid intake.

Abstract
The current study developed ethylcellulose (EC) based oleogels with the addition of a surface active ingredient (sorbitan monopalmitate, SP), in order to increase the active loading of curcumin by reducing lipid oxidation, improving curcumin solubility and chemical stability. With the increase in SP content, EC oleogels had more compact gel networks with evenly distributed smaller pores. Rheological analysis revealed that the gels had shear-thinning behavior, and higher concentration of SP contributed to the systems with higher viscosity. The inclusion of SP also worked to reinforce gel strength as determined by frequency sweep, creep recovery and textural analyses. EC oleogels with higher content of SP were capable to hold more liquid oil during centrifugation, and the T2 relaxation time was much lower as determined by NMR. Peroxide value of the oleogels was significantly lower in the systems with SP, and a SP content of 4% or 6% was effective in inhibiting lipid oxidation during storage. When curcumin was incorporated within the gel networks, its effective concentration was more retained with the addition of SP, as no curcumin crystals were detected by DSC during a 9-day storage test, and curcumin had much higher retention when exposed to UV light for 8 h.

Effect of Adding Curcumin on the Properties of Linseed Oil Organogels Used as Fat Replacers in Pâtés. Antioxidants (Basel) 2020; 9:antiox9080735. [PMID: 32796756 PMCID: PMC7463781 DOI: 10.3390/antiox9080735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2020] [Revised: 08/05/2020] [Accepted: 08/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Beeswax-based organogels were formulated with linseed oil and curcumin according to a statistical design to increase the oxidative stability of spreadable meat products (pâté) where these organogels (OGCur) were incorporated as fat substitutes. The organogels obtained under optimal conditions (9.12% beeswax, 0.54% curcumin) showed a mechanical strength similar to pork backfat determined by back extrusion and high oil binding capacity (OBC; over 90%). The incorporation of curcumin at this concentration did not lead to any change in the arrangement of the crystal network, OBC, and mechanical, thermal, or rheological properties of the organogels. Beeswax organogels with and without curcumin, with a β’ orthorhombic subcell structure, showed a predominant elastic behavior and a melting event wider and shifted to lower temperatures than pure beeswax, suggesting a plasticizer effect of the oil in the wax crystals. The oxidative stability of the organogels under accelerated oxidation conditions increased due to the incorporation of curcumin. A decrease in the curcumin content was found from day 4 at 60 °C, together with a significantly lower formation of both peroxides and malonaldehyde. When pork backfat was partially or totally replaced by OGCur in pâtés, a noticeable protective effect of curcumin against lipid oxidation was found during chilled storage
