[PMID: 38574712 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139069] [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: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 03/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
A combined approach of microbial transglutaminase (MTGase) crosslinking and high-intensity ultrasound (HIU) was implemented to improve the physicochemical, rheological, structural, and thermal properties, as well as the targeted release of vitamin B12 of lesser mealworm protein isolate (LMPI)-based gels. Prolonging HIU to 60 min significantly reduced LMPIs' size, polydispersity, zeta-potential, and fluorescence intensity while increasing surface hydrophobicity, free amino (FAGs), and sulfhydryl (FSGs) groups. The MTGase-catalyzed LMPI gels effectively decreased the content of FAGs and FSGs. LMPI gels from 60 and 75 min HIU and MTGase catalysis exhibited a shear-thinning flow behavior, superior thermal stability, and improved water retention and gel strength with the most controlled release of vitamin B12 during in vitro simulated gastrointestinal digestion. Incorporating freeze-dried gel powders from 60 min HIU-treated MTGase-catalyzed LMPI and pea protein isolate into the dough of a new gluten-free bread improved physicochemical, textural, and sensory properties, with notable vitamin B12 retention rate.

ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 107:106902. [PMID: 38797128 PMCID: PMC11139769 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of ultrasonic treatment at different powers on the physicochemical properties, microstructure and quercetin delivery capacity of fermentation-induced soy protein isolate emulsion gel (FSEG). The FSEG was prepared by subjecting soy protein isolate (SPI) emulsion to ultrasonic treatment at various powers (0, 100, 200, 300, and 400 W), followed by lactic acid bacteria fermentation. Compared with the control group (0 W), the FSEG treated with ultrasound had higher hardness, water holding capacity (WHC) and rheological parameters. Particularly, at an ultrasonic power of 300 W, the FSEG had the highest hardness (101.69 ± 4.67 g) and WHC (75.20 ± 1.07%) (p < 0.05). Analysis of frequency sweep and strain scanning revealed that the storage modulus (G') and yield strains of FSEG increased after 300 W ultrasonic treatment. Additionally, the recovery rate after creep recovery test significantly increased from 18.70 ± 0.49% (0 W) to 58.05 ± 0.54% (300 W) (p < 0.05). Ultrasound treatment also resulted in an increased β-sheet content and the formation of a more compact micro-network structure. This led to a more uniform distribution of oil droplets and reduced mobility of water within the gel. Moreover, ultrasonic treatment significantly enhanced the encapsulation efficiency of quercetin in FSEG from 81.25 ± 0.62 % (0 W) to 90.04 ± 1.54% (300 W). The bioaccessibility of quercetin also increased significantly from 28.90 ± 0.40% (0 W) to 42.58 ± 1.60% (300 W) (p < 0.05). This study enriches the induction method of soy protein emulsion gels and provides some references for the preparation of fermented emulsion gels loaded with active substances.

Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 322:103051. [PMID: 37981462 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2023.103051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2023] [Revised: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/21/2023]
Abstract
A subtype of soft solid-like substances are emulsion gels (emulgels; EGs). These composite material's structures either consist of a network of aggregated emulsion droplets or a polymeric gel matrix that contains emulsion droplets. The product's rheological signature can be used to determine how effective it is for a specific application. The interactions between these structured system's separate components and production process, however, have a substantial impact on their rheological imprint. Therefore, rational comprehension of interdependent elements, their structural configurations, and the resulting characteristics of a system are essential for accelerating our progress techniques as well as for fine-tuning the technological and functional characteristics of the finished product. This article presents a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms and procedures of producing EGs (i.e., cold-set and heat-set) in order to determine the ensuing rheological features for various commercial applications, such as food systems. It also describes the influence of these methods on the rheological and textural characteristics of the EGs. Diverse preparation methods are the cause of the rheological-property correlations between different EGs. In many ways, EGs can be produced using various matrix polymers, processing techniques, and purposes. This may lead to various EG matrix structures and interactions between them, which in turn may affect the composition of EGs and ultimately their textural and rheological characteristics.

Abstract
Peanut protein isolate (PPI) nanoparticles were prepared by self-assembly under the combined action of ultrasound (US) and protein concentration. The effects of ultrasound intensity (150-500 W) and protein concentration (1-12 %, w/v) on the structural and functional properties of PPI nanoparticles were investigated. Low-intensity US significantly increased the particle size of PPI, but high-intensity US decreased it. The largest PPI nanoparticles were obtained when 10 % PPI was subjected to low-intensity US treatment (200 W for 5 min). These nanoparticles possessed unique structural characteristics, such as the lowest absolute ζ-potential and the highest contents of exposed free sulfhydryl and disulfide bond, which may be responsible for their excellent heat-set gelling properties. The 12 % PPI treated with low- and high-intensity US had the highest emulsifying activity index and emulsifying stability index, respectively. The self-assembled PPI nanoparticles induced by US treatments at high protein concentrations have great potentials for application in the food industry.

Abstract
The possible applications of w/o/w multiple emulsions (MEs) in ice creams are described. W/o/w MEs enable the encapsulation of sensitive compounds. Fat content is reduced using w/o/w MEs without losing the creaminess of the final products. Ice cream is a very suitable matrix for application of Pickering emulsions.
Ice cream is a popular product worldwide. Unfortunatelly, it contains a significant amount of fat. In this review, promising strategies for the use of w/o/w multiple emulsion structures in creams are assessed. W/o/w multiple emulsions (MEs) enable reduction the fat without losing the creamy taste and mouthfeel and also encapsulation of sensitive compounds. The encouraging application and formation of MEs in ice cream mixtures is supported by the use of natural food ingredients, such as fiber, which helps to stabilize the whole system and improves nutritional value. The future trends may be focused on the target stabilizations using Pickering paticles (PPs). The possible advantages, manufacture, evaluation methods, and predicted future prospects of MEs in ice creams are discussed.

Abstract
The actual food system with fat is always complex and fat crystal and fat crystal networks have important effects on the physical properties of food. Recently, power ultrasound (PU) had been widely recognized as an auxiliary technology of fat crystallization to modify food properties. This review expounded on the mechanism of ultrasonic crystallization, and summarized effects of various factors in the process of ultrasonic treatment on fat crystallization. Based on the above, combined with the application of ultrasound in emulsions, the ultrasonic fat crystallization effect in the emulsion system was judged and described. Research results indicated that PU could shorten the induction time of crystallization, accelerate the formation of crystal nuclei, and change the polymorphism of fat crystals. The product treated by PU formed smaller and more uniform crystals to produce a more viscoelastic fat crystal network. In emulsion systems, ultrasonic treatments showed the same effect, but the effect of ultrasonic crystallization on the emulsion stability was different due to fat crystals in different emulsion systems. Meanwhile, the importance of ultrasonic crystallization in lipid emulsions was emphasized, thus ultrasonic crystallization had great potential in emulsion systems.

Abstract
Oil-in-water-in-oil (O/W/O) double emulsions are recognized as an advanced design route for oil structuring that shows promising applications in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food fields. This review summarizes the main research advances of O/W/O double emulsions over the past two decades. It mainly focuses on understanding the preparation strategies, stabilization mechanism, and potential applications of O/W/O double emulsions. Several emulsification strategies are discussed, including traditional two-step emulsification method, phase-inversion approach, membrane emulsification, and microfluidic emulsification. Further, the role of interfacial stabilizers and viscosity in the stability of O/W/O double emulsions will be discussed with a focus on synthetic emulsifiers, natural biopolymer sand solid particles for achieving this purpose. Additionally, analytical methods for evaluating the stability of O/W/O double emulsions, such as advanced microscopy, rheology, and labeling assay are reviewed taking into account potential limitations of these characterization techniques. Moreover, possible innovative food applications are highlighted, such as simulating fat substitutes to decrease the trans- or saturated fatty acid content and developing novel delivery and encapsulation systems. This review paves a solid way for the exploration of O/W/O double emulsions toward large-scale implementation within the food industry.

Abstract
Emulsions of peanut and soy proteins, including their major components (arachin, conarachin, glycinin and β−conglycinin), were prepared by ultrasonication (300 W, 20 min) at a constant protein concentration (4%, w/v) and oil fraction (30%, v/v). These emulsions were then induced by CaCl2, transglutaminase (TGase) and glucono-δ-lactone (GDL) to form emulsion gels. The optimum coagulant concentrations were obtained for peanut and soy protein-stabilized emulsion gels, such as CaCl2 (0.15 and 0.25 g/dL, respectively), TGase (25 U/mL) and GDL (0.3% and 0.5%, w/v, respectively). For the CaCl2-induced emulsion gels, the hardness of the β−conglycinin gel was the highest, whereas that of the conarachin gel was the lowest. However, when TGase and GDL were used as coagulants, the strength of the conarachin emulsion gel was the best. For the GDL-induced emulsion gels, microstructural analysis indicated that the conarachin gel showed more homogeneous and compact structures. The gelation kinetics showed that the storage modulus (G′) of all the GDL-induced emulsions increased sharply except for the arachin-stabilized emulsion. The interactive force nature varied between conarachin and arachin emulsion gels. This work reveals that peanut conarachin could be used as a good protein source to produce emulsion gels when suitable coagulants are selected.

Abstract
This study determined the influence of diacylglycerol (DAG) pre-emulsion on the gel properties and microstructure of golden thread surimi gels. DAG emulsion stabilized using sodium caseinate was pre-emulsified through ultrasound. The average particle size of DAG pre-emulsion decreased from 1324.15 nm to 41.19 nm, with notable improvements in apparent viscosity and storage stability. The surimi gels with different amounts (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7% w/w) of DAG pre-emulsion were prepared under heat induction. The whiteness of the composite gels markedly increased with the incorporation of DAG pre-emulsion. The peak T22 value of immobilized water, the gel strength, and water-holding capacity increased gradually, but it slightly decreased with the addition of 7% pre-emulsion. The curve of G' and G″ kept climbing as the concentration of pre-emulsion, and the microstructure of the gel network tended to become denser and more orderly. Principal component analysis (PCA) of electronic nose results showed that the surimi gels containing pre-emulsion could be clearly distinguished from the control group. In conclusion, the addition of 5% DAG pre-emulsion to surimi not only improved gel properties to the highest extent but also be compensated for lipid loss during the rinsing of surimi.
