Microencapsulated Asiatic Pennywort (Centella asiatica) fortified chocolate oat milk beverage: Formulation, polyphenols content, and consumer acceptability. J Food Sci 2024. [PMID: 39138633 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.17277] [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: 03/09/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 08/15/2024]
Abstract
This study investigated the use of microencapsulated Asiatic pennywort (Centella asiatica) (CA) as a functional ingredient to formulate a novel chocolate oat milk beverage. The main objectives of the study were to characterize and encapsulate bioactive components from CA and to determine the polyphenol content and sensory properties of the beverage. CA extract was microencapsulated using maltodextrin and gum Arabic as carriers and subsequently freeze-dried to produce microcapsules. Microencapsulated CA was incorporated into chocolate oat milk at varying concentrations. Polyphenol content of the beverages was quantified using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Consumer acceptability and sensory perception of the beverages were evaluated through an acceptance test and a check-all-that-apply test, respectively, to assess the sensory characteristics of the chocolate oat milk beverage. CA fortified chocolate oat milk contained fourteen polyphenols. Increasing the concentration of microencapsulated CA led to an increase in the polyphenol content of the beverage. Among the identified polyphenols, asiatic acid and asiaticoside stood out as the unique and most abundant compounds in CA (p < 0.05). Additionally, the incorporation of cocoa powder into the beverage further contributed to the polyphenol content, introducing bioactive compounds such as benzoic acid, caffeic acid, catechin, chlorogenic acid, kaempferol, luteolin, madecassic acid, p-coumaric acid, and quercetin. Evaluation of consumer acceptability revealed that chocolate oat milk beverages containing 2% and 4% microencapsulated CA were liked by consumers. However, beverages with higher concentrations of CA were perceived as less acceptable, characterized by grassy, bitter, and earthy attributes. In conclusion, this study demonstrates the potential of microencapsulated CA as a functional ingredient in chocolate oat milk beverages. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This study reveals new insights on the microencapsulation of bioactive compounds in CA, proposing its potential as a novel functional ingredient in food and beverage applications in Western markets. The study revealed microencapsulated CA retained polyphenols in CA including asiatic acid and asiaticoside responsible for its bioactive properties. Consumer perception of CA added to oat milk revealed that it can be added at an acceptable level of 4%; however, higher amounts can decrease consumer acceptability. As practitioners explore the incorporation of CA as a functional component in food products, it is crucial to explore preservation techniques for the sensitive bioactive components while balancing the optimal amount of CA to enhance overall consumer liking.

Abstract
Sensitive substances have attracted wide attention due to their rich functional activities, such as antibiosis activities, antioxidant activities and prevent disease, etc. However, the low stability of sensitive substances limits their bioavailability and functional activities. Protein-based microcapsules can encapsulate sensitive substances to improve their adverse properties due to their good stability, strong emulsifying ability and wide source. Therefore, it is necessary to fully elaborate and summarize protein-based microcapsules to maximize their potential benefits in nutritional interventions. The focus of this review is to highlight the classification of protein-based microcapsules. In addition, the principles, advantages and disadvantages of preparation methods for protein-based microcapsules are summarized. Some novel preparation methods for protein-based microcapsules are also emphasized. Moreover, the mechanism of protein-based microcapsules that release sensitive substances in vitro is elucidated and summarized. Furthermore, the applications of protein-based microcapsules are outlined. Protein-based microcapsules can effectively encapsulate sensitive substances, which improve their bioavailability, and provide protective effects during storage and gastrointestinal digestion. In addition, microcapsules can improve the sensory quality of food and enhance its stability. The performance of protein-based microcapsules for delivering sensitive substances is influenced by factors such as protein type, the ratio between protein ratio and the other wall material, the preparation process, etc. Future research should focus on the new composite protein-based microcapsule delivery system, which can be applied to in vivo research and have synergistic effects and precise nutritional functions. In summary, protein-based microcapsules have broader research prospects in the functional foods and nutrition field.

Abstract
Due to their excellent emulsification, biocompatibility, and biological activity, proteins are widely used as microcapsule wall materials for encapsulating drugs, natural bioactive substances, essential oils, probiotics, etc. In this review, we summarize the protein-based microcapsules, discussing the types of proteins utilized in microcapsule wall materials, the preparation process, and the main factors that influence their properties. Additionally, we conclude with examples of the vital role of protein-based microcapsules in advancing the food industry from primary processing to deep processing and their potential applications in the biomedical, chemical, and textile industries. However, the low stability and controllability of protein wall materials lead to degraded performance and quality of microcapsules. Protein complexes with polysaccharides or modifications to proteins are often used to improve the thermal instability, pH sensitivity, encapsulation efficiency and antioxidant capacity of microcapsules. In addition, factors such as wall material composition, wall material ratio, the ratio of core to wall material, pH, and preparation method all play critical roles in the preparation and performance of microcapsules. The application area and scope of protein-based microcapsules can be further expanded by optimizing the preparation process and studying the microcapsule release mechanism and control strategy.

Abstract
Flavors are considered among the most important components of food formulations since they can predominantly affect the consumer acceptance and satisfaction. However, most flavors are highly volatile and inherently sensitive to pH, light, thermal processes, and chemical reactions such as oxidation and hydrolysis. Encapsulation is used as an effective strategy for protecting flavors from environmental conditions and extending their shelf life. Moreover, release characteristics of flavors can be modified via application of appropriate carriers and wall materials. This review focuses on the use of encapsulated flavors in various food products. Various factors affecting flavor retention during encapsulation, flavor release mechanisms, profiles and kinetics are discussed. Finally, the challenges associated with the use of encapsulated flavors in food products (in situ) and to model systems (in vitro), their storage stability, product requirements and problems related to the market are presented.

Microencapsulation of Olive Oil by Dehydration of Emulsion: Effects of the Emulsion Formulation and Dehydration Process. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:657. [PMID: 37370587 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10060657] [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: 04/11/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Microencapsulation of extra virgin olive oil has been taken into consideration. Initially, emulsions were prepared using extra virgin olive oil and aqueous solutions of different proportions of maltodextrin (MD) having dextrose equivalent (DE) 19 and whey protein isolates (WPI), such as 100% MD, 100% WPI, 25% MD + 75% WPI, 50% MD + 50% WPI and 75% MD + 25% WPI. Subsequently, emulsions were used for dehydration by either spray-drying (SD) or freeze-drying (FD) to produce olive oil microcapsules. Emulsion stability, viscosity and droplet size influenced the characteristics of the microcapsules. The highest encapsulation efficiency was achieved using 50% MD + 50% WPI in the emulsions with subsequent SD. The moisture content of the microcapsules increased with increasing proportions of MD. The size of the microcapsules increased with increasing proportions of WPI. The bulk density and tapped density were reduced with higher proportions of MD in the microcapsules. Furthermore, microcapsules with a higher proportion of MD exhibited poor flowability and high cohesiveness. Microcapsules from the higher proportion MD emulsions, followed by SD were spherical with a smooth surface; however, microcapsules with dent structures were produced from 100% WPI in the emulsions with subsequent SD. Microcapsules, produced from emulsions with a higher proportion of WPI, followed by FD were flat flakes and had irregular surfaces.

Abstract
The potential of the (25R)-Spirost-5-en-3β-ol (diosgenin) is underutilized due to its astringent mouthfeel and aftertaste. To make the consumption more, this research rivets over the use of suitable techniques for encapsulating the diosgenin to use its health benefits for preventing the health disorders. The (25R)-Spirost-5-en-3β-ol(diosgenin) is gaining popularity in the food market by proving its potential health benefits. This study rivets over the encapsulation of diosgenin due to its high bitter taste which restricts its incorporation in functional foods. Maltodextrin and whey protein concentrates were used as the carrier for encapsulating diosgenin at varying concentrations from 0.1 to 0.5 % and evaluated for powder properties. The optimal conditions were obtained based on the most suited data ranged from the selected properties for the powder. The spray dried 0.3% diosgenin powder produced most suitable properties for powder recovery, encapsulation efficiency, moisture content, water activity, hygroscopicity, and particle size as 51.69-72.18%, 54.51-83.46%, 1.86-3.73%, 0.38-0.51, 10.55-14.08% and 40.38-88.02 μm respectively. The significance of this study relies on the more and better utilization of the fenugreek diosgenin in edible form by masking the bitterness. After encapsulation the spray dried diosgenin is more accessible in powder format with edible maltodextrin and whey protein concentrate. The spray dried diosgenin powder could be a potential agent that fulfils nutritional demands along with protection from some chronic health perturb.

Food Res Int 2023; 167:112632. [PMID: 37087228 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112632] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2022] [Revised: 11/20/2022] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023]
Abstract
L-menthol-containing food products generally show the flavor loss during storage due to their high volatility. The hydrophobicity of L-menthol also causes the inadequate flavor release during rehydration. In this study, the stability of L-menthol was enhanced by microencapsulation and the effect of different powder drying techniques was also investigated. The highest efficiency (76.58-78.66 %) and loading content (18.58-28.35 mg/g) of encapsulations were obtained by using a mass ratio of 2:1(α-LA: GA). Then they were dried by non-thermal spray freeze drying (SFD) technique compared to spray drying (SD) and freeze-drying (FD) process. The SFD particles were shown to be spherical and porous with the highest porosity (86.82 %). α-LA/GA based microparticles with spherical shapes were demonstrated to largely enhance flavor retention during high humidity storage. In addition, the porous structures of SFD powders could cause rapid rehydration in liquid models, and the release behaviors of loaded L-menthol followed the Fickian diffusion. Consequently, the SFD technique shows great potential to produce microparticles by regulating the release behaviors of L-menthol during storage and rehydration.

Abstract
Isoelectrically precipitated chickpea protein isolate (CPI) and its combination with maltodextrin (MD) were investigated for the ability to form and stabilize cumin seed oil emulsions. Solubility, net surface charge, emulsion activity/stability indices, and creaming stability of CPI at a pH of 3.0-9.0 were evaluated. Optimum conditions for minimum cream separation were identified as: 0.19% CPI and 6.83% oil concentrations. Cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) seed essential oil was microencapsulated within the CPI-MD matrix via spray drying. Effects of CPI-MD matrix formulation on the physicochemical characteristics and volatile composition of the microencapsules were investigated. CPI-MD matrices had positive effects on microcapsule properties such as relatively lower surface oil, higher encapsulation efficiency (EE), and oil retention. Approximately 86.6-96.4% oil retention and 90.9-98.4% EE were achieved. Optimum conditions for maximized oil retention (92.9%) and EE (98.6%) were identified as: 2.1% CPI, 14.8% essential oil, and 35% MD. GC-MS analysis of microcapsules was carried out to determine the changes in volatile composition during spray drying. Cymene, α-pinene, β-pinene, sabinene, terpinene, terpineol, phellandrene, and cumin aldehyde were determined as the major components. Optimized design showed the highest EE and minimal changes in the volatile composition of cumin seed essential oil.

Abstract
Flavour is an important component that impacts the quality and acceptability of new functional foods. However, most flavour substances are low molecular mass volatile compounds, and direct handling and control during processing and storage are made difficult due to susceptibility to evaporation, and poor stability in the presence of air, light, moisture and heat. Encapsulation in the form of micro and nano technology has been used to address this challenge, thereby promoting easier handling during processing and storage. Improved stability is achieved by trapping the active or core flavour substances in matrices that are referred to as wall or carrier materials. The latter serve as physical barriers that protect the flavour substances, and the interactions between carrier materials and flavour substances has been the focus of many studies. Moreover, recent evidence also suggests that enhanced bioavailability of flavour substances and their targeted delivery can be achieved by nanoencapsulation compared to microencapsulation due to smaller particle or droplet sizes. The objective of this paper is to review several relevant aspects of physical-mechanical and physicochemical techniques employed to stabilize flavour substances by encapsulation. A comparative analysis of the physiochemical characterization of encapsulates (particle size, surface morphology and rheology) and the main factors that impact the stability of encapsulated flavour substances will also be presented. Food applications as well as opportunities for future research are also highlighted.

Abstract
Yak butter's high unsaturated fatty acid level predisposes it to oxidation, hence must be converted into more stable forms like powder. This study aimed to spray dry yak butter using 10% yak butter and four sodium caseinate (NaCas) formulations: sample A: 100% NaCas; sample B: 50% NaCas, 50% lactose; sample C: 75% NaCas, 25% lactose; and sample D: 25% NaCas, 75% maltodextrin. The powders were vacuum and hermetically sealed, and evaluated for oxidative stability, physical and sensory properties during storage at 65 ℃ for 30 days. The results showed that samples B and D had similar and most favorable physical properties (such as, moisture, water activity, particle size, bulk density re-dispersion time, and encapsulation efficiency); though sample B, together with sample C, browned the most during storage. The majority of the sensory panelists preferred samples B and D; observed high caking in samples C and B; and the least whiteness loss and caking in samples D and A but high off-flavors in samples A and C. After storage, peroxide and thiobarbituric acid values of powder samples ranged from 34.98 to 69.54 meqO2/kg and 1.85-9.43 mg MD/kg, respectively, in the decreasing order of A, C, B, and D. Sample D, followed by B, showed the highest radical scavenging activity. Therefore, for optimum yak butter powder physical properties and oxidative stability, 50%:50%, NaCas: lactose, and 25%:75%, NaCas: maltodextrin formulations should be used. This study provides essential knowledge for butter powder processors.

The Physicochemical Properties and Antioxidant Activity of Spirulina ( Artrhospira platensis) Chlorophylls Microencapsulated in Different Ratios of Gum Arabic and Whey Protein Isolate. Foods 2022; 11:foods11121809. [PMID: 35742007 PMCID: PMC9223014 DOI: 10.3390/foods11121809] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2022] [Revised: 06/10/2022] [Accepted: 06/17/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Spirulina (Artrhospira platensis) is rich in chlorophylls (CH) and is used as a potential natural additive in the food industry. In this study, the CH content was extracted from spirulina powder after ultrasound treatment. Microcapsules were then prepared at different ratios of gum Arabic (GA) and whey protein isolate (WPI) through freeze-drying to improve the chemical stability of CH. As a result, a* and C* values of the microcapsules prepared from GA:WPI ratios (3:7) were −8.94 ± 0.05 and 15.44 ± 0.08, respectively. The GA fraction increased from 1 to 9, and encapsulation efficiency (EE) of microcapsules also increased by 9.62%. Moreover, the absorption peaks of CH at 2927 and 1626 cm−1 in microcapsules emerged as a redshift detected by FT-IR. From SEM images, the morphology of microcapsules changed from broken glassy to irregular porous flake-like structures when the GA ratio increased. In addition, the coated microcapsules (GA:WPI = 3:7) showed the highest DPPH free radical scavenging activity (SADPPH) (56.38 ± 0.19) due to low moisture content and better chemical stability through thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Conclusively, GA and WPI coacervates as the wall material may improve the stability of CH extracted from spirulina.
