Abstract
The potential utilization of starch as a particle-based emulsifier in the preparation of Pickering emulsions is gaining interest within the food industry. Starch is an affordable and abundant functional ingredient, which makes it an excellent candidate for the stabilization of Pickering emulsions. This review article focuses on the formation, stabilization, and properties of Pickering emulsions formulated using starch-based particles and their derivatives. First, methods of isolating and modifying starch-based particles are highlighted. The key parameters governing the properties of starch-stabilized Pickering emulsions are then discussed, including the concentration, size, morphology, charge, and wettability of the starch-based particles, as well as the type and size of the oil droplets. The physicochemical mechanisms underlying the ability of starch-based particles to form and stabilize Pickering emulsions are also discussed. Starch-based Pickering emulsions tend to be more resistant to coalescence than conventional emulsions, which is useful for some food applications. Potential applications of starch-stabilized Pickering emulsions are reviewed, as well as recent studies on their gastrointestinal fate. The information provided may stimulate the utilization of starch-based Pickering emulsions in food and other industries.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 258:128992. [PMID: 38151085 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128992] [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: 08/30/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/29/2023]
Abstract
The emulsifying properties of emulsions are significantly influenced by the structural properties of octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) starch. The purpose of this work was to elucidate the effect of the structure of OSA starch on its performance as an emulsifier to stabilize Pickering high-internal-phase emulsions (HIPEs). The degrees of substitution (DS) of the three OSA starches were 0.0137, 0.0177 and 0.0236, and their degrees of branching (DB) were 13.96 %, 14.20 % and 14.32 % measured by 1H NMR, which were sequentially labeled as OSA1, OSA2, and OSA3. The OSA3 starch with higher DS and DB had a lower critical micelle concentration (CMC) (0.11 mg/mL). Its emulsification activity (EAI) and emulsion stability (ES) were 61.8 m2/g and 72.5 min, respectively, which were higher than OSA1 and OSA2 starches. The contact angle of the three OSA starches increased from 45.35° to 80.03° with increasing DS and DB. Therefore, it is hypothesized that OSA3 starches have better emulsification properties. The results of physical stability of HIPEs confirmed the above results. These results indicated that DS and DB have a synergistic effect on emulsion properties, and OSA starch with higher DS and DB values were more conducive to the construction of stable HIPEs systems.

Improved Viability of Probiotics via Microencapsulation in Whey-Protein-Isolate-Octenyl-Succinic-Anhydride-Starch-Complex Coacervates. Molecules 2023; 28:5732. [PMID: 37570702 PMCID: PMC10420251 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28155732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to microencapsulate probiotic bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus 11073) using whey-protein-isolate (WPI)-octenyl-succinic-anhydride-starch (OSA-starch)-complex coacervates and to investigate the effects on probiotic bacterial viability during spray drying, simulated gastrointestinal digestion, thermal treatment and long-term storage. The optimum mixing ratio and pH for the preparation of WPI-OSA-starch-complex coacervates were determined to be 2:1 and 4.0, respectively. The combination of WPI and OSA starch under these conditions produced microcapsules with smoother surfaces and more compact structures than WPI-OSA starch alone, due to the electrostatic attraction between WPI and OSA starch. As a result, WPI-OSA-starch microcapsules showed significantly (p < 0.05) higher viability (95.94 ± 1.64%) after spray drying and significantly (p < 0.05) better protection during simulated gastrointestinal digestion, heating (65 °C/30 min and 75 °C/10 min) and storage (4/25 °C for 12 weeks) than WPI-OSA-starch microcapsules. These results demonstrated that WPI-OSA-starch-complex coacervates have excellent potential as a novel wall material for probiotic microencapsulation.
