Solubility of cellulose derivatives is a limited indicator of their function on retarding starch digestion.

Cellulose and its derivatives have been utilized as additives and functional fibers in food industries. The solubility has been traditionally used to categorize cellulose derivatives, whilst their complex effects within food matrix are less understood. In this study, insoluble forms i.

Marine phospholipid nanoliposomes: A promising therapeutic approach for inflammatory bowel disease: Preparation, safety, and efficacy evaluation.

Promising findings have been emerged from studies utilizing n3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) supplementation in animal models of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Introduction of marine phospholipids which combine n3 PUFA with phosphatidylcholine in a nanoliposome formulation offers enhanced pharmacological efficacy due to physical stability, improved bioavailability, and specific targeting to inflamed colitis tissues. In the present study, a marine phospholipid-based nanoliposome formulation was developed and optimized, resulting in nanovesicles of approximately 107.

Exploring the underlying mechanisms on starch restricted swelling-induced reduction in digestion rate of buckwheat noodles.

To elucidate the slower digestion rate of buckwheat starch in noodles-matrix, the digestion kinetics of Tartary (TBN) and common (CBN) buckwheat starch reconstituted noodles as well as wheat starch reconstituted noodles (WSN) were compared using a simulated oral-gastric-intestinal in vitro digestion. The swelling degree of starch in cooked noodles can be expressed by quantitative analysis of microstructure. The digestion rate of WSN was 2.

Modulating the glycemic response of starch-based foods using organic nanomaterials: strategies and opportunities.

Traditionally, diverse natural bioactive compounds (polyphenols, proteins, fatty acids, dietary fibers) are used as inhibitors of starch digestive enzymes for lowering glycemic index (GI) and preventing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In recent years, organic nanomaterials (ONMs) have drawn a great attention because of their ability to overcome the stability and solubility issues of bioactive. This review aimed to elucidate the implications of ONMs in lowering GI and as encapsulating agents of enzymes inhibitors.

Design, Preparation, and Evaluation of Enteric Coating Formulation of HPMC and Eudragit L100 on Carboxylated Agarose Hydrogel by Using Drug Tartrazine.

Enteric-coated application on drug is used to prevent the drug from inactivation which are degraded by gastric enzyme. The present study is aimed at achieving controlled drug delivery in acidic medium of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) by enteric coating of hydroxy propyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and Eudragit L100 on carboxylated agarose hydrogel, creating a pH-dependent delivery system. Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was for the detection of carboxylic group on agarose hydrogel, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used for the determination surface of prepared formulation.

Improvements of dried noodles qualities using two-stage resting: Explanation from macro and micro perspectives.

The purpose of this study was to elucidate the effects of two-stage resting (dough crumbs and dough sheets resting) on the quality of dried noodles. An improvement mechanism was explored according to the texture of dough sheets, gluten network, and microstructure of cooked noodles. After two-stage resting, the extensibility of dough sheets, the contents of glutenin macro polymer (GMP), and disulfide bonds (S-S) increased significantly (p < .

Encapsulation of phenolic compounds within food-grade carriers and delivery systems by pH-driven method: a systematic review.

In comparison to conventional encapsulation methods of phenolic compounds (PCs), pH-driven method is green, simple and requires low energy consumption. It has a huge potential for industrial applications, and can overcome more effectively the aqueous solubility, stability and bioavailability issues related to PCs by changing pH to induce the encapsulation of PCs. This review aims to shed light on the use of pH-driven method for encapsulating PCs.
