Article Synopsis
- - The study compared oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions with oleogel-in-water (Og/W) emulsions, finding that Og/W emulsions were more stable and had a better droplet distribution.
- - Oleogel emulsions with 3% hemp seed protein (HSP) showed enhanced resistance to environmental factors like heat and changes in pH, making them more stable than traditional O/W emulsions.
- - The research revealed that CBN in the Og/W emulsion had a long half-life of 131.82 days and that the emulsion significantly delayed the digestion of hemp seed oil, enhancing the bioaccessibility of Δ-THC and CBN.
Article Synopsis
- The study explored how dynamic high-pressure microfluidization (DHPM) affects soybean protein isolate-rutin (SPI-RT) complexes, revealing significant changes in the structure and properties of SPI at various pressures.
- Analysis indicated a reduction in α-helices and random curls, while β-sheet content increased, indicating a structural alteration in the SPI due to complexation with rutin (RT).
- Key findings included optimal complexation at 120 MPa, enhancements in total phenolic content and hydrophobicity, and improved microstructure, suggesting that DHPM effectively enhances SPI's physicochemical properties for potential applications.
Article Synopsis
- * Different ultrasonic power levels were tested, with 400 W yielding the best results in terms of particle size (146.86 nm), zeta potential (-20.7 eV), and protein content (61.91%).
- * The ultrasonic treatment significantly enhanced the emulsions' physicochemical properties, stability, and resistance to thermal, salt, pH, and oxidative conditions.
Emulsion stability and sustained-release can be improved with a non-covalent complexing of a soybean protein isolate (SPI) with -tannic acid (TA) and dynamic high-pressure microfluidization (DHPM). The microstructure, physicochemical properties, and interfacial properties were investigated. The properties of the DHPM-treated emulsions were improved significantly, with the 120 MPa DHPM-treated SPI-TA emulsion (SPI-TA 120) having the best microstructure.

- The study focuses on improving the solubility and functional properties of japonica rice bran protein (JRBP) by using ultrasound technology to create a JRBP-catechin (CC) complex.
- Significant differences were found between the structures and functionalities of JRBP-CC and indica rice bran protein (IRBP), with JRBP-CC showing better water holding capacity and emulsification performance.
- Optimal ultrasound conditions yielded the most effective results for JRBP-CC, including the smallest particle size, highest water and oil holding capacities, and improved emulsifying indices, along with notable antioxidant activity.
