Starch-based particles as stabilizers for Pickering emulsions: modification, characteristics, stabilization, and applications.

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.

Amaranth proteins: From extraction to application as nanoparticle-based delivery systems for bioactive compounds.

Amaranth proteins can be produced more sustainably than animal proteins, and they have amino acid compositions that are nutritionally balanced, which makes them attractive candidates for various applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. This article provides an overview of the composition and techno-functional properties of amaranth protein, including its solubility, emulsification, gelation, foaming, and binding properties. These properties play an important role in the use of amaranth proteins for formulating nanoparticle-based delivery systems with good functional attributes.

Green leaf proteins: a sustainable source of edible plant-based proteins.

The rise in the global population, which is projected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, has resulted in an increased demand for proteins in the human diet. The green leaves of many plants are an affordable, abundant, and sustainable source of proteins suitable for human consumption.

Evaluating the traditional bread properties with new formula: Affected by triticale and cress seed gum.

During recent years, composite bread is more popular among consumers due to its functional and nutritional properties. Among cereals, triticale has been studied, along with careful observation of its characteristics. In addition, hydrocolloids can be replaced as an appropriate resource due to a decrease in the gluten content.
