Article Synopsis
- Curcumin was encapsulated in a double-layer shell made from nano-sized cellulose and either native starch (MDC) or nano-sized starch (NDC) to enhance stability and mask bitterness.
- The study assessed encapsulation efficiency, with values of 97.11% for NDC and 90.46% for MDC, and employed FTIR to analyze structural changes in curcumin, indicating reduced intensity of curcumin peaks when encapsulated.
- The double-walled curcumin capsules were applied to fish fillets coated in starch paste, revealing a visible color change over 7 days in refrigerated storage, effectively signaling spoilage to consumers without needing to open the package.
