The effect of enriching virgin flaxseed oil with dodecyl gallate, hydroxytyrosol acetate or gamma-tocopherol on its in vitro digestion is studied by means of proton nuclear magnetic resonance and solid phase microextraction followed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The extent and pattern of the lipolysis reached in each sample is analyzed, as is the bioaccessibility of the main oil components. None of the phenolic compounds provokes inhibition of the lipase activity and all of them reduce the lipid oxidation degree caused by the in vitro digestion and the bioaccessibility of oxidation compounds. The antioxidant efficiency of the three tested phenols is in line with the number of phenolic groups in its molecule, and is dose-dependent. The concentration of some minor oil components such as terpenes, sesquiterpenes, cycloartenol and 24-methylenecycloartenol is not modified by in vitro digestion. Contrarily, gamma-tocopherol shows very low in vitro bioaccessibility, probably due to its antioxidant behavior, although this increases with enrichment of the phenolic compounds. Oxidation is produced during in vitro digestion even in the presence of a high concentration of gamma-tocopherol, which remains bioaccessible after digestion in the enriched samples of this compound.

Herein, we developed multifunctional hydrogels formed between soybean protein (SPI)-gallic acid conjugate and oxidized dextran (ODex) via a Schiff base reaction. The effects of ODex on the morphology, structure, and functional properties of the hydrogels were elucidated. The results showed that the crosslinking modes in the hydrogels include hydrogen bonding, Schiff bases, Michael addition, and π-π stacking.

We hypothesized that improving the fat globule structure of infant formulae based on the milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) would regulate metabolites and metabolic pathways, making it more similar to the metabolic properties of human milk. Therefore, we prepared infant formulae with different fat globule structures, including two model infant formulae (F1: fat globules surrounded by MFGM; F2: fat globules surrounded by protein) and one commercial infant formulae containing MFGM, and compared their metabolic differences with those of human milk. The number of differential metabolites between each sample and human milk reached 60 (F1), 132 (F2) and 126 (IF1).

As an essential B vitamin, folate participates in one‑carbon metabolism. The 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) avoids the drawbacks associated with folic acid and native folylpolyglutamate folate in food, thereby emerging as a superior alternative to folate supplement. To enhance the stability and digestibility of 5-MTHF, nanoliposome (NL) was modified using a layer-by-layer self-assembly method with chitosan (CH) and pectin (P).
