Modified porous starch (PS), by introducing octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) moieties, was synthesized successfully, which was applied as an emulsion of β-carotene for the first time. The pores and channels within porous starch provided more possibilities for OSA to modify starch. The ester linkage of OSA modified PS with different degrees of substitution (DS) were confirmed by both C solid-state NMR and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The hydrophobic octenyl succinic and hydrophilic hydroxyl groups of OSA modified PS showed the good emulsifying capability, which could be utilized to prepare β-carotene emulsions. And the bioaccessibility of β-carotene was also enhanced with increasing DS of OSA modified starch. This study not only paves a new way using porous starches for modification of starch, but also offers an attractive alternative for obtaining emulsion-based delivery systems for bioactive components.

In this study, octenyl succinic acid sodium starch (OSAS) decorated with chitosan (CS) of different molecular weights (50-150 kDa) and concentrations (10-30 mg/mL) was used to stabilize an emulsion coencapsulating with vitamin A (V) and vitamin D (V). The effect of CS decoration on the thermal and UV stability of the emulsion, as well as the underlying mechanism, was elucidated. The incorporation of CS increased the retention rates of V and V by 11.

The study involves the modification of a non-conventional starch isolated from the under-utilized variety of Chinese water chestnut (CWC (Eleocharis tuberosa) and integrating it to fabricate stabilized and curcumin-enriched Pickering emulsions with enhanced bioavailability, thermal stability, and retention of encapsulated curcumin. A time-efficient, semi-dried esterification method was used to prepare modified amphiphilic starches using 3, 6, or 9 % (w/v) octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) and characterized through degree of substitution (DS), contact angle, particle size, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and in-vitro digestibility. Moreover, Pickering emulsions were formulated using CWCS-OSA at 3 %, 6 %, or 9 % concentrations to serve as a carrier for curcumin to improve its water solubility and storage stability.

A novel starch-based emulsion gel was designed via octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) esterification, ozone oxidation, and ion (Ca) induction. The gel properties and low-temperature stability of emulsion gel with different oxidation time (0, 5, 10, 15, 25 min; OW-0, 5, 10, 15, 25) were systematically investigated. FTIR revealed that the oxidation of CC and -OH groups in OW-0 by ozone oxidation led to their cleavage into carbonyl groups, and than transformed to carboxyl groups.

The stabilizing effect of biopolymers on Pickering emulsions has attracted widespread interest in recent years. In this study, the interactions between chitosan (CS) and octenyl succinic anhydride starch (OS) were investigated and used to modulate the interfacial properties of Pickering emulsions, which are crucial for determining emulsion stability. CS/OS complex particles were prepared via electrostatic and hydrogen-bonding interactions and used to stabilize Pickering emulsions for the encapsulation of astaxanthin (AST).

The aim of this study was to investigate the Octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) modification and nanonization of Cyperus esculentus starch (CES) on its physicochemical properties. Cyperus esculentus starch nanoparticles (SNPs) were prepared by nanoprecipitation method and modified with OSA. The results showed that the average particle size of the prepared SNPs was 125.
