Summary: This study demonstrates the possibility of encapsulating resveratrol in emulsified oil droplets at high wall/core ratios. The optimal microcapsule with 1.75% surface oil was fabricated using 15% transglutaminase-crosslinked WPI (TGase-WPI) and 5% gum Arabic (GA). Resveratrol was mainly located in the protein matrix of the initial emulsion and reconstituted microcapsule. The effects of TGase-WPI/GA microcapsule and resveratrol co-encapsulation on DHA/EPA and lipid hydroperoxides/TBARS were different. The results highlight the potential use of spray-dried microcapsules as co-encapsulation carriers.

Summary: Encapsulation using whey protein and gum arabic as wall materials was used to protect chia oil from oxidation. The spray-drying and freeze-drying methods produced microcapsules with different powder characteristics. Microcapsules produced by spray drying had higher encapsulation efficiency compared to freeze drying. After 6 months of storage, the encapsulated powders had low acid and peroxide values, suggesting a successful encapsulation process to protect chia oil from oxidation.

Summary: In this study, fibrous aggregates consisting of whey protein isolate (WPI) and gum arabic (GA) with ferric ions were fabricated and thoroughly investigated. The study focused on the fibrillation process, morphology, secondary structure, driving force, iron release in simulated gastrointestinal phase, and sensory properties of the WPI/GA(Fe3+) fibrils. The results showed promising potential for the application of WPI/GA(Fe3+) fibrils in iron fortification in the food industry, as they exhibited favorable fibrillation conditions, desirable morphology, delayed iron release in the gastric phase, increased sensory scores, and high potential for absorption in the duodenum.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of heat treatment on the complex coacervation behavior of whey isolate protein (WPI) with gum arabic (GA). The results show that heat treatment increases the surface charge of WPI, reduces the saturated adsorption concentration of GA, and enhances the sensitivity of the complex coacervation reaction to salt ions. The formation of coacervates is confirmed to be the result of electrostatic interactions.

Summary: This study investigated the potential of whey protein isolate-gum Arabic Maillard conjugates (WPIGA-C) as emulsifiers for stabilizing high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) and preparing HIPEs with improved properties for personalized functional foods and 3D printing. The results showed that the concentration of WPIGA-C and oil mass fraction had significant effects on the properties of HIPEs. HIPEs stabilized with 3% WPIGA-C and 80% oil mass fraction exhibited better properties compared to lower concentrations of WPIGA-C and oil mass fractions. WPIGA-C could be used to prepare stable HIPEs as potential inks for 3D printing.

Summary: Mixtures of mucin and pectin were studied for their phase stability at different ratios and pH values. Lower pH enhanced aggregation and sedimentation of mucin, while no phase separations were observed. The particle sizes measured by dynamic light scattering correlated with the absorbance values, indicating phase separations at a few hundred nm scale. Rheological studies showed that the viscosity decreased with mucin substitution, suggesting changes in the space occupancy and self-assembled structures. Comparison with other hydrocolloids indicated similar behavior in the presence of mucin. These findings provide insights into the coexistence of food polysaccharides and mucin in oral and gastrointestinal environments.

Summary: The events before and during the merging of a model liquid food emulsion with saliva were observed ex vivo using confocal microscopy. Within seconds, millimeter-sized drops of liquid food and saliva come into contact, deform, and eventually collapse, resulting in the merging of the two phases, resembling coalescing emulsion droplets. The model droplets then enter saliva. Based on this, there are two distinct stages for the introduction of liquid food into the oral cavity: an initial stage where both intact phases coexist, with individual viscosities and saliva-liquid food tribology being important for texture perception; and a second stage dominated by the rheological properties of the liquid food-saliva mixture. The importance of surface properties of saliva and liquid food is highlighted as they may affect the merging of the two phases.

Summary: Polyphenols and pectin were obtained from peach flesh using microwave extraction, and the extracts were used to functionalize strained yogurt gels. The extraction process was optimized using a Box-Behnken design and the extracts were analyzed for soluble solid content, total phenolic content, and particle size distribution. The extracts with the highest microwave power resulted in less firm gel samples due to the loss of conformation and self-assembly of the extracted pectins.

Summary: This study investigates the emulsification capacity of aqueous extracts from white beans and explores the relationship between the composition and structure of the extracts' macromolecular components and their emulsification ability. The results suggest that proteins and smaller molecules adsorb onto oil-water interfaces, providing emulsification capacity at different pH levels. Unabsorbed polysaccharides cause depletion flocculation. The findings are supported by various analytical techniques.

Summary: This study explores the formation of saliva foam and the influence of simulated foods on the foamy state. Researchers found that air bubbles and foam state in saliva may be intrinsic colloidal properties, impacting its physiological and physicochemical definition and role. The synergistic effects between mucin and food protein in foams, as well as their stability, are discussed in relation to water-air dynamic interfacial tension and confocal microscopy observations. Additionally, the study examines the replacement of mucin with caseinate in high internal gas volume fraction foams, with sodium caseinate producing thicker foams and mucin contributing to higher long-term stability. These findings are discussed in the context of the temporal evolution of foam during oral processing of foods.

Summary: Crosslinking affects the mechanical behavior and tissue metabolism of collagen-based tissues. Aging and diabetes alter the crosslinking type and density, thus changing tissue properties. High-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking and advanced-glycation end-products result in uniform deformation under daily activity, while low-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking does not. High-connectivity model displays more sliding, while AGEs induce instability in structures near the binding sites.
