Summary: Probiotics, such as Lactobacillus plantarum, have low survival rates due to external conditions. However, encapsulating them in alginate-whey protein isolate and alginate-pectin-whey protein isolate composites can greatly improve their survival rates during digestion, storage, and freeze-drying. These composites protect the viability of probiotics in the gastric fluid and release them in the intestinal fluid. The encapsulated probiotics also show improved storage stability and higher survival rates after freeze-drying.

Summary: The research used an in vitro infant digestive static model to investigate the digestibility of whey protein isolate-lactose (WPI-Lac). The results showed that WPI-Lac was completely digested after 5 minutes of gastric digestion, while WPI was not digested within 60 minutes. The beta-lactoglobulin of WPI-Lac was found to be similar to that of WPI at pH 3.0. After 60 minutes of duodenal digestion at pH 6.5, WPI-Lac was completely digested, and the alpha-lactalbumin of WPI decreased. The peptides identified were similar to 2 kilodalton (kDa) in conjugated protein, indicating a high level of protein degradation due to hydrolysis.

Summary: This study aimed to improve the encapsulation efficiency of solid fat for probiotics during spray drying. The encapsulation was achieved by forming coacervates using whey protein isolate-high melting point fat shortening oil (SO) and gum arabic. The addition of SO reduced the temperature of microcapsules without affecting the drying rate. The formulated microcapsules showed the highest survival rate and cell integrity during storage.

Summary: This study aimed to improve the stability of anthocyanins and phenolic acids in blueberry by forming hydrogen bonds or hydrophobic interactions with whey protein during lactic acid fermentation. The characteristics of the whey protein and blueberry juice system were significantly altered after fermentation using Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus casei, resulting in stable color and phenol content. Fluorescence and FTIR analysis showed that anthocyanins or phenolic hydroxyl groups of blueberry bind to N-H, C-N, and C = O groups of whey protein after fermentation.

Summary: This study developed interesting color-changing materials for 4D printing based on thermal response stimuli by introducing nano-embedding technology and catalytic infrared drying (CID) method, which provided a more reliable curcumin stabilization scheme and efficient post-treatment process in food 4D printing system. The addition of curcumin-whey protein isolate nanoparticles (C-WPI-NPs) to the printing ink enhanced the water-holding capacity and viscosity, resulting in excellent elastic solid-like behavior of the ink. The CID method showed better color change uniformity and higher retention rate of curcumin compared to microwave drying (MD) and hot air drying (HAD), and exhibited superior antioxidant capacity.

Summary: Carrier-free curcumin nanoparticles (CFC NPs) were prepared by adding the DMSO solution of Cur into DI water under continuous rapid stirring. The CFC NPs exhibited a spherical shape with a diameter of 65.25 +/- 2.09 nm (PDI = 0.229 +/- 0.107) and a high loading capacity (LC) of 96.68 +/- 0.03%. Furthermore, the CFC NPs significantly improved the water dispersibility and release of Cur in vitro, and showed significantly enhanced DPPH radical scavenging activity. These results suggest that CFC NPs could be a promising vehicle for widening the applications of Cur in the food industry.

The results showed that the permeability of glucose solution increased with concentration, while the absorption rate of DHA microcapsules was low. The absorption rate was also influenced by the release of free fatty acids from the microcapsules.

Summary: The large deformation of an elastic hollow ellipsoid was investigated as a flowmeter mechanism. Relationships were found between pressure drop, deformation, flowrate, and fluid viscosity. The experiment used a silicone hollow ellipsoid with dimensions of 0.05 m (long axis), 0.03 m (short axis), and a wall thickness of 3.5 x 10(-4) +/- 4.6 x 10(-5) m. A monotonic relationship was observed between flowrate and the ellipsoid's representative diameter. The effect of viscosity on flowrate was inconclusive, but the sensitivity of the ellipsoid's expansion to spatial variations in wall thickness was noted.

Summary: The effects of casein-to-whey ratios in fermented milk on gastric emptying, proteolysis and intestinal peptidome were investigated using an in vitro dynamic stomach-intestine system mimicking pre-school children digestion. The research found that the gastric emptying rate varied insignificantly among the milk samples. After 120 min digestion, the highest extent of proteolysis was observed at a casein-to-whey ratio of 2:1 due to the fewest gastric protein aggregates and relatively abundant caseins. Intestinal peptides derived from caseins or whey proteins showed a positive correlation with their parent protein content. The most abundant bioactive whey peptides were found at a casein-to-whey ratio of 1:1.5 after intestinal digestion. These findings demonstrated the importance of protein compositions in fermented milk on gastrointestinal proteolysis and peptide release in vitro, which is meaningful for future development of milk products that are more suitable for children.

Summary: This study investigates the variations in lipid digestion profiles among individuals of different ages using in vitro digestion models. The findings suggest that adults have a more comprehensive lipid digestion compared to infants, and infants tend to release shorter chain length and more saturated free fatty acids during digestion. Additionally, the particle sizes in the stomach of the elderly were consistently larger. This study enhances our understanding of how lipids with different degrees of unsaturation undergo digestion in diverse age groups.

Summary: This study investigated the acidification of aroma-enhanced black tea during storage. Analysis of non-volatile substances and organic acids using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS and HPLC revealed a decrease in soluble sugars and amino acids, while an increase in organic acids such as oxalic acid, malic acid, and quinic acid. In vitro experiments further demonstrated that the acidification is a result of the decomposition of sugars and amino acids by heating, as well as the oxidation of aromatic aldehydes. Additionally, the study showed that the taste composition of tea infusion is altered, with reduced amino acids, catechins, soluble sugars, and flavonoids. This research provides a theoretical basis for improving the quality of black tea.
