Summary: By adding nanoemulsions, the fat content in cookies can be reduced without compromising the desired properties. The cookies with nano-oil added had a higher spread ratio and lower hardness compared to the control group. The fatty acid composition in cookies changed with the addition of nano-oil, leading to improved sensory properties.

Summary: A fish oil nanoemulsion was developed to improve oral absorption and test anti-inflammatory effects, showing low polydispersity and stable droplets. The nanoemulsion did not affect cell viability, was kinetically incorporated into cells, and exhibited significantly shorter retention in the gastrointestinal region compared to free fish oil intake. In inflammatory tests, the nanoemulsion showed less neutrophil infiltration and reduced paw edema volume, indicating significant effectiveness in modulating inflammatory disorders.

Summary: This study focuses on the effects of emulsifiers on the physicochemical stability of oil-in-water nanoemulsions, considering factors such as preparation methods, nature, concentration, molecular weight, and type of the food matrix. Emulsifiers play a key role in the formation and stability of food emulsions through adsorption at the oil-water interface, contributing to the production of stable nanoemulsion-based structures. Further research is needed to identify novel emulsifiers or combinations for food applications.

Summary: In this study, flaxseed oil nanoemulsions were prepared using flaxseed oil as the embedding material and flaxseed gum as the sole emulsifier. The effects of storage temperature, pH, and NaCl concentration on the stability of the nanoemulsions were investigated. The results showed that temperature significantly influenced the stability, and higher temperatures resulted in decreased stability. The nanoemulsions were relatively stable at pH 5 and 7, but showed poor stability at pH 3 and alkaline conditions. Increasing ionic strength led to unstable aggregation. Overall, the stability of the flaxseed oil nanoemulsion was better at 4 degrees C, pH 5-7, and NaCl <200 mmol/L. These findings provide valuable information for the design and preparation of stable delivery systems for flaxseed oil in various industries.

Summary: The study showed that nanoemulsions prepared with grape seed and cinnamon essential oils significantly extended the shelf-life of flathead mullet fillets, inhibiting pH and TVB-N increases, and slowing down lipid oxidation and hydrolysis. Sensory evaluation demonstrated a shelf-life extension from 10 to 14 days compared to controls, while microbiological analysis revealed a shelf-life extension from 10 to 12 days with a reduction of microbiological contamination in both mesophilic and psychrotrophic bacteria.

Summary: This paper focuses on the application of high-pressure homogenisation (HPH) for emulsification of wheat germ oil (WGO) in water. The study found that increasing the operating pressure and lecithin ratio improved emulsion stability, while increasing the oil fraction had the opposite effect. A regression model was established to predict the particle size based on the technical conditions of emulsion.

Summary: Muscle foods are prone to spoilage, but the consumer trend is towards minimally processed foods preserved with natural preservatives. Nanoemulsion has gained importance for the preservation of muscle foods, as it utilizes natural extracts at lower concentration but higher preservative abilities. Nanoemulsion offers protection and longer bioavailability for active components. Novel techniques provide stability and desirable qualities to improve their impacts. Application of nanoemulsion enhances microbial safety and oxidative stability. This review provides updates on different methods for nanoemulsion formulation and successful application in muscle food preservation and shelf life extension.
