Abstract
To surmount the limitation of the instability of the currently reported water-in-water (W/W) emulsions, novel W/W emulsionss were constructed using amylopectin (AMP) and tara gum (TG) as the phases, and differently shaped ovalbumin (OVA) particles were used as stabilizers to improve the stability of W/W emulsions. Experiments displayed that the conformation of OVA could be changed by heating treatment, thus forming fibrous or spherical OVA particles that had the potential to stabilize TG-in-AMP (TG/AMP) emulsions. The emulsions had the best stability when the pH was 4 and the concentration of OVA particles was 3 %. Moreover, since ovalbumin fibril (OVAF) had better adsorption at the water-water interface than ovalbumin sphere (OVAS), OVAF-stabilized TG/AMP emulsion (OF-TE) had a relatively denser interfacial layer and exhibited more satisfactory ionic stability and physical stability than OVAS-stabilized TG/AMP emulsion (OS-TE). The rheological results demonstrated that OVAF and OVAS had little effect on the viscosity of TG/AMP emulsions. In brief, OVAF was more effective in improving the stability of TG/AMP emulsions than OVAS, and OF-TE did not show phase separation for at least 5 days. This study may be of great significance in improving the stability of food-grade W/W emulsions.
期刊介绍:
Carbohydrate Polymers stands as a prominent journal in the glycoscience field, dedicated to exploring and harnessing the potential of polysaccharides with applications spanning bioenergy, bioplastics, biomaterials, biorefining, chemistry, drug delivery, food, health, nanotechnology, packaging, paper, pharmaceuticals, medicine, oil recovery, textiles, tissue engineering, wood, and various aspects of glycoscience.
The journal emphasizes the central role of well-characterized carbohydrate polymers, highlighting their significance as the primary focus rather than a peripheral topic. Each paper must prominently feature at least one named carbohydrate polymer, evident in both citation and title, with a commitment to innovative research that advances scientific knowledge.
