Abstract
The development of stable water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsions for edible preservation coatings and films, utilizing their properties, deserves scientific attention. In this study, oregano essential oil and D‑sodium erythorbate were simultaneously loaded into W/O/W emulsions, and the homogenization conditions of the W/O/W emulsions were optimized. The structure and interactions of gum Arabic (GA) and whey protein isolate (WPI) as the outer phase were analyzed. Stable W1/O/W2 emulsions with excellent antimicrobial and antioxidant activities could be produced under the conditions of GA: WPI at 1:1 and W2: W1/O at 5:5. The diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzenthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging rates were 86.35 % and 89.35 %, and the inhibition zone diameters for S. aureus and E. coli were 14.03 ± 0.42 mm and 14.17 ± 0.70 mm, respectively. Finally, the W1/O/W2 emulsions were successfully applied to prepare chitosan-based films. This study has the potential to promote the application of W/O/W emulsions in food preservation, emphasizing the need for advancements for real-world adaptability.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Biological Macromolecules is a well-established international journal dedicated to research on the chemical and biological aspects of natural macromolecules. Focusing on proteins, macromolecular carbohydrates, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, lignins, biological poly-acids, and nucleic acids, the journal presents the latest findings in molecular structure, properties, biological activities, interactions, modifications, and functional properties. Papers must offer new and novel insights, encompassing related model systems, structural conformational studies, theoretical developments, and analytical techniques. Each paper is required to primarily focus on at least one named biological macromolecule, reflected in the title, abstract, and text.
