Abstract
This study demonstrated the commercialization potential of Rana chensinensis ovum protein isolates (RCOPI) by comparing it with commercially available proteins from physicochemical, structural, and functional properties to stabilizing Pickering emulsions. The size of RCOPI colloids nanoparticles reached 65 nm which is much smaller than the commercially available proteins. Besides, RCOPI exhibited incredible emulsion ability with the emulsion drop around 22 μm diameters and the zeta potential approximately − 50 mV. The emulsions stabilized by RCOPI showed remarkable stability and the Lactalysis index was about 21% after 100 days storage. In the encapsulation test, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed the size of the microcapsule ranging from 20 to 50 μm. The encapsulated efficiency of RCOPI stabilized emulsion was as good as the compared proteins, up to 75%. Furthermore, the results of the sensory evaluation showed that RCOPI stabilized emulsions received the highest approval ratings for appearance, taste, flavor and overall acceptability.
期刊介绍:
The FSB journal covers food chemistry and analysis for compositional and physiological activity changes, food hygiene and toxicology, food microbiology and biotechnology, and food engineering involved in during and after food processing through physical, chemical, and biological ways. Consumer perception and sensory evaluation on processed foods are accepted only when they are relevant to the laboratory research work. As a general rule, manuscripts dealing with analysis and efficacy of extracts from natural resources prior to the processing or without any related food processing may not be considered within the scope of the journal. The FSB journal does not deal with only local interest and a lack of significant scientific merit. The main scope of our journal is seeking for human health and wellness through constructive works and new findings in food science and biotechnology field.
