Contact angle measurements demonstrated enhanced hydrophobicity with rising daucosterol concentration, which favored stable water-in-oil emulsions. Rheological assessments confirmed strong thermal stability, robust mechanical properties, and partial thixotropic recovery at higher daucosterol levels. Additionally, daucosterol-stabilized emulsions showed remarkable stability through storage, freeze-thaw cycles, and heat treatments. This stability was attributed to dense, network-like structures that effectively inhibited phase separation and droplet coalescence. Molecular interaction simulations further supported the formation of stable complexes between daucosterol and γ-oryzanol, sustained by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces.

This study investigated the protein quality of three edible insect species—<em>Acheta domesticus</em> (house cricket), <em>Tenebrio molitor</em> (yellow mealworm), and <em>Locusta migratoria</em> (migratory locust). The results demonstrated that all insects are rich in protein, ranging from 67.49 to 72.36 g per 100 g of dry weight, with a complete profile of essential amino acids, notably high in leucine. The total protein digestibility, reflecting the percentage of absorbed protein, ranged from 74.47% to 85.18%, indicating efficient utilization by the human body. In order to provide a more comprehensive assessment of protein quality, this study employed the digestible indispensable amino acid score (DIAAS), offering a comprehensive approach to protein quality assessment based on the human body's requirements for essential amino acids. For DIAAS, three calculation methods were used, incorporating a universal conversion factor of 6.25, an insect-specific conversion factor of 5.33, and the sum of amino acids. Using a conversion factor of 5.33 for protein calculation resulted in higher DIAAS values than using a factor of 6.25.
