The Maillard reaction occurs between reducing sugars and amino acids during thermal treatment of foods and beverages, with the final steps resulting in the formation of melanoidins, brown/black-colored, nitrogen-containing, high molecular weight polymers. In addition, (poly)phenols in plant-based foods can become incorporated into melanoidins and affect their properties. Since both melanoidins and (poly)phenols exhibit some overlapping biological properties, it is difficult to determine the relative contribution of each, and so we highlight various analytical methods able to separate them.

Over the past 5 years, there has been a growing number of studies reporting the preparation of bioactive nanoparticles using pH-driven methods. However, the materials employed must possess pH-dependent solubility and high stability under varying acidic and basic conditions, which remains a significant limitation for the broader application and commercialization of pH-driven techniques. To surmount this restriction, it is imperative to optimize the pH-driven process, such as by incorporating stabilizers, identifying more optimal acidification points, and utilizing advanced acid–base regulators. Among these approaches, the combination of pH-driven technology with other techniques may prove to be a pivotal direction for advancing and promoting pH-driven technology. A comprehensive examination of the underlying mechanisms of pH-driven technology and a continuous process of optimization are fundamental to the advancement of pH-driven technology.
