Abstract
Functional, physicochemical, and rheological properties of protein-polysaccharide complexes are remarkably under the influence of the quality of solvent or cosolute in a food system. Here, a comprehensive description of the rheological properties and microstructural peculiarities of cress seed mucilage (CSM)-β-lactoglobulin (Blg) complexes are discussed in the presence of CaCl2 (2-10 mM), (CSM-Blg-Ca), and NaCl (10-100 mM) (CSM-Blg-Na). Our results on steady-flow and oscillatory measurements indicated that shear thinning properties can be fitted well by the Herschel-Bulkley model and by the formation of highly interconnected gel structures in the complexes, respectively. Analyzing the rheological and structural features simultaneously led to an understanding that formations of extra junctions and the rearrangement of the particles in the CSM-Blg-Ca could enhance elasticity and viscosity, as compared with the effect of CSM-Blg complex without salts. NaCl reduced the viscosity and dynamic rheological properties and intrinsic viscosity through the salt screening effect and dissociation of structure. Moreover, the compatibility and homogeneity of complexes were approved by dynamic rheometry based on the Cole-Cole plot supported by intrinsic viscosity and molecular parameters such as stiffness. The results outlined the importance of rheological properties as criteria for investigations that determine the strength of interaction while facilitating the fabrication of new structures in salt-containing foods that incorporate protein-polysaccharide complexes.

Abstract
Curcumin (Cur) and Melittin (Mel) are two natural extracts that have been shown anti-tumor effects. However, their applications are limited due to poor oral bioavailability and the lack of tumor-targeting property. Here, we developed a novel nanocomposite that enabled the co-delivery of Cur and Mel, which consists of α-lactalbumin protein nanotubes (NTs), positively charged N,N,N-trimethyl chitosan (TMC), and a tumor-targeting cyclic peptide iRGD. The results showed that NTs/Cur-TMC-Mel-iRGD incorporated the advantages of each component, for instance, effective compounds loading by NTs, improved cellular uptake by TMC, prolonged accumulation in tumors by iRGD as well as synergistic anti-tumor effects of Cur and Mel. In the tumor-bearing mice, NTs/Cur-TMC-Mel-iRGD treatment remarkably induced cancer cell apoptosis while inhibiting cell proliferation, leading to suppressed tumor growth. Besides, no obvious adverse effects were observed in the blood physiology and tissue histology. Overall, our study provided an effective strategy for co-delivering Cur and Mel, which has a potential for translational clinical research aiming to treat solid tumors.

Abstract
The associative phase behavior of cricket protein isolate (CPI) and sodium alginate (AL) in aqueous solutions was explored using turbidimetry, methylene blue spectroscopy, zeta potentiometry, dynamic light scattering, and confocal microscopy as a function of pH, biopolymer ratio, total biopolymer concentration (CT), and ionic strength. When both biopolymers had net-negative charges, soluble complexes formed between pH 6.0 and 8.0, however when both biopolymers had opposing net charges, insoluble complexes formed as complex coacervates below pH 5.5, defined as pHφ1, followed by precipitates below another critical pH 3.0 (pHp). Increasing the CPI:AL weight ratio or CT facilitated complex formation, and the addition of salts (NaCl/KCl) had a salt-enhancement and salt-reduction impact at low and high salt concentrations, respectively. Ionic interactions between oppositely charged CPI and AL were mainly responsible for the formation of their insoluble complexes, while hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions also played significant roles.

Abstract
Protein-polysaccharide complexes are commonly applied in different food products. Their interaction and their functional properties that arise as a consequence of interactions are remarkably influenced by the presence of co-solutes in the system. In this study, general rheological properties and the aggregation behavior of cress seed mucilage (CSM)-β-lactoglobulin (Blg) complexes were studied in the presence of sucrose (5-20% w/v) and lactose (5-20% w/v). The highest values of apparent viscosity and stability (zeta potential) in CSM-Blg complexes were measured when the medium contained 5% w/v lactose (10.00 Pa.s at 0.1 s-1, -25 ± 0.8 mV) and 20% w/v sucrose (12.89 Pa.s at 0.1 s-1, -35 ± 0.2 mV). The results of oscillatory experiments indicated that the gel-like feature of the complexes improved, parallel to a decrease in frequency, which highlighted the shear-induced gelation phenomenon. The thermal analysis test demonstrated that the thermal stability of Blg (70.5◦C), with its complexation to CSM, improved through denaturation. Also, the association of CSM-Blg (82◦C) nanocomplexes with lactose (96◦C) can enhance the thermal stability more effectively. Considering the widespread use of protein-polysaccharide complexes in diverse sugar-containing food formulations, the results of this study can contribute to the creation of new compounds with special techno-functional features.

In vitro antioxidant and antidiabetic activity of essential oils encapsulated in gelatin-pectin particles against sugar, lipid and protein oxidation and amylase and glucosidase activity. Food Sci Nutr 2020; 8:6457-6466. [PMID: 33312531 PMCID: PMC7723207 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.1935] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2020] [Revised: 09/16/2020] [Accepted: 09/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
The in vitro antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of Oliveria decumbens, Thymus kotschyanus, Trachyspermum ammi, and Zataria multiflora essential oils incorporated into gelatin-pectin composite were investigated. The gas chromatography-mass spectrometry characterization revealed that thymol (1.2%-86.4%), carvacrol (3.2%-52.4%), gamma-terpinene (0.0%-12.7%), para-cymene (3.2%-5.2%), geraniol (0.0%-14.5%), and spathulenol (0.0%-13.6%) are the major constituents of the essential oils. Gelatin-pectin composite incorporated with the essential oils exhibited acidic pH (2.40-3.04), low conductivity (265-278 µS/cm), low surface tension (19.0-23.5 mN/m), low Newtonian viscosity (23.7-28.5 mPa.s), negative zeta-potential (14.2-16.9 mV), and nanoscale particle size (313-336 nm). These rheological properties result in the production of globular gelatin-pectin nanoparticles with a size range of 500-700 nm. The FTIR spectra of gelatin-pectin and gelatin-pectin-essential oils to some extent were similar, suggesting the noncovalent interactions between them. Gelatin-pectin composite incorporated with the essential oils displayed antiglucose oxidation (130-150 µg/ml) antilipid peroxidation (120-130 µg/ml), antiprotein oxidation (150-168 µg/ml), and antiprotein glycation (145-170 µg/ml) as well as antiamylase (216-230 µg/ml), and antiglucosidase (212-238 µg/ml) activity. The essential oils strongly improved the antioxidant capacity of the gelatin-pectin composite so strongly which can be recommended as a natural compound for oxidative stress management.
