Abstract
Goat milk gels (GMGs) are popular food due to their high water content, low-calorie density, appealing taste, texture enhancers, stability, and satiety-enhancing characteristics, making them ideal for achieving food security and zero hunger. The GMGs were optimized using the central composite design matrix of response surface methodology using goat milk powder (35-55 g), whole milk powder (10-25 g), and potato powder (10-15 g) as independent variables. In contrast, complex modulus, flow stress, and forward extrudability were chosen as dependent variables. The maximum value of complex modulus 33670.9 N, good flow stress 7863.6 N, and good extrudability 65.32 N was achieved under optimal conditions. The optimized goat milk gel was fortified with ascorbic acid-coated iron oxide nanoparticle (magnetic nature) decorated alginate-chitosan nanoparticles (AA-MNP@CANPs), making it nutritionally rich in an economically feasible way-the decorated AA-MNP@CANPs characterized for size, shape, crystallinity, surface charge, and optical characteristics. Finally, the optimized fortified smart GMGs were further characterized via Scanning electron microscopy, Rheology, Texture profile analysis, Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR), and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The fortified smart GMGs carry more nutritional diversity, targeted iron delivery, and the fundamental sustainability development goal of food security.

Abstract
Saturated fatty acid-containing lipids, such as milkfat, may protect long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in fish oil when blended together into solid lipid particles (SLPs). One of the main challenges of SLPs is structural polymorphism, which can lead to expulsion of the protected component during prolonged storage. To investigate this phenomenon, the change in thermal and crystalline behaviours, and fatty acid distribution, were analysed in SLPs of fish oil and milkfat during storage at different temperatures for up to 28 days. X-ray diffraction analysis showed changes in molten and crystalline states occurred even at -22 °C. Room temperature (21 °C) storage led to more than 45% molten state but SLPs retained their initial shape. Confocal Raman Spectroscopy of the SLPs showed the distribution of fatty acids was not uniform, with 10 μm outermost layer of predominantly saturated fatty acids likely responsible for the intact SLP shape and stability of the core.

Physicochemical Properties and Whey Proteomes of Camel Milk Powders Produced by Different Concentration and Dehydration Processes. Foods 2022; 11:foods11050727.

Abstract
Camel milk powder production is an alternative to preserve the perishable milk for later-date consumption. However, the impacts of dehydration processes on bioactive compounds in camel milk are largely unknown. Hence, the present study attempted to compare the physicochemical properties and protein profiles of camel milk powders produced by different concentration and dehydration processes. Six camel milk powders were produced by freeze- and spray-drying methods in conjunction with two liquid concentration techniques, namely spray dewatering and reverse osmosis. The results of proteomic analysis showed that direct freeze-dried camel milk powder had the least changes in protein profile, followed by direct spray-dried powder. The camel milk powders that underwent concentration processes had more profound changes in their protein profiles. Among the bioactive proteins identified, lactotransferrin and oxidase/peroxidase had the most significant decreases in concentration following processing. On the contrary, glycosylation-dependent cell adhesion molecule 1, peptidoglycan recognition protein 1, and osteopontin increased in concentration. The results revealed that direct freeze drying was the most ideal method for preserving the bioactive proteins during camel milk powder production. However, the freeze-drying technique has cost and scalability constraints, and the current spray-drying technique needs improvement to better retain the bioactivity of camel milk during powder processing.

Abstract
We applied the method of coarse-graining the intermolecular vibrations to molecular heterodimers assembled by double hydrogen bonding. This method is based on principal component analysis, by which the original atomic displacement vectors are projected onto a lower-dimensional space spanned by a basis set of translations, librations, and intramolecular vibrations of the constituent molecules. Compared with homodimers, the following points are particularly noted: (1) alignment of the constituent molecules in a non-symmetric atomic arrangement of the whole system and (2) the scheme of reordering the bases to construct an optimal coarse-grained space. We tested three schemes for reordering the intramolecular vibration vectors to determine that the best one is equivalent to size reduction based on the singular value decomposition. The coarse-graining analysis affords three parameters, Φintra, Φinter, and Φapp, which are relevant to the mechanical nature of the molecular assembly. The Φintra values account for the internal stiffness of molecules, while the Φinter values are true stiffness constants of the intermolecular force and show a good correlation with the association energies of the dimers. The Φapp values are the apparent intermolecular stiffness smaller than Φinter, as a result of compensation for neglecting intramolecular vibrations. All these values are consistent with each other under the coupled oscillator model, showing that the present coarse-graining analysis is valid for heterodimers as well as homodimers.

Abstract
The experiments reported in this study provided a more comprehensive insight into the effect of chemical composition on the crystallization behavior of milk fat (MF). MF was fractionated between 20 and 40 °C into nine fractions with different melting points and was first subjected to the heating step (L20, L30, L40, and S40) followed by the cooling phase (SS40, SL40, SS30, SL30, and LL40). Furthermore, the species of fatty acids (FAs) and triglycerides (TAGs) of the MF fractions were identified. The thermodynamics, crystallization behavior, and polymorphs were determined using differential scanning calorimetry, pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance, and X-ray diffraction, respectively. The results indicated that L40 yielded the highest percentage (∼35% of the total MF) of all the fractions. Enthalpies of the melting and crystallization processes of solid fat content in this study were related to the different FA and TAG compositions of MF and its fractions. High melting fractions (HMFs) were enriched with long-chain saturated fatty acids and tri-saturated (S3) TAGs, and low melting fractions (LMFs) were enriched with short-chain unsaturated FAs and tri-unsaturated (U3) TAGs. Moreover, the various nucleation mechanisms of MF fractions were identified according to the Avrami equation. The polymorphic transformation from a β' form of double chain length structures to a β form of triple chain length occurred in the native MF and HMFs, whereas the LMFs displayed almost no crystals. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This study represented the first time that nine fractions were obtained using MF fractionation via a heating step, followed by a cooling phase. Furthermore, the chemical composition of MF fractions was investigated. The results obtained from this study might be of specific value in understanding the functional properties of fat-based dairy food in both storage conditions and real-time applications.
