Abstract
Due to their excellent emulsification, biocompatibility, and biological activity, proteins are widely used as microcapsule wall materials for encapsulating drugs, natural bioactive substances, essential oils, probiotics, etc. In this review, we summarize the protein-based microcapsules, discussing the types of proteins utilized in microcapsule wall materials, the preparation process, and the main factors that influence their properties. Additionally, we conclude with examples of the vital role of protein-based microcapsules in advancing the food industry from primary processing to deep processing and their potential applications in the biomedical, chemical, and textile industries. However, the low stability and controllability of protein wall materials lead to degraded performance and quality of microcapsules. Protein complexes with polysaccharides or modifications to proteins are often used to improve the thermal instability, pH sensitivity, encapsulation efficiency and antioxidant capacity of microcapsules. In addition, factors such as wall material composition, wall material ratio, the ratio of core to wall material, pH, and preparation method all play critical roles in the preparation and performance of microcapsules. The application area and scope of protein-based microcapsules can be further expanded by optimizing the preparation process and studying the microcapsule release mechanism and control strategy.

Abstract
Polysaccharides in plant-exuded gums are complex biopolymers consisting of a wide range of structural variability (linkages, monosaccharide composition, substituents, conformation, chain length and branching). The structural features of polysaccharides confer the ability to be exploited in different industrial sectors and applications involving biological systems. Moreover, these characteristics are attributed to a direct relationship in the process of polysaccharide enzymatic degradation by the fermentative action in the gut microbiota, through intrinsic interactions connecting bacterial metabolism and the production of various metabolites that are associated with regulatory effects on the host homeostasis system. Molecular docking analysis between bacterial target proteins and arabinogalactan-type polysaccharide obtained from gum arabic allowed the identification of intermolecular interactions provided bacterial enzymatic mechanism for the degradation of several arabinogalactan monosaccharide chains, as a model for the study and prediction of potential fermentable polysaccharide. This review discusses the main structural characteristics of polysaccharides from exudate gums of plants and their interactions with the intestinal microbiota.

Abstract
The role of glycyrrhizic acid (GA) on the dynamic stabilization mechanism of the α-Lactalbumin (α-La) emulsion was evaluated in this study. Smaller particle size and higher zeta potential value were observed in the α-La/GA emulsion as compared to the α-La emulsion. Ultra-high-resolution microscopy revealed that the interfacial film formed around oil droplets by α-La/GA complex was thicker compared to that of either α-La or GA. The appearance of a new peak at 1679 cm-1 in FTIR of the α-La/GA emulsion attributed to the stretching vibration of CO, providing evidence of the formation of a stable emulsion system. The results from dynamic molecular simulation showed GA induced the formation of an interfacial adsorption layer at the oil-water interface, reducing the migration ability of GA. The findings indicate that the presence of GA in the α-La emulsion effectively enhances its stability, highlighting its potential as a valuable emulsifying agent for various industrial applications.

Abstract
In the dairy industry, glucose (Glu) is used as bioactive substance to increase milk yield. However, the molecular regulation underneath needs further clarification. Here, the regulation and its molecular mechanism of Glu on cell growth and casein synthesis of dairy cow mammary epithelial cells (DCMECs) were investigated. When Glu was added from DCMECs, both cell growth, β-casein expression and the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) pathway were increased. Overexpression and silencing of mTOR revealed that Glu promoted cell growth and β-casein expression through the mTORC1 pathway. When Glu was added from DCMECs, both Adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase α (AMPKα) and Sestrin2 (SESN2) expression were decreased. Overexpression and silencing of AMPKα or SESN2 uncovered that AMPKα suppressed cell growth and β-casein synthesis through inhibiting mTORC1 pathway, and SESN2 suppressed cell growth and β-casein synthesis through activating AMPK pathway. When Glu was depleted from DCMECs, both activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) and nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) expression were increased. Overexpression or silencing of ATF4 or Nrf2 demonstrated that Glu depletion promoted SESN2 expression through ATF4 and Nrf2. Together, these results indicate that in DCMECs, Glu promoted cell growth and casein synthesis via ATF4/Nrf2-SESN2-AMPK-mTORC1 pathway.

Abstract
Consumers are increasingly showing a preference for foods whose nutritional and therapeutic value has been enhanced. Probiotics are live microorganisms, and their existence is associated with a number of positive effects in humans, as there are many and well-documented studies related to gut microbiota balance, the regulation of the immune system, and the maintenance of the intestinal mucosal barrier. Hence, probiotics are widely preferred by consumers, causing an increase in the corresponding food sector. As a consequence of this preference, food industries and those involved in food production are strongly interested in the occurrence of probiotics in food, as they have proven beneficial effects on human health when they exist in appropriate quantities. Encapsulation technology is a promising technique that aims to preserve probiotics by integrating them with other materials in order to ensure and improve their effectiveness. Encapsulated probiotics also show increased stability and survival in various stages related to their processing, storage, and gastrointestinal transit. This review focuses on the applications of encapsulation technology in probiotics in sustainable food production, including controlled release mechanisms and encapsulation techniques.

Abstract
In the current study, whey protein-based nanofibers were fabricated to encapsulate Lactobacillus rhamnosus. Purposely, different ratios of PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) and WPI (whey protein isolate) were blended to fabricate nanofibers. Nanofiber mats were characterized in terms of particle size, diameter, tensile strength, elongation at break, and loading efficiency. Morphological and molecular characterizations were carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). Moreover, in vitro viability under simulated gastrointestinal (GI) conditions and thermal stability were also assessed. The results reveal that by increasing the PVA concentration, the conductivity increased while the viscosity decreased. SEM micrographs showed that probiotics were successfully loaded within the nanofiber. The FTIR spectra show strong bonding between the encapsulating materials with the addition of probiotics. In vitro and thermal analyses revealed that the survival of encapsulated probiotics significantly (p < 0.05) improved. In a nutshell, PVA-WPI composite nanofibers have promising potential when used to enhance the viability and stability of probiotics under adverse conditions.

Abstract
In the current study, apple-pectin-based novel nanofibers were fabricated by electrospinning. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and apple pectin (PEC) solution were mixed to obtain an optimized ratio for the preparation of electrospun nanofibers. The obtained nanofibers were characterized for their physiochemical, mechanical and thermal properties. The nanofibers were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Furthermore, an assay of the in vitro viability of free and encapsulated probiotics was carried out under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. The results of TGA revealed that the PVA/PEC nanofibers had good thermal stability. The probiotics encapsulated by electrospinning showed a high survival rate as compared to free cells under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Furthermore, encapsulated probiotics and free cells showed a 3 log (cfu/mL) and 10 log (cfu/mL) reduction, respectively, from 30 to 120 min of simulated digestion. These findings indicate that the PVA/PEC-based nanofibers have good barrier properties and could potentially be used for the improved viability of probiotics under simulated gastrointestinal conditions and in the development of functional foods.

Abstract
In recent years, food safety caused by foodborne pathogens and spoilage bacteria has become a major public health problem worldwide. Bacteriocins are a kind of antibacterial peptide synthesized by microbial ribosomes, and are widely used as food preservatives. However, when used individually bacteriocins may have limitations such as high cost of isolation and purification, narrow inhibitory spectrum, easy degradation by enzymes, and vulnerability to complex food environments. Numerous studies have demonstrated that co-treatment with bacteriocins and a variety of chemical substances can have synergistic antibacterial effects on spoilage microorganisms and foodborne pathogens, effectively prolonging the shelf life of food and ensuring food safety. Therefore, this paper systematically summarizes the synergistic bacteriostatic strategies of bacteriocins in combination with chemical substances such as essential oils, plant extracts, and organic acids. The impacts of bacteriocins when used individually and in combination with other chemical substances on different food substrates are clarified, and bacteriocin-chemical substance compositions that enhance antibacterial effectiveness and reduce the potential negative effects of chemical preservatives are highlighted and discussed. Combined treatments involving bacteriocins and different kinds of chemical substances are expected to be a promising new antibacterial method and to become widely used in both the food industry and biological medicine.

Abstract
Model high-protein nutrition bars (HPNBs) were formulated by incorporating whey protein isolate (WPI) and casein (CN) at various extrusion temperatures (50, 75, 100, 125, and 150 °C) with a protein content of 45 g per 100 g. The free sulfhydryl groups, amino groups, hardness, and microstructures of HPNBs were analyzed periodically at 37 °C over a storage period of 45 days. Specifically, sulfhydryl group, amino group and surface hydrophobicity of extruded whey protein isolate (WPE) and extruded casein (CE) were significantly reduced (P < 0.05) compared to those of unextruded protein. HPNBs formulated with WPE (HWPE) and CE (HWCE) exhibited a slower hardening rate compared to those formulated with unmodified protein. Moreover, the color difference, hardness and sensory score of HPNBs after 45 days of storage were used as indicators, and the results of the TOPSIS multiple index analysis indicated that HPNB formulated with WPI extruded at 150 °C possessed the best quality characteristics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Soybean oil bodies (SOB) are droplets of natural emulsified oil. Soybean oil emulsifies well but it is easily oxidized during storage. Beet pectin is a complex anionic polysaccharide, which can be adsorbed on the surface of liposomes to improve their resistance to flocculation. Laccase can covalently cross-link ferulic acid in beet pectin, and its structure is irreversible, which can improve the stability of polysaccharides. RESULTS At pH 2.5, laccase cross-linked beet pectin high-oil soybean oil body (HOSOB) and high-protein soybean oil body (HPSOB) emulsions showed obvious aggregation and severe stratification, and the oxidation of the emulsions was also high. The flocculation of emulsions decreased with an increase in the pH. The effect of pH on the flocculation of emulsion was confirmed by confocal laser electron microscopy. The ζ potential, emulsification, and rheological shear force increased with increasing pH whereas the particle size and surface hydrophobicity decreased with increasing pH. CONCLUSION This experiment indicates that the physicochemical stability of the two composite emulsions was strongly affected under acidic conditions but stable under neutral and weakly alkaline conditions. Under the same acid-base conditions, the degree of oxidation of HPSOB composite emulsion changes substantially. The results of this study can provide a basis for the design of very stable emulsions to meet the demand for natural products. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Physical treatment synergized with natural surfactant for improving gas-water interfacial behavior and foam characteristics of α-lactalbumin. Ultrason Sonochem 2023; 95:106369.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate effect of physical treatment (ultrasound, U/high pressure homogenization, H/combined treatment, UH or HU) and surfactant (Mogroside V, Mog) on air/water interface adsorption and foaming properties of α-lactalbumin (ALa). Firstly, the binding of Mog and all physical-treated ALa was a static quenching process. Mog had the greatest binding affinity for HU-ALa among all treated samples. U or H treatment could change surface hydrophobicity of ALa/Mog complex. Secondly, at the molar ratio (ALa:Mog) of 1:50, foaming ability (FA) of all ALa samples got the maximum. The sequence of FA in ALa and ALa/Mog complex was listed as follow: HU > U > H > UH. Moreover, foaming stability (FS) of HU-ALa was the highest, followed by H-ALa, U-ALa and UH-ALa. Meanwhile, low concentration Mog increased FS of ALa or UH-ALa, but it reduced FS of H-ALa, U-ALa and HU-ALa. Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) experiment indicated that ALa/Mog complex after U or H treatment was quickly absorbed at air/water interface, compared with the treated ALa, and HU-ALa/Mog had the largest frequency shift. In addition, HU-ALa had the thickest bubble membrane and the highest dissipation shift in all samples, indicating that the absorbed membrane thickness and viscoelasticity of samples was correlated with foam stability. Therefore, U and H treatment synergism with Mog was an effective approach to enhance foam properties of ALa, which indicated that HU-treated ALa/Mog complex could be viewed as the safe and efficient foaming agent applied in food processing.

Abstract
Extracts from plants have been one of the main sources of antioxidants, namely polyphenols. The associated drawbacks, such as instability against environmental factors, low bioavailability, and loss of activity, must be considered during microencapsulation for a better application. Electrohydrodynamic processes have been investigated as promising tools to fabricate crucial vectors to minimize these limitations. The developed microstructures present high potential to encapsulate active compounds and for controlling their release. The fabricated electrospun/electrosprayed structures present different benefits when compared with structures developed by other techniques; they present a high surface-area-to-volume ratio as well as porosity, great materials handling, and scalable production-among other advantages-which make them able to be widely applied in different fields, namely in the food industry. This review presents a summary of the electrohydrodynamic processes, main studies, and their application.

Abstract
Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) has emerged as an important public health problem in the world. The polyphenols, protein, peptides, and polysaccharides have attracted attention for prevention or treatment of ALD. Therefore, this paper reviews the pathogenesis of ALD, the relationship between polyphenols, peptides, polysaccharides, and ALD, and expounds the mechanism of gut microbiota on protecting ALD. It is mainly found that the hydroxyl group of polyphenols endows it with antioxidation to protect ALD. The ALD protection of bioactive peptides is related to amino acid composition. The ALD protection of polysaccharides is related to the primary structure. Meanwhile, polyphenols, protein, peptides, and polysaccharides prevent or treat ALD by antioxidation, anti-inflammatory, antiapoptosis, lipid metabolism, and gut microbiota regulation. This contribution provides updated information on polyphenols, protein, peptides, and polysaccharides in response to ALD, which will not only facilitate the development of novel bioactive components but also the future application of functional food raw materials will be promoted.
