Characterization of Pickering emulsions stabilized by delipidated egg yolk granular protein nanoparticles crosslinked with ultraviolet radiation. Food Chem 2024; 433:137330. [PMID: 37660604 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2022] [Revised: 06/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
In this study, delipidated egg yolk proteins were used for the first time to prepare nanoparticles by the self-assembling method at pH 8.0, then treated with UV-C as a crosslinking agent, and their stability tested at pH 7.0, which is a more convenient pH for food applications. According to the results obtained, non-irradiated nanoparticles had a size of 431.8 ± 75.7 nm at pH 7.0, but the 10 min UV-C irradiated nanoparticles had an average size of 139.7 ± 5.9 nm. These nanoparticles also showed a high resistance to destabilization by SDS, urea or DTT and noticeable antioxidant and ferrous chelating activities. Pickering emulsions prepared at the nanoparticle concentration of 1 % (w/w) showed the smallest average droplet size and the lowest Turbiscan stability index value after 80 days of storage. All in all, these results have important implications for the utilisation of these proteins as a conventional Pickering emulsifying agent.

Antioxidant Activity of Egg Yolk Protein Hydrolysates Obtained by Enzymatic and Sub-Critical Water Hydrolysis. Molecules 2023; 28:7836. [PMID: 38067564 PMCID: PMC10708546 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28237836] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Obtaining peptides with antioxidant properties by enzymatic hydrolysis has been widely described; however, the use of non-enzymatic methods to obtain peptides with antioxidant capacities has been poorly investigated. In this study, non-soluble proteins obtained from delipidated egg yolk granules were hydrolyzed with trypsin, and with a non-enzymatic method using sub-critical water hydrolysis under a non-oxidizing (nitrogen) and oxidizing (oxygen) atmosphere. The effect of the sub-critical water hydrolysis on the amino acids' composition of the hydrolysates was assessed. Furthermore, the antioxidant capacities of the hydrolysates were evaluated using the ABTS•+ scavenging assay, the DPPH radical scavenging activity assay, and by measuring the reducing power of the peptides, the peptides' ferrous ion chelating capacities, and the antioxidant effect of the peptides on beef homogenates. The hydrolysate obtained by sub-critical water hydrolysis under a nitrogen stream showed similar or better results in the antioxidant tests than those obtained using trypsin hydrolysis, except in the ferrous chelating capacity, where the trypsin hydrolysate showed the best performance. The oxidizing environment promoted by the oxygen in the other sub-critical water hydrolysis method tested produced the peptides with the lowest antioxidant capacities, due to changes in the primary structure of the peptides. These results suggest that the sub-critical water hydrolysis method under a nitrogen stream, in comparison with the enzymatic hydrolysis, is a reliable method to obtain peptides with good antioxidant capacities.

Kinetic-conceptual model of the hydrolysis of bovine plasma proteins - ALCALASE® 2.9L: The role of inhibition by product. Heliyon 2023; 9:e21002.

Abstract
In the present work, the inhibitory effect of the peptide fractions, obtained through enzymatic hydrolysis of bovine plasma was evaluated, on the enzyme used in the reaction (Alcalase 2.4 L). In this sense, Ultra-filtered peptide fractions of different molecular sizes (A: Fraction>10; B: Fraction 10-3 kDa; and C: Fraction <3 kDa), were used to verify the impact on the total hydrolysis rate. The Fractions between 3 and 10 kDa were refined to fit a conceptual kinetic model which considers inhibition by product and substrate. Additionally, the inactivation of the enzyme through the reaction time was evaluated and its effects incorporated into the model. It was shown that some peptides released in the successive stages of the reaction can in turn inhibit the activity of the hydrolyzing enzyme. The model evaluated suggests a time-varying expression of inhibition parameters as a function of the initial substrate concentration in the reaction. This is based on the kinetic changes of the product profiles for each reaction time in the evaluated operating conditions (S0 variable). A greater inhibitory effect due to the products is evidenced when the reaction occurs with a higher load of the initial substrate (S0 = 20 g/L).

Effect of Birch Sap as Solvent and Source of Bioactive Compounds in Casein and Gelatine Films. MEMBRANES 2023; 13:786. [PMID: 37755208 PMCID: PMC10536005 DOI: 10.3390/membranes13090786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023]
Abstract
Birch sap consists of a natural water-based solution with valuable compounds such as minerals, sugars, organic acids and phenolic compounds that can be used advantageously in the preparation of edible films. In this study, gelatine- and casein-based films were prepared using birch sap as biopolymer solvent and source of bioactive compounds with the aim of developing new bioactive materials for food packaging. The physical, mechanical, barrier, antioxidant and iron-chelating properties of the obtained films were investigated. Birch sap enhanced the mechanical properties of the films by increasing puncture strength and flexibility, as well as their ultraviolet-visible light barrier properties. In addition, the presence of bioactive compounds endowed the birch sap films with an antioxidant capacity of almost 90% and an iron-chelating capacity of 40-50% with respect to the control films. Finally, to test these films as food packaging material, a photosensitive curcumin solution was packed and exposed to ultraviolet light. Tested films were able to protect curcumin against photodegradation, and the presence of bioactive compounds inside the birch-sap-enriched materials offered an additional 10% photoprotective effect compared to control films. Results showed the potential of birch sap as an environmentally friendly biopolymer solvent and plasticizer that can improve the mechanical and photoprotective properties of the prepared materials.

Impact of adding prebiotics and probiotics on the characteristics of edible films and coatings- a review. Food Res Int 2023; 164:112381. [PMID: 36737965 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2022.112381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Nowadays, conventional packaging materials made using non-renewable sources are being replaced by more sustainable alternatives such as natural biopolymers (proteins, polysaccharides, and lipids). Within edible packaging, one can differentiate between edible films or coatings. This packaging can be additivated with bioactive compounds to develop functional food packaging, capable of improving the consumer's state of health. Among the bioactive compounds that can be added are probiotics and prebiotics. This review novelty highlighted recent research on edible films and coatings additivated with probiotics and prebiotics, the interactions between them and the matrix and the changes in their physic, chemical and mechanical properties. When bioactive compounds are added, critical factors must be considered when selecting the most suitable production processes. Particularly, as probiotics are living microorganisms, they are more sensitive to certain factors, such as pH or temperature, while prebiotic compounds are less problematic. The interactions that occur inside the matrix can be divided into two main groups: covalent bonding (-NH2, -NHR, -OH, -CO2H, etc) and non-covalent interactions (van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions). When probiotics and prebiotics are added, covalent and non-covalent interactions are modified. The physical and mechanical properties of films and coatings depend directly on the interactions that take place between the biopolymers that form their matrix. Greater knowledge about the influence of these compounds on the interactions that occur inside the matrix will allow better control of these properties and better understanding of the behaviour of edible packaging additivated with probiotics and prebiotics.

Bio-production of lactic and lactobionic acids using whey from the production of cow's milk Wagashi cheese in Benin. Front Nutr 2022; 9:1020934.

Abstract
Traditional cheese is the main milk derivative in Bénin. This traditional process is not efficient and generate a lot of whey which has no real use until now. It is just disposed without being environmentally treated. Its use as a source for lactobionic and lactic acids production by Pseudomonas taetrolens and Lactobacillus casei is studied in this work, being also a proposal that can greatly boost economically the dairy sector in the country and reduce the end-of-cycle impact of the residue. To our knowledge, no data is available in the metabolization of Bénin's traditional cheese whey and its potential transformation into commercially valuable products such as lactobionic and lactic acids. With bulk filtration, non-controlled pH batch fermentations and without nutrients supplementation, 66 and 22% of lactose in the traditional cheese whey have been converted into lactobionic acid and lactic acid using Pseudomonas taetrolens and Lactobacillus casei, respectively. Those are important results that encourage to enhance the bioprocesses used in a cost-effective way in order to scale up an industrial production.

Abstract
Lactobionic acid (LBA) is a bioactive molecule that has generated keen interest in different industries. However, its future application in the food area is one of the most promising. Chemically, it is a polyhydroxy acid formed by the union of two molecules (galactose and gluconic acid) linked by an ether-bond, showing many interesting and unusual properties due to its structure and composition, although it is traditionally known in the food industry for its chelating, moisturizing, gelling, and antioxidant properties. There has been much research into the production of LBA, either by microbial fermentation or biocatalytic approaches such as enzymatic synthesis, but its use in foodstuffs, to produce new functional products and to evaluate its antimicrobial activity against food-borne pathogens, is a relatively new topic that has attracted the interest of the international research community recently. Furthermore, in spite of the potential of LBA, it has been approved only by the US Food and Drug Administration, and for its use as the salt form, but the publication of new comprehensive studies, able to agglutinate all the new food-related LBA research results, could disseminate knowledge about this compound and have an influence on its current regulation status. The aim of the present review is to describe the most recent advances and research on its antimicrobial potential, as well as summarizing the significant aspects that make LBA a promising bioactive compound for the food sector. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Cheese whey, one of the most abundant by-products of the dairy industry, causes economic losses and pollution problems. In this study, deproteinised sweet whey was fermented by Pseudomonas taetrolens LMG 2336 to produce a prebiotic compound (lactobionic acid, LBA). Endotoxins produced by these microorganisms were successfully removed using microfiltration techniques, allowing the fermented whey permeate to be used in the food industry. The fermented whey permeate was used to develop prebiotic edible films by adding two different concentrations of gelatine (0.45 and 0.9 g gelatine g−1 LBA; LBA45 and LBA90). Furthermore, Lactobacillus plantarum CECT 9567 was added as a probiotic microorganism (LP45 and LP90), creating films containing both a prebiotic and a probiotic. The mechanical properties, water solubility, light transmittance, colour, and microstructure of the films were fully characterised. Additionally, the LBA and probiotic concentration in LP45 and LP90 were monitored under storage conditions. The strength and water solubility of the films were affected by the presence of LBA, and though all these films were homogeneous, they were slightly opaque. In LP45 and LP90, the presence of LBA as a prebiotic improved the viability of L. plantarum during cold storage, compared to the control. Therefore, these films could be used in the food industry to coat different foodstuffs to obtain functional products.

Abstract
Polylactic acid (PLA) is known to be one of the most extensively used biodegradable thermoplastic polyesters, with the potential to replace conventional petroleum-based packaging materials; however, the low flexibility of films prepared using PLA has limited the applications of this biopolymer. In this study, in order to improve the mechanical properties of PLA films and to provide them with antioxidant properties, egg yolk oil was used as a biobased plasticizer. For this purpose, PLA films with increasing concentrations of egg yolk oil were prepared and the effects of this oil on the light transmission, transparency, colour, water vapour permeability, solubility, antioxidant activity and mechanical properties of the films were characterized. In addition, electron microscopy of the structure of the transverse section of the films was also performed. Results showed that the formulations with higher concentrations of egg yolk oil increased the films’ elasticity, and their light barrier and antioxidant properties. Finally, in order to test the films as a packaging material for food applications, extra virgin olive oil and resveratrol, both photosensitive compounds, were packed and exposed to ambient light. Overall, the results show the potential of egg yolk oil as an environmentally friendly plasticizer that can improve the flexibility of PLA films and provide them with additional photoprotective properties.

Abstract
Proteins, such as those in blood from slaughterhouses, are a good option for developing edible films. However, films made exclusively from proteins have low strength and high water solubility, which makes them difficult to use in the food industry. The use of cellulosic material, such as nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC), can improve the properties of these films. In the present work, bovine plasma was acidified and treated with ethanol to precipitate its proteins, and these proteins were used to prepare films reinforced with several concentrations of NFC. In addition, control films prepared with untreated bovine plasma and reinforced with NFC were prepared as well. These new edible films were characterized according to their mechanical properties, water vapor permeability, light transmittance, and microstructure. Furthermore, the film with the best properties was selected to be additivated with nisin to test its antimicrobial properties by wrapping meat previously contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus. In this sense, films prepared with the extracted proteins showed better properties than the films prepared with untreated plasma. In addition, the results showed that the reinforcement of the films with a 10% (w/w) of NFC decreased their water solubility and improved their puncture strength and water vapor barrier properties. Finally, the addition of nisin to the films prepared with extracted protein from bovine plasma and NFC gave them antimicrobial properties against S. aureus.

Abstract
The current study is focused on the simple synthesis of two novel biosorbent beads: BASB/STMP and CNFB/STMP, derived respectively from bleached almond shell (BAS) and cellulose nanofiber from almond shell (CNF) by means of chemical crosslinking with sodium trimetaphosphate (STMP). These biosorbents were thoroughly characterized in terms of structure (FTIR), texture (N2 adsorption-desorption), thermal behavior (TGA/DTG), morphology (SEM), and surface properties (XPS). The adsorption kinetics of Cu(II) ions onto BASB/STMP and CNFB/STMP materials proved the chemisorption interaction between Cu(II) ions and the STMP functionalized beads. The BASB/STMP equilibrium data were successfully described by the Redlich-Peterson model and the CNFB/STMP data by the Sips model which disclosed maximum adsorption capacities of 141.44 mg g-1 and 147.90 mg g-1, respectively. Furthermore, the BASB/STMP bioadsorbent offers easy regeneration and better reusability with high efficiency (> 83%). This study sheds light on the preparation of low-cost adsorbents for wastewater treatment in order to improve the competitiveness and eco-friendliness of agrowaste-based processes.

Abstract
In this study, novel cellulose-bead-based biosorbents (CBBAS) were successfully synthesized from almond shell using a simple three-step process: (i) dissolution of bleached almond shell in ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride), (ii) coagulation of cellulose-ionic liquid solution in water and (iii) freeze-drying. Their morphological, structural and physicochemical properties were thoroughly characterized. These biomaterials exhibited a 3D-macroporous structure with interconnected pores, which provided a high number of adsorption sites. It should be noted that CBBAS biosorbents were efficiently employed for the removal of copper (II) ions from aqueous solutions, showing high adsorption capacity: 128.24 mg g-1. The biosorption equilibrium data obtained were successfully fitted to the Sips model and the kinetics were suitably described by the pseudo-second-order model. Besides, CBBAS biosorbents can be easily separated from the solution for their subsequent reuse, and thus, they represent a method for the removal of copper (II) from aqueous solutions that is not only eco-friendly but also economical.

Abstract
Pseudomonas taetrolens constitutes an efficient platform for the biosynthesis of lactobionic acid, a potentially prebiotic compound. Unfortunately, an amensalistic interaction has been demonstrated between P. taetrolens and probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB), characterized by the competitive exclusion of P. taetrolens, hindering the in situ production of fermented dairy products with synbiotic properties. In the present research, encapsulation was explored as a barrier to the diffusion of the antimicrobial metabolites generated by LAB. Mixed fermentations involving P. taetrolens LMG 2336 and Lactobacillus casei CECT 475 were cultivated, entrapping both microorganisms alternately. Alginate, alginate/starch and carboxymethyl cellulose/k-carrageenan were tested as encapsulating agents. The immobilization of L. casei in 2% alginate/2% starch beads was found to be the best strategy, improving the production of lactobionic acid by 182% with respect to co-cultures with free cells. This study proves the potential of LAB encapsulation for the protection of sensitive strains in mixed food fermentations.

Abstract
Tissue engineering is one of the fields of clinical medicine that has forged ahead in recent years, especially because of its role as a potential alternative to organ transplantation. The main aim of this study has been the development of biocompatible materials to form extracellular matrix (ECM) structures in order to provide the necessary conditions for the settlement, proliferation and differentiation of dermal cells such as fibroblasts. To this end, human plasma gels were synthesized with the addition of increasing concentrations of transglutaminase (TGase), which catalyses the formation of covalent bonds between Lys and Glu residues. These materials were structurally characterized using rheology and texturometry and were found to have good structural resistance and elasticity for fibroblast culture. A remarkable improvement in the mechanical properties of the human plasma gels was detected when the two highest TGase concentrations were tested, which may be interpreted as an increase in the number of covalent and non-covalent bonds formed between the plasma protein chains. Furthermore, a human fibroblast primary culture was seeded on human plasma scaffolds and satisfactorily proliferated at 37 °C. This was verified in the images obtained by optical microscopy (OM) and by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which confirmed that the structure of this type of material is suitable for the growth and proliferation of dermal fibroblasts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Eggshell contains two layers formed by a dense network of fibrous proteins. These proteins are highly insoluble in a broad variety of solvents, but their composition makes them suitable for a broad range of applications. In this study, in order to extract and solubilise these proteins, the eggshell membranes were treated in an alkali solution. A Box-Behnken design was employed to determine the influence of the treatment variables on the amount of protein solubilised. Furthermore, the effect of ultrasound on the protein recovery yield was also evaluated and compared with the unmodified process. RESULTS A solubilised protein yield close to 100% of the total eggshell membrane protein was obtained. The optimal conditions could be set at 70 °C in a 1.0 mol L-1 NaOH solution for 60 min. However, when ultrasound was applied, it was possible to decrease the time of reaction by half. In the two processes, the temperature was found to be the most important independent variable evaluated. Finally, the antioxidant properties of the proteins obtained in each case were similar. CONCLUSIONS Ultrasound favours the detachment of big clumps of proteins from the eggshell membrane, facilitating the solubilisation of its compounds. The ultrasound had no effect on the protein properties tested in this study. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Commercial extraction with organic solvents of valuable lipids from egg yolk produces a highly denatured protein waste that should be valorized. In this work, the delipidated protein waste remaining after ethanol extraction was used to prepare edible films. This material was also treated with transglutaminase, obtaining films that have also been characterized. When compared with gelatin and caseinate edible films, the films made with egg yolk delipidated protein showed poorer mechanical properties, but improved light barrier properties, low water solubility and a high degree of transparency. It is particularly interesting that the presence of phosvitin in the egg yolk gives the films important ferrous chelating properties. When the egg yolk delipidated protein was treated with transglutaminase, the strength of the film was improved in comparison with films made with untreated protein. Finally, addition of thymol and natamycin in the preparation of these films is shown to be an interesting alternative, providing them with antibacterial and antifungal capacities.

Abstract
Pseudomonas taetrolens has recently been revealed as an effective microbial producer of lactobionic acid from carbohydrates contained in dairy byproducts. In terms of food industrial applications, the implementation of lactobionic acid biosynthesis coupled with the classic bacterial production of lactic acid appears an important goal. This research paper studies the simultaneous fermentation of residual cheese whey by P. taetrolens and Lactobacillus casei to co-produce lactic and lactobionic acids. Experimental data showed the importance of the interactions established between the two microorganisms. Changes in physiology, viability, growth, and productive capacity were tested experimentally. Lactobacillus was not seen to suffer any appreciable stress, but considerable variations were observed in the Pseudomonas behavior presumably owing to inhibitory lactic metabolites, interaction that can be classified as microbial amensalism. As to production, lactic acid remained without significant changes in mixed fermentations, whereas the production of lactobionic acid decreased sharply due to the competitive exclusion of Pseudomonas.

Abstract
New biomaterials prepared from egg yolk and its main fractions (plasma and granules) have been developed for use in tissue engineering. Protein gels obtained via transglutaminase cross-linking were characterized by rheometry, texturometry and scanning electron microscopy. All the gels exhibited suitable physical and mechanical characteristics for use as potential biomaterials in skin regeneration. Specifically, results showed that these materials presented a compact, uniform structure, with granular gel being found to be the most resistant as well as the most elastic material. Accordingly, these gels were subsequently evaluated as scaffolds for murine fibroblast growth. The best results were obtained with granule gels. Not only adhesion and cell growth were detected when using these gels, but also continuous coatings of cells growing on their surface. These findings can be attributed to the higher protein content of this fraction and to the particular structure of its proteins. Thus, granules have proved to be an interesting potential raw material for scaffold development. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 32:1577-1583, 2016.

Simultaneous production of lactobionic and gluconic acid in cheese whey/glucose co-fermentation by Pseudomonas taetrolens. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2015; 196:314-323.

Abstract
Substrate versatility of Pseudomonas taetrolens was evaluated for the first time in a co-fermentation system combining cheese whey and glucose, glycerol or lactose as co-substrates. Results showed that P. taetrolens displayed different production patterns depending on the co-substrate supplied. Whereas the presence of glucose led to a simultaneous co-production of lactobionic (78g/L) and gluconic acid (8.8g/L), lactose feeding stimulated the overproduction of lactobionic acid from whey with a high specific productivity (1.4g/gh) and yield (100%). Co-substrate supply of glycerol conversely led to reduced lactobionic acid yield (82%) but higher cell densities (1.8g/L), channelling the carbon source towards cell growth and maintenance. Higher carbon availability impaired the metabolic activity as well as membrane integrity, whereas lactose feeding improved the cellular functionality of P. taetrolens. Insights into these mixed carbon source strategies open up the possibility of co-producing lactobionic and gluconic acid into an integrated single-cell biorefinery.
