“…In the food industry MXs have been widely employed, providing different benefits such as the improvement of texture, reducing floury taste, as sweetness modifiers, controlling non-enzymatic browning, decreasing the freezing point in mixtures, as carriers and ingredients [3,5]. Likewise, because of their high solubility in water, MXs are widely employed in the encapsulation industry, mainly as additives in the drying processes [6,7]. The most important benefit of the addition of MX is increasing the T g of the food product and the subsequent preservation of the physicochemical properties.…”

Technological Application of Maltodextrins According to the Degree of Polymerization

Maltodextrin (MX) is an ingredient in high demand in the food industry, mainly for its useful physical properties which depend on the dextrose equivalent (DE). The DE has however been shown to be an inaccurate parameter for predicting the performance of the MXs in technological applications, hence commercial MXs were characterized by mass spectrometry (MS) to determine their molecular weight distribution (MWD) and degree of polymerization (DP). Samples were subjected to different water activities (a w ). Water adsorption was similar at low a w , but radically increased with the DP at higher a w . The decomposition temperature (T d ) showed some variations attributed to the thermal hydrolysis induced by the large amount of adsorbed water and the supplied heat. The glass transition temperature (T g ) linearly decreased with both, a w and DP. The microstructural analysis by X-ray diffraction showed that MXs did not crystallize with the adsorption of water, preserving their amorphous structure. The optical micrographs showed radical changes in the overall appearance of the MXs, indicating a transition from a glassy to a rubbery state. Based on these characterizations, different technological applications for the MXs were suggested.

“…Besides, γ-PGA also finds potential application in a wide variety of fields including food, agriculture, cosmetics, medicine, and water treatment, which have been well reviewed , . Our earlier studies explored the application of γ-PGA as adsorbent for cationic dyes and heterocyclic amines , as well as carrier for encapsulation of lycopene and soy isoflavones . Previous studies on binding of heavy metals by γ-PGA have been restricted to metals ions such as Ni 2+ , Cu 2+ , Mn 2+ , Al 3+ , Cr 3+ , Hg 2+ , and U 4+ for water treatment − .…”

An edible biopolymer poly(gamma-glutamic acid) (gamma-PGA) was evaluated for possible use as an chelating/binding agent in the treatment of metal intoxication in humans. In vitro binding of the toxic heavy metals lead and cadmium as affected by pH, contact time, metal concentration, gamma-PGA dose, and essential metals was carried out in a batch mode. A maximum binding occurred in the pH range 5-7, corresponding to the gastrointestinal pH values except for the stomach. Binding isotherms at pH 5.5 were well described by the heterogeneous models (Freundlich and Toth), while the lead isotherm at pH 2.5 showed a S-type curve, which was fitted as multiple curves with the Langmuir model and a shifted-squared Langmuir model. However, no adsorption occurred for cadmium at pH 2.5. The maximum binding capacities of lead and cadmium at pH 5.5 were 213.58 and 41.85 mg/g, respectively. A curvilinear biphasic Scatchard plot signified a multisite interaction of metals. Binding was extremely rapid with 70-100% of total adsorption being attained in 2 min. Kinetics at low and high metal concentrations obeyed pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models, respectively. The gamma-PGA dose-activity relationship revealed a low dose of gamma-PGA to be more efficient in binding a large amount of metals. Incorporation of Cu, Zn, Fe, Mg, Ca, and K showed only a minor influence on lead binding but significantly reduced the binding of cadmium.

“…These results agree with those reported in the literature; however, it was stated that both drying processes led to a partial loss of compounds like small molecular carbonyls, furans, and phenols [ 38 ]. In another study it was reported that freeze drying can generate a more significant amount of isoflavone powder from soybean cake than vacuum drying and spray drying [ 39 ].…”

Nutmeg Essential Oil, Red Clover, and Liquorice Extracts Microencapsulation Method Selection for the Release of Active Compounds from Gel Tablets of Different Bases

et al. 2023

The current study presents the most suitable method for encapsulating nutmeg essential oil with liquorice and red clover. Two widely used methods, spray-drying and freeze-drying, were employed to find the most suitable for essential oil volatile compounds’ protection. Results showed that freeze-dried capsules (LM) had a higher yield (85.34%) compared to the exact formulation of spray-dried microcapsules (SDM)—45.12%. All the antioxidant and total phenolic compounds’ results obtained with the LM sample were significantly higher compared with SDM. LM microcapsules were incorporated in two different bases with no additional sugar (gelatin and pectin) for targeted release. Pectin tablets had firmer and harder texture properties, while gelatin tablets had a more elastic texture. There was a significant impact on texture changes caused by microcapsules. Microencapsulated essential oil with extracts can be used alone or in a gel base (pectin or gelatin, depending on user preferences). It could be an effective product to protect the active volatile compounds and regulate the release of active compounds and give a pleasant taste.
