... This work aimed to investigate the encapsulation and stabilization mechanism of cinnamaldehyde and eugenol in high internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) through regulating their interfacial rheological properties and interfacial microstructure. With the incorporation of cinnamaldehyde, the Schiff base reaction between the cinnamaldehyde and proteins favored the formation of the predominantly ...
... The regular release kinetics of active ingredients is inconsistent with the demand of meat preservation. Herein, the pH-triggered dynamic mechanism of packaging film was developed based on L100 polymer incorporated with Cinnamon essential oil (CEO) by coaxial electrospinning. The acquired results revealed that UV–vis and fluorescence spectra confirmed the pH release behavior. The fabricated film w ...
... The essential oil Pickering emulsions stabilized by zein and chitosan nanoparticles (ZCPs) were investigated. ZCP stabilized Pickering emulsions encapsulating citral and/or cinnamaldehyde (ZCP-CT, ZCP-CN, ZCP-CTCN) were constructed as an effective antimicrobial system, and the stability and antifungal properties were evaluated. When the ratio of zein to chitosan was 20:1, the emulsion showed good ...

Abstract:
... The Pickering emulsions containing cinnamon essential oil (CEO) stabilized by lignocellulose nanocrystals-tannic acid (LCNC-TA) complexes were used to improve properties of gelatin film. The influences of various volume proportion mixed oil (sunflower oil/CEO 1:0, 5:1, 2:1 and 1:1) were investigated. Introducing CEO reduced the droplet size approximately from 57 to 30 μm, facilitating droplet dist ...

In this study, chitosan and gum Arabic coacervated complex (CGCC) were used to stabilize high internal phase Pickering emulsion (HIPE), and cinnamon essential oil (CEO) was incorporated into oil phase. The effects of CEO and CGCC concentration on the microstructure, rheology, gel strength and stability of HIPE were investigated. Benefiting from the enhancement of the hydrophobicity of CGCC by gum ...

Abstract:
... In order to increase the stability of hop (Humulus lupulus L.) essential oil (HEO) and diversify its application into hot beverages, CAPSUL®, modified food starch, was used as the wall material to encapsulate HEO at the mass ratio of 2:1 through spray drying under 180 °C. The resultant microcapsules were applied to the non-alcoholic hop tea for the first time and their release kinetics in this mat ...

Aloysia Paláu is an important herbal genus from the Verbenaceae family and possesses numerous remedial properties in the folk medicine of Asian, European, and, in particular, South American countries. Only a few reports have discussed some phytochemical characteristics associated with Aloysia species. Right the lack of an exhaustive report prompted us to organize this review article. Accordingly, ...
