Plant-based bigels for delivery of bioactive compounds: Influence of hydrogel:o...
Gonçalves, Raquel Filipa Silva; Zhou, Hualu; Vicente, A. A.; Pinheiro, A. C.; McClements, David JulianBigels are a class of soft matter systems with high potential in food industry as fortified ingredient replacers or food analogs. The aim of this work was to develop plant-based bigels using potato protein-based hydrogel and candelilla wax-based oleogel. The potato protein concentration and hydrogel:oleogel ratio effects on bigels production was assessed in terms of textural and rheological properties. The inco...
INFOGEST static in vitro simulation of gastrointestinal food digestion
Brodkorb, André; Egger, Lotti; Alminger, Marie; Alvito, Paula; Assunção, Ricardo; Ballance, Simon; Bohn, Torsten; Bourlieu-Lacanal, ClaireDeveloping a mechanistic understanding of the impact of food structure and composition on human health has increasingly involved simulating digestion in the upper gastrointestinal tract. These simulations have used a wide range of different conditions that often have very little physiological relevance, and this impedes the meaningful comparison of results. The standardized protocol presented here is based on a...
