Design of bio-based supramolecular structures through self-assembly of α-lactal...
Monteiro, Adenilson A.; Monteiro, Márcia R.; Pereira, Ricardo N.; Diniz, Renata; Costa, Angélica R.; Malcata, F. Xavier; Teixeira, José A.Bovine α-lactalbumin (α-La) and lysozyme (Lys), two globular proteins with highly homologous tertiary structures and opposite isoelectric points, were used to produce bio-based supramolecular structures under various pH values (3, 7 and 11), temperatures (25, 50 and 75 °C) and times (15, 25 and 35 min) of heating. Isothermal titration calorimetry experiments showed protein interactions and demonstrated that str...

Production of β-carotene nanoemulsions prepared by a high-speed blender: charac...
Silva, Hélder D.; Cerqueira, Miguel Ângelo Parente Ribeiro; Souza, B. W. S.; Ribeiro, Clara; Avides, Maria do Carmo; Coimbra, Jane S.An efficient implementation of nanotechnology at the industrial level depends on the development of new tools for the application of strategies aimed at improving food quality and human health. Such strategies should offer the potential to significantly improve the solubility and bioavailability of many functional ingredients. The aim of the present work was to prepare -carotene stable nanoemulsions as potentia...
