[Display omitted] • Oil types influence emulsion interfacial delivery system (EIDS) stability in digestion. • First study on different chain length oil types' effects on EIDS characteristics. • Long chain fatty acids help to improve the bioaccessibility of Oleanolic acid (OA). • The carrier oil of self-stabilizing EIDE can regulate the bioaccessibility of OA. Pentacyclic triterpenes have attracted much attention because of their many bioactivities, but their bioaccessibility is low. Oleanolic acid (OA) was used in this study as a typical edible pentacyclic triterpene. In this work, we proposed an OA interfacial delivery model based on W/O Pickering emulsion, and investigated the effects of different oil types on the emulsion properties and OA bioaccessibility of the OA W/O Pickering emulsion interfacial delivery system (EIDS). Medium chain triglyceride (MCT), long chain triglycerides (LCT) and MCT/LCT (1:1, w/w) were selected as carrier oils for the preparation of emulsions, respectively. The results showed that the emulsions formed from LCT had smaller particle sizes, which increased the deformation resistance of the emulsions and exhibited good stability during the simulated in vitro digestion. The extent of free fatty acid (FFA) release during oil digestion was MCT (103.32 ± 3.74 %) > M/L (97.89 ± 2.89 %) > LCT (71.41 ± 6.64 %). Of interest, the bioaccessibility of OA was influenced by the carrier oil: LCT (59.34 ± 2.55 %) > M/L (47.35 ± 6.25 %) > MCT (13.11 ± 1.40 %) ＞ PBS (7.11 ± 1.74 %), and such a difference was mainly attributed to the greater solubilisation of OA in mixed micelles consisting of long-chain fatty acids. In summary, the size of hydrophobic domains in the mixed micelles produced a greater effect than the effect of FFA release on OA bioaccessibility. This study provides a theoretical basis for the interfacial delivery of OA and the enhancement of OA bioaccessibility based on W/O Pickering emulsions with different oil types.

The high consumption of saturated and trans fats, used in the formulation of lipid-based foods, is associated with incidence of health problems. Organogels or oleogels are a novel class of structured lipids formed from liquid oil as continuous phase entrapped within network of structuring molecules. The aim of this study was to understand the role of oils with different composition on the formation of glyceryl monostearate (GM) gel network. Glyceryl monostearate-based oleogels were produced with the minimal concentration of 5 wt% in sunflower (SF), high oleic sunflower oil (HOS) and coconut oil (CO). The influence of the oil type on the physicochemical properties of the gel was analyzed. The GM gels showed a solid-like behavior using either high oleic sunflower or sunflower oils but did not form a true gel with coconut oil. Although different oils could affect the crystal formation, all gels exhibited needle-like crystal morphology regardless solvent quality. The GM crystals arranged in a lamellar configuration are responsible for entrapping both SF and HOS oils. Degree of saturation of oils might affect GM oleogel properties. Long chain monounsaturated fatty acids favored the packing of GM crystals in a cohesive gel. Furthermore polymorphism with preferential crystalline β' form of GM was formed using a medium containing one and two unsaturation. In conclusion, it was observed that the type of oil influenced the formation of the GM gel network. These findings allow the better understanding of GM-based oleogels, providing opportunity to design for food products with improved technological and nutritional properties.

The potential gastrointestinal fate of oil-in-water emulsions containing lipid phases from different sources was examined: vegetable oils (corn, olive, sunflower, and canola oil); marine oils (fish and krill oil); flavor oils (orange and lemon oil); and, medium chain triglycerides (MCT). The lowest rates and extents of lipid digestion were observed for emulsified flavor oil, followed by emulsified krill oil. There was no appreciable difference between the final amounts of free fatty acids released for emulsified digestible oils. Differences in the digestibility of emulsions prepared using different oils were attributed to differences in their compositions, e.g., fatty acid chain length and unsaturation. The particle size distribution, particle charge, microstructure, and macroscopic appearance of the emulsions during passage through the simulated GIT depended on oil type. The results of this study may facilitate the design of functional foods that control the digestion and absorption of triglycerides, as well as the bioaccessibility of hydrophobic bioactives.

• The fatty acid composition of ten kind of edible oils were determined. • The quality of final fried fries changed more than other processing stages. • The volumetric shrinkage of fries is affected by water loss and crust formation. • The distribution of water and oil in the processing of fries was characterized. The production of French fries is a multistage process (blanching, pre-frying, freezing and final frying). Pre-stage processing can result in drastic changes related to the quality of the final product. In this study, we investigated the effect of multistage process on quality properties, water and oil distribution and microstructure of fries prepared with different oils. Results showed that freezing treatment had little effect on water and oil content, color and volumetric shrinkage of pre-fried fries. Final fried fries exhibited drastic changes involved in the content and status of water and oil, color, texture, volumetric shrinkage and microstructure compared with other processing stage. Besides, magnetic resonance imaging visualized a thicker crust in finish-fried fries. Among all the oils, fries fried in high-oleic sunflower oil showed the best mouthfeel. This will provide a theoretical guidance for food enterprise to produce high-quality French fries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
