Herein, the effects of polysaccharide types (xanthan gum, XG; guar gum, GG; and konjac glucomannan, KGM), reaction time (0–24 h), and reaction pH (5–9) on the fish gelatin (FG)-polysaccharide Maillard products for the stabilization of fish oil-loaded emulsions were studied. FG-polysaccharide complexes also showed better emulsifying properties than pure fish gelatin and pure polysaccharides. Further, the formation, physicochemical properties, and emulsifying properties of FG-polysaccharide Maillard products were dependent on polysaccharide type, reaction time, and reaction pH. Maillard conjugates had the best emulsifying properties (FG-GG: 0% of creaming index (CI); FG-KGM: 21.1% ± 0.7% of CI) among the FG-GG and FG-KGM Millard products, whereas the intermediate products (intermediates and fish gelatin) had the best emulsifying properties (0% of CI) among the FG-XG Maillard products. This work provided useful information to apply FP-polysaccharide Maillard products for the stabilization of fish oil-loaded emulsions in the field of food science. • Maillard products of fish gelatin (FG) with three polysaccharides were obtained. • FG-polysaccharide complexes induced better emulsion creaming stability than FG. • Polysaccharide type, reaction time, and reaction pH affected Maillard products. • Maillard conjugates of FG-guar gum induced the best emulsion creaming stability. • Intermediate products of FG-xanthan gum induced the best emulsion creaming stability.

Lipid oxidation is a major challenge in the development and storage of lipid-containing food products. In this work, we extracted aquatic gelatin from silver carp scales and studied the effects of antioxidant types (water-soluble and lipid-soluble types) on the stabilization, lipid oxidation, and in vitro digestion behaviors of silver carp scale gelatin-stabilized fish oil-loaded emulsions. Vitamin C (VC), a water-soluble antioxidant, and vitamin E (VE), a lipid-soluble antioxidant, had no obvious effects on the appearance, droplet size distribution, and droplet stability of the emulsion. VC slowed the liquid-gel transition of the emulsions at room temperature. The emulsion creaming stability decreased with the increase of VC concentration, whereas it increased with the increase of VE concentration. Lipid oxidation hierarchy of emulsion groups at room temperature were VC
