- Abstract
An antioxidant amyloid fibril was prepared as an emulsifier by fibrillating limited enzymatic hydrolysis-modified rice protein (HRP). The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using fibrillated HRP to stabilize oil-in-water emulsion. A free radical scavenging assay revealed that the antioxidant activity of fibrillated HRP was 2.09 times higher than that of native rice protein. Fibrillated HRP demonstrated a marked reduction in interfacial tension, increased surface hydrophobicity and contact angle (> 80°), and rapid adsorption to the interface, with 35.34 ± 2.43% interfacial adsorbed protein content. The fibrillated HRP barriers resisted environment stresses such as NaCl, pH variations, long-term storage, while reducing lipid oxidation degree. Additionally, fibrillated HRP-based emulsion was more effective in protecting β-carotene from degradation compared to other samples. These findings provide theoretical support for the development of rice protein-based antioxidant emulsifiers and modification of emulsifying properties of plant proteins., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Ltd.
