DihydromyricetinProtein Pickering Emulsions: Interfacial Behavior, Rheology, and In Vitro Bioaccessibility

Protein-polyphenol-based delivery vehicles are effective strategies for encapsulating bioac- tive compounds, thereby enhancing their solubility and bioaccessibility. In this study, dihydromyricetin/soy protein isolate (DHM/SPI) complexes were used as emulsifiers to prepare Pickering emulsions for DHM delivery. The results show that DHM and SPI form negatively charged complexes through hydrogen bonding, and the complex size decreases and stabilizes with increasing DHM addition. The size of the...
