摘要: 本研究开发了以乳清分离蛋白(whey protein isolate,WPI)和二十二碳六烯酸磷脂(docosahexaenoic acid-containing phospholipid,DHAPL)为复合乳化剂的水包油(oil-in-water,O/W)乳液,用于包封岩藻黄质(fucoxanthin,FX),旨在提升其热稳定性、抗氧化能力、生物可及性以及对RAW264.7巨噬细胞氧化损伤的保护作用。DHAPL-WPI复合物表现出优异的包封率(>94%),远超传统的单一WPI体系,其中长链DHAPL(如DHAPL-MP/MG)效果较优。该杂化乳化剂结构赋予乳液卓越的热稳定性,在严苛条件(75 ℃/0.5 h)下仍能保持超过80%的FX完整性,并在25 ℃条件下展现出优异的贮藏稳定性。此外,DHAPL-WPI体系克服了疏水性生物活性物质生物利用度的关键限制,在体外模拟消化中实现了70%的FX生物可及性,较游离FX提高了1.8 倍。复合物的双界面抗氧化机制显著增强了自由基清除能力,使2,2’-联氮双(3-乙基苯并噻唑啉-6-磺酸)阳离子自由基清除率、1,1-二苯基-2-三硝基苯肼自由基清除率提高了35%~42%,同时为RAW264.7巨噬细胞提供了强大的抗氧化应激保护作用,其中,中短链DHAPL效果更优异。本研究构建的生物活性物质负载体系为功能性食品开发提供了一种有效的包封解决方案,成功克服了食品的疏水性活性成分在热加工过程中不稳定和肠道吸收效率低的双重瓶颈问题。

Abstract: This study developed an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion using complexes of whey protein isolate (WPI) and docosahexaenoic acid-containing phospholipid (DHAPL) as emulsifiers for encapsulating fucoxanthin (FX), aiming to enhance its thermal stability, antioxidant capacity, bioaccessibility, and protective effects against oxidative damage in RAW264.7 macrophages. The emulsions stabilized by WPI-DHAPL complexes demonstrated excellent encapsulation efficiency for FX (> 94%), significantly surpassing the WPI-stabilized emulsion, with long-chain DHAPL (e.g., DHA-containing phosphatidyl monopalmitoyl glycerol (DHAPL-MP) and DHA-containing phosphatidyl monostearate glycerol (DHAPL-MG)) being more effective in this regard. The structure of the mixed emulsifiers endowed the emulsion with outstanding thermal stability, maintaining over 80% of FX under harsh conditions (75 ℃/0.5 h), and the FX-loaded emulsion exhibited excellent storage stability at 25 ℃. Furthermore, the DHAPL-WPI system overcame the key limitation on the bioavailability of hydrophobic bioactive substances, resulting in 70% FX bioaccessibility during in vitro simulated digestion, which was 2.8 times higher than that of free FX. The dual-interfacial antioxidant mechanism of the WPI-DHAPL complex significantly enhanced the free radical scavenging capacity of FX, increasing the 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) cation racial and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) racial scavenging rates by 35%–42%. It also provided strong protection against oxidative stress in RAW264.7 macrophages, with medium- and short-chain DHAPL showing more pronounced effects. The bioactive substance delivery system developed in this study provides an effective encapsulation solution for functional food development, successfully overcoming the dual bottlenecks of thermal instability and low intestinal absorption efficiency of hydrophobic active ingredients in the food industry.
