Pickering emulsions for intelligent curcumin delivery: Synergistic stabilization by starch nanocrystals and soy β-conglycinin or glycinin.
Starch nanocrystals (SNCs) derived from rice starch were complexed with soybean β-conglycinin (7S) or glycinin (11S) to develop food-grade Pickering emulsifiers for curcumin delivery. The effects of the SNC-to-protein mass ratio on particle structure, interfacial properties, emulsion stability, and gastrointestinal dig...
