Abstract
Complexes formed between heated whey protein isolate (HWPI) and octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA)-modified starches were prepared to stabilize β-carotene-containing oil-in-water emulsions. The zeta-potential, turbidity, particle size, and microstructure of the complexes were determined to evaluate the impact of the degree of substitution (DS) of OSA-modified starch on the complexes' structure. HWPI and OSA-modified starches with low DS values formed elongated complexes. With increasing DS, the particle size of the complexes reduced. In comparison to the emulsions stabilized by HWPI or OSA-modified starches, the emulsions stabilized by HWPI/OSAS complexes exhibited superior protection of β-carotene during storage under acidic conditions. When the DS of OSA-modified starch increased, the particle size of emulsions stabilized by the complexes decreased, with less droplet aggregation occurring. The physical stability of these emulsions against storage time, ions, and thermal process showed a positive relationship with the DS, while the β-carotene retention in the emulsions during storage showed a negative relationship with the DS. The greater physical stability of the complex-stabilized emulsions containing OSA-modified starch with a higher DS may be ascribed to enhanced electrostatic repulsion among oil droplets and the formation of a more rigid and denser surface structure in the presence of more OSA groups.
