“…In recent years, research on the practical applications of D-limonene has continued; however, despite its proven bioactivity, its hydrophobicity, volatility, and sensitivity to heat, light, oxygen, and moisture are affected by environmental factors (e.g., oxygen, light, and temperature) when applied directly to food systems and its oxidation gives off unpleasant odors, which, together with its own strong aromatic odor, can interfere with the sensory properties of the food to which they are added [22], which limits its application in food [23,24]. Currently, researchers are improving the physicochemical properties and bioactivity of D-limonene by producing new materials, such as nanoemulsions and nanofilms, through encapsulation and other techniques, and applying them in practical applications [25]. For instance, nanoemulsions of sodium caseinate and D-limonene in specific ratios were generated using high-pressure homogenization, which significantly improved preservation and thermal stability.…”
