Fabrication and characterization of zein/tea saponin composite nanoparticles as delivery vehicles of lutein

Enhancement of the physicochemical and in vitro release properties of lutein by gelatin/octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA)‐modified starch composite as vehicles

“…The fast dehydration process also favours the formation of amorphous powders as they disfavour molecular rearrangement and crystallisation (Wu et al ., 2019). Similar conversions of crystalline lutein into amorphous form were also reported in zein/tea saponin nanoparticles (Ma et al ., 2020) and zein/soluble soybean polysaccharide composite nanoparticles (Li et al ., 2020a).…”

“…The moisture content of microcapsules was determined using the AOAC method (AOAC, 2007). The solubility determination was performed by dissolving 0.10 g of microcapsules in 10 mL of distilled water with magnetic stirring applied at 25 °C for 30 min (Ma et al ., 2020). The supernatant was separated by centrifugation at 3000 g for 5 min and vacuum dried to a constant weight.…”

“…The humidity stability was estimated by respectively storing the freshly prepared microcapsules in incubators with the relative humidity (RH) of 33%, 68.86% and 93.58% for different durations (0‐9 days) (Ma et al ., 2020). Quantitative dispersions were taken at regular intervals (every 2 days), and quantitative analysis was performed by spectrophotometric analysis to determine the residual lutein content during the storage.…”

Chitosan-sodium alginate-fatty acid nanocarrier composite: lutein bioavailability, absorption pharmacokinetics in diabetic rat and protection of retinal cells against H2O2 induced oxidative stress in vitro

“…Another interesting study by H. Feng et al (2017) reported that lutein loaded emulsions prepared using corn ber gums also showed larger particle size 160-200 nm with lower -5.86 to -10.6 mV zeta potential. Similarly, Ma, Yuan, Yang, Wang, and Lv (2020) reported that lutein encapsulated zein/tea saponin composite nanoparticles displayed the larger particle size 117.9-231.1 nm. Also, Jiao et al (2018) reported that lutein encapsulated zein-derived peptides as nanocarriers showed more massive particle (297.7 -400 nm) than the present ndings with natural polymers (CS and SA).…”
