“…In non-thermal processing, ultra-high-pressure homogenization [ 69 ], short-wave ultraviolet treatments [ 70 ] and pulsed electric field [ 71 ] can effectively inhibit the growth of microorganisms and extend the shelf life. On the other hand, studies have shown that the microencapsulation of tiger nut milk by a blend of inulin and modified tiger nut starch can make a product with good characteristics and shelf life [ 72 ].…”

The tiger nut is the tuber of Cyperus esculentus L., which is a high-quality wholesome crop that contains lipids, protein, starch, fiber, vitamins, minerals and bioactive factors. This article systematically reviewed the nutritional composition of tiger nuts; the processing methods for extracting oil, starch and other edible components; the physiochemical and functional characteristics; as well as their applications in food industry. Different extraction methods can affect functional and nutritional properties to a certain extent. At present, mechanical compression, alkaline methods and alkali extraction–acid precipitation are the most suitable methods for the production of its oil, starch and protein in the food industry, respectively. Based on traditional extraction methods, combination of innovative techniques aimed at yield and physiochemical characteristics is essential for the comprehensive utilization of nutrients. In addition, tiger nut has the radical scavenging ability, in vitro inhibition of lipid peroxidation, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects and displays medical properties. It has been made to milk, snacks, beverages and gluten-free bread. Despite their ancient use for food and feed and the many years of intense research, tiger nuts and their components still deserve further exploitation on the functional properties, modifications and intensive processing to make them suitable for industrial production.

“…The microsphere is a promising option, which is a kind of microparticle dispersion system formed by adsorbing or dispersing drugs in the polymer material. As an advanced delivery system, microspheres have been widely used in many fields, such as food, drug delivery, and cosmetics (Kim et al., 2012 ; Diarrassouba et al., 2015 ; Da Costa Neto et al., 2019 ; Hao et al., 2019 ). The function and application of microspheres have been actively explored.…”

Microspheres play an important role in controlling drug delivery and release rate accurately. To realize the sustainable release of insoluble small-molecule drugs, a new three-phase flow-focusing microfluidic device was developed to produce the drug-loaded sustained-release microspheres which were prepared with bicalutamide (BCS class-II) as the model drug and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) as the carrier material. Under optimized prescription conditions, the microspheres showed a smooth surface and uniform size of 51.33 μm with a CV value of 4.43%. Sustained-release microspheres had a releasing duration of around 40 days in vitro without any initial burst release. The drug release mechanism of the microspheres was drug diffusion and polymer erosion. Meanwhile, the drug release of microspheres in vivo could be up to 30 days. Briefly, the microfluidic device in this study provides a new solution for the preparation of sustained-release microspheres for insoluble small-molecule drugs. PLGA sustained-release microspheres developed by the microfluidic device have good application prospects in precise delivery and sustainable release of insoluble small-molecule drugs.

“…Microcapsule is composed of wall material and core material. The membrane formed outside the capsule is the wall material, also known as the shell, while the material embedded in the middle is the core material 2,3 . As a new technology, microcapsule technology has been extensively applied in various fields.…”

“…The wall material for manufacturing microcapsules include semisynthetic or natural. Several wall materials including proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids were widely applied in food field 3 . The physical and chemical properties of microcapsules depend on the wall material, and the appropriate wall material can effectively protect the core material 12 .…”

In this study, nano-SiO 2 /soy protein isolate composite film was prepared by casting method. The effects of (adding 0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 9% w/w) nano-SiO 2 on the properties of the resulting blend films were investigated. Results showed that the addition of 5% nano-SiO 2 exhibited good barrier properties.The mechanical properties including tensile strength and elongation at break of the film with 7% nano-SiO 2 is increased by 82.6% and 31.49% correspondingly. Differential scanning calorimetry indicated that the melting temperature of the composite film is increased by 56.6 C compared with the pure film. The wall material modified by nano-SiO 2 (adding 1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 9% w/w) was used for encapsulating walnut oil by spray drying. After accelerating oxidation test at 63 C for 12 days, we found that the encapsulation efficiency value of walnut oil microcapsules with 0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 9% nano-SiO 2 decreased by 64.23%, 48%, 21%, 22%, 21.00%, and 31% respectively. The results suggested that the stability of the core material was improved by adding nano-SiO 2 to the wall material.
