Abstract

This research explored the effect of media milling on complexation of corn starch (CS) and quercetin (QC), interaction mechanism and Pickering emulsifying ability of corn-quercetin (CS-QC) complex. CS-QC with QC/CS ratio of 1:24 had the highest encapsulation efficiency of 76.00 ± 1.30 %. Average volume-mean diameter, average whole molecular size (Rh) and debranchedamylopectinchain length of CS-QC were significantly decreased after milling. Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra confirmed the complexation between CS and QC. Emulsifying capacity and emulsion stability of Pickering emulsion stabilized by 5 % CS-QC complex particles after 120 min milling reached 100.00 % and 100.00. Pickering emulsions stabilized by these complex particles demonstrated superior oxidative stability. These results demonstrated that media milling could be an efficient physical approach to obtain starch-polyphenol complex by enhancing non-covalent interactions, which could not only be used as food-grade Pickering emulsifiers, but also retard lipid oxidation.
