Abstract

To obtain a stable protein–added emulsion system, researchers have focused on the design of the oil–water interface. This review discussed the updated details of protein adsorption behavior at the oil–water interface. We evaluated methods of monitoring interfacial proteins as well as their strengths and limitations. Based on the effects of structure on protein adsorption, we summarized the contribution of pre–changing methods to adsorption. In addition, the interaction of proteins and other surface–active molecules at the interface had been emphasized. Results showed that protein adsorption is affected by conformation, oil polarity and aqueous environments. The monitoring of interfacial proteins through spectroscopic properties in actual emulsion systems is an emerging trend. Pre–changing could improve the protein adsorption and the purpose of pre–changing of proteins is similar. In the interaction with other surface–active molecules, co–adsorption is desirable. By co–adsorption, the respective advantages can be exploited to obtain a more stable emulsion system.
