Abstract
Anthocyanins, one of the important water-soluble pigments, are sensitive to environmental factors, which limits the application of anthocyanins in food field. In order to overcome this limitation, double Pickering emulsions stabilized by β-cyclodextrin were developed. The optimum preparation conditions of the emulsions were determined firstly and the performance and structure of emulsions were investigated. Results showed that the optimum preparation conditions of emulsions were the ratio of (W1/O): W2 = 6:4 and 4 % β-cyclodextrin concentration. Optical microscope and confocal laser scanning microscope results confirmed that β-cyclodextrin adsorbed onto the surface of droplets forming stable double Pickering emulsions structure. In vitro gastrointestinal digestion experiments proved that double Pickering emulsions played a controlled-release effect in the small intestine. Rheological analysis proved that the emulsions exhibited elastic properties and demonstrated shear thinning behavior. The emulsions showed excellent stability under centrifugation and thermal conditions. These findings will promote anthocyanins’ application in daily diet.
