Newest firstCream fillings are widely used semi-solid components in confectionery products, where the fat phase strongly influences the structure, stability, and sensory characteristics. Increasing consumer demand for plant-based and nutritionally improved foods has stimulated efforts to reduce the palm oil content and incorporate plant-derived proteins; however, systematic studies comparing the functional impact of different…
Open article record in new tab ↗Hempseed protein isolate (HPI), a novel plant protein, possesses advantages as an alternative food protein from a nutritional and sustainable perspective. This study investigated HPI modification by examining the effects of high-pressure homogenization combined with high-intensity ultrasound (HPH + HIU) on the physicochemical and functionality of HPI. Firstly, the optimal homogenization pressure (180 MPa) was sele…
Essential oils (EOs) represent natural bioactive agents with broad applications; however, their industrial utilization is often hampered by inherent volatility and instability, which current encapsulation methods struggle to overcome due to limitations such as reliance on synthetic surfactants. Proteins, owing to their amphiphilic nature, serve as materials for EOs microencapsulation, particularly when chemically…
Open article record in new tab ↗Given the growing interest in non-toxic materials with good anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial mechanical properties, this work focuses on preparing chitosan sponges with violacein and cannabis oil crosslinked with dialdehyde chitosan. The sponge was tested for its physicochemical and biological properties, presenting a high swelling rate, good thermal stability, and satisfactory mechanical properties. The obtain…
Open article record in new tab ↗The aim of this study was to encapsulate cannabidiol (CBD) extract in nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) to improve the chemical stability and anti-inflammatory activity of CBD for dermal delivery. CBD-loaded NLCs (CBD-NLCs) were prepared using cetyl palmitate (CP) as a solid lipid and stabilized with Tego® Care 450 (TG450) or poloxamer 188 (P188) by high-pressure homogenization (HPH). The CBD extract was loaded…
The structural and physicochemical characteristics of oil bodies from hemp seeds were explored in this study. Oil bodies from several plant-based sources have been previously studied; however, this is the first time a characterisation of oil bodies from the seeds of industrial hemp is provided. The morphology of oil bodies in hemp seeds and after extraction was investigated using cryo-scanning electron microscopy…
Open article record in new tab ↗The aim of this study was to determine the key physicochemical, sensory and quality attributes of plant-based yogurts made from soy, coconut, cashew, almond and hemp, including a dairy benchmark yogurt. The soy, coconut and cashew-based yogurts showed textural parameters comparable to the dairy yogurt, with firmness values of 0.46, 0.44, 0.51 and 0.36 N, respectively. Rheological analysis showed that one of the so…
