The preparation of emulsion films using pre-emulsification has received extensive attention due to the enhancement of oil binding capacity. However, the different effects of water in oil (W/O) and oil in water (O/W) pre-emulsions on the physicochemical properties of films are still unclear. Therefore, the soy protein isolate (SPI) based emulsion films were prepared by W/O or O/W pre-emulsion using sucrose esters with different hydrophile-lipophile balances to investigate the properties of SPI emulsion (SPIE) films. The viscosity, storage moduli, and loss moduli of film-forming solutions (FFSs) with O/W pre-emulsion were higher than those of FFSs with W/O pre-emulsion. The oil droplets of FFSs with W/O pre-emulsion were large and uneven, and the oil droplet size increased after drying. Phase separation and macroporous network appeared in cross-sectional of SPIE films with W/O pre-emulsion according to scanning electron microscope images. Meanwhile, the SPIE films with W/O pre-emulsion demonstrated higher oil concentration and hydrophobicity on the upper surface compared with the SPIE films with O/W pre-emulsion. Low tensile strength, glass transition temperature, and high elongation at break and transparency value of SPIE films with O/W pre-emulsions were founded. The water vapor permeability of SPIE films with W/O pre-emulsion increased with the addition of oil, whereas the opposite trend appeared in that with O/W pre-emulsion. In conclusion, the structure and porosity of emulsion films could be affected by the pre-emulsion types, which can determine the application ranges.
Surimi-based products occupy an important position in the aquatic product processing industry. To enhance the quality and flavor of surimi-based products, the effects of pre-emulsified safflower seed oil on the texture, water-holding capacity (WHC), microstructure, and flavor ofNemipterus virgatussurimi gel was evaluated. The texture and whiteness of the gel were improved, and the WHC increased (p< 0.05) as the content of safflower seed oil increased up to 2 mL per 100 g surimi. Furthermore, the drops of pre-emulsified safflower seed oils with an average diameter of less than 0.10 μm were evenly distributed in gel matrix. Microstructure and infrared spectroscopy analyses indicated that low-content pre-emulsified safflower seed oil acted as filler particles to occupy void spaces, resulting in gel exhibiting a dense network structure. Volatile analysis showed the gel containing pre-emulsified oil enriched volatile compounds, mainly resulting from the oxidation and decomposition of oils by the activation of lipoxygenase, which synergistically contributes to unique flavors of gel. Consequently, low-content pre-emulsified safflower seed oil can used to enhance the quality and flavor ofN. virgatussurimi-based products. These findings are especially relevant to the current growing interest in low-fat and high-protein diets.Keywords:Nemipterus virgatussurimi;pre-emulsified safflower seed oil;gel texture;microstructure;flavor
