    The practical application of protein hydrolysates as functional food ingredients is frequently obstructed by their inherent structural instability. To circumvent this limitation, liposomal encapsulation has emerged as a sophisticated strategy to bolster the bioactivity and integrity of cricket-derived proteins. In this study, varying concentrations (1–4% w/v) of defatted cricket protein hydrolysate (DCPH) were integrated into vesicles composed of soy lecithin and cholesterol. The highest encapsulation efficiency (EE) was observed at a 2% DCPH loading capacity, yielding a significant result of 88.18% (p < 0.05). Subsequent coating with sodium alginate (SA) at 0.1–0.3% (w/v) resulted in an increase in particle size and a more pronounced negative surface charge. When maintained at 4 °C over a 24-day duration, the SA-coated liposome (SA-L-2%DCPH) exhibited superior stability compared to its uncoated (L-2%DCPH) counterpart. Also, the digest derived from the SA-L-2%DCPH exhibited significantly enhanced transepithelial permeability across the Caco-2 cell monolayer, indicated by the higher protein content and ABTS radical scavenging activity. Thus, sodium alginate-coated liposomes serve as a promising delivery system for encapsulating DCPH both during storage stability and in the gastrointestinal digestion system.

    Djenkol peel is an agricultural by-product containing valuable bioactive compounds. The direct use of its extract faces challenges related to stability and sensory acceptance. This study aimed to investigate the effect of djenkol peel extract (DPE) on the encapsulation efficiency (EE) using liposomes. The physicochemical properties, antioxidant activities, and cytotoxicity of the obtained liposomes were evaluated. DPE (0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 %, w/v) was encapsulated using phospholipid/cholesterol as the wall material. The highest EE (66.69 %) was observed in the liposomes loaded with 0.25 % (w/v) DPE (LE-0.25DPE) (P < 0.05). All DPE-loaded liposomes displayed nanometer-scale particle sizes (78.94–135.60 nm) and negative zeta potentials (−52.60 to −57.50 mV). Encapsulation of DPE in liposomes can mask its undesirable color. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed changes in the physicochemical and thermal properties of LE-0.25DPE. Additionally, LE-0.25DPE showed increased DPPH radical-scavenging activity (DPPH-RSA) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) in a dose-dependent manner (250–2000 μg/mL). In vitro Caco-2 cell viability test, LE-0.25DPE at 0.1–1 μg/mL exhibited no cytotoxicity compared to the control (P < 0.05). Thus, DPE-loaded liposomes demonstrate potential as a functional food ingredient with high bioactivity.

    This study aimed to compare the characteristics, antioxidant activity, and cytotoxicity of Ganoderma lucidum G2 spore (GLS) oil extracted using two different extraction methods, including Soxhlet extraction (SLE) and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE). The SLE method yielded higher oil content than the MAE method. MAE-extracted oil showed higher lightness (L*) and yellowness (b*) values but lower redness (a*) values. Both methods provided similar fatty acid compositions in GLS oils, including palmitic acid, oleic acid, and linoleic acid as major components. Higher saturated fatty acid content was found in SLE-extracted oil, while MAE-extracted oil had increased levels of mono- and poly-unsaturated fatty acids. The oil obtained from SLE showed slightly higher di- and tri-glycerides than that obtained from MAE (P < 0.05). Furthermore, MAE-extracted oil had high oxidative stability as indicated by lower levels of conjugated diene (CD), peroxide value (PV), thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), and free fatty acids (FFA) as compared to SLE (P < 0.05). MAE-extracted oil had a higher total triterpenoid content than SLE-extracted oil (P < 0.05). Also, MAE-extracted oil showed lower DPPH radical scavenging activity (DPPH-RSA) than SLE-extracted oil (P < 0.05). FTIR spectra of both samples exhibited similar functional groups. Additionally, oils obtained from both processes (at 0.1–10 µg/mL) showed low toxicity on Caco-2 cells (P > 0.05). Therefore, GLS oil with high antioxidant activity and oxidative stability, especially oil extracted by MAE, could be a food supplement for health. Also, the MAE used was a potential implement for extracting oil from GLS.

    Shallots and purple sweet potatoes often encounter the falling prices situation, thus their processing as the new product helps to increase the value-added. The purpose of this research was to study the ratios of pounded shallot to mashed purple potato for jam production, the quantity of pectin, and the chemical and physical characteristics of the developed jam. Firstly, the optimum formulation for preparation of jam from purple sweet potato and shallot was sensorial evaluated using a 9-pointed hedonic scale. The result was found that the highest sensory acceptance score by the panelists (n = 30) was observed in jam containing purple sweet potato and shallot in the ratio of 25: 75 (w/ w) . Furthermore, adding of 2% pectin in the selected formulation received significantly higher sensory scores for texture and overall acceptability than other samples (p <0.05). The optimum formulation of purple sweet potato and shallot jam consisted of crushed shallots, mashed purple potatoes, water, sugar, lime juice, salt and pectin in amounts of 8.29%, 24.87%, 33.16%, 31.17%, 0.50%, 0.01% and 2.00%, respectively.
