What is Modulation of Volatile Release and Antimicrobial Properties of Pink Pepper Essential Oil by Microencapsulation in Single- and Double-layer Structured Matrices about?

The bioactivity of essential oils applied in foods to act as natural preservatives can be reduced due to interactions with other components of the food matrix. Microencapsulation can help to increase the functionality of these compounds. In addition, the electrostatic interaction between proteins and polysaccharides can result in double-layered encapsulating structures, ensuring greater protection to essential oils than using only protein as surface active agent. In this work, pink pepper essential oil was microencapsulated by spray drying of single-layer emulsions, stabilized by soy protein isolate (SPI), and of double-layer emulsions, stabilized by soy protein isolate/high methoxyl pectin (SPI/HMP). Pink pepper essential oil showed predominance of α-pinene, β-pinene, β-mircene, δ-3-carene, d-limonene, and germacrene D. Compared to SPI microcapsules, SPI/HMP microcapsules better preserved the total volatile content identified in pure oil, showed less water adsorption during storage at relative humidity ≥75% and improved antimicrobial properties. When stored for 20 days (25 °C/RH = 52.8%), both microcapsules allowed more gradual release of volatiles compared with non-encapsulated o
