Acinetobacter calcoaceticus BD4 and BD413 produce extracellular emulsifying agents when grown on 2% ethanol medium. For emulsifying activity, both polysaccharide and protein fractions were required, as demonstrated by selective digestion of the polysaccharide with a specific bacteriophage-borne polysaccharide depolymerase, deproteinization of the extracellular emulsifying complex with hot pheno...

To understand the structure-function relationship of an anionic lipopolysaccharide emulsan, the effect of hydrodynamic volume on the emulsifying activity was investigated. As a result, it was found that the hydrodynamic volume of emulsan was an important factor in its emulsifying activity. The hydrodynamic volume was decreased by the addition of a positively charged polypeptide, and the emulsif...

This work characterizes the emulsifying properties of systems containing egg yolk (0.1; 1.0 and 2.5 % w/v) and polysaccharides (xanthan gum, carrageen, pectin and carboxymethylcellulose) and three different vegetable oils (sunflower, canola, and palm oils). Emulsifying activity and emulsion stability were measured of each combination and it was found the effect of the oil on emulsion stability ...

Corn gluten meal with good emulsifying activity and emulsion stability may have potential in food uses. Commercial corn gluten meal from various producers had a pH around 4 and showed no emulsifying activity. Reducing the particle size to below 15/-lm or increasing the pH to 6.6 (with particle size above 53/-lm) did not improve the emulsifying activity. When the particle size was reduced to bel...

Cereal Chem. 66(4):263-267 Emulsifying capacity and emulsion stability of hexane-defatted corn content; 70.39% water was retained by the emulsion. High emulsion germ protein obtained by modified and conventional extraction processes stability was obtained as the result of specific protein properties. Increasing were studied. Defatted corn germ protein obtained by the modified fat content in emu...

Oral route is the most common and convenient route for drug delivery, but some drugs are not given by this route. This route is most common problem is low bioavailability .The various challenges faced by the pharmaceutical scientists leads to the improve bioavailibilityty enhance the approach of self emulsifying drug delivery system. It has gained exposure of their ability to increase solubilit...

This paper deals with the extraction and emulsifying properties of proteins from Chlorella vulgaris. Solubilisation of proteins has been achieved using high pressure cell disrupter under pH=7 or pH=12. The higher solubilisation yield (52±3%w/w) was obtained using a combination of alkaline conditions and mechanical treatments (2.7kbar). After solubilisation, proteins were recovered by two proced...

conclusions this study demonstrated that physicochemical properties, in vitro release and rat intestine permeability were dependent upon the contents of s/c, water and oil percentage in formulations. background self-emulsifying drug delivery system is an isotropic mixture of natural or synthetic oils, non-ionic surfactants or, one or more hydrophilic solvent and co-solvents/surfactant and polym...

The goal of our investigation was to develop oral solution of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) by using self-emulsifying systems. CoQ10 is practically insoluble in water. Therefore, it is difficult to develop oral solution of CoQ10. To solubilize CoQ10 and to develop it as oral solution, self-emulsifying systems consisted of oil, surfactant and co-surfactant were studied and using the self-emulsifying syst...

Buttermilk is a dairy ingredient widely used in the food industry because of its emulsifying capacity and its positive impact on flavor. Commercial buttermilk is sweet buttermilk, a by-product from churning sweet cream into butter. However, other sources of buttermilk exist, including cultured and whey buttermilk obtained from churning of cultured cream and whey cream, respectively. The composi...
