Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for stabilizing a high internal phase oil-in-water emulsion by ion cross-linking a phenylalanine-aspartic acid copolymer and polylysine, and belongs to the fields of peptide surfactants and surface physical chemistry. Background Art

[0002] High Internal Phase Emulsion (HIPE) usually refers to an emulsion with an internal phase volume fraction greater than 74%. Since the volume of the discontinuous phase of the high internal phase emulsion is too high, the internal droplet size of the emulsion will be uneven or deformed. Some particle-stabilized Pickering high internal phase emulsions will undergo a phase reversal as the internal phase volume increases, while high internal phase emulsions stabilized by surfactant molecules will continue to stabilize the emulsion or demulsify as the internal phase volume increases. Due to the low proportion of the continuous phase, high internal phase emulsions often have high viscosity, so they are also called gel emulsions.

[0003] Emulsifiers used to prepare high internal phase emulsions in the prior art include synthetic polymers or inorganic particles, etc., but their application in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and food industries is limited due to their biological toxicity. Therefore, the development of environmentally friendly biocompatible particles as effective stabilizers has received special attention in recent years. Protein and polysaccharide derivatives in nature can be used as emulsifiers for high internal phase emulsions. Usually, protein particles stabilize oil-in-water (O / W) high internal phase emulsions. High internal phase emulsions have a larger discontinuous phase surface area than ordinary emulsions of the same volume. Utilizing this characteristic of high internal phase emulsions, high internal phase emulsions can be used as templates for porous materials, organic semiconductors, filtration membranes, tissue engineering scaffolds, food and drug delivery systems.

[0004] Zou Yanan (Food Science and Technology, 2022, 47(7): 129-133.) studied the effect of mung bean protein peptides with different hydrolysis degrees on the 10-minute stability of water-in-oil emulsions at pH 7.0. The results showed that with the increase of hydrolysis degree, the emulsification activity, emulsification stability, Zeta potential and surface hydrophobicity of the emulsion showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing. Wang Dan et al. (China Oils and Fats, 2024(003): 049.) studied the Pickering emulsion stability of soybean peptide nanoparticles (SPN). SPN was prepared by ultrasonic method using soybean peptide aggregates as raw materials. Soybean protein isolate (SPI) was introduced into the SPN system to construct a composite emulsifier. The effect of SPI on the interfacial activity of SPN and the 15-day emulsification stability under neutral pH conditions at different emulsifier mass concentrations was studied. Chinese patent CN202111548661.4 discloses that walnut meal is used as raw material, after defatting, alkali extraction and acid precipitation, trypsin is used for restricted enzymatic hydrolysis, and finally ultrafiltration separation and polysaccharide gel G25 gel chromatography separation and purification are used to obtain walnut polypeptides, and the emulsification properties under neutral conditions are investigated. CN201811525882.8 discloses a chitosan casein phosphopeptide composite nanoparticle stabilized Pickering high internal phase emulsion and its preparation. The emulsion stability is more than six months in the pH range of 4 to 6. However, the peptide emulsions reported in these prior art reports usually have a short stability period, or the emulsions have weak resistance to pH changes and can only maintain the emulsion within a limited pH range. In addition, the preparation of peptides from proteolysis requires strict control of the reaction conditions to ensure that the composition of each batch of products is roughly the same. Summary of the invention

[0005] [Technical issues]

[0006] The stabilizers used in the prior art for stabilizing Pickering high internal phase emulsions often have complicated preparation processes and unclear ingredients. Although they can maintain the stability of Pickering emulsions to a certain extent, their stability period is short or the emulsions are weak in their ability to withstand pH changes, and can only maintain the emulsions within a limited pH range. In view of the defects and deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for stabilizing a high internal phase water-in-oil emulsion by ionic crosslinking of a phenylalanine-aspartic acid copolymer and polylysine. The method uses a centrifugal pairing of the aspartic acid β-carboxyl group of the phenylalanine-aspartic acid copolymer and the amino group of the polylysine to form a crosslinking reaction (as shown below). Figure 1 The prepared high internal phase oil-in-water emulsion is stable in the range of pH = 1 to 11 for 6 to 24 months.
