Preparation and Characterization of Pickering Emulsions with Modified Okara Insoluble Dietary Fiber.

ABSTRACT: Modified okara insoluble dietary fiber (OIDF) has attracted great interest as a promising Pickering emulsifier. At present, the modification methods are mainly physicochemical methods, and the research on microbial modified OIDF as stabilizer is not clear. In this work, modified OIDF was prepared by yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus fermentation. The potential of modified OIDF as a Pickering emulsifier and the formation and stability of OIDF-Pickering emulsions stabilized by modified OIDF were characterized, respectively. The results showed that the specific surface area, hydrophilicity, and electronegativity of the modified OIDF were all enhanced compared with the unmodified OIDF. The existence of the network structure between droplets is the key to maintain the stability of the emulsions, as
