Effect of High-Pressure Homogenization and Wall Material Composition on the Encapsulation of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids from Fish Processing by Ioanna Semenoglou, Maria Katsouli, Maria Giannakourou, Petros Taoukis

“…Fish oil, a rich source of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), is a vital nutritional component, but considering its susceptibility to oxidation, it could benefit from an effective encapsulation system. This study aims to optimize high-pressure homogenization (HPH) parameters (pressure, number of passes) and wall material composition to maximize the encapsulation efficiency (EE) of fish oil, using different concentrations of maltodextrin with Arabic gum or sodium alginate. …”
