Ultrasound-Assisted Fucoidan Double Emulsions in Yogurt: In Vitro Gastrointestinal Digestion and Lactic Acid Bacteria Viability
Background: Fucoidan is a sulphated polysaccharide from brown seaweed with reported antioxidant activity, but its high molecular weight and hydrophilicity limit its incorporation into food matrices. Method: To address this, fucoidan was encapsulated in a water-in-oil-in-water (W1/O/W2) double emulsion (FuD) prepared by...
