Making of Massoia Lactone-Loaded and Food-Grade Nanoemulsions and Their Bioactivities against a Pathogenic Yeast

Nanoemulsions (NEs) have been made for improving the delivery and disperse of bioactive compounds. In this study, it was found that the best ingredients for the stable Massoia lactone-loaded and food-grade NEs making were 560.0 µL of Tween-80, 240.0 µL of Span-80 and 200.0 µL of Massoia lactone. The...

description Nanoemulsions (NEs) have been made for improving the delivery and disperse of bioactive compounds. In this study, it was found that the best ingredients for the stable Massoia lactone-loaded and food-grade NEs making were 560.0 µL of Tween-80, 240.0 µL of Span-80 and 200.0 µL of Massoia lactone. Then, 9.0 mL of distilled water was titrated into the mixture under continuous magnetic stirring (750 rotations min<sup>−1</sup>) with about 2 drops per second for 20 min. Finally, the system was treated by ultrasonication using an ultrasonic generator (180 W and 22 KHz) for 5 min. All the prepared particles with a mean droplet diameter of 43 nm were spherical, had uniform size distribution and were equally distributed in the Massoia lactone-loaded NEs. The obtained Massoia lactone-loaded nanoemulsions (NEs) were very stable without changes of the mean droplet diameter and polydispersity indexes (PDI) for over two months under different conditions. As with free Massoia lactone, Massoia lactone loaded in the NEs had high anti-fungal activity against <i>Metschnikowia bicuspidate</i> LIAO, a pathogenic yeast causing milky disease in the Chinese mitten crab by damaging its cell membrane and causing cellular necrosis. Massoia lactone loaded in the NEs also had the DPPH radical scavenging activity and the hydroxyl radical scavenging activity.
