Antioxidant Activities of Co-Encapsulated Natal Plum (<i>Carissa macrocarpa</i>) Juice Inoculated with <i>Ltp. plantarum 75</i> in Different Biopolymeric Matrices after In Vitro Digestion

Biopolymeric systems that co-encapsulate probiotics and bioactive compounds ensure timely delivery in the gastrointestinal tract. Cyanidin 3-sambubioside is the dominant anthocyanin in Natal plum (<i>Carissa macrocarpa</i>). This study aims at the co-encapsulation of Natal plum (<i>...

description Biopolymeric systems that co-encapsulate probiotics and bioactive compounds ensure timely delivery in the gastrointestinal tract. Cyanidin 3-sambubioside is the dominant anthocyanin in Natal plum (<i>Carissa macrocarpa</i>). This study aims at the co-encapsulation of Natal plum (<i>Carissa macrocarpa</i>) juice inoculated with <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> 75 (<i>Ltp. plantarum 75</i>) by freeze-drying using pea protein isolate, maltodextrin, and psyllium mucilage and evaluating their release in vitro. An encapsulation efficiency of >85% was noted in lactic acid bacteria (LAB) survival and anthocyanin content. Freeze-drying produced pinkish-red powder, rich in polyphenols and LAB (>6 Log CFU mL<sup>−1</sup>) after 14 days of storage. Natal plum juice + maltodextrin + pea protein isolate + psyllium mucilage + <i>Ltp. plantarum 75</i> (NMPeaPsyB) showed the highest LAB population (6.74 Log CFU mL<sup>−1</sup>) with a survival rate of 81.9%. After digestion, NMPeaPsyB and NMPeaPsy had the highest LAB survival (>50%) at 67.5% and 67.5 ± 0.75%, respectively, and the highest bioaccessibility of cyanidin 3-sambubioside in Natal plum juice than the other co-encapsulation with other biopolymers. NMPeaPsy and NMPeaPsyB showed phenolic stability in the gastric phase and controlled release in the intestinal simulated phase. The antioxidant activities had strong correlations with cyanidin 3-sambubioside. The results confirmed that microencapsulation is important for improving stability and allowing for the development of functional foods.
