pH-driven assembly of soy proteins into nanoparticles for efficient curcumin delivery: Role of β-conglycinin and glycinin subunits

Key Points

• Effective curcumin delivery is achieved through the assembly of soy protein nanoparticles, indicating improved bioavailability.
• The study reveals that β-conglycinin and glycinin subunits play critical roles in the nanoparticle formation under varying pH conditions.
• Analytical techniques were used to examine the pH-driven assembly and characterize the nanoparticles produced from soy proteins.
• This strategy may enhance curcumin delivery for therapeutic applications, potentially improving treatment efficacy.
