Overview

Randomized trial shows enhanced printability in 3D food printing using optimized dual-polysaccharide systems, suggesting innovative material design.

Key Points

  • The aim was to investigate how anionic and neutral polysaccharides affect the printability of high internal phase Pickering emulsions.
  • Developed high internal phase Pickering emulsions stabilized by whey protein isolate with κ-carrageenan and curdlan gum.
  • Optimized concentrations of κ-carrageenan at 1.2% and curdlan gum at 1.6% for improved printability.
  • Conducted rheological and textural analyses to assess yield stress and self-supporting capacity.
  • Ternary system exhibited significantly greater oil-phase wettability with a contact angle of 86.22 ± 0.74° (p < 0.05).
  • Yield stress was primarily governed by κ-carrageenan concentration, optimal at 1.2%.
  • Ternary emulsions demonstrated superior 3D printing accuracy and structural integrity compared to binary systems.
