Abstrakt: The aim of this study was to fabricate novel transglutaminase (TGase)-mediated glycosylated whey protein isolate (WPI) nanoparticles for the encapsulation and delivery of curcumin. The influences of glycosylation on the physiochemical properties, stability, bioavailability, and antioxidant properties of WPI nanoparticles loaded with curcumin were investigated. Composite nanoparticles exhibited uniform distribution and small particle sizes. The main driving forces for the formation of curcumin nanoparticles were electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interactions. The encapsulation and loading efficiency of curcumin after TGase-type glycosylation were significantly increased in comparison to WPI-curcumin nanoparticles. Glycosylated WPI-curcumin nanoparticles had stronger antioxidant properties and stability to resist external environmental changes than WPI-curcumin nanoparticles. In addition, glycosylated WPI-curcumin nanoparticles showed a controlled release and enhanced curcumin bioavailability in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. This study provides novel insights for self-assembled glycosylated protein nanoparticles as delivery systems for protecting hydrophobic nutrients.
