Abstrakt: The usage of starch nanoparticles for Pickering emulsion stabilization has become more popular for various benefits. This work investigated the potential of nano reduced starch as stabilizer in Pickering emulsions. Two different concentrations of starch nanoparticles (2.5 % and 5 %) were used for stabilization of apricot seed oil-in-water Pickering emulsion. Emulsion stabilized by 5 % starch nanoparticles (PE (5 %)) displayed zeta potential of -46.92 mV and emulsions stabilized by 2.5 % starch nanoparticles (PE (2.5 %)) exhibited zeta potential of -15.33 mV. In PE (2.5 %) after 24 h, creaming index (CI) was 12 %. CI remained zero in PE (5 %) after 30 days of storage period.PE (2.5 %) and apricot oil (AO) showed higher peroxide value than PE (5 %). Malondialdehyde (MDA) content of AO was 156.02 mmol/kg oil after 30 day storage period at 45 °C. Comparatively, PE (5 %) possessed lower MDA content (36.02 mmol/kg oil). The findings revealed that starch nanoparticles can be used as stabilizer in Pickering emulsions for stabilization and preventing lipid oxidation in polyunsaturated fatty acid rich oils. This study introduces a sustainable approach to enhance the stability of apricot seed oil using underutilized starch nanoparticles.
