Popis: Surimi gels containing β-glucan stabilized virgin coconut oil (VCO) were subjected to simulated gastrointestinal digestion and the resulting digest was analyzed for nutraceutical properties. β-glucan stabilized VCO nanoemulsion (βG-V-N) remarkably improved antioxidant activities of the surimi digest. When epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) was added in nanoemulsion, the surimi digest showed the highest antioxidant activities. Antidiabetic activity of the digest was also improved by the addition of βG-V-N comprising EGCG. Nevertheless, the addition of βG-V-N lowered ACE inhibitory activity of surimi digest. The surimi digest from the gel added with βG-V-N possessed an inhibitory effect on five cancer cell lines including HEK (Human embryonic kidney 293 cells), MCF-7 (breast cancer cell line), U87 (human glioma), HeLa (human cervical cancer), and IMR-32 (human neuroblastoma), regardless of EGCG or α-tocopherol incorporated. This study demonstrated that surimi gel supplemented with βG-V-N in the presence of EGCG exhibited nutraceutical potential and could be used as a functional food.
