Abstract

The aim of this study was to develop yeast-based microcapsules (YBMCs) containing vegetable oil blends with n3/n6 fatty acids in a ratio of 5:1. The oil blends, as well as YBMCs with these oils, were analyzed in nitrogen and oxygen. The shape and course of the TG and DTG curves were observed for yeast cells with all types of oil blends. No differences were observed in shape because of the microencapsulation curves with all oil blends between YMBCs prepared using native and autolyzed yeast. The results show that the yeast cells could be used as efficient microcarriers for the encapsulation of cold-pressed oils in order to provide thermal stable ingredients for the food industry.

1 Introduction

A properly balanced diet should contain an adequate amount of fat [1]. However, it is worth remembering that fats and oils of various origins differ significantly not only in their nutritional values but also in their technological properties [2,3]. The presence of various fatty acids and also many other phytocomponents present in vegetable oils, such as vitamins, phenolic compounds, and dyes, can limit oxidative changes in unsaturated fatty acids during oil storage [4,5,6]. However, despite the presence of the above-mentioned compounds in cold-pressed oils, many of them are not recommended for use in dishes prepared at high temperatures [7]. Changes in oils during heating not only reduce the quality and nutritional value of oils but may also lead to the formation of compounds that are potentially harmful to our health [8,9].

In the context of changes in the eating habits of many consumers and limiting the consumption of animal products, especially fish, it also seems crucial to ensure access to appropriate quality oils with a favorable n3/n6 fatty acid ratio [10]. The deficiency of n3 acids in plant-based diets is particularly important, and it is necessary to create products that are a good source of them [11]. Blends of vegetable oils in the right proportions may have nutritionally beneficial properties. Our previous research has shown that it is possible to compose oil blends from various vegetable oils that will be characterized by an appropriate and recommended nutritional point of view with a n6/n3 ratio of 5:1 [12,13]. Some of the raw materials used for grinding the blends are also characterized by very high variability of technological properties, which is why three compositions of oil blends were selected that have an economic justification for their use. Unfortunately, these oil blends may also be characterized by different, sometimes low, stability during thermal processing; therefore, it seems advisable to use different methods of protecting the oils against the influence of external factors. Among many methods described in the literature, immobilization in biopolymers or yeast cells is most often suggested [14,15,16,17]. The microcapsules prepared in this way are characterized by higher thermal stability and slow down the degradation changes in the oils immobilized inside. The use of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) allows for quick and precise observation of thermal changes over a wide temperature range [18,19]. Unlike traditional methods of heating the material and analyzing it under specific conditions, TGA allows for a complete analysis of the entire temperature range and changes occurring therein.

Taking into account the above, the yeast-based microcapsules (YBMCs) containing vegetable oil blends developed using the patented method [20] were analyzed in detail in the context of changes during heating using the TGA method.

2 Materials and methods

2.1 Sample materials

The study examined three oil blends made from cold-pressed oils, such as rapeseed, black cumin, wheat germ, evening primrose, and camelina, along with refined rice bran oil. These oils were obtained directly from the manufacturers, with the cold-pressed oils sourced from SemCo (Śmiłowo, Poland) and the rice bran oil from Kasisuri Group (Bangkok, Thailand). The blends were created by mixing the individual oils according to the designated ratios, as shown in Table 1.

REp Rapeseed oil Evening primrose oil 65 35
CRb Camelina oil Rice bran oil 12 88

2.2 YBMC preparation

To eliminate any residual culture medium and cell debris, Saccharomyces cerevisiae baker’s yeast was subjected to a triple rinse with 0.01 M phosphate buffer in a 5:1 buffer/yeast ratio, followed by centrifugation to separate the biomass. After each rinse, the buffer was decanted, and the yeast was frozen, freeze-dried, and ground. The resulting native yeast (NY) was used for further encapsulation. To enhance the yeast’s capacity for encapsulation, the washed NY biomass was subjected to autolysis by adjusting the pH to 5.5 with 0.5 N HCl and incubating at 55°C for 48 h with stirring. After rinsing and freeze-drying, the autolyzed yeast (AY) was used for encapsulation. The microencapsulation of oil blends in yeast biomass followed a procedure based on our methodology, outlined in a Polish patent application [20] and described in detail previously [21]. This involved preparing a pre-emulsion by homogenizing a water-emulsifier solution with the oil blend, followed by ultrasonic homogenization to form the final emulsion. The mixture was then incubated with agitation, centrifuged to separate the biomass, washed, and freeze-dried. The resulting YBMCs were stored for TGA at −20°C.

2.3 TGA

The analyses were performed using a Discovery TGA (TA Instruments, New Castle, DE, USA [22]. Briefly, measurements were made under nitrogen and oxygen at a flow rate of 25 mL·min−1. Samples (7–8 mg) were placed in platinum containers. The range of operation was from 50 to 1,000°C, and measurements were made with a heating rate of 10°C·min−1 [23]. TGA curves were obtained for temperature dependence on mass loss, and the first derivative thermogravimetric (DTG) was calculated.

3 Results and discussion

The results for the research of REp (rapeseed oil and evening primrose oil) oil blend, RBWg (rapeseed oil, black cumin oil, and wheat germ oil) oil blend, and CRb (camelina oil and rice bran oil) oil blend in an atmosphere of nitrogen are shown in Figure 1a–c.

The TG and DTG curves were characterized by a similar, mild course in the nitrogen atmosphere for all types of oil blends. The thermal decomposition occurred over the temperature range of 267.88–497.96°C and corresponded to the mass loss of 100% for all oil blends. Nitrogen is an inert gas and allows analysis of the thermal resistance of the studied oil blends. The maximum temperature peaks were observed at 406.68, 404.02, and 403.91°C for REp, RBWg, and CRb oil blends, respectively.

Figure 2a–c shows the TG and DTG curves of REp, RBWg, and CRb oil blends in an atmosphere of pure oxygen.

The mixture of rapeseed and evening primrose oils was thermally stable up to a temperature of 192.04°C, as shown by the TG curve in Figure 2a. The first stage of decomposition of the REp oil blend occurred within the temperature range from 193.56 to 402.76°C, and mass loss was 65.71%. In this range, the maximum loss occurred at 257.23°C. The sharpness of the obtained phase transition was characterized by one distinct peak and a mild peak (Figure 2a). de Souza et al. [24] found that the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids was responsible for this transformation. Polyunsaturated fatty acids were the main component of triacylglycerols in this oil blend [21].

The RBWg and CRb oil blends were characterized by similar values of ranges of transitions – from 196.47 to 402.79°C and from 192.60 to 393.51°C, respectively. Mass loss for the transitions obtained 65.24 and 59.24%, respectively. The maximum temperatures of peaks for the first transition were obtained for the RBWg oil blend at 273.30°C and for the CRb oil blend at 270.84°C (Figure 2b and c).

Szabo et al. [25] and de Souza et al. [24] described the second stage of decomposition of edible oils and fats. The second stage of decomposition of edible oils and fats is the decomposition of monounsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid. The transition was obtained for all oil blends. The temperature ranges for oil blends were obtained from 403.68 to 464.41°C for the REp oil blend (Figure 2a), from 403.68 to 464.11°C for the RBWg oil blend (Figure 2b), and from 394.26 to 446.41°C for the CRb oil blend (Figure 2c). The maximum temperature peaks for the second transition were obtained for the REp oil blend at 406.07°C, for the RBWg oil blend at 405.35°C, and for the CRb oil blend at 398.50°C (Figure 2a–c). In the second stage, mass loss for the REp oil blend was characterized by a value of 17.18%; for the RBWg oil blend, it was 17.82%, and for the CRb oil blend, it was 23.93% (Figure 2a–c). The peaks were characterized by very sharp courses, which could indicate a very violent oxidation reaction.

The peaks of the third stage were characterized by mild course and low intensity. The temperature ranges for oil blends were obtained from 465.78 to 554.93°C for the REp oil blend (Figure 2a), from 469.24 to 549.90°C for the RBWg oil blend (Figure 2b), and from 466.19 to 560.82°C for the CRb oil blend (Figure 2c). The maximum temperature peaks for the second transition were obtained for the REp oil blend at 495.88°C, for the RBWg oil blend at 497.56°C, and for the CRb oil blend at 497.18°C (Figure 2a–c). In the third stage, the mass loss for the REp oil blend was characterized by a value of 17.38%; for the RBWg oil blend, it was– 16.83%, and for the CRb oil blend, it was 16.36% (Figure 2a–c).

The third phase represents the decomposition of saturated fatty acids and other substances formed during the polymerization of the fatty acid degradation products formed during the earlier stage. The products of these reactions can themselves react to produce cyclic monomers, dimers, and polymers [26,27,28].

The results of the research of native (NY) and autolyzed (AY) yeasts in an atmosphere of nitrogen and oxygen are shown in Figure 3a–d.

The first mild peaks at maximum temperatures of 67.96°C (Figure 3a) and 73.44°C (Figure 3b) showed the loss of free water by yeast cells. Similar results were obtained by Alcázar et al. [29] by examining the water loss through yeast cells using thermogravimetry in an air atmosphere. The mass losses were characterized by values of 3.78% (NY) and 3.58% (AY). The distinct, high peak was obtained, as shown in Figure 3a for NY. The peak was characterized by two maximum temperatures: 210.74 and 304.51°C. The first maximum temperature illustrated the decomposition of low molecular weight carbohydrates. The second maximum temperature indicated the decomposition of complex carbohydrates [30,31,32]. The mass losses corresponding to these transformations were 3.79 and 66.11%, respectively. In Figure 3b, the observed peak obtained by AY was with two maximum temperatures: 266.80 and 329.81°C. This transformation corresponded to the decomposition of carbohydrates. Banerjee et al. [33] studied de-oiled yeast biomass by using thermogravimetry in a nitrogen atmosphere. They stated that the degradation of carbohydrates in the temperature range of 164–467°C. The mannan and glucan are the main building components of the yeast cell wall, which decompose at such high temperatures. The whole mass loss of these transformations obtained was 56.22% (Figure 3b). The third peak at a maximum temperature of 380.04°C indicated the presence of fat in the yeast cell and cell wall [33]. The mass loss of fat decomposition obtained was about 19.14%.

The TG and DTG curves for NY and AY in an atmosphere of oxygen are shown in Figure 3c and d. The thermal transitions of all yeast ingredients were characterized by more distinct courses.

On the DTG curves of the NY sample, four peaks were distinguished, indicating the thermal transitions of ingredients of yeast (Figure 3c). The mass loss of saccharide decomposition obtained was about 58.31%. The peak was characterized at a maximum temperature of 278.19°C. A similar thermal transition for AY observed was characterized by a peak with a maximum temperature of 263.06°C and mass loss of 48.81% (Figure 3d). The second transformation for NY was characterized by a very sharp and distinct peak with a maximum temperature of 451.04°C and mass loss of 14.53%. The third transformation for NY observed on the DTG curve was characterized by a sharp, small peak with a maximum temperature of 466.41°C and mass loss of 10.61%. These changes indicated the oxidation of yeast fat (Figure 3c). The course of fat oxidation for AY was milder. One broad peak characterized by several sharp peaks and a broad peak maximum temperature of 476.07°C was observed. The mass loss of fat decomposition obtained was about 32.58% (Figure 3d). The last thermal transitions for both types of yeast were characterized by mild, broad peaks with a maximum temperature of about 579.05°C (Figures 3c) and 763.93°C (Figure 3d). The mass losses corresponding to these transformations were 3.77 and 11.29%, respectively. Dassanayake et al. [34] studied the decomposition temperature of chitin and chitosan using thermogravimetry in a nitrogen atmosphere. Chitin in the cell wall of yeast degrades at a higher temperature than chitosan. The maximum decompositions of chitin and chitosan were reported to be around 391 and 300°C, respectively. The decomposition of these polysaccharides may occur at higher temperatures in an oxygen atmosphere.

Figure 4a shows the TG and DTG curves in the nitrogen of microencapsulation of the oil blend (rapeseed oil and evening primrose oil) in NY.

The course of the DTG curve in Figure 4a is similar to the course of the DTG curve in Figure 3a initially. In both figures, sharp and distinct peaks were observed at maximum temperatures of 304.51°C (Figure 3a) and 271.54°C (Figure 4a). The DTG curve of microcapsules was characterized by two small, mild peaks at maximum temperatures of 332.39 and 386.83°C (Figure 4a). The mass loss corresponding to this transformation was 34.27%. The occurrence of these two peaks indicated the microencapsulation of the oil blend in the yeast biomass. In Figure 3a, no peaks were found at these temperatures.

Figure 4b shows the TG and DTG curves in the oxygen of microencapsulation of the oil blend (rapeseed oil and evening primrose oil) in NY. The DTG curve of microcapsules in oxygen was characterized by a much milder course than the DTG curve of NY (Figure 3c). The microcapsules of the DTG curve were characterized by two peaks. The first peak in the DTG curve was observed at a maximum temperature of 263.23°C. The peak was distinct and sharp.

The mild, small peak was observed in the temperature range from 393.32 to 611.63°C at a maximum temperature of 495.17°C. The maximum peak temperature at such a high level and the mass loss for this transformation amounted to 32.99%, indicating the presence of fats in the microcapsules.

Figure 5a shows the TG and DTG curves in the nitrogen of microencapsulation of the oil blend (rapeseed oil and evening primrose oil) in AY. The course of the DTG curve in Figure 5a is similar to the course of the DTG curve in Figure 3a initially. In Figure 5a, sharp, distinct peaks at a maximum temperature of 264.53°C were observed (Figure 5a). The DTG curve of the microcapsules was characterized by two small, mild peaks at maximum temperatures of 333.94 and 386.72°C (Figure 5a). The mass loss corresponding to this transformation was 35.59%. The occurrence of these two peaks indicated the microencapsulation of the oil blend in the yeast biomass.

Figure 5b shows the TG and DTG curves in the oxygen of microencapsulation of the oil blend (rapeseed oil and evening primrose oil) in AY. The DTG curve of the microcapsules in oxygen was characterized by a much milder course than the DTG curve of NY (Figure 3c). The DTG curve of the microcapsules was characterized by two peaks. The first peak on the DTG curve was observed at a maximum temperature of 258.96°C. The peak was distinct and sharp. The mild, small peak was observed at a maximum temperature of 495.21°C. The maximum peak temperature at such a high level and the mass loss for this transformation, amounting to 32.66%, indicated the presence of fats in the microcapsules.

All figures showing TG and DTG charts of NY and AY with the encapsulated blend of rapeseed oil and evening primrose oil are similar to the figures showing those of pure NY and AY. In the figures obtained in a nitrogen atmosphere, peaks probably correspond to the blend of rapeseed oil and evening primrose oil, and microencapsulation was observed for both types of NY and AY.

The TG and DTG curves in nitrogen and oxygen of microencapsulation of the oil blend (rapeseed oil, black cumin oil, and wheat germ oil) of NY and AY are shown in Figures 6a, b, and 7a, b. The TG and DTG curves in nitrogen and oxygen of microencapsulation of the oil blend (camelina oil and rice bran oil) of NY and AY are shown in Figures 8a, b, and 9a, b.

In the integrated figures (Figures 10 and 11) obtained for NY and AY in nitrogen and oxygen, the TG and DTG curves have a very similar shape and course. The differences between the maximum temperatures of peaks are very small, as are the differences in mass loss of each sample. This regularity was observed in Figures 10 and 11.

Karaman [35] studied gallic acid encapsulation using yeast cells (S. cerevisiae) and the effects of plasmolysis treatment and solvent type of encapsulation media (H2O or EtOH:H2O) on encapsulation performance, bioactive properties, morphological–conformational characteristics and release behavior. Gallic acid was successfully encapsulated in both plasmolyzed and nonplasmolyzed yeast cells. The results showed that plasmolysis treatment had a significant effect on the characteristic properties of loaded yeast cell microcapsules. These findings demonstrated that the yeast cell could be used as an efficient microcarrier for the encapsulation of gallic acid in order to provide controlled release properties for both the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Sabu et al. [36] presented an approach against type 1 diabetes mellitus using yeast microcapsules. Thus, a drug can be expected to be delivered to the systemic circulation via lymphatic transport if it is attached to the surface of a yeast microcapsule. For the first time, this possibility has been explored by surface loading of insulin onto a yeast microcapsule. The electrostatic interaction between the oppositely charged yeast microcapsule and insulin resulted in the formation of an insulin-loaded yeast microcapsule. Alginate coating provided to the insulin-loaded yeast microcapsule protects the yeast microcapsule from the harsh environment of the gastrointestinal tract and prevents the degradation of insulin in the insulin-loaded yeast microcapsule.

4 Conclusion

Differences in the shape and course of the TG and DTG curves were observed for NY in nitrogen and oxygen and for microcapsules with all types of oil blends. Differences in the shape and course of the TG and DTG curves were observed for AY in oxygen and for microcapsules with all types of oil blends. No differences were observed in the shape and course of TG and DTG curves of the microcapsule curves with all oil blends between microcapsules prepared using NY and AY. Based on the shape and course of TG and DTG curves, it can be concluded that microencapsulation of oil blends using NY and AY is effective.
