ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 1. Introduction Anthocyanin is the most widely used and recognized members of the bioflavonoid phytochemicals. The potential sources of anthocyanin are colored fruits and vegetables. Some pigmented rice varieties are also a good source of anthocyanin, especially purple rice bran [1].

T

Besides the wide range of colors, the potential health benefits rendered anthocyanin as an

IP

attractive compound in the food system [2]. However, the stability of anthocyanin is a major

CR

challenge for the food industry. The stability of anthocyanin depends on various environmental factors, such as pH, light, temperature, oxygen, and enzymatic activities. For the low stability in

US

various conditions during processing and storage, application of anthocyanin as an ingredient in

AN

foods is now quite challenging.

To obtain a stable and usable food ingredient from anthocyanin, several approaches are in

M

consideration, such as encapsulation, emulsion, and freeze-drying. For anthocyanin,

ED

encapsulation method has been demonstrated and accepted by a few researchers [3-7]. The most commonly used encapsulation process is microencapsulation. Microencapsulation may be an

PT

efficient way to improve the bioavailability and stability of bioactive compounds and managing

CE

the release of active agent [2]. The main aim of microencapsulation is to protect the core material from environmental effects, thereby increases the shelf life of the product and promoting a

AC

controlled release of the core material [8]. There are various types of microencapsulation techniques, such as a vibrational nozzle, centrifugal extrusion, spray drying, and cocrystallization. The most commonly used technique is spray drying, due to its continuity in nature, low cost and less time which can produce particles with good quality [2]. For microencapsulation through spray drying process, the selection of wall material is the primary step. Most commonly used wall materials are maltodextrin, gum arabic, and emulsifying

3

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT starches. The carbohydrates, such as, maltodextrins and starches have properties like good solubility and low viscosity at high solids contents which are highly desirable for an encapsulating agent. However, native starch is insoluble in cold water and, when heated with water it forms a paste-like texture with high viscosity, which decreases the spray drying

T

efficiency and increases the surface crack, thereby limits its application for encapsulation using

IP

spray drying. These limitations can be overcome by the modification of native starch. Few

CR

numbers of researchers were used modified starch as a wall material in for encapsulation of various bioactive compounds [9]. However, the application of modified low amylose rice starch

US

as wall material in microencapsulation of anthocyanin was scanty.

AN

The functional and physicochemical properties of a microencapsulated anthocyanin powder directly depend on the storage condition of the powder. The extrinsic factors like

M

temperature, light, and oxygen, are the most determining factors of anthocyanin stability in

ED

powder [3]. Therefore, the effect of storage conditions on the stability of anthocyanin in microencapsulated powder needs to understand. On the other hand, the incorporation of

PT

microencapsulated powder significantly affect the rheological properties and textural properties

CE

of food product [10]. Therefore, a clear understanding of the effect of microencapsulated powder on the flow behavior of dough is required to design and develop a new food product. However,

AC

there is no information on the effect of microencapsulated anthocyanin powder incorporation on the rice dough rheology. Therefore, the present work is the first where anthocyanin from purple rice bran is microencapsulated with modified glutinous rice starch using a spray-drying technique. The objective of the present study was to microencapsulate anthocyanin extract from purple rice bran using modified starch through spray drying. The spray drying process for

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT microencapsulation was optimized and validated. The physicochemical, thermal, and morphological properties of microencapsulated powder were also investigated extensively. The storage stability of a spray-dried powder in various temperatures was also carried out. In addition to that, the effect of microencapsulated anthocyanin powder on the rice dough rheology was also

determined.

concentrated (36% by weight) HCl and proceeded at 30°C for 2 h, with constant stirring. The reaction was stopped by adding 14 mL of 1 M NaHCO3. The solution was cooled in an ice bath

PT

for 15 min and centrifuged at 5000 rpm (523.59 rad/s) for another 5 min. The precipitate was

washed four times with 50% ethanol and dried in an air oven at 45°C. The anthocyanin was extracted from bran using ultrasound-assisted extraction process as follow by Das, Goud, and

AC

Das [1]. The extracted anthocyanin was separated from the extract through the adsorption/desorption process using amberlite XAD7 resin [12]. For adsorption, 1 g pre-treated XAD7 resin and 25 mL of purple rice bran extract was added to 250 mL flask. Then the flask was kept for shaking at 45 rpm (4.71 rad/s) in a shaker at room temperature (28±2°C) for 24 h. For desorption, the resins with anthocyanin were washed with 25 mL distilled water and then, 50

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT mL 95% ethanol was added to the flask. The flask was kept in a shaker at 45 rpm (4.71 rad/s) for 24 h at room temperature (28±2°C).

2.2. Preparation of feed sample and encapsulation

T

For microencapsulation of anthocyanin extract, modified starch was used as wall material

IP

and anthocyanin as a core material. The starch dispersion of various concentrations (5-10% w/v)

CR

was prepared in water with the combination of anthocyanin extract (40 mg cyanidin-3glucoside/L) (core) under magnetic agitation. The encapsulation of anthocyanin extract was done

2.3. Encapsulation efficiency

The encapsulation efficiency of the microencapsulation process was measured using the

PT

method described by Akhavan Mahdavi, Jafari [4]. To estimate the efficiency, total anthocyanin

CE

content (TAC) and surface anthocyanin content (SAC) of the microcapsules were measured. For analysis, 1 mL of distilled water was added to 100 mg of sample and the microencapsulation was

crushed in a mortar-pestle. Then, the samples were extracted using 10 mL ethanol. The surface anthocyanin from the microcapsules was extracted by quickly washing with ethanol (10 mL) in a vortex within 10s, and centrifuge at 3000 rpm (314.15 rad/s) for 3 min at 20°C. The clear supernatants were collected and filtered through 0.45µm-filter paper and used for anthocyanin determination. Encapsulation efficiency (%) 

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 2.4. Anthocyanin content and DPPH scavenging activity The anthocyanin contents of the microencapsulates were determined by the pHdifferential method as mentioned by Das, Goud, and Das [1]. The absorbance of the samples was measured at 515 and 700 nm using UV/VIS spectrophotometer (Make: Thermo Fisher Scientific,

filter paper (0.45µm) and diluted with methanol. The 100 µL filtrate was taken and added to 1.4

AN

mL DPPH radical methanolic solution (10-4 M). The absorbance was measured at 517 nm using a spectrophotometer (Make: Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, Massachusetts, USA; Model:

2.5. Physicochemical properties

The physicochemical properties of the samples were investigated in terms of true density, water activity, Hausner ratio, bulk density, porosity, solubility, and diameter. The true density of the microencapsulated powders was measured using gas pycnometer (Make: Porous Materials Inc, Ithaca, New York, USA; Model: PYC-100A). The water activity of the microencapsulated samples was determined using a water activity meter (Make: Aqualab Pullman, USA; Model: 4TE). The Hausner ratio defining the flowability of powder, it is the ratio of tap volume to the bulk volume of powder. For bulk density, a 500mL measuring cylindrical was filled with the 7

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT sample from a height of 150mm at a constant rate and then weighing the contents. The porosity of the powder was calculated using the relationship between the bulk density and true density [4]. For solubility, the 2.5 g ground sample was mixed with 30 ml of water at 30°C, in a pre-

T

weighed centrifuge tube, agitated for 30 min, and then centrifuged at 3000 rpm (314.15 rad/s) for

IP

10 min. The supernatant was carefully decanted into a pre-weighed evaporating dish. After

CR

evaporating the water from the supernatant, the mass of dried solids recovered was expressed as

a percentage of dry solids in the sample and defined as the water solubility index (WSI).

2.6. Gelatinization properties

A differential scanning calorimetry instrument (Make: NETZSCH, Selb, Germany;

Model: DSC 214) was used to determine the gelatinization properties of microencapsulated

powders. For the analysis, the initial temperature was 30°C and end at 250°C with 10°C/min rate. The onset, endset, and peak temperature of the powder were measured and analyzed using

the DSC instrument’s software.

2.7. X-Ray Diffraction

AC

The crystallinity of the microencapsulated powder was studied at 35 kV and 20 mA CuKa radiation in an X-ray diffractometer (Make: Bruker Axs, Karlsruhe, Germany; Model: D8 FOCUS). Data were recorded over an angular range of 2° to 50° (2θ) with a scanning rate of 2°/min.

2.8. FT-IR analysis The FT-IR spectra of microencapsulates were recorded using a spectrometer (Make: NICOLET, Wisconsin, USA; Model: IMPACT 410). The absorbance spectra of the

microencapsulated powders were documented in the range of 4000 to 400 cm-1 having a

CR

IP

resolution of 4 cm-1. All the experimental data were analyzed using OMNIC E.S.P.5.0 software.

2.9. Morphological properties

The morphological properties of microencapsulated anthocyanin were carried out using a

spray drying and to optimize the process parameter, three-factor rotatable center composite design (RCCD) was employed. RCCD is widely used in food processing to optimize the

complex system [14]. The optimum spray drying condition for microencapsulated powder was obtained in terms of maximizing encapsulation efficiency (Y1), anthocyanin content (Y2), DPPH scavenging activity (Y3), true density (Y4) and minimum water activity (Y5). Twenty experiments were carried out to find out the optimum values of spray drying parameters. The real values of the independent variables are shown in Table 1.

The lack of fit of five responses was insignificant (0.842, 0.269, 0.455, 0.312, and 0.730) (p≤0.05) which conferred that the developed relationships were suitable for the experimental

11

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT data. From the ANOVA analysis, it can be inferred that the developed models can be efficiently used for the optimization of the microencapsulation process.

3.2. Response surface analysis

T

Fig.1 (a and b) shows the relationship between encapsulation efficiency and the spray

IP

drying process parameters. As the inlet air temperature increased, the encapsulation efficiency

CR

increased significantly (p≤0.05). During spray drying, as the inlet air temperature increases the drying rate of droplets accelerated and hence there is a quick formation of particle crust which

US

prevents leaching of anthocyanin and penetration heat in the droplet. Fig.1a and 1b show that for

AN

the increase of atomizer pressure the encapsulation efficiency increases significantly (P≤0.05), whereas, for the increase in starch concentration as wall material after a certain concentration

M

(7%) there was drastically decreased in the encapsulation efficiency. In this regards, Jafari,

ED

Assadpoor [15] suggested that retention of core material significantly depends upon the viscosity of the initial emulsion. For the increase of solid concentration, there is an increase in viscosity

PT

which may be resulting eventual cracking on the particles which increase the diffusion of the

CE

anthocyanin from core to the wall, hence decrease the encapsulation efficiency [16]. Fig. 1(c, and e) illustrated that for the increase of inlet air temperature; anthocyanin

AC

content decreases and DPPH scavenging activity of microencapsulated powder, due to the thermal sensitivity of anthocyanin. For the increase in starch concentration up to 7% (w/v) the anthocyanin content and DPPH scavenging activity of powder was increased, beyond that both decreases. The increase in starch concentration increases the emulsion viscosity that suppresses the internal circulations and enhances the anthocyanin and DPPH scavenging activity of microencapsulate [16]. However at high starch concentration, due to the cracking on the particles

12

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT wall, the core anthocyanin leached out to the surface and degraded [16]. Fig.1 (d and f) illustrated that higher atomizer pressure enhances the anthocyanin content and DPPH scavenging activity of particles. For the increase of atomizer pressure, the momentum of atomized droplets increases into the spray stream [15] and rapid development of the film around the droplet, which

T

reduces the anthocyanin diffusion and enhances the anthocyanin retention and DPPH scavenging

IP

activity in microencapsulates.

CR

The water activity of microencapsulates was varied between 0.49 to 0.56 and showed a significant (p≤0.05) effect of independent variables during processing as shown in Fig.1 (g and

US

h). At high inlet air temperatures, the atomized feed and drying air has a high temperature

AN

gradient thereby, the water activity of the microencapsulate was gradually decreased. It can be observed from Fig.1g, that water activity decreased with increases in starch concentration as wall

M

material. The higher solids contents in feed reduce the total available moisture and decrease the

ED

water activity of powder [17]. The water activity of the powders was increased with increase in atomizer pressure (Fig.1h). At high atomization pressure the retention time of particles in the

PT

drying chamber reduces, and hence the water activity of finished particles increased.

CE

From the Fig. 1i, it was illustrated that for the increase in inlet air temperature, true density decreased. At very high temperatures, a high rate of drying implies a lower shrinkage of

AC

the droplets, and thereby a lower true density microencapsulated powder was obtained [16]. For the increase in starch concentration, a slight decrease in true density was noticed. For the increase in starch concentration the viscosity of the droplet increases and cause cracking on the particles surface which reduces the true density of particle [16]. It is observed that for the increase of atomization pressure up to 4.14 MPa there was an increase in true density beyond that there was a decrease in true density of microencapsulate.

13

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 3.3. Optimization and validation The section was aimed to find out the values of spray drying process parameters which would allow getting a microencapsulated powder with high encapsulation efficiency, anthocyanin content, DPPH scavenging activity, true density, and low water activity. Thereby

T

during the optimization, the targets were set to achieve maximum encapsulation efficiency,

IP

maximum anthocyanin content, maximum DPPH scavenging activity, maximum true density,

CR

and minimum water activity. Optimum conditions were selected based on the highest desirability value. The developed models (Eqs. 5 to 9) were used for optimization of spray drying process

US

parameters. The maximum desirability of spray drying conditions was 0.88.

The optimal

AN

condition of spray drying was 6.01 % modified starch, 4.96 MPa atomizer pressure, and 168.78°C inlet air temperature. In the optimum condition, the predicted values of the dependent

M

variables were, encapsulation efficiency 94.22 %, DPPH scavenging activity 54.59 %,

ED

anthocyanin content 2.91 mg/L, true density 1.74 g/cm3, and water activity 0.51. For the validation of optimized condition, the experiment was conducted in optimum condition. At the

PT

optimized condition, encapsulation efficiency, anthocyanin content, DPPH activity, true density,

CE

and water activity of powder did not significantly (p≤0.05) varied from predicted values, hence

AC

the developed model was reliable.

3.4. Physico-chemical properties The physicochemical properties of microencapsulated anthocyanin powder were investigated in term of true density, Hausner ratio, bulk density, porosity, diameter, water activity, and solubility. It was observed that the true density was 1.74 (g/cm3), Hausner ratio

respectively. There were distinct differences in the peak of melting temperatures of the native,

modified starch and encapsulated powder. The onset, peak and endset temperature of native rice starch were 74.04, 73.21 and 77.21°C, respectively (Fig. 2).

M

From the Fig. 2, it can be observed that the onset temperature of microencapsulated

ED

particles and modified starch were significantly changed. It may be due to the formation of various complexes with amylose for the hydrolysis of starch, especially amorphous regions and

PT

affect the thermal properties. A similar observation was reported by the previous researcher [18].

CE

The onset temperature of the samples was increased from 73.21ºC to 157ºC, due to the long chain complex formation of amylose-phenolic compounds, which needed a higher temperature to

AC

break. This increase could also be due to a high number of longer amylopectin double helices resulting from modification than in unhydrolyzed amylopectin molecule. Because branch points in unhydrolyzed amylopectin may reduce the length of helix-forming side chains. From the result, it can be inferred that the developed powder is thermally stable.

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 3.6. X-ray diffraction Fig.3 shows the X-ray diffraction pattern of microencapsulated anthocyanin powder, native and modified starch. As shown in Fig.3, a strong diffraction peak was observed around 15° which indicates A-type crystallinity of starch, a doublet at 17°, and 23° (2θ) [19]. After

microencapsulation, the typical starch peaks disappeared and the loaded microencapsulated

IP

powders demonstrated an amorphous nature. The Fig. 3 illustrated that for microencapsulated

CR

anthocyanin powder, a sharp peak at 19.18° was observed which may be due to the formation of the biopolymer with an amorphous structure [20]. It may possible that there is a formation of V-

US

amylose with other bioactive compounds present in anthocyanin extract, which is responsible for

AN

the distinct peak [21, 22]. In addition to that, the effect of the spray drying process may also be

The peaks between 1000 and 1250 cm-1 may be due to the C–O–C bond, which illustrated that the three samples were carbohydrate in nature.

From Fig. 4 it was observed that at 2950cm-1 there is a sharp peak which may be due to the C-H stretching vibration. The FT-IR spectrum for the anthocyanin extract shows a strong absorption

The microencapsulated powder obtained under optimum spray drying conditions (6.01 % modified starch, 4.96 MPa atomizer pressure, and 168.78°C inlet air temperature) was

characterized using SEM technique and compared with native starch and modified starch. As

ED

shown in Fig.5, the surface morphology of spray dried microcapsule was more uniform and smooth than native starch and modified starch surface. Moreover, no particle aggregation was

observed in the microencapsulated anthocyanin powder [24]. Kanakdande, Bhosale [25]

suggested that the microencapsulated powder should have a uniform and smooth surface having slightly spherical shape with minimum cracks and collapses on walls. Few broken microcapsules

AC

can be observed from Fig. 5, indicating quite inefficient encapsulating properties of the carrier materials. This result was in agreement with earlier reports [25].

3.9. Storage Study The storage stability of microencapsulated anthocyanin powder was studied for 90 days at 25 and 4°C. In both the temperatures, a decrease in anthocyanin content was observed as

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT shown in Fig. 6. This phenomenon illustrated that after the microencapsulation, there can also be a significant decrease in the anthocyanin content. Hence, the degradation of anthocyanin in microencapsulated powder was higher at 25°C than 4°C. As similar types of observation were reported by the previous researcher [3]. Degradation of anthocyanin, during storage, may occur

due to various reaction mechanisms, such as condensation reactions, oxidation, and cleavage of a

that the microencapsulated powder decreases the pseudo-plasticity of the dough samples. It may be due to the formation of new networks in the rice dough in the presence of microencapsulated

powder. For the increase of microencapsulated powder in rice dough, resulted in a very sticky and cohesive dough, which required a high force for shearing as compared to only rice dough and enhance the consistence of the dough. The Herschel–Bulkley model showed the higher coefficient of determination (R2) than Mizrahi-Berk model, hence it can be inferred that Herschel–Bulkley model can efficiently predict the effect of microencapsulated powder on the steady-shear rheology of rice dough.

4. Conclusions The microencapsulation of anthocyanin extract from purple rice bran with modified glutinous rice starch as wall material was successfully developed using the spray drying process.

T

The process was optimized using RCCD followed by RSM and the optimum process condition

IP

for microencapsulation was 6.01% of starch concentration, 168.78°C drying temperature and

CR

4.96 MPa nozzle pressure. The physical characteristics of spray-dried powders were investigated in term of water activity, solubility, true density, bulk density, porosity, diameter, and Hausner

US

ratio. The thermal properties and crystallinity of microencapsulate powder significantly differ

AN

from native and modified glutinous rice starch. The microencapsulate showed higher onset (157.0°C) and peak temperature (168.78°C). The morphological properties of the

M

microencapsulate showed that the surface of microcapsules was more uniform and smooth

ED

surfaces than the native and modified starch. The storage study of microencapsulated powder illustrated that at low-temperature storage the anthocyanin degradation in particles was less than

PT

high-temperature storage. The microencapsulated particles also affect the steady-shear rheology

CE

of rice dough. The increase in microencapsulated powder concentration from 5 to 20% in rice

AC

dough, decrease the pseudo-plasticity of dough.
