Abstract

Zein, the main protein in corn endosperm which shows self-assembly property, has been widely studied as a stabilizer of food-grade Pickering emulsion. The effects of the interaction between particles on the interface structure and the stability of Pickering emulsion were described. Some Pickering emulsions stabilized by different kinds of zein complex nanoparticles and the characterization methods of Pickering emulsions were introduced. Finally, the application and outlook of Pickering emulsions were summarized. This review provides references for the development of zein-based Pickering emulsions.
