Abstract

To comprehend the effect of konjac dietary fiber on the gastrointestinal digestion properties of oil emulsion, adding a certain amount of konjac dietary fiber to the emulsion, the pH-stat method was used to simulate in vitro digestion process. The changes in effective particle size, particle size distribution, Zeta potential, and microstructure of emulsion before and after digestion were determined. Results showed that konjac dietary fiber had significant effects on digestion and physicochemical properties of emulsion before and after digestion. With the increase of the fiber concentration, the initial digestion rate and final lipid digestibility decreased. The free fatty acids released after 120 min of pancreatic lipase digestion were 14.84% for emulsion containing 0.5% of (mass fraction) konjac dietary fiber. As emulsions were subjected to the different phases of an in vitro simulated gastrointestinal tract, their particle size increased gradually. Furthermore, the particle size at the same digestive phase increased with the fiber addition. However, the absolute value of the Zeta potential of the emulsion after intestinal digestion was greater than 40 mV, meaning that the lipid droplet became unstable and was likely to aggregate. The final digestibility of lipids in the emulsion decreased with the increase of fiber concentration in the system. The research results were of great significance for the control of lipid digestion in the gastrointestinal tract and the development of low-caloric functional foods.
