Introduction

Controlling lipid digestion profiles would facilitate the development

of remodeled lipids with tailored properties:

Control of satiety

Delivery of bioactive components to specific locations

Lipids are present as O/W emulsions

Bile salts (BS) replace original emulsifier from the surface of

lipid droplets preparing the interface for lipolysis

Lipolysis is an interfacial reaction that can be affected

by the presence of emulsifiers onto the oil-water interface:

either more surface active than BS

and/or resistant to displacement by BS

by events taking place in the bulk that may have an impact on the

interfacial properties

Background Pluronics are promising surfactants opening up new horizons in the

control of lipid digestion (approved for oral intake by U.S. FDA)

Delay lipid digestion as compared with model emulsifiers (lecithin

or proteins)

Adsorbed layers provide a steric barrier which protects the o-w

interface from the action of BS and lipase

Oil droplets covered by larger Pluronics (F127) are digested at lower

rate and extent than those covered by smaller Pluronics (F68)

Conclusions Pluronics seem to prevent BS from adsorbing onto the surface

of oil droplets in emulsions due to a combination of complexation and competitive adsorption

Pluronics are also resistant to displacement by BS from the oil-water interface

The more hydrophobic and larger Pluronic (F127) better competes for the oil-water interface and interacts with greater amount of BS molecules

These findings are relevant to the rational design in the control of lipid digestion
