    Abstract:

    Influence of GA—zein core-shell structure on the curcumin embedding efficiency and status of curcumin after embedding treatment was investigated by taking advantage of the zein delivery functionality and stabilizing with Arabic gum, parameters such as mean particle diameters, zeta potential and absorbance were measured. The result showed that evenly dispersed globular nanoparticles were formulated under low zein concentration condition, as the increase of zein concentration, adhesion, aggregating and meltdown etc. transformation effects were occurred among the nanoparticles. It is necessary to add stabilizer to enhance the stability of zein delivery system. Stabilizing efficiency of different types of stabilizer were compared, and the result showed that stability of GA—zein—cur dispersed system reached peak when the system was stabilized with 0.3g Arabic gum;GA—zein—cur nanoparticles were the most stable when the quality ratio of curcumin and zein reached 1∶10, and the embedding efficiency was 95.90%, an even, stable and highly transparent curcumin aqueous solution was formulated.
