ABSTRACT
A subtype of soft solid-like substances are emulsion gels (emulgels; EGs). These composite materials structures
either consist of a network of aggregated emulsion droplets or a polymeric gel matrix that contains emulsion
droplets. The products rheological signature can be used to determine how effective it is for a specic appli-
cation. The interactions between these structured systems separate components and production process, how-
ever, have a substantial impact on their rheological imprint. Therefore, rational comprehension of
interdependent elements, their structural congurations, and the resulting characteristics of a system are
essential for accelerating our progress techniques as well as for ne-tuning the technological and functional
characteristics of the nished product. This article presents a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms and
procedures of producing EGs (i.e., cold-set and heat-set) in order to determine the ensuing rheological features
for various commercial applications, such as food systems. It also describes the inuence of these methods on the
rheological and textural characteristics of the EGs. Diverse preparation methods are the cause of the rheological-
property correlations between different EGs. In many ways, EGs can be produced using various matrix polymers,
processing techniques, and purposes. This may lead to various EG matrix structures and interactions between
them, which in turn may affect the composition of EGs and ultimately their textural and rheological
characteristics.
1. Introduction
Besides existing as an emulsion, complex colloidal materials can also
exist as gels. Oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions based on uids can be
transformed into soft-solids known as emulsion gels or emulgels (EGs),
which can be conceptualized as either a network of cross-linked poly-
mers with embedded emulsion droplets (referred to as emulsion-lled
gels, or EFGs), or as a network made of occulated droplets [1] with
different physicochemical and physiological properties. EGs can be used
as fat substitutes and are the fundamental building blocks of numerous
meals, including cheese, yogurt, and sausage [2]. For bioactive com-
ponents like β-carotene, vitamins, probiotics, etc., EGs are effective de-
livery vehicles [24]. The restricted mobility of the embedded
components is made possible by the tight gel networks, which can also

serve as a deterrent to outside attacks. In contrast to EGs, which have
gained more attention over the past ten years due to their advantages
such as the prolongation of gastric and/or intestinal transit time due to
the gels protection [5], and more resistance during storage since the EG
can build natural barriers to oil movement and create obstructed oxygen
transport within the lattice [68], emulsions delivery systems have only
a little scope for enhanced in vivo bioavailability of nutraceutical
compounds [9].
The gel matrix is made up of substances with the power to form
unique gels, primarily proteins, and polysaccharides. According to the
differences in the gel matrix, EGs can be separated into three types:
bulk EGs, EG particles, and uid EGs [10]. Lipid droplets in EGs can be
categorized as active and inactive llers [11] depending on how they
interact with gelling agents and emulsiers to change the properties
of EGs [12]. The kind, concentration, structure, and interactions of an

The incorporation of particles decreased the

Enzyme (MTGase) Soy protein isolate (SPI) Soy oil (0.2, 0.4 and 0.6) The G
of all the emulsions mixed with MTGase
progressively increased as the incubation
proceeded; the rate of increase in G
was highest
at initial incubation periods, e.g., <15 min, and it
gradually slowed down, and at last, became
nearly unchanged
The enzyme action, even with an incubation
period of 10 min, could result in formation of gel-
like emulsions at ø =0.4 or 0.6; and cohesiveness
or stiffness progressively increased with
increasing period of time up to 30 min

Hardness and springiness of the gels decreased
along with increasing of GDL (0.3%, w/v) in the
presence of 0.1% (w/v) MTGase
Effect of MTGase on the rheological
characteristics of the samples was less signicant
than GDL. The sample with 0.1% (w/v) MTGase
could quickly give rise to the gel with higher
strength in the presence of 0.3% (w/v) GDL than
the others
Samples had no obvious frequency-dependence
in the low frequency region (010 Hz) when the
GDL levels were not <0.3% (w/v) in the presence
of 0.1% MTGase

SPI Soy oil At higher pressures, the strength of SPI EG raised
from G

Higher pressure also reduced the frequency
dependence of SPI EG (n
descended from 0.105
to 0.065)
At a higher pressure, the emulsion tends to form
a more stable isotropic network gel structure

Toluene and hexane Liquid soya lecithin Canola oil The G
of the gels increased with solvent
absorption to a maximum at 33% (v/v) hexane or
24% (v/v) toluene
G
for mixtures of 50% toluene and 50% hexane
was intermediate between Gfor the same
volumes of pure solvents
