Abstract
To evaluate potential health impact of engineered nanoparticles, evaluation of digestion effect is necessary. Digestion requires micro-management and sequential execution of complex enzymatic mechanisms with controlled human digestion environment. The objective of this study was to develop an automated in-vitro digestive system to assess bio-accessibility of encapsulated lycopene nanoparticles in model fruit juice. Lycopene was encapsulated in polylactic acid (PLA-LNP) and polylactic co-glycolic acid (PLGA-LNP) and evaluated the bio-accessibility in a programmable in-vitro human digestive system operated with high sensitivity (25–30μs) and volume accuracy (97.37–100%). Pasteurized Model juice containing PLA-LNP, revealing higher bio-accessibility (100%) compared to PLGA-LNP (73%) counterparts. Absorption profile of both types of nanoparticles followed Korsmeyer-Peppas diffusion model at R2 value of 0.98. All types of nanoparticles with different treatments followed non-Fickian types of diffusion except PLGA-PLA with microwave pasteurization. This automated in-vitro digestive system holds significant potential for advancing drug discovery and delivery studies in the future.
