    Abstract:
    Four typical dietary polyphenols ((-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), quinic acid (QA), caffeic acid (CA), and ferulic acid (FA)) were covalently prepared with rice recombinant human lactoferrin (OsrhLF) and bovine lactoferrin (bLF), and their structure and physicochemical properties were investigated, different lycopene emulsions were made by ultrasonic emulsification to analyze gastrointestinal fate. The results indicated that the covalent modification polyphenols changed the secondary/tertiary structure of LF, significantly improving the surface hydrophilicity, thermal stability, and antioxidant activity of LF. Compared with the bLF group, the OsrhLF group was more hydrophilic and the thermal denaturation temperature of the OsrhLF-CA reached 104.4 °C. LF-polyphenol emulsions significantly enhanced the photochemical stability and bioavailability of lycopene and achieved effective encapsulation and protection of lycopene compared to free lycopene, and the OsrhLF-EGCG reached 58.94% lycopene bioavailability. In short, OsrhLF does not differ much from bLF in terms of physicochemical properties and has a strong potential in the field of dietary supplements.
