In this work, octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) chemical modification with surfactant physical modification was combined to modify bovine bone gelatin (BBG) for emulsion stabilization at pH 6.0 (to simulate acidic food environment). OSA modification decreased the β-sheet percentage and increased β-turn percentage of BBG. Further, the combination of OSA modification with surfactant physical modification had obvious and different effects on the emulsifying properties of BBG. The creaming stability of gelatin/surfactant-stabilized emulsions was dependent on gelatin structure, surfactant type, and preparation pH. The emulsions stabilized by OBBG/Span 80 and OBBG/soybean lecithin (only blurry creaming at day 28) had significantly better creaming stability than other emulsions. These results demonstrated that the combination of OSA modification with surfactant modification could be applied to improve the emulsifying properties of BBG.
