A set of whey protein stabilized-emulsion gels with different droplet size distributions (D4,3 ¼ 1, 6 and 12
mm) was produced, and the mechanical properties of the gels in the linear viscoelastic region and at large
deformation were measured, along with the physicochemical and structural changes of the gels during oral
mastication and gastric digestion. The gels containing 1 mm oil droplets had an aggregated particle structure
with proteins coating at oil droplets whereas the gels containing 12 mm oil droplets had a particle-filled
structure with spatially continuous matrix. During oral processing, the release of oil droplets from the
gels increased as the droplet size increased, with coalescence being seen in gels containing oil droplets
of 6 and 12 mm diameter. Under gastric digestion, high degrees of coalescence and phase separation of
oil droplets occurred in the gels containing 6 and 12 mm oil droplets because of oil droplet release from
the gel matrix; this led to slow gastric emptying. The gels were finally broken down into peptide

particles of several to several tens of microns with a low degree of oil droplet release and coalescence.
