In vitro evaluation of iron bioaccessibility in microencapsu lated iron-enriched breads
IntroductionMineral deficiencies (especially of iron, calcium and zinc) have a negative effect on human health. To reduce these risks, not only the intake of a mineral is important, but also the amount that is available to be absorbed (WHO, 2010). Food iron fortification is a practical and sustainable solution to combat iron deficiency. Fortified bakery products must provide iron in a stable and highly bio-available form without reduction of sensorial quality of final products, so that iron compounds must be protected to avoid degradation during the baking process. Microencapsulation avoids iron oxidation during the bread-baking process, due to chemical and physical stresses (temperature, pH…) and also mitigates undesirable interactions between iron and food components (such as phytates) increasing the iron bioavailability (Zimmermann, 2003; Pounis et al., 2011; Jayalalitha et al., 2012). The aim of this study is to evaluate the gastrointestinal resistance of microencapsulated iron and thereafter on the iron bioavailability in enriched breads.

Methods
ConclusionsResults herein reported show that the different microencapsulated iron added to bread resist the bread-making process and the human gastric conditions of an adult, releasing most of the iron content at the intestinal level. The bread sample fortified with microencapsulated iron with 35% of ferrous sulphate in the core is the one showing the highest amount of Fe potentially available at the intestinal level, and the highest ratio of Fe II to Fe III. These results confirm that the microencapsulation of iron makes possible to enhance iron intestinal absorption of enriched bakery products. Further analysis is being performed by the study of the effect on the regulation of DMT1 (apical Fe2+ transporter) and the measure of ferritin.

Determination of Fe II +Fe III
As it is shown in figure 3, after the digestion process, most of the ironcontent in the intestinal digested bread is available to be absorbed as free iron (Fe II + Fe III). Thus, these results show that the differentmicroencapsulated iron added in bread resist the bread-making process as well as the human (adult) gastric conditions.

Fe III/ Fe II (intestinal digested)Bread reference
All bread samples show a high percentage of ironbioaccessibility. In particular, the samples FFCFM4 (35% ferrous sulphate) FFCFM7 (15% ferrous lactate) presentthe highest free Fe (FeII+FeIII) potentially available to be absorbed at intestinal level (figure 4).
Table 1. Ratio of Fe II/Fe III in the intestinal digested of fortified breads.
The table below ( table 1) shows the ratio Fe III/ Fe II. As we observe, one of the two bread samples, FFCFM4, with higher ironbioaccessibility, shows the highest ratio of Fe II to Fe III.
