This study investigates the effect of incorporating omega-3 fatty acids encapsulated in pea protein into a model food gel composed of gelatin and iota-carrageenan. Four formulations with varying concentrations of encapsulated omega-3 (0%, 3%, 3.75%, and 6%) were evaluated for their rheological, textural, and printability properties. Rheological analysis revealed a progressive increase in storage modulus (G ') from 1200 Pa (0%) to 2000 Pa (6%), indicating enhanced elastic behavior. Extrusion analysis showed a reduction in maximum extrusion force from 325 N (0%) to 250 N (6%), and an increase in buffer time from 390 s to 500 s. Print fidelity at time 0 showed minimal deviation in the checkerboard geometry (area deviation: -12%), while the concentric cylinder showed the highest stability over 60 min (height deviation: 9%). These findings highlight the potential of using encapsulated bioactive compounds in 3D food printing to develop functional foods with tailored nutritional and mechanical properties.This study was funded by a pre-doctoral grant of Universitat Politecnica de Valencia subprograma1 (PAID-01-21), MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033/ with the project PID2020-115973RB-C22 and the Project "3D Good" of AGROALNEXT/2022/001 program.MDPI AGDepartamento de Tecnología de AlimentosInstituto Universitario de Ingeniería de Alimentos (FoodUPV)Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Agronómica y del Medio NaturalGeneralitat ValencianaAGENCIA ESTATAL DE INVESTIGACIONUNIVERSIDAD POLITECNICA DE VALENCIARepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20252025-07-30journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/234589reponame:RiuNet.
