In this paper, six different liquid beverages were used for vitamin D3 fortification, investigating the effect of different food matrices on the bioaccessibility of vitamin D. Not from concentrate (NFC) apple juice (9.34%) and NFC orange juice (8.12%) presented about 20% higher bioaccessibility of vitamin D3 than soybean and skim milk, and achieved a similar value of whole milk (8.04%). Meanwhile, the bioaccessibility of NFC apple and orange juice was markedly about 120% higher than that of apple clear juice. From the correlation analysis, the bioaccessibility of VD3 indicated significant correlations with small intestine retention (0.82) and viscosity (0.66). But small intestinal particle size showed a negative effect on bioaccessibility (-0.78). Therefore, food components, delivery matrices, and physicochemical properties of digesta were key factors to achieve higher bioaccessibility for guiding formulation design.
