Description

This book covers the formation, properties, characterization, and application of different kinds of colloidal delivery systems that can be utilized within the food industry, including surfactant-based, emulsion-based, and biopolymer-based systems. The book takes a traditional colloid science approach to the subject with particular emphasis on the practical aspects of formulation of particulate and emulsion-based delivery systems for pharmaceutical and food applications. It covers active ingredients drawn from proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids as well as mineral-based active ingredients. The book describes particle characteristics and explains mechanical particle fabrication methods.Typham this is the title: Nanoparticle- and Microparticle-based Delivery Systems Encapsulation, Protection and Release of Active Compounds 1st Edition
