The encapsulation of antioxidants with biocompatible polymers is essential for their protection against degradation factors like light and oxygen, and facilitates its solubility in the target medium. This work presents the ...

Microencapsulated turmeric oleoresin can present improved curcumin stability and be easily applied in hydrophilic systems. Most of the microencapsulation techniques rely on the initial emulsification of the core material ...

Turmeric oleoresin is a colorant prepared by solvent extraction of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.). Curcumin, the major pigment present in turmeric, has been described as a potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic ...

3D Cell culture is an alternative to animal use in many drug development and toxicity studies. The 3D cell culture can mimic and reproduce the original tissue microenvironment, morphology, and mechanical and physiological ...

Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.), which has been used for long time as a spice, food preservative and coloring agent, is a rich source of beneficial phenolic compounds identified as curcuminoids. These phenolic compounds are ...

The aim of this work was to encapsulate casein hydrolysate by complex coacervation with soybean protein isolate (SPI)/pectin. Three treatments were studied with wall material to core ratio of 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3. The samples ...
