Prosopis alba exudate gum as novel excipient for fish oil encapsulation in polyelectrolyte bead system
(Elsevier, 2017-06)
In this work, a bottom-up approach based on the study of polyelectrolyte interactions was performed in order to evaluate the effect of Prosopis alba exudate gum as novel excipient for fish oil encapsulation in composed ...
Natural astaxanthin encapsulation: Use of response surface methodology for the design of alginate beads
(Elsevier Science, 2019-07)
Nowadays, consumers are more conscious about healthier products consumption benefits. Astaxanthin obtained from the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis represents a natural ingredient for the nutraceutical and functional ...
Image texture analysis and gas sensor array studies applied to vanilla encapsulation by octenyl succinic anhydride starches
(Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2013-02)
Native starch derivatization with octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) is a chemical modification designed to enhance flavor microencapsulation performance. Hi Cap 100 and Capsul are two OSA starches derived from waxy maize ...

(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-08)
The objective of this work was to evaluate the physicochemical properties of previously characterised flours obtained by milling the solid waste from the manufacture of an isotonic drink produced with various fruits and ...
Phospholipid multilamellar vesicles entrapping phenothiazine photosensitizers. Preparation, characterization and evaluation of their photodynamic properties
(Elsevier Science, 2019-01)
The aim of the present paper was to optimize the properties of phenothiazine photosensitizers (PSs), Azure B and its monobrominated derivative. They were entrapped in multilamellar liposomes of egg phosphatidylcholine (EPC) ...
Co-crystallized sucrose with propolis extract as a food ingredient: Powder characterization and antioxidant stability
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2021-05)
Propolis possesses health beneficial properties due to its antioxidant compounds; however, its solubility in alcohol and its strong and unpleasant taste limit the use of propolis extract in foods. This study explores the ...
Molecular implications in the nanoencapsulation of the anti-tuberculosis drug rifampicin within flower-like polymeric micelles
(Elsevier Science, 2010-09)
Tuberculosis (TB) is the second most deadly infectious disease behind the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). An effective pharmacotherapy has been available for more than 5 decades. However, the length of the treatment ...
