Encapsulation of Active Molecules and their Delivery System

Encapsulation of Active Molecules and Their Delivery System covers the key methods of preparation of encapsulation, as well as release mechanisms and their applications in food, biotechnology, metal protection, drug delivery, and micronutrients delivery in agriculture. The book also provides real-life examples of applications in food and other industries. Sections encompasses (i) Synthesis and characterization methods of micro- and nanocarriers as the delivery systems, (ii) Up-to-date encapsulation techniques in the areas of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and corrosion, (iii) The release methods of the encapsulated materials, and (iv) Industry perspectives, including scale up of the processes. Focuses on encapsulation processes in chemical and materials engineering and biotechnologyProvides a relevant resource for the pharmaceutical and food industriesPresents wide coverage on the entrapment of molecules that scales-up to industrial sized needs INDICE: 1.
