Carotenoids are potent antioxidants, but they are highly unstable and susceptible during
processing and storage. Encapsulation technologies protect against degradation and are …

Natural pigments provide a range of appealing colors to flowers, fruits, and vegetables while
exhibiting potential beneficial health effects. In contrast, synthetic food colorants are often …

Whey protein isolate (WPI) and soy protein isolate (SPI) were used as emulsifiers and
structure-modifying agents to produce alginate-based emulsion gel beads. The purpose of …

The application of lycopene, a potent antioxidant, is limited because of its hydrophobic
nature and low chemical stability. To overcome this, different delivery systems, ie oil-in-water …

Sodium alginate is one of the most interesting and the most investigated and applied
biopolymers due to its advantageous properties. Among them, easy, simple, mild, rapid, non …

This work aims to encapsulate anthocyanins and phenolic compounds extracted from a
native Brazilian fruit peel-jabuticaba (Plinia cauliflora (Mart.) Kausel) and propolis from …

In alginate-based emulsion gels containing protein-coated droplets, pH can influence the
gelation mechanism of alginate gels, and the interactions between alginate molecules and …

Lycopene belongs to carotenoid group having lipophilic nature with strong antioxidant
potential against numerous diseases. Hence, it has been used extensively in functional …

The aim of this work was to evaluate the influence of the type of polymer and the effect of
drying on the stability of lycopene-rich beads obtained by ionic gelation of a watermelon …

Novel drug delivery system endows a beneficial method for achieving a desired drug
concentration at the appropriate site in the body. The concept of targeted drug delivery has …
