Microencapsulation: An overview on concepts, methods, …
2021年6月18日 · Microencapsulation is an advanced food processing technology, using which any compound can be encapsulated inside a particular material, making a tiny sphere of diameter ranging from 1 μm to several 100 μm. Microencapsulation is done for protecting the sensitive compounds and, hence, ensuring their safe delivery.
Micro-encapsulation - Wikipedia
Microencapsulation is a process in which tiny particles or droplets are surrounded by a coating to give small capsules, with useful properties. [1][2] In general, it is used to incorporate food ingredients, [3] enzymes, cells or other materials on a micro metric scale.
Microencapsulation - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Microencapsulation is a process in which small droplets or particles with useful properties are coated to provide lightweight capsules. Microencapsulation is generally used to add food ingredients, bioactive compounds, enzymes, live cells or other materials at a micrometric level (Ozkan et al., 2019).
Microencapsulation - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Microencapsulation is defined as a technology for packaging solids, liquids, and even gaseous materials in microparticle matrices that can release their contents at controlled rates and under specific conditions.

Microparticles offer various significant advantages as drug delivery systems, including: (i) an effective protection of the encapsulated active agent against (e.g. enzymatic) degradation, (ii) the possibility to accurately control the release rate of the incorporated drug over periods of hours to months, (iii) an easy administration (compared to...
Microencapsulation is a technology that serves as a tool to protect the sensitive and expensive nutrients (Meyers et al., 1998), by provid-ing them with a protective wall, which allows them to get released at a particular site, at a particular time, and under particular conditions.
Microencapsulation and Its Uses in Food Science and …
2018年7月17日 · Microencapsulation is the science of trapping components (core or active) into a secondary material (encapsulant, wall material, carrier, or cover), producing small solid particles (1–500 μm in size) [8]. These particles are able to release their contents at a specified rate or under specific conditions [1].
