Micro/Nano-Encapsulation of Active Food Ingredients

This book highlights recent innovation in encapsulation and controlled release technologies, as well as design principle of novel food delivery systems. In addition, it also provided some new directions and opportunities that can arise from the development of new nanostructured biomaterials for the fabrication of delivery vehicles and carriers for active food ingredients. This book is intended to be used as either a textbook or a reference that will give the readers a good grasp of basic concepts and potentials of encapsulation technologies, as well as their novel applications in food systems.
