Biopolymers: Encapsulation Methods - Prata, Ana Silvia; Kurozawa, Louise Emy

This volume details encapsulation protocols with a focus on the combination of raw materials to enable an initial laboratory production of classic particles. Chapters guide readers through modification to produce porous starches, hydrogels, dry and insoluble particles, Layer-by-Layer, fluidized bed, and encapsulation methods and the general properties of the particles obtained. Written in the format of the Methods and Protocols in Food Science series, chapters list necessary materials and methods for readily reproducible protocols and contain notes on how to avoid and solve typical problems.

 Authoritative and cutting-edge, Biopolymers: Encapsulation Methods provides well-established protocols used by both academics and industrials.
