The limited aqueous solubility of bioactive pharmaceutical
ingredients presents a tremendous challenge in the development of
new drugs. In recent years, methods have been developed to protect
these sensitive bioactive compounds, namely antioxidants, with the
aim of increasing the public sanitation grades. Emulsion-based
systems are particularly interesting as colloidal delivery
encapsulation systems, because they can easily be created from
food-grade ingredients using relatively simple processing
protocols. It is one of the most favorable delivery systems to
increase the solubility of phytochemicals, nutraceuticals and food
additives. Emulsion-based Encapsulation of Antioxidants: Design and
Performance advances the field of colloid science through the
investigation of the effects of formulation and process parameters
that influence emulsion production. The book offers a deeper
comprehension of the technological and biological aspects of the
incorporation of encapsulated compounds in food matrices and
explication of their activity. Chapters provide an overview of the
status of emulsion-based formulations to encapsulate antioxidants,
fabrication, properties, applications, and biological fate with
emphasis on systems suitable for utilization within industry.
Special emphasis is placed on the antioxidant activity of the
carriers being the key advantage of these emulsion-based systems.
The main aim of the book is to inspire and to guide fellow
scientists and students in this field. Filled with illustrations,
figures, case studies, practical examples, and historical
perspectives, the book can also be used as a practical handbook or
graduate textbook. For industry professionals, the book presents
easy-to-achieve approaches to industrial pharmaceutical production.
