Liposomes have been used primarily for drug delivery, and there has
been only been limited development of this technology in the food
industry. This volume helps to fill that gap by focusing on the
advanced trends and applications of liposomes in the nutraceuticals
and functional foods industry. The volume begins by discussing the
processes and protocols of formation of liposomes and the
structures of liposomes produced by different methods. It then
reviews their physico-chemical properties and the science of
encapsulation of bioactive compounds using liposomes. It continues
with an overview of liposomal methods, protocols, preparation
techniques and explores the uses of liposomes as drug carriers but
focuses primarily on liposomal carrier systems and technology in
bioactive functional foods and nutraceuticals. The volume presents
advances on liposomes as anti-tubercular and anticancer delivery
systems and also discusses liposomal supplements. Liposomes for
Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals: From Research to Application
will be a valuable resource for those who produce lipids and those
who seek to incorporate them into appropriate food products.
