Bio-based Nano-emulsions for Agri-food Applications

Recent agricultural, food, and pharmaceutical research focuses attention on the development of delivery systems that can encapsulate, protect, and deliver natural compounds. Nanoemulsions are recognized as the best delivery systems for natural-origin nutraceuticals and phytochemicals, having many agri-food applications. Bio-based Nano-emulsions for Agri-Food Applications provides information on food-grade nanoemulsions and their application in agriculture and the food industry. This book covers concepts, techniques, current advances, and challenges in the formulation of the application of emerging food grade nanoemulsions. Particular attention is placed on food-grade nanoemulsion production methods and components used, such as plant/microbial products, biosurfactants, cosurfactants, emulsifiers, ligand targets, and bioactive/functional ingredients. This is an important reference source for materials scientists, engineers and food scientists who are looking to understand how nanoemulsions are being used in the agri-food sector. Provides an overview of a range of bio-based nanoemulsions used in the agrifood sector Explores how nanotechnology improves the properties of bio-based emulsions Assesses the major challenges of manufacturing nanoemulsions at an industrial scale INDICE: Section 1: Biobased nanoemulsion: Formulation, Evaluation and application1.
