ACKGROUND: Nowadays, it is of great interest to develop stable and sustainable formulations that act as nanocarriers of active ingredients. In this work, the droplet size distribution, rheology and physical stability of ...

The present work deals with the synthesis of micro-structured biomaterials based on chitosan (CTS) for their applications as biocompatible carriers of drugs and bioactive compounds. Twelve dispersions were prepared by ...

This study proposes a biorefinery approach system to treat two berry extrudates generated by the berry-tasted products industry. The berry extrudates studied were strawberry extrudate (SE1 and SE2) and raspberry extrudate ...

Low-acyl gellan gum fluid gels were obtained using two different gel-promoting cations under the same processing conditions, and their rheological properties were investigated. For that reason, stress and frequency sweep ...

Diutan gum is a biological polymer produced by Sphingomonas sp. In aqueous solution it shows gel-like structure under quiescent conditions. However, the flow-induced evolution of its viscoelastic properties and its ...

In this work the microstructure and the physical stability of emulsions containing α-pinene and gellan gum were studied as a function of Atlas™ G-5000/Atlox™ 4912 copolymer mass ratio, R, used as emulsifier. In order to ...

The objective of this work was to develop emulsions containing lemongrass essential oil and Appyclean 6552 (emulsifier). The emulsions were prepared using two different processing techniques: microfluidization and sonication. ...

The influence of EO/BO block copolymer surfactant concentration in the range (1–5% (m/m)) and emulsification time on the emulsion stability and droplet size distribution of bitter fennel essential oil-in-water emulsions ...

The objective of this work is to obtain a stable and natural antimicrobial delivery system. Thus, the effect of the addition of a natural polysaccharide such as welan gum on the linear viscoelastic properties, flow behaviour, ...

This study aims to extend the range of applications of tragacanth gum by studying its incorporation into bioplastics formulation, exploring the influence that different gum contents (0–20 wt.%) exert over the thermomechanical ...
