Protection of bioactive oils using encapsulation solutions

Posted: 24 August 2017 | | No comments yet

Bioactive oils are commonly used in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications. Those oils are usually rich in unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids.

The majority of fatty acids can be produced by the human body, however omega-3 and omega-6, essential in human nutrition, cannot be synthetized and must be provided by food.
