Mechanisms for the encapsulation of lipophilic polyphenols in protein/polysaccharide complexes or conjugates‐based nanocarriers

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Traditional heat processing technology restricts the direct development of lipophilic polyphenols (LPPs)‐fortified foods. For achieving a balance between high retention of biological activity and optimal edible quality, encapsulation of LPPs by proteins/polysaccharide complexes or conjugates‐based nanocarriers (PPCCNs) as food ingredients has ...
