Protection of α-Tocopherol from UV-Induced Degradation by Encapsulation into Zein Nanoparticles

Molecules
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin with several forms. Among these, α-tocopherol (TOC) is preferentially absorbed and accumulated in humans. In the body, it acts as an antioxidant, helping to protect cells from the damage caused by free radicals.
