Advancements in Spray‐Drying for the Microencapsulation of Fat‐Soluble Vitamins: Stability, Bioavailability, and Applications

Journal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: Spray‐drying is a well‐established method for producing free‐flowing microencapsulated powders, especially for fat‐soluble vitamins (FSVs) like A, D, and E. This process enhances the stability and protection of FSVs against environmental degradation.

High Pressure Extraction as a Green Alternative to the Conventional Sunflower Oil (Helianthus annuus) Production Process – Extraction with Pressurized Ethanol in an Intermittent Process and with Supercritical Fluid

Global Challenges, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2024.
Consumable vegetable oils are extracted using hexane, a petroleum‐derived, non‐renewable solvent. Green technological alternatives must be studied to replace this conventional technology, which can leave toxic residues in the oil. The optimization of sunflower oil extraction using two methods that employ green solvents, PLE with ethanol and SFE with ...

Structural and functional stabilization of bacteriophage particles within the aqueous core of a W/O/W multiple emulsion: a potential biotherapeutic system for the inhalational treatment of bacterial pneumonia [PDF]

, 2018
The increase of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is growing every day, most likely associated with the indiscriminate use of these antimicrobials or even with evolutionary adaptability of bacteria to their environment.

A Perennial Green Revolution to address 21st‐century food insecurity and malnutrition

Food and Energy Security, Volume 13, Issue 4, July/August 2024.
Abstract Farming practices of the past century have dramatically increased annual crop yields to unprecedented levels but have consequentially created increasing ecological and public health concerns, posing a long‐term threat to global food security. Soil tillage and chemical inputs perpetuate soil erosion, biodiversity loss, wetlands eutrophication ...

Indigenous and colonial influences on Amazonian forests

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 803-823, July 2024.
Global climate models that incorporate carbon sources and sinks usually consider that forest uptake of carbon is in a state of equilibrium. Both historical and paleoecological records suggest that this is commonly not the case for Amazonia. Here, the impacts of colonial practices on Amazonian Indigenous peoples and forests are reviewed.

Development of a water-in-oil-in-water multiple emulsion system integrating biomimetic aqueous-core lipid nanodroplets for protein entity stabilization. Part I: experimental factorial design [PDF]

, 2016
Lipid nanoballoons integrating multiple emulsions of the type water-in-oil-in-water enclose, at least in theory, a biomimetic aqueous-core suitable for housing hydrophilic biomolecules such as proteins, peptides and bacteriophage particles. The research
