Nanoencapsulation of Different Bioactiveisoprenoids. Nanoencapsulation and Targeted Delivery of Different Enzymes. Nanoencapsulated Probiotics and Prebiotics. Trends and Future Prospects in Nanoencapsulation of Plant Phenolics (Flavonoids, Anthocyanins, Tannins).This book presents a comprehensive look at various nanosystems/nanocarriers, physical and chemical techniques used in encapsulation of various nutraceuticals and the targeted delivery of nutraceutics. It discusses multiple applications of nanoencapsulation techniques used on nutraceuticals derived from plants, animals as well as microalgae.

Nutraceutical encapsulation envelopes protection of products from oxidative damage, controlled delivery of nanoencapsulated nutraceuticals and improved nutraceutical bioavailability as well as biological action. It is a promising technique to ensure the stabilization of such labile compounds and to protect the core ingredients from premature reactions and interactions In a comprehensive manner, the Handbook of Nanoencapsulation: Preparation, Characterization, Delivery and Safety of Nutraceutical Nanocomposites presents various nanosystems/nanocarriers, physilC1
