Use of Electrosprayed Agave Fructans as Nanoencapsulating Hydrocolloids for Bioactives

High degree of polymerization Agave fructans (HDPAF) are presented as a novel encapsulating material. Electrospraying coating (EC) was selected as the encapsulation technique and β-carotene as the model bioactive compound. For direct electrospraying, two encapsulation methodologies (solutio...
