Fish oils have many dietary benefits, but due to their strong odors and rapid deterioration, their application in food formulations is limited. For these reasons, nano-liposome was used to nano-encapsulate fish oil in this study and encapsulated fish oil was utilized in fortifying yogurt. Physicochemical properties of produced yogurt including pH, acidity, syneresis, fatty acid composition, per...

The effect of proportion of maltodextrin and gum arabic as carrier material and the percentage of nutmeg essential oil as flavor load on microencapsulation by spray drying was studied. The proportions of 0, 20, 40 and 60 percent gum arabic (w/w) in the carrier blend and 10, 20 and 30 percent nutmeg oil (w/w) as flavor load were studied. Emulsions were microencapsulated in a vertical co-current ...

background & aim: ziziphora l. genus belongs to the lamiaceae family, which has important medicinal and aromatic plant species. in current study, essential oil chemical compositions of two ziziphora l. species (z. tenuior l. and z. clinopodioides lam.) were investigated. experimental: the flowering branches of z. tenuior and z. clinopodioides were collected in spring and summer 2011. the ae...

the present study was carried out to determine the potential antibacterial effect of essential oil of origanumvulgare against antibiotic resistant e.coli. in this study, the essential oil of origanumvulgare obtained by hydrodistillation was analyzed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (gc-ms) in order to determine their chemical composition. the minimum inhibitory concentrations ...

PAMAM (polyamidoamine) dendrimers have been recently exploited as efficient and biocompatible unimolecular micelles for oil spill remediation utilizing their robust encapsulation capability. However, experimental evidence suggested that contrasting dispersion mechanisms of PAMAM exist toward different types of hydrocarbon ligands, including linear and polyaromatic oil molecules. Specifically, t...

UNLABELLED Microfluidic encapsulation methods have been previously utilized to capture cells in picoliter-scale aqueous, monodisperse drops, providing confinement from a bulk fluid environment with applications in high throughput screening, cytometry, and mass spectrometry. We describe a method to not only encapsulate single cells, but to repeatedly capture a set number of cells (here we demons...

abstract in order to evaluate the effects of different organic and biological fertilizers on quantity and quality of essential oil of fennel an experiment was conducted in a completely randomized block design with three replications. the experimental treatments were two organic (compost and vermicompost) and two biological (pseudomonas putida and azotobacter chroococcum ) fertilizers, their all...
