Nanoemulsions: Formulation, Applications, and Characterization provides detailed information on the production, application and characterization of food nanoemulsion as presented by experts who share a wealth of experience. Those involved in the nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries will find this a useful reference as it addresses findings related to different preparation and formulation methods of nanoemulsions and their application in different fields and products. As the last decade has seen a major shift from conventional emulsification processes towards nanoemulsions that both increase the efficiency and stability of emulsions and improve targeted drug and nutraceutical delivery, this book is a timely resource.
Researchers in the nanoemulsion technology food science field; scientists from industry, academia, and governmental agencies; and policy makers on food science and nutrition, food engineering, chemical engineering, pharmaceuticals, chemistry, physical chemistry, and bioscience
