Magnetic and Dyed Microcapsules From the Spores of Clubmoss

In this article we describe the preparation of bioavailable microcapsules derived from spores clubmoss ( Lycopodium clavatum ) that are composed protein-free, non-allergenic, and porous sporopollenin, often described as nature’s most robust polymeric system. We adsorption magnetic materials onto exterior surfaces empty incorporation molecular passengers , thereby producing stable monodispersed, bifunctional particles/vehicles 25 microns in size can respond to, or targeted by, applied fields.
