Over the past few decades, several protocell models have been developed that mimic certain essential characteristics of living cells. These protocells tend to be highly reductionist simplifications of living cells with prominent bilayer membrane boundaries, encapsulated metabolisms and/or encapsulated biologically-derived polymers as potential sources of information coding. In parallel with thi...

A suitable formulation to improve Lavandin essential oil applicability as biocide has been study in this project. Agrochemical formulations are required to be long-term physical stable and enhance biological performance of the agrochemical. Particle encapsulation of lavandin oil had been considered as possible formulation. Two high pressure spray techniques (PGSS and PGSS drying) had been appli...

background: escherichia coli o157:h7 is a gram-negative and facultative anaerobic food-borne bacterial pathogen. the major purpose of this study was to evaluate physicochemical characteristics of nanoliposome garlic essential oil (eo) and its antibacterial effect on e. coli o157:h7. methods: nanoliposome garlic eo was prepared by ethanol injection method and its physicochemical properties were ...

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...

In this work by encapsulation technique we have synthetized three new clove bud essential oil (CEO) Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC) formulations depending on the carrier (synthetic zeolite- F-CSZ, nature F-CNZ and gelatin- F-CG). The main idea was to develop an eco-friendly biopesticide that can find use in plant protection as alternative of conventional pesticides. By wanted enable water solubil...

The effect of different commercial modified food starch carrier materials on the flavor retention of the essential oil (EO) of peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) during spray drying and storage was evaluated. The obtained results revealed that the emulsification and encapsulation efficiencies of peppermint EO were higher for all n-octenyl succinic anhydride (OSAN)-modified starches as compared to ...

The stable fly, Stomoxys calcitrans (Diptera: Muscidae), is one of the most important pests of cattle and costs U.S. cattle producers billions of dollars in losses annually. In this study, the efficacy of catnip oil encapsulated in gelatin in oviposition deterrence and larval growth inhibition in stable flies was examined under laboratory conditions. More than 98% inhibition of stable fly larva...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Many essential oils have been reported as natural sources of insect repellents; however, due to high volatility, they present low repellent effect. Formulation technique by using microencapsulation enables to control the volatility of essential oil and thereby extends the duration of repellency. In this study, the effectiveness of microencapsulated essential oils of Alpi...
