Handbook of Nutraceuticals
摘要
This book covers different stages of development of nutraceuticals and nano nutraceuticals, emphasizing their manufacturing techniques and formulations. The physicochemical behaviour of
nutraceuticals and nano nutraceuticals and innovative characterization techniques are presented. Various types of formulation methods and pharmacologic and pharmacokinetic evaluations are described. Moreover, the controlled delivery of nutraceuticals and nano nutraceuticals components is covered in several chapters. The book reviews various classes of natural and biodegradable polymers used to prepare nutraceuticals and nano nutraceuticals based delivery system. It provides details about in vitro evaluation for testing the effectiveness of nutrient delivery systems. The bioavailability, food additives, and encapsulation techniques are discussed. A chapter on the future of controlled release technologies of nutraceuticals and nano nutraceuticals is an additional highlight of this book.
