Cosmetic Industry
The cosmetics and personal care products sector is a multi-billion dollar international market and has shown great expansion. To be successful in such a competitive and demanding sector, the products must differentiate, which can be achieved by means of using emergent technologies, such as microencapsulation.
Food Industry
In the food industry, liposomes have been used to deliver food flavors and nutrients and more recently have been investigated for their ability to incorporate food antimicrobials that could aid in the protection of food products against growth of spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms.
