SUBÁREA: Engenharia de Alimentos
SUMMARY:

Studies combined with the growing search and use of drugs, natural foods and nutraceuticals based on bioactive compounds have been awakened around the world, thus configuring an industrial concern, due to the weaknesses in relation to environmental and biological factors that imply losses irreversible in the product, so that the technological microencapsulation process guarantees the protection of the particles of interest against such factors, preserving the bioactive compound. In this context, the complex coacervation process formed between the globular protein ovalbumin and the polysaccharide sodium alginate will be used to encapsulate β-carotene using calcium chloride as a crosslinking agent. The biopolymers and complexes formed will be analyzed using zeta-potential, turbidimetric analysis, isothermal titration calorimetry, and to confirm encapsulation, infrared spectroscopy techniques with Fourier transformation, differential scanning calorimetry and scanning electron microscopy will be used. and, finally, gastrointestinal simulation, biacessibility, stability and controlled release of encapsulated β-carotene will occur. However, this study hopes to provide relationships that can contribute beneficially to human health and general well-being by contributing to the preservation of encapsulated β-carotene and adding knowledge and development aimed at future work.
