Mechanisms of in vitro controlled release of astaxanthin from starch-based double emulsion carriers

The aim of the present study was to illuminate the controlled release mechanism of Astaxanthin (AST) from the biocompatible double emulsions fabricated by inexpensive, renewable and biodegradable native starch (SDEs) using a novel two-step emulsification. The storage stability of the four types of A...

Description
Summary:The aim of the present study was to illuminate the controlled release mechanism of Astaxanthin (AST) from the biocompatible double emulsions fabricated by inexpensive, renewable and biodegradable native starch (SDEs) using a novel two-step emulsification. The storage stability of the four types of AST-loaded SDEs was evaluated. The results indicated that SDEs prepared with a native corn starch concentration of 7 wt% (7% NCS DEs), and a droplet size of approximately 8 μm without stratification, exhibited excellent storage stability for 35 d. The chemical stability of AST remaining for 7% NCS DEs after 35 d was 90%. The AST-loaded SDEs displayed a high encapsulation efficiency (96%). The release of AST-loaded SDEs was
