Polycaprolactone multicore-matrix particle for the simultaneous encapsulation of hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds produced by membrane emulsification and solvent diffusion pro... by A. Imbrogno, Marijana M. Dragosavac, Emma Piacentini, Goran T. Vladisavljevic, R.G. Holdich, L. Giorno

“…The compartmentalized structure of the multicore-matrix particle combined with the different chemical properties of polycaprolactone (matrix material) and fish gelatin (core material) was tested for the simultaneous encapsulation of hydrophilic (copper ions) and hydrophobic (α-tocopherol) test components. The best operating conditions for the solidification of the particles to achieve the highest encapsulation efficiency of copper ions and α-tocopherol of 99 (±4)% and 93(±6)% respectively were found. …”
