Progress in Construction and Food Application of Chitosan-based Nutrient Delivery System

Blog Article

Chitosan is a naturally-occurring alkaline polysaccharide with excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, low toxicity, and easy preparation.It has been widely used in the construction of delivery systems for various nutrients and bioactive substances.The chitosan-based nutrient delivery systems are mainly constructed by cross-linking, drying, layer-by-layer self-assembly, coalescence, covalent grafting, microfluidics and biosynthesis.Chitosan Pestle can be combined with carbohydrates, proteins and liposomes to form a composite copyright that can obtain more excellent performance and broaden its application in food packaging materials, slow release of Industrial:Restaurant bioactive substances and probiotic embedding.In addition, this paper further analyzes the obstacles and limitations of the actual application of chitosan-based nutrient delivery systems in the food industry, to provide important references for the application of chitosan-based delivery carriers in imparting new functional properties to foods, developing new food ingredients, and nutrient fortification.
