Abstract
The use of food encapsulation systems using lipid-based matrices, like emulsions, liposomes and lipid particles can help overcome two drawbacks often related to hydrophobic bioactive substances: (i) the difficulty of their dispersion in food formulations, which are predominantly water-based and (ii) low bioavailability in the gastrointestinal tract, especially in relation to the complexity of absorption in the small intestine. Lipids can help to increase the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of such bioactives because they can increase gastric retention time, slowing delivery to the absorption site, affect the physical and biochemical barrier function of gastrointestinal tract and also stimulate the secretion of lipid salts and endogenous biliary lipids. Among the colloidal encapsulation systems, which can be produced using lipid matrices, there are the liposomes and lipid particles (micro and nano). In this chapter, liposomes and lipid nanoparticles, two systems in which the interest of food scientists and technologists has been increasing in the last 10 years, are described in terms of structure. Also, their various methods of production are shown, as well as their possible utilization in food formulations.
