Microfibrillated cellulose-reinforced alginate microbeads for delivery of palm-based vitamin E: Characterizations and in vitro evaluation

In this study, palm-based vitamin E-loaded emulsions were immobilized within microfibrillated cellulose-reinforced alginate microbeads by dripping vitamin E-loaded emulsions into the crosslinking solution. FTIR spectrum of crosslinked microbeads demonstrated the characteristic peaks of vitamin E at...
