The invention relates to self-assembling microparticles comprising a solid matrix and probiotic bacteria, wherein the solid matrix comprises soybean protein and a divalent or trivalent metal, and wherein the probiotic bacteria are distributed throughout the solid matrix; said matrix protects said probiotic bacteria during processing, storage, as well as during transit through the gastrointestinal tract, thus prolonging their lifetime and facilitating release into the intestine and improving their probiotic effect. The present invention also relates to the method for obtaining the self-assembling microparticles and to the products and compositions incorporating them.

Microparticles for encapsulating probiotics, obtaining said microparticles and uses thereof

The present invention relates to nanoparticles for encapsulating compounds, the preparation and uses thereof, comprising a casein matrix, a basic amino acid and a metal selected from a divalent metal, a trivalent metal and combinations thereof. Said nanoparticles can encapsulate a water soluble or fat soluble biologically active compound. The invention is applicable in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic sectors and in the nanotechnology sector.

Nanoparticles for the encapsulation of compounds, preparation thereof and use of same

The invention relates to microparticles comprising a matrix formed by casein and chitosan, and probiotic bacteria; said matrix protects said probiotic bacteria during (i) processing, (ii) storage and (iii) transit through the gastrointestinal tract, prolonging their lifetime.
