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. The present invention also relates to the method for obtaining the microparticles and to the products and compositions incorporating them.

Microparticles for encapsulating probiotics, production and uses thereof

The invention relates to nanoparticles comprising a biodegradable polymer, a cyclodextrin or a derivative thereof, and a biologically active molecule. Said nanoparticles can associate large amounts of biologically active molecules, especially of a hydrophobic nature, and release the biologically active molecule providing sustained and constant plasma levels thereof when they are administered orally or through any other mucosa of the organism.

Nanoparticles comprising a cyclodextrin and a biologically active molecule and uses thereof

The present invention relates to nanoparticles for the encapsulation of compounds, the obtaining and uses thereof. The nanoparticles comprise a zein matrix and a basic amino acid. The nanoparticles can encapsulate a water-soluble or fat-soluble biologically active compound. It is applicable in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic sectors and in the nanotechnology sector.
