Abstract
Disclosed are homogenized formulations that comprise microcapsules, wherein the microcapsules comprise an agglomeration of primary microcapsules and a loading substance, where each individual primary microcapsule has a primary shell, and the loading substance is encapsulated by the primary shell, and wherein the agglomeration is encapsulated by an outer shell. Also, disclosed are methods of making and using homogenized formulations by providing a pre-homogenized composition comprising one or more microcapsules and then homogenizing the composition. Some specific homogenization processes described are ultrasonic and pressure-based homogenizations.
