Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on creating polysaccharide multilayer capsules designed to control the release of Eugenol (Eug) for its use as an antimicrobial agent.
- The capsules are made using a Layer-by-Layer (LbL) technique, incorporating chitosan and carboxymethylcellulose, with sizes ranging from 188 to 1415 nm and achieving a maximum Eugenol incorporation efficiency of about 70.8%.
- The release of Eugenol from these capsules decreases with more layers, showing reduced initial burst releases and enhanced antifungal activity against various pathogens, making them a promising option for antifungal applications.
