A new type of drug delivery system that microcapsule was prepared by liposome in alginate on this paper, bovine serum albumin (BSA) as an model drug. Influences of liposomes composition and multivalent cations on morphology, enveloped rate, integrality and release in vitro from microcapsule were investigated. The results are showed that Ca2+ and Ba2+ made hydrogels form easier than Al3+ and particle size were uniform, circular, but microcapsule prepared by Al3+ was flat circular and easily adhere to each other. Particle size of all microcapsules was 200-300 microm after dryness, measured by vernier calliper. BSA enveloped rate prepared by PC/PG/Chol and Ba2+ was highest, 77.65%, and also correlative to concentration of lipid. At the other hand, Ba2+ microcapsule prepared by liposome in alginate has not an initial burst and have a good performance on delivering protein. Integrality of protein was not destroyed after encapsulated.

Critical issues such as leakage, degradation, and thermal response hysteresis have become the focus in the application of phase change materials (PCMs) in area such as thermal management of fabrics. The encapsulation of PCMs prepared as microcapsules using polysiloxanes, etc. as a component unit of crosslinking agents represents a highly promising avenue of research.

In this study, composite films were developed by encapsulating cassia oil (CO) with β-cyclodextrin through a microencapsulation technique and incorporating it into a chitosan (CS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and glycerol matrix. The primary objective of the film was to inhibit bacterial growth on the surface of fresh bananas and extend their shelf life. Characterization methods were employed to evaluate the physical properties and functionality of the composite films.

Due to health reasons of polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR), there has been a growing interest in reducing it. To address this, this study developed the PGPR/Protein (whey, pea, and chickpea protein isolates) emulsifier combinations. The effects of these combinations on the preparation, structure, physicochemical and in vitro digestive properties of W/O/W microcapsules were evaluated.

The canine elbow joint is innervated by four nerves: the musculocutaneous, median, radial, and ulnar nerves. There is little data in the veterinary literature examining the course of the articular branches of those nerves. There is also no agreement as to their anatomical location in the joint capsule nor to their number.

The insufficient density and discontinuity of solar energy of photothermal superhydrophobic flexible film seriously affect the practical application. Light energy harvesting and heat energy storage are effective ways to solve this problem. Inspired by the viscous temperature-regulating material within the inflorescence of Lobelia telekii and the arrangement of bracts on its surface, a flexible film for photoheat storage is proposed that integrated a three-order photoheat trap and one-order heat storage.
