Microencapsulation of Lactobacillus acidophilus in zein–alginate core–shell microcapsules via electrospraying
Survival of probiotic bacteria, namely, Lactobacillus acidophilus, in gastric fluid was enhanced by embedding the bacterial cells in alginate microcapsules, which were formed by electrospraying; the resultant microcapsules were then coated with citric acid-modified zein and dried at ambient temperat...
