An astaxanthin-containing lipid extract from shrimp waste was encapsulated by spray drying
to expand its use as a food ingredient. Maltodextrin and gum arabic, separately or mixed …

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid produced by different organisms and microorganisms such as
microalgae, bacteria, yeasts, protists, and plants, and it is also accumulated in aquatic …

Astaxanthin-loaded liposomes were prepared by employing a thin-film ultrasound method
with the utilization of soy phosphatidylcholine. The preparation conditions of astaxanthin …

In this work a lipid extract from shrimp waste was obtained and characterized. The most
abundant fatty acids found were C16: 0, C18: 2n6c, C18: 1n9c, C22: 6n3, and C20: 5n3. The …

Crustacean byproducts are valuable sources of astaxanthin. In this study, an astaxanthin-
rich lipid phase was extracted from shrimp waste and encapsulated in multilayer emulsions …

Background Astaxanthin is a xanthophyll carotenoid, which exhibits many important
biological activities including a high degree of antioxidant capacity (AOC) and antibacterial …

In the present work, the suitability of cashew gum for forming coacervates with gelatin and
