Peptide nanoencapsulation
Bioactive peptides are short sequences of amino acids that come from protein hydrolysis, remain inactive when the protein is complete, and acquire their activity when released. Bioactive peptides are relevant in the metabolic functions of organisms. The functions of some bioactive peptides with ther...

| Sumario: | Bioactive peptides are short sequences of amino acids that come from protein hydrolysis, remain inactive when the protein is complete, and acquire their activity when released. Bioactive peptides are relevant in the metabolic functions of organisms. The functions of some bioactive peptides with therapeutic applications for humans have been identified, among which their antimicrobial, antithrombotic, and antihypertensive functions stand out, among others, in addition to their use as a preventive treatment. One way to protect the activity of bioactive peptides for administration is the nanoencapsulation technique through which nanoscale particles with a protective barrier are generated. This article is a review of the peptide nanoencapsulation technique and includes some physical characteristics to consider for the finished product such as encapsulation efficiency (EE) and morphology determination |
