A process is provided for releasably encapsulating a biological entity. The process comprise combining a solution of a surfactant in a non-polar solvent with a precursor material and the biological entity to form an emulsion. The emulsion comprises a polar phase dispersed in a non-polar phase, wherein the polar phase comprises the biological entity. The particles comprising the biological entity are then formed from the polar phase.

A method of making solid beads is disclosed, said method comprising: (i) providing a microfluidic device comprising a carrier fluid conduit and a functional fluid conduit which meet at a junction region; (ii) providing a laminar flow of a functional fluid comprising a solvent and a solute along the functional fluid conduit and providing a laminar flow of a carrier fluid along the carrier fluid conduit so as to form droplets of functional fluid in a flow of carrier fluid; (iii) cooling the segments of functional fluid in a conduit of the microfluidic device to form cooled (preferably frozen) droplets; and (iv) providing a liquid into intimate admixture with the cooled droplets so as to cause said solvent to exit said cooled droplets, thus forming solid beads. A microfluidic device for use in such a method is also disclosed.

This disclosure features a system for processing microspheres. A vessel contains a suspension of solidified microspheres comprising polymer and an active agent. A hydrocyclone has a fluid inlet, a first fluid outlet and a second fluid outlet. The fluid inlet is in fluid communication with the vessel and receives the suspension. The second fluid outlet contains a flow of the suspension having concentrated microspheres. The first fluid outlet contains a flow of a relatively large amount of liquid compared to the flow from the second fluid outlet. Also featured is a method of processing the microspheres using the hydrocyclone.

摘要:
The invention relates to a solid redispersible emulsion, which is comprised of an oil-in-water emulsion consisting of a laundry care constituent, which is encapsulated in an enclosure. This enclosure is stabilized by polyvalent metal ions and, initially, is water-insoluble and is rendered soluble by adding metal ions. The enclosure material is preferably a biodegradable material and, in particular, a polysaccharide, such as alginates, pectins or carrageenans. These solid and redispersible emulsions are used, in particular, in laundry care products.

Die Erfindung betrifft hochaktive kugelförmige Metall-Trägerkatalysatoren mit Metallgehalten von 10 bis 70 Masse-% und ein Verfahren zu deren Herstellung unter Verwendung eines Gemisches aus Polysacchariden und mindestens einer Metallverbindung, das in eine Metallsalzlösung vertropft wird.
摘要:
The present invention relates to particles for binding monovalent cations, in particular microcapsules, comprising a) a nucleus containing a cation exchanging material and applied thereon; b) a coating comprising a membrane being permeable for monovalent cations, in particular sodium, potassium, ammonium and hydrogen ions, wherein said membrane is essentially not disintegrated during passage through the intestinal tract of humans or animals. The invention further relates to the use of such particles for preparing monovalent cations containing foodstuff and/or monovalent cations containing food additives destined to be consumed by humans or animals or for preparing pharmaceutical compositions.
