Paper on stabilisation of HCA by encapsulation

This deliverable will be a journal paper describing the methods and results on stabilisation of HCAs by encapsulation. This will include testing of different polymers such as: chitosan, poly-lactic-acid, poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), and poly ethylene glycol (PEG). Factors such as release profile of the active ingredient from the encapsulating material and skin permeation will be reported.
