“…For this reason, it requires protection for long-term preservation [ 203 ]. Microencapsulation is a viable solution to protect fish oil in aquafeed, as this process forms a physical barrier called a “shell” around the “core” oil, which transforms liquid fat into free-flowing dry powder [ 204 , 205 ].…”

Driven by consumer demand and government policies, synthetic additives in aquafeed require substitution with sustainable and natural alternatives. Seaweeds have been shown to be a sustainable marine source of novel bioactive phenolic compounds that can be used in food, animal and aqua feeds, or microencapsulation applications. For example, phlorotannins are a structurally unique polymeric phenolic group exclusively found in brown seaweed that act through multiple antioxidant mechanisms. Seaweed phenolics show high affinities for binding proteins via covalent and non-covalent bonds and can have specific bioactivities due to their structures and associated physicochemical properties. Their ability to act as protein cross-linkers means they can be used to enhance the rheological and mechanical properties of food-grade delivery systems, such as microencapsulation, which is a new area of investigation illustrating the versatility of seaweed phenolics. Here we review how seaweed phenolics can be used in a range of applications, with reference to their bioactivity and structural properties.

“…N-3 PUFA are highly unstable due to the presence of multiple double bonds in the backbone of the molecules. Oxidative degradation can result in poor product quality, such as off-flavors and odors [177,178], due to the generation of free radicals and oxidative products [179,180]. Transition metals naturally present in food can act as a catalyst to lipid oxidation [181].…”

Today’s consumers are increasingly aware of the beneficial effects of n-3 PUFA in preventing, delaying, and intervening various diseases, such as coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, inflammatory and autoimmune disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, depression, and many other ailments. The role of n-3 PUFA on aging and cognitive function is also one of the hot topics in basic research, product development, and clinical applications. For decades, n-3 PUFA, especially EPA and DHA, have been supplied by fish oil and seafood. With the continuous increase of global population, awareness about the health benefits of n-3 PUFA, and socioeconomic improvement worldwide, the supply chain is facing increasing challenges of insufficient production. In this regard, microalgae have been well considered as promising sources of n-3 PUFA oil to mitigate the supply shortages. The use of microalgae to produce n-3 PUFA-rich oils has been explored for over two decades and some species have already been used commercially to produce n-3 PUFA, in particular EPA- and/or DHA-rich oils. In addition to n-3 PUFA, microalgae biomass contains many other high value biomolecules, which can be used in food, dietary supplement, pharmaceutical ingredient, and feedstock. The present review covers the health benefits of n-3 PUFA, EPA, and DHA, with particular attention given to the various approaches attempted in the nutritional interventions using EPA and DHA alone or combined with other nutrients and bioactive compounds towards improved health conditions in people with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease. It also covers the applications of microalgae n-3 PUFA in food and dietary supplement sectors and the economic and environmental sustainability of using microalgae as a platform for n-3 PUFA-rich oil production.

“…Os resultados indicaram que o uso de substratos têxteis impregnados com submicropartículas carregadas com repelente de insetos é um sistema promissor de proteção contra o mosquito Aedes aegypti. Industrialmente diversas técnicas de microencapsulação já foram relatadas, dentre as quais a secagem por atomização é a mais utilizada devido ao seu baixo custo, flexibilidade e facilidade de escalonamento (WANG, 2018).…”

“…Os fundamentos da nanotecnologia residem no fato de que as propriedades dos materiais mudam radicalmente quando suas dimensões são reduzidas à escala nanométrica. A indústria têxtil está se tornando uma das principais indústrias beneficiárias dos avanços da nanotecnologia, devido ao grande potencial dessa tecnologia ser aplicada em produtos direcionados aos consumidores (SAWHNEY et al, 2008, XIN;WANG, 2018, BUYLE et al, 2009. Na cadeia produtiva de têxteis os setores que mais avançaram no uso da nanotecnologia foram os de fibras, filamentos, beneficiamento ou acabamento e nãotecidos (SAWHNEY et al, 2008) conforme Figura 1.…”

“…No caso da nanotecnologia aplicada a acabamentos, as nanopartículas com efeito de retardante de chamas, propriedades antimicrobianas e antiestáticas, controle de umidade, proteção ultravioleta e eficiência de liberação de ativos apresentam melhor afinidade com os tecidos (KIRON, 2012), porém com o desafio de produzir acabamentos que não afetem o toque e a permeabilidade ao ar do tecido, e ao mesmo tempo melhorando o desempenho da durabilidade, repelência a manchas, resistência a rugas (SAWHNEY et al, 2008;XIN;WANG, 2018;BUYLE et al, 2009;BERNIER;GURMAN;ELMAN, 2015).…”
