“…There is a variety of proteins that can be used to fabricate nanoparticles for delivery and emulsification systems, such as caseinate, soy proteins, whey proteins, and zein (Cheng, Mario, & Jones, 2019). Zein, as an inert macromolecule, has been exploited in numerous commercial applications using a wide variety of methods such as electrospinning (Wang et al, 2020), film-casting (Teerakarn et al, 2010), solution blow spinning (Liu et al, 2016), and electrospraying (Francisco et al, 2019;Kang et al, 2021), as well as the anti-solvent precipitation (ASP), liquid-liquid dispersion, electroplating (Joye et al, 2013), and anti-solvent nanoprecipitation technique (Pascoli et al, 2018). Nanoparticles prepared by electrospraying and anti-solvent precipitation have a spherical and compact morphology with the size distribution of 10-447 nm (Francisco et al, 2019;Jiang et al, 2019).…”
