ENCAPSULATION OF IMMISCIBLE PHASES IN SILK FIBROIN BIOMATERIALS

摘要

Embodiments of various aspects described herein relates to compositions and methods for encapsulation and/or stabilization of oil, lipid, hydrophobic and/or lipophilic compounds in a silk-based material. The compositions described herein can be used in various applications, e.g., pharmaceutical, cosmetic, food, diagnostic, and tissue engineering applications.

主权项

1. A silk particle comprising at least two immiscible phases, a first immiscible phase comprising a silk-based material and a second immiscible phase comprising an active agent, wherein the first immiscible phase encapsulates the second immiscible phase and the second immiscible phase excludes a liposome.
