Development of sugar based biodegradable nanoencapsulators: Understanding the role of the alcohol injection method on the preparation of aqueous dispersions of sorbitan ester vesicles

Global environmental concerns on the production, usage and disposal of multiple human-made products have encouraged the study and development of new more ecological materials based on or inspired by biomolecules that may ultimately replace the current existing options. These efforts include the development of sugar-based surfactants. They have been increasingly adopted in selected applications to replace conventional surfactants. Sorbitan ester...
