Blue California now offers full-capacity microencapsulation services, from pilots to scale-up work to large-capacity production. The R&D services offered include formulation development, feasibility studies and proof-of concept for new ideas and scale-up work to ensure a smooth and successful transition from research to full-scale production. Microencapsulation is a process by which tiny particles or droplets (ranging in size from a few nanometers to one micron) are coated with a protective layer to create small capsules with controlled properties. This process can provide many benefits, such as protecting vitamins from oxygen’s deteriorating effects and probiotics from gastric acid; masking taste or odor; and controlling the rate at which the particles leave the microcapsule.
