Abstract

The aim of the work is to create methods for obtaining polysaccharide capsules based on aqueous extracts of seaweed for the subsequent development of dosage forms and food products of increased authenticity and biological quality that correspond to the current level of knowledge about the role of nutrition in maintaining health and meet the requirements of the consumer market. The article presents a brief analysis of the scientific and technical literature on the issues of obtaining encapsulated forms of nutrients that can be used in the creation of functional food products, considers the main methods and techniques of microcapsulation and describes the results of search experiments to determine the gel-forming ability of kelp gel and sodium alginate, as well as to study the process of dissolving tablets with different coatings in modes that simulate the conditions of the stomach and intestines.
