and may be
formulated in such a way as to allow for controlled release of
carotenoids. In addition, the smaller droplets used to coat the
carotenoid-containing, larger droplet could be loaded with concentrated
antioxidants to protect carotenoids in the inner droplet.
This might prove especially useful since the antioxidants would
be concentrated at the site of the prooxidant attack rather than
being diluted throughout the system.
