Abstract
Research interest in the fields of functional food and bioactive delivery have led to the exploration of non-thermal novel delivery methods such as electrospinning. Over the past decade, various attempts have been conducted to use electrospinning as a suitable delivery method for bioactive components by using biopolymers including protein and polysaccharides. Aside from being low cost, having the ability to produce small size fibres and versatility of use for different food systems and functional ingredients, it is also highly adaptable to process requirements, i.e. easy to change the set up. Disadvantages of electrospinning revolve around technical problems for large scale production and the need for toxic solvent for electrospinning some materials.
