Abstract
Developing and marketing vitamin rich food products are major challenge because of efficient nutritional delivery system, longer stability, and shelf life. Nanoemulsified and nanoencapsulated vitamin based nanoemulsions have been developed to overcome these issues. Recently, vitamin based nanoemulsions have been developed and also been marketed. Here in this review, (i) several vitamin enriched nanoemulsions have been discussed in which different oils have been used to meet specific need (ii) the opportunities of such products in markets and research have been discussed; (iii) the conventional nanoemulsion characterization techniques have been discussed and also (iv) non-conventional and newly developed characterization techniques have been discussed to show their future and impact on nanoemulsion characterization.
