Abstract

Chitosan microcapsules were prepared by microreactor method and conventional batch method using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent and L-a-phosphatidylcholine as an emulsifier. The mean particle sizes of microcapsules prepared by microreactor and batch method were 1.10 and 1.96 mm, respectively. The former microcapsules showed narrower size distribution than those of the latter one.
