Nanoemulsions, Properties, Enzymes, MicroscopyAbstract
Food quality, food preservation, and food safety are the most significant concerns in the food industry currently.1 Moreover, consumers demand for minimally processed foods and ready-to-eat fruits and vegetables because of its convenience since they do not need to process the product later.
