Mathematical models of controlled drug release applied to an encapsulation system of food active compounds

The release of an encapsulated food active compound (model case: astaxanthin encapsulated in alginate matrix) was described by simple mathematical models from the pharmaceutical field. The models considered dissolution, diffusion, erosion, or swelling. The errors ranged from 17.6% to 49.2%. The acti...
