The present invention is related to the production of capsules or particles of
micro and nanometric size, for introduction into food, using stable electrified
coaxial jets of two immiscible liquids with diameters in the micro and nanometric
range. An aerosol of charged structured droplets forms when the jets dissociate
by capillary instabilities. The structured droplets, which are mano-dispersed in
size, contain a first liquid (generally the material desired to be added) that
is surrounded by a second liquid. Generally the second liquid provides a barrier
or protective coating which allows the addition of the first liquid to a food product
without adversely affecting the organoleptic or other properties of the food product.
