Abstract
The aim of the present study is the description of the special features that the well known Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLN) and Nanostructured Lipid Nanoparticles (NLC) have for the oral delivery of food nutrients and active ingredients. Here, the main lipid materials used for the production of these carriers, as well as their production methods are given. Furthermore, the morphological differences between SLN and NLC are pointed out and the advantages of these carriers for food industry are referred. The question of how to formulate oral forms based on lipid nanoparticles is also discussed and several useful examples are given.
