Bioencapsulation revisited.
Methods to encapsulate biological materials are now widely used. Sometimes bioencapsulation is considered as a universal technique conducting to identical results independently on the biological material used. For instance, a similar behavior is frequently waited for different strains of immobilized microorganisms without taking into account substantial differences in its physiological and morphological characteristics. Often interactions with the matrix support are also neglected. Thus, some concepts developed throughout all these years working in bioencapsulation merits to be revisited.
