The Journal of Microencapsulation is a well-established, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the publication of original research findings related to the preparation, properties and uses of individually encapsulated novel small particles, as well as significant improvements to tried-and-tested techniques relevant to micro and nano particles and their use in a wide variety of industrial, engineering, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and research applications. Its scope extends beyond conventional microcapsules to all other small particulate systems such as self assembling structures that involve preparative manipulation. The journal covers: Chemistry of encapsulation materials; Physics of release through the capsule wall and/or desorption from carrier; Techniques of preparation, content and storage; Many uses to which microcapsules are put. Nanotechnology is now moving into medicine as nanomedicine; an emerging speciality with great potential in the development of unique opportunities for more refined targeting and for new therapeutic approaches to diagnose and treat life threatening diseases. Therefore, coverage also includes nanotechnological advances in the design and synthesis of these structures and their potential applications. Furthermore, there is an extensive information and reference section found in every issue of the journal comprising patent briefings. This publication is aimed at a broad, interdisciplinary audience of academic and industrial researchers actively engaged in basic and applied laboratory practice, related to engineering micro- and nano-structured particles, including pharmaceutical science, medicine, photographic and copying processes, food technology, agrochemicals, adhesives and all those interested in small particle science and technology.
