N2 - Considerable research has been done recently in the field of protein-based nanoparticles as a system for bioactive compounds delivery. These carriers have considerable stability during storage as well as in vivo. Different proteins have been used for this purpose which include water-soluble and insoluble molecules with diverse encapsulating capacities. The preparation methods are also diverse and include among others emulsification, desolvation, coacervation, nanoprecipitation, liquid–liquid dispersion, and electrohydrodinamic atomization. This review presents different contributions to the field of protein nanoparticles dealing with the applications of different methods to diverse proteins and bioactive compounds.
