  • Physico-chemical modification of kafirin microstructures for application as biomaterials 
    Anyango, Joseph Ochieng (University of Pretoria, 2012)
    Microparticles produced from kafirin, the sorghum grain prolamin protein, by molecular selfassembly using coacervation with acetic acid solvent are vacuolated. They have shown considerable potential for encapsulation of ...
