Coacervate Microcapsules of <i>Citrus aurantifolia Essential Oil</i> (LOs): Optimization and Their Antibacterial Activity Study

Spherical microcapsules of lime oil (LOs), coated by biodegradable polymers, were already obtained via a coacervation method. The microcapsules exhibited medium antibacterial activity, mostly against common typical bacteria. Thus, it is potentially applied in the cosmetotextile as an antibacterial agent.
