The formation, characterization, photo-protective properties and release profiles of folic acid-loaded nanolaminated films were investigated by UV–visible spectroscopy, FTIR, Raman and SEM microscopy. Food-grade alginate/chitosan nanolaminates were obtained by the layer-by-layer technique and folic acid (FA) was incorporated by post-diffusion. The FA concentration of loading solutions and immersion time significantly affected the FA content in nanolaminates. The maximum FA loading was reached using FA solutions at 10 mg/mL for 30 min (54.4 μg/cm2), or 12.5 mg/mL for 120 min (≈70 μg/cm2). Nanolaminates containing FA were more stable under ultraviolet light exposure than non-encapsulated FA. The rate and concentration of FA released from nanolaminates were greater at buffer pH 7 than at pH 3, which might play a key role in the delivery and bioavailability of nutraceuticals. These results provide important information for the design of nanolaminates containing hydrophilic active compounds for food applications.
