Electrospinning is an electro-hydrodynamic process, when a polymer solution can be spun by the use of high potential electric field to obtain nanofibers. Electrospinning techniques are a gainful and flexible method to apply electrostatic force to form fibers in the 100nm range. Electrospinning instrument have mainly three components in which a supply of high voltage, a spinneret and target collector plate. Electrospun fibers have a lot of structural and functional advantages. So, this technique have so many applications and used in food coating, drug targeting, filters, defensive cloths, etc. This review provides a basic idea about the electrospinning process, principle mechanism, and application in food and other industries. | A review on electrospinning technique and its application in the field of nanoencapsulation of bioactive compounds
