Abstract/Summary

Present short paper is written so that a newcomer to the field can rapidly come up to speed on the topic and grasp the key points pertaining to microemulsion, as a nutraceutical nano-carrier, and its applications in the field of extraction, solubilisation, delivery, controlled release systems and so on. Though microemulsion system has various applications in different fields, here its food and nutritional applications are highlighted.
