Lycopene is a very unstable fat-soluble pigment and is easily oxidized or isomerized during processing and storage. In recent years, microencapsulation has been used to improve the instability of lycopene. The microencapsulated lycopene can reduce the contact with the outside world, avoiding the adverse effects of the external environment, increasing the storage stability of lycopene, and improve its bioavailability in the intestine. The preparation, storage stability and bioavailability of lycopene microcapsules are reviewed in this paper, in order to provide a reference for the application of lycopene microcapsule technology.
