The increase in global life expectancy has aroused the interest of consumers for healthy food, driving the development of functional foods containing probiotics, of which stand out genera, Lactobacillus spp, Bifidobacterium spp and Enterococcus spp, known to carry beneficial effects in the colon. Various microencapsulation techniques and coating materials have been explored, the external ionic gelation has proved to be viable preservation of the probiotics cultures. Natural polymers have been studied, such as pectin, raw material can be obtained from the citrus industry waste extraction. Pectins are classified according to their degree of methoxylation, which influences its hydration capacity and gel formation. As a dietary fiber, pectin acts as a substrate for the microflora of the colon, stimulating it. For these characteristics, the use of pectin as a coating material microparticles probiotic is presented as an alternative for carrying out works aimed to study the production, characterization, and Microparticles feasibility of in vitro cultures. This review aims to present microencapsulation of probiotics through external ionic gelation method, as well as address the microcapsules coating materials, with emphasis on the use of pectin.

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication
The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
