FIELD : nanotechnology.SUBSTANCE : invention relates to nanotechnology, medicine and food industry. Method of obtaining dry dandelion extract nanocapsules is characterized by that dry dandelion extract is added to a suspension of kappa-carrageenan in toluene in presence of 0.01 g of glycerol ester with one or two molecules of edible fatty acids and one or two molecules of citric acid as surface-active substances while stirring at 700 rpm, then cyclohexane is added, obtained suspension of nanocapsules is filtered and dried at room temperature, wherein weight ratio of core : shell is 1 : 1, 1 : 2 or 1 : 3.EFFECT : method is proposed for preparing nanocapsules of dry dandelion extract.1 cl, 3 ex
