Based on of the adsorption of polyelectrolyte (PEC) multilayers and complexes obtained from both high-and low-charge polyelectrolytes in nanocapsules production,the purpose of this study was to obtain bioactive nanocapsules extracted from lyophilized acerola residue using chitosan (CT) and cashew apple (CAG) gum (anionic heteropolysaccharide) as complexes. The aqueous extract was obtained by turbólise. The nanocapsules were formed under moderate agitation and dripping in PEC (1% CT + 1% CAG). The extract contained the active soluble anionic active ingredient and showed values of 1113.64 mg/100 g ascorbic acid; 0.86% of total acidity;5.02 g/100 mg gallic acid total extracted polyphenols (PET) and 531.9 mM of Trolox / g pulp (ABTS) and biocompatible to the both PECs used in this work defined as a load ratio of 10 (n + / n-). The particles PEC size ranged from 532 to 675 nm showed a trimodal distribution and a zeta potential of 33 mV. The extract ratio P.A: PEC (0.5:1.0) showed a particle mean size values between 0.512 and 0.593 nm with a monodal distribution and a zeta potential of 19.6 mV . Increasing the concentration of the extract to a ratio of 1:1, there was an increase from 1050 to 1051nm showing a bimodal distribution and not be possible to measure by the equipment. In summary, the study proved the efficiency of both PECs in formation of nanocapsules containing great potential of bioactive, being the best ratio of 0.5:1.0, showed a better load distribution of a high zeta potential, proving the solution stability
