INTRODUCTION (Background)
Prone to oxidation
Low orally absorbance
Cytotoxic in higher total dosages (though relatively
high local concentrations are required for an effect)
Low water solubility
Encapsulation is one way to :
improve bioavailability and stability
Microencapsulation (ME) is a technique in which a membrane encloses small particles of
solid, liquid or gas, to protect the core material from adverse environmental conditions
INTRODUCTION (Background)
Spray drying is a particular case of evaporation, in which small liquid droplets are rapidly (5-10 seconds) dried by a flow of hot air.
A liquid formulation containing a coating agent and the active compound in a solvent is atomized into droplets via an atomizer.
A heated process gas (air or N2) is brought into contact with the atomized feed using a gas disperser, leading to evaporation of the solvent.
As the liquid rapidly evaporates from the droplet, a particle forms and falls to the bottom of the chamber. The powder is recovered from the exhaust gases using a cyclone or a bag filter.
The rate of drying must be such that from the time the particle leaves the atomizer to the time it impinges upon the walls of the chamber, the particle is dry.
MATERIALS AND METHODS (Spray Drying)
ADVANTAGES
Simple technique, with high efficiency.
Low production costs (30-50 times cheaper than freeze-drying).
Production of high quality and stable particles.
Continuous process.
Increase of solubility of hydrophobic compound.
Used in food industry to ensure a microbiological stability of products.
DISADVANTAGES
Limited number of shell materials availability.
High air temperature can degrade heat-sensitive samples.

Conclusions
• An increase from IT130 to IT160 leads to lower moisture content and bulk density, causes a higher degradation of the spherical structure of the particles and resulted to lower TP and ARP.
• Increasing MD concentration causes lower bulk density and higher size of the powders.
• The highest microencapsulation yield was obtained at IT130, MD10 and feed flow equal to 10 mL/min. At these conditions notable TP content (39.5±4.9 mgCAE/gDP) and ARP (13.3±1.7 mgDPPH˙/mLextract) were obtained, along with a high ME (75.9±3.3 %), and small particle sizes.
The product obtained shows good stability at storage conditions and remarkable antioxidant properties, and can be considered a new potential source for integration in novel food or pharmaceutical products.
