Microencapsulation of curcumin in jelly fig pectin was performed by the vacuum spray drying (VSD) technique. The VSD was advanced with a low inlet temperature of 80–90 °C and low pressure of 0.01 mPa. By the in situ cross-linking with multivalent calcium ions, jelly fig pectin produced stable curcumin encapsulated microparticles. The physiochemical characteristics of microparticles were thoroughly investigated. The results revealed that 0.75 w/w% of jelly fig pectin and inlet temperature of 90 °C could be feasible for obtaining curcumin microparticles. The VSD technique showed the best encapsulation efficiency and yield and loading efficiency was up to 91.56 ± 0.80%, 70.02 ± 1.96%, and 5.45 ± 0.14%, respectively. The curcumin was readily released into simulated gastrointestinal fluid with 95.34 ± 0.78% cumulative release in 24 h. The antioxidant activity was stable after being stored for six months and stored as a solution for seven days at room temperature before analysis. Hence, the VSD technique could be applicable for the microencapsulation of bioactive compounds such as curcumin to protect and use in the food/pharmaceutical industry.

Adverse Environmental Conditions

Carotenoids are a class of natural pigments found mainly in fruits and vegetables. Among them,β-carotene is regarded the most potent precursor of vitamin A. However, it is susceptible to oxidation upon exposure to oxygen, light, and heat, which can result in loss of colour, antioxidant activity, and vitamin activity. Thus, the objective of this work was to study the microencapsulation process ofβ-carotene by spray drying, using arabic gum as wall material, to protect it against adverse environmental conditions. This was carried out using the response surface methodology coupled to a central composite rotatable design, evaluating simultaneously the effect of drying air inlet temperature (110-200°C) and the wall material concentration (5-35%) on the drying yield, encapsulation efficiency, loading capacity, and antioxidant activity. In addition, morphology and particles size distribution were evaluated. Scanning electron microscopy images have shown that the particles were microcapsules with a smooth surface when produced at the higher drying temperatures tested, most of them having a diameter lower than 10μm. The conditions that enabled obtaining simultaneously arabic gum microparticles with higherβ-carotene content, higher encapsulation efficiency, and higher drying yield were a wall material concentration of 11.9% and a drying inlet temperature of 173°C. The systematic approach used for the study ofβ-carotene microencapsulation process by spray drying using arabic gum may be easily applied for other core and wall materials.

Background: S. chinensis extract contains bioactive compounds, which exhibit high antioxidant activities. However, for commercial uses, it is necessary to encapsulate the extract to protect it from degradation. Objective: This study aimed to optimise spray-drying conditions and then compare with freeze-drying to identify the most suitable conditions for encapsulation of Salacia chinensis L. root extract. Method: Three factors of spray-drying encapsulation, including maltodextrin concentration, inlet temperature and feed rate, have been tested for the impacts on the physical and phytochemical properties of S. chinensis root extract. Based on the optimal conditions, the spray-drying was then compared with freeze-drying. Results: The results showed that maltodextrin concentration, inlet temperature and feed rate had significant impacts on recovery yield, phenolics, mangiferin and antioxidant activity of the spray-dried extract. The optimal spray-drying encapsulation conditions were maltodextrin concentration of 20 %, inlet temperature of 130ºC and feed rate of 9 mL/min. Under these optimal conditions, the encapsulated extract had comparable solubility, total phenolics, mangiferin, and antioxidant activity, lower bulk density, moisture content, and water activity as compared to encapsulated extract made using the freeze-drying technique. These optimal spray-drying conditions are recommended to encapsulate the extract of S. chinensis root. Conclusion: Spray-drying was found to be more effective for encapsulation of S. chinensis root extract than freeze-drying. Therefore, spray-drying is recommended for further applications.

Copper(II) sulfate-loaded chitosan microparticles were herein prepared using ionic cross-linking with sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) followed by spray drying. The microencapsulation process was optimal using an inlet temperature of 180 °C, a liquid flow-rate of 290 mL/h, an aspiration rate of 90%, and an atomizing gas flow-rate of 667 nL/h. Chitosan particles containing copper(II) sulfate of approximately 4 µm with a shrunken-type morphology were efficiently attained and, thereafter, fixated on a paper substrate either via cross-linking with STPP or using a chitosan hydrogel. The latter method led to the most promising system since it was performed at milder conditions and the original paper quality was preserved. The developed cellulose substrates were reduced and then exposed to different humidity conditions and characterized using colorimetric measurements in order to ascertain their potential as irreversible indicators for moisture detection. The results showed that the papers coated with the copper(II) sulfate-containing chitosan microparticles were successfully able to detect ambient moisture shown by the color changes of the coatings from dark brown to blue, which can be easily seen with the naked eye. Furthermore, the chitosan microparticles yielded no cytotoxicity in an in vitro cell culture experiment. Therefore, the cellulose substrates herein developed hold great promise in paper packaging as on-package colorimetric indicators for monitoring moisture in real time.

Phenolic compounds obtained from blueberries have gained great attention due to their more effective bioactive roles in human health than those of whole berries. However, they are sensitive to environmental conditions and are therefore susceptible to degradation affecting their effectiveness. The microencapsulation of these compounds by spray drying provides a solution to these problems. This work aimed to study the effect of spray drying on the microencapsulation of the blueberry phenolic compounds to optimize the production of a powder rich in stable polyphenols. The phenolic extract from blueberries was spray dried under different conditions of inlet air temperatures (140 and 160 °C) and encapsulating agent concentrations (20 and 30% w/v), using maltodextrin (14.7 dextrose equivalent). The drying yield, moisture content, water-solubility, total and surface phenolic content, and encapsulation efficiency of total phenolic were investigated. The results obtained showed that the different conditions evaluated influenced the drying yield, moisture content, surface phenolic content, and encapsulation efficiency of phenolic compounds. In this sense, the powders with the best characteristics were obtained with 30% w/v of maltodextrin at 160 °C inlet temperature. These powders, rich in blueberry polyphenols stabilized by microencapsulation, are easier to handle for application, so they could be used as functional food ingredients.

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of finger millet milk complex (almond gum with maltodextrin) to encapsulate the isolated Lactobacillus strains. The wall materials were optimized based on its encapsulation efficiency, antioxidant activity, total phenol content and encapsulation yield. The strains were spray-dried at the optimized condition: 120 °C inlet temperature, maltodextrin 30% and almond gum 1.5%. Survival count of microencapsulated Lactobacillus plantarum RS09 and RS23 strains were 7.91 and 7.83 CFU/g respectively. Viability of microencapsulated strains and free cells under low pH, bile salt, simulated gastric juice and intestinal juice were assessed. Strain RS09 exhibited the highest viable count. Addition of almond gum and finger millet milk increased the phenolic content and offered a protective effect to the strains during spray drying. Results also showed that the powders were amorphous with partial irregularities and a smooth surface with less dents. Hence, they could be used as potential encapsulating agents during spray drying.
