To prevent chemical and physical interactions and maintain the biological, functional, and physicochemical qualities of core materials, microencapsulation is the process of creating a functional barrier between the core and wall material. Different techniques, such as emulsification, spray-drying, extrusion, freeze-drying, coacervation, in situ polymerization, melt-extrusion, supercritical fluid technology, and fluidized-bed coating, have been used to conduct and commercialize the microencapsulation of vitamins, elements, essential oils, and probiotics. For the proper microencapsulation...

Seit der Antike sind Gewürze und Kräuter nicht nur ausgezeichnete Quellen für Aromen und Lebensmittelfarben, sondern auch ausgezeichnete Quellen für Medizin, Kochen, Konservierung und als Parfüm.

Researchers are looking for healthy substitutes since consumers are becoming more aware of the harmful health impacts of trans-fats and saturated fats. Oleogelation is a method for structuring liquid oil that has attracted a lot of attention. Highly unsaturated oils can be structured by various gelation methods by various structuring agents during the production of oleogels (e.g., polymeric or low molecular weight oleogelators). Oleogels have been introduced into a variety of products (meat, spread, and confectionary) as an alternative to conventional solid fats due to their potential to...
