摘要: The goal of this work was to select the best combination encapsulants for microencapsulation oregano essential oil by spray dryer with addition Arabic gum (AG), modified starch (MS) and maltodextrin (MA). simplex-centroid method used obtain an optimal objective function three variables. Analytical methods carvacrol quantification, water activity, moisture content, wettability, solubility, encapsulation efficiency (ME) retention (RT) were evaluate encapsulants. use AG as a single wall material increased ME up 93%. Carvacrol is major phenolic compound existent in oil. exhibits maximum concentration 57.8% microparticle 62.5% 37.5% MA. A greater RT (77.39%) obtained when 74.5% AG; MS 12.7% MA applied, (93%) improved 100% gum.
