Abstract: Provided herein is a rice husk particles wherein at least 90%, by weight, of the total weight of the particles, has a diameter less than 25 ?m.

Abstract: Provided herein are emulsions and particles comprising high concentration of menthol. Also provided is a process for the preparation emulsions and dried particles comprising high concentration of menthol, Gum Arabic and a natural extract comprising saponins.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of shelf stable dry particles that include flavours or fragrances, in which an emulsion of the flavour or fragrance, an emulsifier of a natural extract containing saponins, water and a carbohydrate carrier system is spray-dried. Also provided are shelf stable dry particles and products containing them.

Abstract: Provided herein is a process for preparing a solid particle comprising: preparing an emulsion comprising: from 0.01 to 0.24%, by weight, of the final weight of the solid particle, of a saponin; from 5 to 55%, by weight, of the total weight of the emulsion, a water soluble biopolymer having a molecular weight below 100 KDa; from 5 to 60%, by weight, of the final weight of the solid particle, a flavor or fragrance comprising from about 50% to about 95% of limonene; from about 5% to about 50%, by weight, of the final weight of the solid particle an alcohol; and from about 15% up to about 80% of water; the percentages being defined by weight; 1. spray-drying the emulsion obtained in step 1) so as to obtain solid capsules; 2. the solid capsule in which the droplet size measured by Diffusion Light Scattering is characterized by a characteristic diameter D90 (90% of the population) equal or below 14 micrometers; 3.

Abstract: The present invention relates to spray dried compositions of one or more active ingredients dispersed in a carrier of gum Arabic in admixture with a non-ionic surfactant. The compositions are particularly useful for the encapsulation of menthol and can be used to prepare chewing gums and compressed tablets.

Abstract: The present invention relates to microcapsules obtained by a coacervation process. The microcapsules encapsulate a heat-treated animal fat and surprisingly increase the mouthfeel properties and juiciness of food product such as meat, dog-food and animal feeds.

Abstract: The invention relates to a complex coacervation process based on the use of type B gelatin as polycationic colloid, for the preparation of “Halal” certified flavor-containing microcapsules.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hot melt extrusion process for the preparation of an active ingredient, namely a flavor or fragrance, delivery system, wherein the quenching of the extruded product to form a glass is carried out with a cooling medium of a low temperature coolant such as liquid nitrogen.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing microcapsules by coacervation, wherein the cross-linking of a protein is carried out by a plant extract rich in substituted or unsubstituted phenolic compounds.

Abstract: The invention relates to a spray-dried composition comprising an active ingredient dispersed in a carrier comprising a combination of a wall-forming carbohydrate material with from 1 to 30% by weight of agar agar relative to the dried weight of the composition. The composition of the invention provides advantageous behavior in an aqueous environment wherein the mobility of the active agent is restricted in the gelled carrier, thus preventing the release of the agent unless shear of heat are applied. Another feature of the invention is a process for the preparation the spray-dried composition.

Abstract: Particulate flavor composition comprising a flavor oil fixed in a particulate low cariogenic matrix of hydrogenated starch hydrolysate and a maltodextrin having a dextrose equivalent value of less than 20.A process for the encapsulation of a flavor oil comprising forming a homogeneous mixture of the flavor oil with(a) from about 40 to about 85 percent by weight of a particulate polyol consisting of hydrogenated starch hydrolysate,(b) from about 10 to about 30 percent by weight of a maltodextrin having a dextrose equivalent of less than 20,(c) an emulsifier and water,and spray-drying the resultant mixture to form a particulate product of from about 0.15 to about 0.85 g/cc bulk free flow density.

Abstract: A non-bitter enzyme modified cheese flavoring composition made by effecting proteolysis in warmed hard cheese with high levels of a purified microbial coagulase enzyme. In the paste form, this composition has a high solids content and is spreadable at refrigerator temperature. In another embodiment, the composition is spray-dried as a granular product having instant cold water dispersibility.
