Abstract: A process for the production of fat-encapsulated follistatin. The process includes steps of a) metering fat having a melting point of at least 40° C. into an extruder, b) heating the fat in the extruder during rotation of the at least one screw, c) metering the follistatin into the extruder barrel to produce a flowable mixture, d) cooling the flowable mixture in a downstream adjacent section of the extruder barrel, e) subsequently discharging the mixture through an extruder die, and f) comminuting the mixture after it discharges from the extruder die.

Abstract: A process for producing a fat-encapsulated ingredient. A fat is metered into an extruder, the fat having a melting point of at least 50° C. The fat is heated in in the extruder during rotation of at least one screw. At least one ingredient is metered into a barrel of the extruder to produce a flowable mixture. The flowable mixture is cooled in a a downstream adjacent section of the extruder barrel. The mixture is subsequently discharged through an extruder die. After discharge, the mixture is comminuted.
