Özet
Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is an omega-3 fatty acid naturally occurring in plant oils. Omega-3 fatty acids have many beneficial effects. However, these fatty acids are sensitive to environmental factors such as heat, oxygen, metal ions, and humidity. Thus, these oils are microencapsulated by different methods. There are several methods for oil encapsulation, including spray drying, spray chilling, freeze-drying, fluid bed coating, coacervation, and extrusion. Among these techniques, spray drying is one of the most preferred and widely utilized in microencapsulation of plant oils rich in ALA. Different processing parameters affect the quality and stability of the microencapsulated oils. This chapter reviews the effects of processing parameters such as wall materials and their concentrations, oil loading, feeding temperature, air inlet and outlet temperatures, emulsification, atomization, and aspiration rate on the microencapsulation by spray drying of plant oils rich in ALA. © 2015 Elsevier Inc.
