Spray Drying of Theae sinensis (green tea extract)
Spray drying is a commonly used technique for producing dry powders from liquid extracts. Theae sinensis, also known as green tea extract, has been widely studied for its potential health benefits. Spray drying of Theae sinensis extract can improve its stability, solubility, and bioavailability. The process involves atomizing the extract into fine droplets, which are then dried rapidly by hot air to form powder particles. The properties of the powder depend on the spray drying conditions, such as the inlet and outlet air temperatures, atomization pressure, and feed concentration.
Studies have shown that spray drying of green tea extract can enhance its antioxidant activity, polyphenol content, and sensory properties. The resulting powder can be used in various applications such as functional foods, dietary supplements, and pharmaceuticals. Overall, spray drying of Theae sinensis extract is a promising method for producing a stable and bioavailable powder form of this popular natural product.
