20090258132 | PREPARING DRIED PARTICLES USING A SUPERCRITICAL MEDIUM - The invention relates to a method for preparing particles from an aqueous liquid composition which further contains a composition to form the particles from, wherein the composition is contacted with a supercritical medium, so as to form the particles. The invention further relates to a method for drying aqueous composition, comprising the removal of water from the composition by contacting the composition with a supercritical medium, so as to form a dried product. | 10-15-2009 |
20100074986 | PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF POWDERED OILS - The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of powdered oils and more particularly to oil encapsulated in a protein containing matrix. In addition, the present invention relates to the powdered oils obtainable by such a process, and the use of these products in the preparation of food compositions, and preferably animal food compositions, such as ruminant food compositions. | 03-25-2010 |
20100086664 | CAPSULES FROM SEPARATED POLYMER SOLUTIONS - The invention relates to a method of preparing a double emulsion comprising a) preparing an emulsion comprising at least two liquid phases by bringing a first polymer (A) and a second polymer (B) into contact with each other in a solvent, wherein the concentrations of the polymers are chosen such that, upon bringing them into contact, a phase separation occurs, thereby forming drops of a first liquid phase in a second liquid phase, wherein, in the first phase, the weight concentration of the polymer A (C | 04-08-2010 |
20110065791 | SYSTEM FOR AROMA RELEASE - The invention concerns a process for preparing particles, which particles contain one or more spaces in which a gas phase is present which comprises at least one active ingredient, in particular at least one aroma, flavor or precursor for an aroma or flavor, and which space or spaces are at least substantially surrounded by an enveloping phase which at ambient temperature is at least substantially solid and at least substantially impermeable to the active ingredient, comprising allowing the gaseous active ingredient to migrate from or through the enveloping phase into the space or spaces at a temperature at which the enveloping phase is permeable to the gaseous active ingredient; and then cooling the particles to a temperature at which the enveloping phase of the particles is at least substantially impermeable to the active ingredient in the particles. | 03-17-2011 |
20110171349 | MICROENCAPSULATE AND PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE THEREOF - The present invention relates to a microencapsulate comprising microcapsules having a diameter of 0.1 μm to 25 μm, said microcapsules comprising: —a core particle having a diameter of 90 nm to 23 μm and containing at least 3% of the active component by weight of said core particle; and—a coating that fully envelops the core particle and containing at least 20 wt. % of a hydrophobic polymer selected from cellulosic ethers, cellulosic esters, zein, shellac, gluten, polylactide, hydrophobic starch derivatives, polyvinyl acetate polymers, polymers or copolymers derived from an acrylic acid ester and/or a methacrylic acid ester and combinations thereof; wherein the core particle contains a release trigger component and/or the coating contains a release trigger component, said release trigger component being selected from: —a water-swellable polymer having a water-uptake capacity at 37° C. and pH 7.0 of less than 20 wt. % and a water-uptake capacity at 37° C. and pH 2.0 of at least 50 wt. %; an—an edible salt having a water solubility at 37° C. and a pH of 7.0 of less than 1 mg/ml and a water solubility at 37° C. and a pH of 2.0 of at least 5 mg/ml; The microencapsulate of the present invention does not release the encapsulated active component when incorporated in water-containing foodstuffs, beverages, nutritional compositions or pharmaceutical compositions. Following ingestion, however, the active component is released rapidly. | 07-14-2011 |
20110189298 | DOUBLE EMULSION AND METHOD TO PRODUCE SUCH - The invention is directed to a method to produce a water-in-oil-in-water (w/o/w) emulsion, comprising: a. preparing a water-in-oil (w/o) emulsion; b. atomizing said w/o emulsion in the presence of a carrier material comprising at least a water soluble matrix material and at least one emulsifier, to form agglomerates; c. dispersing said agglomerates in an aqueous liquid, such as water or an aqueous solution. Also provided is a new instant powder (obtained after step b) that can be used to prepare the w/o/w emulsion. The emulsion of the invention is advantageously suited for the encapsulation of active components. | 08-04-2011 |
20120128831 | METHOD FOR ENCAPSULATION OF AN EDIBLE OIL, COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING EDIBLE OIL AND THE USE THEREOF - The present invention relates to a method for encapsulation of an edible oil using whey protein and a reducing sugar. The edible oil comprises long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. Also compositions comprising an edible oil obtainable by the method of the invention are provided. The compositions of the invention have good stability to oxidation, good taste and/or odour, and limited diffusion from and into the continuous phase when applied in liquids. The compositions of the invention are particularly suitable for food and pharma applications. | 05-24-2012 |
20140170266 | COMPOSITION WITH IMPROVED DIGESTIBILITY OF PROTEINS - The present invention relates to method to produce a dairy based food composition comprising protein comprising the steps (a) Treating the milk such that at least 98% of the pathogens is removed, (b) Treating the milk with a microfilter of a poresize of 0.01-2 micron such that at least a casein rich fraction and a serum protein rich fraction is obtained, wherein the milk is subjected to a heating treatment before or after the microfiltration and wherein during the production the milk and products obtained from the milk are not subjected to a heat treatment at a temperature above 90° C., and wherein the serum protein rich fraction and/or the casein rich fraction is processed into a food product. The invention also is directed to products made by the process. | 06-19-2014 |
