Effect of porous structure and spreading pressure on the storage stability of red onion microcapsules produced by spray freezing into liquid cryogenic and spray drying L.A. Pascual-Pineda, M.P. Rascón, M.X. Quintanilla-Carvajal, M. Castillo-Morales, U.R. Marín, E. Flores-Andrade Abstract Red onion microcapsules were produced by spray freezing into liquid cryogenic (SFLC) and spray drying (SD) and… Continue reading Effect of porous structure and spreading pressure on the storage stability of red onion microcapsules produced by spray freezing into liquid cryogenic and spray drying

Freeze Granulation for the Processing of Silicon Nitride Ceramics Ola Lyckfeldt, Kent Rundgren, M. Sjöstedt Abstract Freeze granulation (LS-2, PowderPro HB, Sweden) has been demonstrated as a favourable alternative to conventional granulation methods (spray drying, sieve granulation etc) in the production of granules for the pressing of high-performance ceramic powders. Freeze granulation/freeze drying prevents the… Continue reading Freeze Granulation for the Processing of Silicon Nitride Ceramics

Selective Oxidation of HMF via Catalytic and Photocatalytic Processes Using Metal-Supported Catalysts Lolli A, Maslova V, Bonincontro D, Basile F, Ortelli S, Albonetti S Abstract In this study, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) oxidation was carried out via both the catalytic and the photocatalytic approach. Special attention was devoted to the preparation of the TiO₂-based catalysts, since this… Continue reading Selective Oxidation of HMF via Catalytic and Photocatalytic Processes Using Metal-Supported Catalysts

Modern frontiers and applications of spray-freeze-drying in design of food and biological supplements Sayantani Dutta, J. A. Moses, C. Anandharamakrishnan Abstract Spray‐freeze‐drying (SFD) is a unique tandem technique combining spray drying (SD) and freeze drying (FD), and exploiting the advantages of both. SFD is particularly suitable for volatiles, biologicals, and food supplements that are sensitive… Continue reading Modern frontiers and applications of spray-freeze-drying in design of food and biological supplements

Passive inhalation of dry powder influenza vaccine formulations completely protects chickens against H5N1 lethal viral challenge. Tomar J, Biel C, de Haan CAM, Rottier PJM, Petrovsky N, Frijlink HW, Huckriede A, Hinrichs WLJ, Peeters B Abstract Bird to human transmission of high pathogenicity avian influenza virus (HPAIV) poses a significant risk of triggering a flu… Continue reading Passive inhalation of dry powder influenza vaccine formulations completely protects chickens against H5N1 lethal viral challenge.
