MICROCAPSULE, PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION THEREOF, AND FOOD OR BEVERAGE CONTAINING MICROCAPSULE

摘要

The method of producing microcapsules 100 comprises a primary dispersion step in which a water-soluble substance and a fat-soluble substance are mixed to obtain a primary dispersion liquid having primary dispersion particles 10 composed of the water-soluble substance dispersed in the fat-soluble substance, a secondary dispersion step in which the primary dispersion liquid and a sodium alginate aqueous solution are mixed to obtain a secondary dispersion liquid having secondary dispersion particles 20 composed of the primary dispersion liquid dispersed in the sodium alginate aqueous solution, and a spraying step in which the secondary dispersion liquid is sprayed for contact with a calcium ion-containing solution 9 to form a calcium alginate gel 30 and to obtain microcapsules 100 having the secondary dispersion particles 20 dispersed in the calcium alginate gel 30.
