MICROCAPSULES, METHOD OF PRODUCING THE MICROCAPSULES AND FOOD AND DRINK CONTAINING THE MICROCAPSULES

摘要

A method of producing microcapsules that comprises an emulsification step in which a fat-soluble substance and a sodium alginate aqueous solution are mixed to obtain an emulsified liquid in which there are dispersed emulsified particles composed of the fat-soluble substance and having a mean particle size of not greater than 800 nm, and a spraying step in which the emulsified liquid is sprayed into a calcium ion-containing solution to obtain microcapsules in which the emulsified particles are encapsulated.
