STABLE, SPRAY-DRIED COMPOSITION IN A CARBOHYDRATE SUBSTRATE AND PROCESS FOR OBTAINING SAID COMPOSITION

摘要

The invention relates to a moisture and oxygen stable spray-dried composition comprising at least one active compound encapsulated in a carbohydrate matrix, which matrix is characterised by 40 to 80 wt. % high molecular weight film forming carbohydrate; 10 to 30 wt. % mono, di and trisaccharides; and 10 to 30 wt. % maltodextrin based on the total weight of the carbohydrate matrix. The active compound to be encapsulated in the carbohydrate matrix can be selected from the group consisting of flavourants, fragrances, pharmaceuticals and wash-active components.
