Abstract

The microencapsulating technology parameters for fish oil encapsulation was studied.β-Cyclodextrin was selected as wall material to microencapsulate fish oil extracted by dilute alkali method.The results showed that the optimum processing parameters were: the ratio of fish oil toβ-cyclodextrint 1∶ 7,stirring time 2h,mixing temperature 45℃ and 0.15g of emulsifiers Tween 80.The embedding rate,and efficiency of the fish oil microcapsule were 90.75% and 89.34%,respectively.A typical columnar structure of microcapsule was observed by scanning electron microscope.
