Abstract

The significance of probiotic products in maintaining intestinal health is continuously being unveiled.However, the physical damage during processing, storage, and transportation, as well as the stresses from gastric acid and bile salts after ingestion, can result in the loss of probiotic viability.To address these issues, the encapsulation of probiotics using microencapsulation technology has emerged as a crucial area of research.Bibliometric tools, including CiteSpace 6.1.R6, VOSviewer 1.6.19, and Bibliometrix were utilized to analyze a total of 1 438 English and Chinese literature sources in this study.The results indicate that research on probiotic microencapsulation is experiencing rapid development, with China leading in the number of publications, showcasing significant potential for future advancements.Encapsulation materials have diversified beyond chitosan and alginate, and spray drying technology has emerged as the most studied method, surpassing freeze-drying.Moreover, the application of diverse bioactive materials, such as polyphenols and artificial enzymes, is becoming increasingly prevalent, enabling high-freedom nano-encapsulation.Additionally, co-encapsulation of probiotics and prebiotics is anticipated to be a prominent research focus.By integrating keyword evolution knowledge mapping, this study offers insights into future research hotspots in the field, thereby guiding researchers in their investigations.
