RUSTARK INGREDIENTS IN MICROENCAPSULATION TECHNOLOGIES
While researching the properties and expansion of applications of starch products manufactured by Rustark LLC, the specialists of Rustark Lab have developed technological solutions for microencapsulated blends of flavoring, aromatic, and biologically active substances.
The research results show the feasibility of effective using special types of Rustark maltodextrins and modified starches in encapsulants formulations.
Having capacity for polymerization, water-soluble ingredients form a capsule structure that protects active substances, helps to keep their functional properties, and facilitates to their effective penetrating into food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
Choosing the specific combination of microcapsule components is determined by the application and release technology of active substance, as well as storage conditions and shelf life. The use of these matrices help to reach high precision in dosing and preserve the activity for highly labile ingredients.
The technology of producing encapsulants based on starch products includes several stages: preparation of water-soluble microcapsule shell components, preparation of an emulsion of insoluble microcapsule core components, homogenization of the mixture, and spray drying of the mixture. The technology provides controlled release of active components and their stabilization in aggressive environments during thermal processing or storage. Encapsulation of ingredients minimizes undesirable interactions between formulation components while preserving biological value.
The application of encapsulation is effective in creating innovative products with specified physicochemical, technological, and nutritional properties. Encapsulants are used in finished product and food formulations to impart the desired taste, aroma or functional properties.
Rustark Lab scientific and practical activities enable our clients to effectively apply Rustark starch products, expand the range of end products, improve quality and reduce costs. A qualified expert team carries out specialized analytical, physicochemical and technological research on various types of modified starches.
We offer scientific and technical support for implementing and optimizing Rustark modified starches, selection of optimal grades, and organization of experimental testing at Rustark Lab. Implementing this approach minimizes time and resource expenditures of Rustark partners on carrying out large-scale production tests.
