Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo explore the best technique parameters on preparing ophiopogon japonicus saponin enteric microsphere by spray drying technique.
METHODThe best technique parameters were investigated by orthogonal experimental design and by the target, such as surface appearances, encapsulated efficiency, etc.
RESULTThe best technique parameters included the inlet temperature (90 degrees C ), the feeding speed (10 mL x min(- 1)), and the rotate speed of atomizer (50 r x min(-1)).
CONCLUSIONOphiopogon japonicus saponin enteric microsphere accorded with the expecting demand. The main influencing factor was inlet temperature . It is suitable to industrialize in preparing Traditional Chinese Medicine microsphere.
