TY - JOUR JF - ROSELLA FLOWER (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) EXTRACT DRYING THROUGH MICROENCAPSULATION OF SPRAY DRYING METHOD WITH MALTODEXTRIN A1 - Nining, Nining A1 - Sundani Noerono Suwandi, Sundani A1 - Saleh Wikarsa, Saleh PB - Farmasains N2 - Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) have a lot of pharmacological activities which have been widely reported both in vitro and in vivo and has been clinically tested. The usage of the extract in powder form would be more practical and scalable as a raw material and have advantages to facilitate its storage, distribution, standardization of active substances and can improve its stability. The objective of this research is to study the effect of maltodextrin addition for microcapsules formation related to roselle flower calyx extract powder characterized by using spray drying method. Research was carried out by made feed solution in ratio of 1: 1 (R1); 1: 2 (R2); and 1: 4 (R3) with a total solids content of 10%. Then, microencapsulated by spraydrying method with 110-115C inlet and 99-104C outlet temperature, and flow rate of 200 mL/hour. Microcapsules had characteristic morphological structures such as spheric form. The average particle size decreased with the addition of maltodextrin. The addition of maltodextrin can reduce the hygroscopicity of extracts and increase solubility in water and moisture content. Spray drying process in powder R2 give the encapsulation efficiency of 97.73% and product recovery of 74.05%. All powder microcapsules have residual solvent <1%.
