Abstract:The objective of this work was to develop a product capable of protecting Syzygium aromaticum (clove) essential oil against high volatility. Clove oil (CEO) was encapsulated in alginate by ionic gelation with subsequent freeze-drying. Characterization was carried out by GC/MS, TGA/DSC and antioxidant (DPPH), and total phenol (Folin-Ciocalteau) analysis. Eugenol was the majority (81.5%) and the encapsulation efficiency varied between 14.0%+0.96 (F1: 1.0% alginate) and 9.8%+0.35 (F2: 2.0% alginate) in wet encaps… Show more
