nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHA) is a main component of bone and dentin. The nanoHA was synthesized by a neutralization reaction of calcium hydroxide suspension and phosphoric acid solution. The sizes of the nanoHA were in the range of 5-80 nm. The composition and structure of the nanoHA was determined by XRD and FTIR as hydroxyapatite containing small amounts of carbonate. The morphology of the nanoHA was observed by TEM as plate shape. Saccharides including dextrin, lactose and glucose were mixed into the nanoHA suspension and dried by a spray dry method to produce a complex powder for oral administration. The particle sizes of the complex were in the range of 10-20 μm. The dispersibility of the complex in water was examined by a precipitation rate test and the order was as follows: glucose > dextrin > lactose complex.

Spray-dried chitosan/NaCl/maltodextrin microparticles have the potential to be used to enhance saltiness; however, its notable hygroscopicity results in handling and storage problems, thus limiting its application. In the present study, we attempted to introduce maltodextrin, microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), and waxy starch (WS) as excipients into the spray drying formulation of microparticles to reduce the cohesiveness and caking behavior and improve the yield simultaneously by ameliorating the moisture absorption tendency. The prepared microparticles showed a spherical appearance and had particle sizes ranging from 6.29 to 7.64 μm, while the sizes of the NaCl crystals embedded in the microparticles were 0.36 to 1.24 μm. The crystalline reflections of WS and MCC were retained in the microparticles after the spray-drying process. The handling properties were assessed to be acceptable. The formulation with only maltodextrin as the excipient showed a high moisture absorption rate of 2.83 g/100 g·h and a caking strength of 3.27 kg. The addition of MCC and WS significantly reduced the hygroscopic rate and caking strength. The spray-dried products provided better saltiness perception than native NaCl; as such, they may be promising for seasoning dry food products to achieve sodium intake reduction in the food industry.

Processing crickets into a versatile dry powder ingredient may facilitate their utilisation in a variety of food products. Three dried cricket ingredients – oven-roasted cricket meal; the same ingredient milled to a smaller particle size, called oven-roasted cricket powder; and spray-dried cricket powder – were prepared and evaluated for their physical, nutritional and sensory properties. Oven-roasted cricket powder had a smaller range of particle sizes and fewer large particles compared to spray-dried cricket powder. Consumer panellists rated oven-roasted cricket powder as less gritty than the other two ingredients. Prepared as a protein drink, oven-roasted cricket powder had the highest viscosity and an intermediate sedimentation rate. Differences between treatments existed in proximate analysis parameters and nutrients, but amounts were similar to previously reported values for cricket powders. Consumer panellists preferred the smaller particle-sized oven-roasted powder over larger particle-sized oven-roasted meal or the spray-dried powder ingredients, as indicated by all sensory acceptance attributes, preference ranking, and purchase likelihood.

Naturally colored cotton is a green textile material. To cultivate new colored cotton and improve its performance, we must first understand the types, composition, and formation mechanism of the pigments in colored cotton. This study aims to explore the composition and structure of cotton fiber pigments. Qualitative analyses of pigment extracts from brown cotton, green cotton, and white cotton fibers were carried out using ultraviolet spectroscopy, diagnostic agents, and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry. The main component of cotton fiber pigments was flavonoids, and specific types of flavonoids were found in the pigments in brown cotton, green cotton, and white cotton fibers. Research on the composition of cotton fiber pigments can increase our understanding of colored cotton fibers and lay a foundation for the cultivation, planting, and development of colored cotton fibers, as well the identification of naturally colored cotton from dyed cotton.
