  • the invention relates to a method for preparing particles, to particles obtainable by a method according to the invention, to a food product comprising said particles, and to the use of said particles.
  • Particles have been defined and classified in various different ways depending on their specific structure, size, or composition.
  • particles are broadly defined as micro- or nanoscale particles which are typically composed of at least one solid, semi-solid or liquid material.
  • the weight-average diameter of such particles range from approximately 10 nm to approximately 1000 ⁇ , as may be determined by microscopy (light microscopy, or electron microscopy, depending on the size, as will be understood by the skilled person). More in particles, the term is used herein for particles having an average particle diameter between about 0.5 ⁇ and 100 ⁇ .
  • Particles may have a homogeneous structure or a heterogenous structure.
  • Homogenous particles in general consist of a material in a single phase (state of matter), e.g. one liquid phase or a material in a single solid state of matter Particles with a heterogeneous structure wherein two or more states of matter (phases) are distinguishable may be referred to as hierarchical particles.
  • Hierarchical particles in particular include particles comprising an inner core and an outer layer (a coating or shell or the like), such as nano- and microcapsules. They further include particles formed by the colloidal association of small molecules, especially of amphiphilic molecules, or other complex structures, such as liposomes, lipoplexes, lipid complexes, and lipospheres.
  • Particles are used in many fields. For instance, particles comprising an active substance, such as a medicine or a nutrient, are used in pharmaceutical respectively food applications.
  • an active substance such as a medicine or a nutrient
  • Particles with a hierarchical structure have various uses.
  • particles of an active substance such as a medicinal product or a nutrient
  • a protective layer as by means of encapsulation
  • a protective layer surrounding a pharmaceutically active ingredient or a food ingredient may also serve to alter a release pattern of said ingredient, after administration to an individual.
  • enteric coatings are known to provide sustained release preparations that delay release of an active substance until the orally administered preparation has passed the stomach.
  • the core may also comprise an active substance or be an inert phase (e.g. water).
  • an active substance e.g. water
  • Fat particles may also act as a structuring agent, e.g. in a cream or foam.
  • a similar effect as with full-fat particles may be achieved, whilst the fat content of the product is reduced.
  • a common technique for preparing particles is spray-drying is a conventional technique.
  • spray-drying typically, wet emulsions or dispersions are sprayed under pressure in a spray tower and then contacted with hot air.
  • spray- drying can cause problems as a result of a high thermal load of the product, which can lead to quality loss, in particular if the product contains a component which is heat- sensitive. Also, problems can occur with the controllability of the product properties such as particle size distribution, form and/or solubility; there is the risk of dust explosions. Further, the high energy consumption is a problem. In addition it is generally difficult to produce core-shell particles, especially small (10 micron or smaller) particles. Moreover particularly a need exist for particles with a hydrophobic (e.g. fat) shell in water. Producing these by spray-drying, e.g. in air, would imply that a subsequent dispersion step in water is needed which is impractical and may again destroy the particles.
  • a hydrophobic e.g. fat
  • Colloidosome particles can be prepared with the aid of an emulsion of the water-in-oil type or the oil-in-water type, see e.g. WO 02/47665.
  • a hydrophobic continuous phase such as toluene
  • the examples all use a synthetic polymer, such as polystyrene or polymethyl methacrylate. After allowing aggregation of the particles, if desired, the hydrophobic continuous phase may be replaced by water after the colloidosomes have been formed.
  • the colloidosomes need to be prevented from breaking as a result of the great forces exerted on the colloidosomes, for instance as a result of the surface tension.
  • the colloidosomes are washed first with octanol and then added to an aqueous solution of a surface -active substance.
  • the particles are usually strongly bonded to one another, for instance by sintering.
  • Known preparation techniques generally yield products wherein a substantial fraction of the particles do not have an essentially closed shell.
  • WO 97/16176 describes a method for forming microparticles (coated cell aggregates) by passing cell aggregates or air bubbles through layers of a density gradient.
  • the coating is a polymer layer, which is generally hydrophilic, and which is precipitated (solidified) by contacting the polymer with a non-solvent for the polymer.
  • the present inventors further observe that the cells to be coated should first be centrifuged through a polymer solution and should subsequently pass into a non- solvent layer needed to precipitate the polymers. This implies that the solvent and the non-solvent should be miscible to a sufficient extent. In the example of WO 97/16176, solvent and non-solvent are in fact even fully miscible.
  • JP 11 25355 A relates to a method similar to the method of WO 97/16176.
  • Particles in the form of core-shell double emulsion droplets can be produced using microfluidic methods (e.g. WO 2007/030501). Using these methods it is however difficult to produce small double emulsions droplets, e.g. smaller than 10 micron, since this requires microfluidic devices with very small features which will give rise to larger pressure drops, greater susceptibility to fouling, larger influence of the
