Abstract: | The release kinetics of (−)-menthol from chewing gum was investigated using various encapsulated powder of (−)-menthol. The
apparatus of flavor release of chewing gum was made with a glass container of mashing homogenizer. Flavor release behavior
could be correlated with Avrami’s equation. Chewing gum containing (−)-menthol/γ-CD complex powder had longer retention of
(−)-menthol compared with the β-CD complex powder and the (−)-menthol encapsulated in modified starches. The activation energies
of (−)-menthol release from chewing gum were 106 kJ/mol for γ-CD complex and 74 kJ/mol for (−)-menthol/β-CD complex powder
and emulsified (−)-menthol encapsulated in HI-CAP, respectively. |
