Optimize the preparation process condition of breath fresh popping beads.Taking appearance,film thickness and particle size as evaluation indexes,select sodium alginate concentration,calcium lactate concentration of core liquid,ball formation time,calcium lactate concentration of ball formation,curing time,and core liquid addition to carry out single-factor experiment.Based on the single-factor experiments,four factors such as sodium alginate concentration,core liquid calcium lactate concentration,balling time and curing time were screened out to optimize the preparation process of breath-freshening popping beads using Box-Behnken response surface method.The experimental results showed that the optimal preparation process of breath-freshening popping beads was as follows:sodium alginate solution concentration of 1.4%,core liquid calcium lactate concentration of 5%,ball formation time of 30 s,ball formation calcium lactate concentration of 1%,curing time of 15 min,and the core liquid addition volume of 100 μL.The popping beads obtained by the method had rounded and flat appearances,homogeneous particle sizes,and good popping sensations with a rich texture.
