Development of Tea Polyphenol Self-assembly Nano Effervescent Tablets
In order to explore the optimal formula for tea polyphenol self-assembly effervescent tablets,this study used sensory evaluation and disintegration time as indicators.The formula was optimized through single factor experiments and orthogonal optimization experiments.Under weak alkaline conditions,tea polyphenols underwent self-assembly reactions to form nano tea polyphenol,which were applied to the product development.The experimental results showed that the optimal process formula by mass was 42.5% disintegrant(acid-base ratio 1:0.8),40.0% tea polyphenol nano powder,1.5% sucrose,3% polyethylene glycol 6000,1% salt,and 3.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC-Na),with the remainder being corn starch.The tea polyphenol effervescent tablets prepared by this process had a smooth surface,intact shape,uniform light brown solution,strong and lasting tea aroma,good taste,small size,light weight,convenient portability,and easy usage.They retained the nutritional function of tea polyphenols while providing a new flavor to the effervescent tablets.The systematic study of tea polyphenol self-assembled nano-effervescent tablets through single factor and orthogonal tests provided theoretical reference and guidance for the preparation.
