Abstract

Abstract: Based on the solubility in supercritical CO₂,two strategies in which CO₂ plays different roles are used to make quercetine and astaxanthin particles by supercritical fluid technologies.The experimental results showed that micronized quercetine particles with mean particle size of 1.0-1.5 μm can be made via solution enhanced dispersion by supercritical fluids(SEDS) process,in which CO₂ worked as turbulent anti-solvent;while for astaxanthin,micronized particles with mean particle size of 0.3-0.8 μm were also made successfully by rapid expansion supercritical solution(RESS) process.

Key words: quercetine, astaxanthin, rapid expansion of supercritical solution, solution enhanced dispersion by supercritical fluids, particle formation
