heal.abstract	The present study reports on the encapsulation of fennel oleoresin by freeze-drying method using binary mixtures of modified starch, maltodextrin and chitosan, while a ternary one was also evaluated. The encapsulation ability of the used agents was evaluated based on their microencapsulating efficiency and storage stability towards the main compounds of fennel oleoresin. The properties of the initial formed emulsions (emulsion mean diameter, stability and viscosity) and the freeze-dried final products (moisture content, redispersibility, topography and storage stability) were also examined. Comparing the protection offered by the encapsulating agents, modified starch-chitosan mixture provided the greatest protection in terms of storage stability. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.	en
