TL;DR: The Test Article is a fair, average representative sample of gum arabic originating from Acacia Senegal and conforming in all respects to established international standards of identity and purity as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: SUMMARY The sample of commercial gum arabic used as the “Test Article” in recent toxicological studies has been characterized chemically. Comparative analytical data, presented for seven other commercial gum arabic samples, and for five specimens of gum collected from authenticated Acacia Senegal trees in several gum producing countries, indicate that the Test Article is a fair, average representative sample of gum arabic originating from Acacia Senegal and conforming in all respects to established international standards of identity and purity.

TL;DR: In this article, a spray-drying microencapsulation of Lippia sidoides essential oil was investigated and the best thermal efficiency and powder recovery were found at 160°C.
Abstract: Spray drying microencapsulation of Lippia sidoides essential oil was investigated. Maltodextrin DE10 and gum arabic at different proportions (4:1, 3:2, 2:3, 0:1 m/m) was used as a carrier. The content of essential oil related to the carrier was 20 and 25% in weight and the emulsions were atomized from 30% up to 60% (m/m) of total solid concentration. Spray dryer inlet temperatures varied from 140 to 160°C and the best thermal efficiency and powder recovery were found at 160°C. Product properties and process performance were assessed on the basis of microscopic features of the powder (shape and size of microparticles), moisture content, and powder recovery. Encapsulation efficiency was estimated through determination of the content of essential oil in the microcapsules. The best encapsulation efficiency was related to experimental parameters as follows: solid content of the encapsulating composition of 50% (m/m), maltodextrin:gum arabic ratio of 0:1 (m/m) and carrier:essential oil ratio of 4:1 (m/m).
