Different parameters can be controlled during the spray-drying process in order to obtain desired characteristics inthe final product. However, some intrinsic drawbacks, suchas stickiness, hygroscopicity and low solubility of the productmay occur (Vidovi´c et al., 2014). Drying additives (or carriers)are commonly used in order to avoid these technological problems. The choice of the appropriate carrier depends on thedesired physicochemical properties and the final application of the powdered extract.
