Stress on Proteins During the Spray Drying Processes

Stress on Proteins During the Spray Drying Processes 

Spray drying of protein solutions can result in substantial inactivation. Proteins have the tendency to denature and undergo irreversible aggregation during various steps of spray drying for various stress reasons. These reasons are shown schematically in Fig. 6.31 (Lee, 2002) and will be discussed in the following.
