Using a SPG membrane, the IMK-40 Device can easily make mono-dispersed particles from sub-micron to several hundreds micrometer.
In particular, as a DEVICE specialized to the manufacture of MACRO-EMULSION that has a size greater than 100 micrometer, The video below shows the process of creating particles through a membrane.
DP(Disperse Phase) ; Annato oil
CP(Continuous Phase) ; Carbomer solution without emulsifier
SPG Membrane ; Tube type with 50 micro pore
This process provides a drop of anato oil of about 150 micrometer size inside the non-surfactant CP. In addition, other oil drops can be easily manufactured.

OverviewA tropical shrub from South America of which the fruits are medicinally used. Bixa, or Annato is a natural flavoring & coloring agent (food applications) made from the fruit pulp. The herbal tincture, made from the fruit and seeds, is anti-fungal, anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory. It is a treatment for heartburn, diuretic, high cholesterol, liver and stomach disorders. Also used as an aphrodisiac, stops coughing, reduces phlegm, it is mildly laxative and reduces acid. The indigenous people in Suriname have used the pulp surrounding the Anatto seeds for many centuries as body paint during festivities. Also used as a fabric dye; as a sunscreen and against insect bites. Anatto oil is emollient and the content has antioxidant properties. Phyto - chemicals Bixin and norbixin are the main pigments contributing to the color of Annatto extracts. Extracts are obtained from the outer layer of the seeds. The principal pigment in annatto extract is cis-bixin, which is contained in the resinous coating of the seed itself. The seeds contain a higher concentration of delta-tocotrienol (naturally occurring vitamin E compound) than any other vegetable species (Frega, Mozzon & Bocci 1998). Three apocarotenoids were isolated from annato (B. orellana) and synthesized. They were: methyl (9Z)-8'-oxo-6, 8'diapocarten-6-oate (2), methyl Z)-10'-oxo-6, 10'diapocaroten-6-oate (4), and methyl (9Z)-14'-oxo-6,14'-diapocaroten-6-oate (Haberli & Pfander 1999). Three minor cartenoids were isolated from the seed coat of B. orellana fruits by chromatographic methods and, for the first time, geranylgeraniol has been found esterified with a carotenoid carboxylic acid (Mercadante, Steck & Pfander 1999). |
