The biosynthesized CoFeO nanoparticles were characterized by XRD, FTIR, UV, VSM, and SEM via EDX analysis. The cubic phase of biosynthesized CoFeO nanoparticles and their crystallite size was determined by XRD.

The wall materials were optimized based on its encapsulation efficiency, antioxidant activity, total phenol content and encapsulation yield. The strains were spray-dried at the optimized condition: 120 °C inlet temperature, maltodextrin 30% and almond gum 1.
