Delwa holds the first US patent in the field of saffron nanoemulsion
The invention is based on the proboscis ultrasonic homogenizer method, which has high efficiency in the production of nanoemulsion of Iranian saffron (Crocus sativus) and reduction of droplet size in small quantities. This product was first produced and the important point in this methodology is not to use chemicals or unnatural preservatives.
A Technological Approach
Delwa method is a proboscis ultrasonic homogenizer which has a high efficiency in the production of Iranian saffron nanoemulsion (Crocus sativus) to reduce droplet size in small amounts. This product was produced for the first time and the important point in this methodology is that no chemicals or unnatural preservatives were used. The advantages of this method compared to other mechanical methods are less energy consumption, use of less emulsifier amounts and production of a more uniform emulsion with smaller droplet size.
Increasing Efficiency
Ultrasonic method of probation homogenizer in Delwa increases the production efficiency of saffron. Saffron produced based on this method has a more ideal taste and smell than the macroscopic state of saffron, more color and coloring properties compared to ordinary saffron, more lasting and stable taste than powdered and ground saffron, which ultimately the amount of saffron consumption in terms of area per unit volume is greatly reduced and saves the amount of effective substance consumed.
Benefit of Nanotechnology
Delwa is a product based on nanotechnology. Researchers are focusing their efforts on nanotechnology to address nutritional issues, given the growing consumer demand for healthy and safe food products, as well as the need for food systems with the ability to encapsulate, protect and release functional compounds. In this regard, nanoemulsion technologies are especially suitable for the construction of encapsulation systems thanks to the prevention of degradation and the preservation of biologically active substances.

Iranian saffron nanoemulsion
Saffron is a spice obtained from the stigmas and dried creams (Crocus Sativus L) of Crocus Sativus plant and one of the important applications of this red spice can be used in the food industry (transfer of flavor and aroma color to food And beverages) as well as use in cooking and pharmacy (due to its safety properties). The history of saffron plant production and breeding dates back to 2500 years ago.
Applications of Iranian Saffron Nanoemulsion
Food Industry Factories
In all food science engineering factories, it can be used after product processing.
Exporters of Saffron
Exporters of saffron to other countries can increase the volume of exports by introducing and selling this product to destination countries.
Catering and Food Centers
In general, in all centers that use saffron, it reduces the consumption of saffron and also improves the organoleptic properties (taste, color, smell and taste).
Production Objectives of Iranian Saffron Nanoemulsion Crocus Sativus
- Reduceing the excessive consumption of this rich food
- Improving quality in order to produce the final product
- Increasing the amount of taste and color, smell and all the organoleptic properties of saffron
- Producing the smallest nanometer size possible in terms of stability in saffron essential oil
