Pediococcus acidilactici has gained research and commercial interest due to its outstanding probiotic properties, yet its survival during storage and consumption requires improvement. This study aims to enhance P. acidilactici survival using spray drying encapsulation. Different inlet air temperatures (120 °:C, 150 °:C, and 170 °:C) and whey protein isolate (WPI):gum arabic (GA) ratios (1:1, 3:1, 1:3) were tested. Cell viability was significantly (p <: 0.05) affected by the inlet temperature but not the WPI:GA ratio. Increasing the inlet temperature to 170 °:C significantly decreased P. acidilactici viability by 1.36 log cycles, from 8.61 log CFU/g to 7.25 log CFU/g. The inlet temperature of 150 °:C resulted in a powder yield (63.12%) higher than at 120 °:C (58.97%), as well as significantly (p <: 0.05) lower moisture content (5.71%) and water activity (aw 0.21). Viable cell counts in all encapsulated P. acidilactici were maintained at 5.24&ndash:6.75 log CFU/g after gastrointestinal tract (GIT) simulation, with WPI:GA of 3:1 and inlet temperature 150 °:C having the smallest log reduction (0.3 log cycles). All samples containing different WPI:GA ratios maintained sufficient viability (>:7 log CFU/g) during the first three weeks of storage at 25 °:C. These results could provide insights for further developing P. acidilactici as commercial probiotic products.
