This study examined the drying kinetics of catalase protein solutions using acoustic levitation. Catalase droplets containing trehalose dried more slowly and formed denser particles compared to catalase-only droplets. Trehalose increased the residual enzyme activity of catalase to 95% while droplets dried at higher humidity showed lower activity. Acoustic levitation is a useful technique for studying single droplet drying kinetics but may not replicate conditions of spray drying.
