With European fears of mad cow disease and Chinese fears over previous toxic capsules, gelatin capsules have certainly raised fears.By the plant polysaccharide capsules and capsules, the capsule is nothing but the best on the market of pullulan capsule, but because of its raw materials of pullulan polysaccharides is expensive, is also not easy to buy, most helpless or capsule factory mass production gelatin capsules, also useful cellulose capsule shells, and the modified starch production, but the effect is far not as good as those of pullulan capsule shell.With the recent completion of the Pullulan Polysaccharides project reported in China, it is not clear whether it will break the Japanese monopoly.
The natural Pullulan hollow capsule complies with today's nature-loving consumer group.For health care products, the adoption of capsules that are different from traditional animal-derived capsules provides more space for product differentiation and brand value enhancement.Second, with the endorsement of the International Muslim, Jewish and Vegetarian Associations, Pullulan polysaccharide capsules have become a green channel for domestic exports of medicines and health products.The unique market structure in China also gives pullulan polysaccharide capsule a new positioning: to solve the hygroscopic problem and improve the concept of natural TCM.
In addition, compared with traditional gelatin capsules of pullulan polysaccharide capsule has wide applicability, no risk of crosslinking reaction and the advantages of high stability of pullulan polysaccharides are natural water soluble polysaccharide, through fermentation and become, as food additives, pharmaceutical and consumer goods and widely used, is a source of soluble fiber, no gelatin crosslinking reaction of the amino acids in risk (after crosslinking can lead to disruption or dissolution), the drug release rate is relatively stable, individual difference is smaller.
In terms of storage conditions, pullulan plant capsule was tested to be almost not brittle in low humidity environment, and its capsule properties remained stable at high temperature.Gelatin capsules are easy to be hardened or brittle under high temperature and low humidity conditions, and are strongly dependent on the temperature, humidity and packaging materials of the storage environment.The pullulan polysaccharide plant capsule undoubtedly provides a solution for some pharmaceutical factories and health products enterprises due to the large temperature difference between the north and the south of China, the different storage conditions in transportation and retail terminals
