Abstract:

Using a vegetal gelatinizer, pullulan as the main material of soft capsule shell, the production technology and stability of soft capsule shell were investigated. The results showed that all conditions of disintegration time, permeability oil, oxidization of soft capsule-contained substance and conglutination of soft capsule shell made from pullulan after storage are better than that made from glutin.

Key words: pullulan, soft capsule shell, disintegration time, permeability oil, oxidization of soft capsule-contained substance, conglutination
