Problems solved by technology

Gelatin is an animal protein colloid, and contains a certain amount of animal fat. Generally, the animal fat content in gelatin is about 2.2%, which is easy to cause pollution (foot-and-mouth disease, mad cow disease, etc.), these shortcomings restrict the popularization and application of soft capsule products

Abstract

The invention discloses a Pulullan soft capsule and a preparation method thereof. The Pulullan soft capsule is prepared from the following components in percentage by weight: 20-60% of Pulullan, 0.15-2% of gelatinizer, 15-30% of plasticizer, 0.02-0.8% of emulsifier, 0.03-0.3% of cosolvent and 22-63% of water. The Pulullan soft capsule has the advantages of higher oxygen barrier property, higher shock strength, stable quality, low tendency to crushing, stable disintegration index and low tendency to hydrolysis, and can not easily produce fog or become yellow on the surface after long-time placement. The raw materials are from pure plants, thereby completely avoiding pollutions which can be caused by animal proteins. The capsule has lower water content than the gelatine capsule, is more suitable for filling hydroscopic drugs and aldehyde-containing drugs, and has wide market prospects and practical value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of capsules, in particular to a pullulan soft capsule with pullulan as a main raw material and a preparation method of the soft capsule. Background technique [0002] Soft capsule is a new type of capsule developed in the fields of medicine, food, health care products, cosmetics, etc. in recent years. It is a quantitative injection of the packaged material and encapsulated in the rubber to form a sealed capsule, with accurate and uniform content. Good performance, beautiful appearance and so on. [0003] But as the rubber of soft capsules, gelatin is basically used as the main ingredient gelling agent at present. The water content of hard capsules made of gelatin has a certain range (12.5% ​​to 17.5%). If it is lower than this range, the friability of the capsules will increase, which is not conducive to the filling of drugs. For hygroscopic drugs (some Chinese herbal medicines) ), the moisture in the caps...
