AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Even with acid-resistant hard capsules, gastric acid can seep through the capsule membrane, potentially reducing the efficacy of active ingredients that deteriorate when exposed to acid.

Method used

A capsule formulation using a water-soluble film-forming polymer and gellan gum, combined with an edible oil, which separates the aqueous phase (including gastric acid) from the oil phase (including the active ingredient), reducing contact between the acid and the active ingredient.

Benefits of technology

The capsule formulation effectively protects active ingredients from gastric acid by separating the oil phase from the aqueous phase, maintaining the integrity and efficacy of the active ingredients.
