DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0022] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
[0023] <<The process leading up to the first prototype>> (See Figure 1) When citric acid, baking soda, and water are combined, a chemical reaction occurs and the mixture foams up. If the foaming occurs before use, the bag will swell up, which can be a problem. In order to slow down the chemical reactions that occur after the drug is divided into individual doses, the researchers came up with a prototype that uses a coating made from baking soda and citric acid. When used, the coated product was found to produce more foam when dissolved in water than the uncoated product, as was visually observed. Since fluidity is necessary when filling individual packages, using a coated product (granular product) can eliminate the granulation process, providing significant cost benefits. First prototype ●Product Specifications ·5,000mg / packet ●Combination · Dextrin: 700 mg · Sodium bicarbonate (granular product): 1500 mg · Citric acid (coated product): 1500 mg · Flavor: 750 mg · Xylitol: 500 mg · Sweetener (Stevia): 50 mg ● Manufacturing method · Trituration mixing (Thoroughly manage indoor humidity so that the water content of the mixed powder does not increase) · Sub-packaging by hand and conducting an accelerated test (37 - 40 °C) ● Results · The sub-packaging of the accelerated test product begins to slightly expand after about 5 days. · It was found that the reaction can be delayed but not eliminated. · Even in the case of the coated product, it was concluded that it would penetrate after mixing. · Since the water content of the mixed powder cannot be completely eliminated, "baking soda", "citric acid", and "water" will combine.
[0024] ≪Process until the second trial production≫ (See Figure 2) The blending ratios of "baking soda" and "citric acid" were tried in several patterns, but all of them expanded. Meetings were held repeatedly to see if there was any solution. We arrived at the idea of separating "baking soda" and "citric acid". When dividing "baking soda" and "citric acid" into two sub-packages (sub-packaging according to the single-use amount), select raw materials without "acid" in the blending raw materials on the "baking soda" side and divide the blending. Based on the above, the adjustment of "sour taste" and "sweet taste" was also carried out. Second trial production ● Product specifications · 2,750 mg / A (baking soda) sub-package, 2,250 mg / B (citric acid) sub-package ● Blending <A (baking soda) sub-package - 2.75 g / package> · Dextrin: 450 mg · Sodium bicarbonate (granular product): 1500 mg · Xylitol: 500 mg · Sweetener (Stevia): 300 mg <B (Citric acid) sub-pack - 2.25 g / pack> · Citric acid (coated product): 1,000 mg · Citric acid (ordinary product): 500 mg · Flavor: 750 mg ● Manufacturing method · Trituration mixing (strictly manage indoor temperature and humidity to prevent the water content of the mixed powder from increasing) · Sub-pack by hand-packing and conduct accelerated test ● Results · There is no change in both A and B sub-packages of the accelerated test product · As a result of repeatedly adjusting the taste and foaming condition, it reaches 3.5 g for sub-package A and 1.5 g for sub-package B · Considering the taste and foaming condition, change the compound raw materials for each sub-package · Repeatedly conduct test adjustments for verification
[0025] ≪Process until the third trial production≫ (see Figure 3) The problem of sub-package expansion has been solved by separated sub-packing Next, the "taste" during use, the "foaming degree" when adding water during use, and the selection and verification of the "stick filling process" were repeatedly carried out Based on the content of the previous trial production, the formulation was selected and the stick filling test was conducted The third trial production ● Product specifications · 3,500 mg / A (sodium bicarbonate) sub-pack, 1,500 mg / B (citric acid) sub-pack · Stick size: 22 mm × 130 mm / A, 22 mm × 100 mm / B ● Formulation <A (sodium bicarbonate) sub-pack - 3.50 g / pack> · Dextrin: 450 mg · Sodium bicarbonate (granular product): 1500 mg · Flavor: 750 mg · Xylitol: 500 mg · Sweetener (Stevia): 300 mg <B (citric acid) sub-pack - 1.50 g / pack> · Citric acid (coated product): 1,000 mg · Resistant dextrin: 500 mg ● Manufacturing method · Dilution mixing (Strictly manage indoor temperature and humidity to prevent the water content of the mixed powder from increasing) · Stick filling test using the actual machine ● Results · There is no change in both Sub - packs A and B of the accelerated test samples · During stick filling for both A and B, powder adheres to the edge of the filling sliding part mass (the part where powder drops quantitatively) of the machine, and stable filling cannot be achieved · Lowering the water content or using a static eliminator for the filling test did not improve the situation, and it was determined that re - selection of raw materials was necessary · Review the physical properties and formulations of each raw material and repeat the tests many times
[0026] ≪Adjustment of raw material formulation≫ Refer to Figures 4, 5, 6, and 7 In order to avoid the situation where raw materials adhere to the filling sliding part mass during stick filling and stable filling cannot be achieved, the raw material formulations were varied and raw materials were selected
[0027] ≪Process towards the fourth trial production≫ Refer to Figure 8 ◎ Change the dextrin in Sub - pack A to resistant dextrin (granular product) ◎ Also change the fragrance in Sub - pack A to a raw material manufacturer with good fluidity ◎ Change the xylitol in Sub - pack A from the powdered product to the crystalline product ◎ Change the resistant dextrin (granular product) in Sub - pack B to isomalt (granular product) ◎ Adjust the water content of each mixed powder and start the actual machine trial production again Fourth trial production ● Product specifications · 3,500 mg / A (sodium bicarbonate) sub - pack, 1,500 mg / B (citric acid) sub - pack · Stick size: 22 mm × 120 mm / A, 22 mm × 100 mm / B ● Formulation <Sub - pack A (sodium bicarbonate) - 3.50 g / pack> · Resistant dextrin (granular product): 950 mg · Sodium bicarbonate (granular product): 1500 mg · Fragrance: 250 mg · Xylitol (crystalline): 500 mg · Sweetener (Stevia): 300 mg <B (Citric acid) subpackage - 1.50 g / package> · Citric acid (coated): 1,000 mg · Isomalt: 500 mg ● Manufacturing method · Trituration mixing (thoroughly manage indoor temperature and humidity to prevent the water content of the mixed powder from increasing) · Stick filling test using the actual machine ● Results · The accelerated test samples showed no changes in both Subpackage A and Subpackage B · There were no problems in the stick filling process for both A and B
[0028] ≪Process towards the 5th prototype≫ Refer to Figure 9 The stick filling process was cleared while ensuring "taste" and "foaming degree". The stick size was changed for cost review Re - prototype testing was started with the desired stick size 5th prototype ● Product specifications · 3,500 mg / A (sodium bicarbonate) subpackage, 1,500 mg / B (citric acid) subpackage · Stick size: 22 mm × 120 mm / A, 22 mm × 80 mm / B ● Formulation <A (sodium bicarbonate) subpackage - 3.50 g / package> · Resistant dextrin (granular) (Fibersol - 2AG, manufactured by Matsutani Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.): 950 mg · Sodium bicarbonate (granular) (Sodium bicarbonate granules (food additive), manufactured by Iwata Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.): 1,500 mg · Flavor (Lemon Micron D - 911, manufactured by Takasago Perfumery Co., Ltd.): 250 mg · Xylitol (crystalline) (Xylitol fine powder, manufactured by Mitsubishi Corporation Foodtech Co., Ltd.): 500 mg · Sweetener (Stevia) (Enzyme - treated Stevia SK Sweet Z3, manufactured by Nippon Paper Industries Co., Ltd.): 300 mg <B (citric acid) subpackage - 1.50 g / package> Citric acid (coated product) (Iwata Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. Food additive Citric acid (anhydrous) preparation Citric acid CI): 1,000 mg Isomalt (Showa Sangyo Co., Ltd. Isomalt 900P): 500mg ●Manufacturing method - Dilution and mixing (strict indoor temperature and humidity control to prevent the moisture content of the mixed powder from increasing) A stick filling test was carried out using the actual machine (to ensure that the powder does not stick to the filling sliding mass). ●Results · There was no change in the accelerated test products in either package A or B. · No problems with the stick filling process for both A and B. Although the stick size has been reduced, it still passed the filling test.
