[0001] DESCRIPTION
[0002] A specialized heme iron-glycine chelated iron iron-supplement preparation
[0003] TECHNICAL FIELD
[0004] The present invention relates to the technical field of nutritional preparations and pharmaceutical preparations, and in particular to a specialized heme iron-glycine chelated iron iron-supplement preparation.
[0005] BACKGROUND ART
[0006] Iron is an essential trace element for the human body and is a core constituent of hemoglobin, myoglobin, cytochromes, and various iron-containing enzymes, participating in key physiological processes such as oxygen transport, energy metabolism, immune regulation, and DNA synthesis.
[0007] At present, existing oral iron-supplement preparations are mainly divided into two categories:
[0008] The first category comprises inorganic iron preparations, represented by ferrous sulfate. Although inexpensive, they have poor water solubility and release a large quantity of free iron ions in the gastrointestinal tract, readily causing severe adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, constipation, and metallic taste in the mouth, with very poor patient compliance. Meanwhile, their absorption is readily inhibited by antinutritional factors such as phytic acid, oxalic acid, and tannins in the diet, resulting in very low iron-supplement efficiency.
[0009] The second category comprises ordinary small-molecule organic iron preparations, represented by ferrous gluconate, ferrous lactate, and ferrous fumarate. Their water solubility is superior to that of inorganic iron and gastrointestinal irritation is somewhat reduced, but they are still absorbed in ionic form, remain significantly affected by dietary antinutritional factors, and show only limited improvement in bioavailability, while still failing to avoid problems such as constipation, black stool, and gastrointestinal discomfort.
[0010] Most preparations in these two categories are simple combinations ofDESCRIPTION
[0011] two iron sources and lack synergistic design based on the absorption mechanisms of different iron sources, so that they cannot achieve multi-pathway, dual-channel synergistic absorption and cannot balance rapid and sustained iron supplementation. Meanwhile, absorption-promoting components are mostly chemically synthesized vitamin C, which has very poor stability and is readily oxidized and inactivated during preparation processing, storage, and gastrointestinal transport, causing substantial attenuation of its absorption-promoting effect. Moreover, synthetic vitamin C lacks the auxiliary effects of natural active components, cannot protect the gastrointestinal mucosa, and cannot fundamentally solve the adverse reactions of iron-supplement preparations;
[0012] In addition, existing preparations focus only on iron supplementation while neglecting full-chain synergy in intestinal absorption, in-vivo transport, and hemoglobin synthesis, readily leading to intestinal iron accumulation and a potential risk of iron overload upon long-term use, thereby failing to satisfy the long-term iron-supplement requirements of special populations.
[0013] Therefore, developing an iron-supplement preparation featuring synergistic absorption of multiple iron sources, stable and efficient natural absorption-promoting components, and concurrent intestinal-protective effects has become a technical problem urgently to be solved in this field.
[0014] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0015] An object of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art by providing a specialized heme iron-glycine chelated iron iron-supplement preparation. By employing a four-source composite of heme iron, glycine chelated iron, ferrous gluconate, and ferrous lactate, the preparation simultaneously supplements iron through three pathways, namely direct absorption via heme receptors, chelated absorption via amino-acid channels, andDESCRIPTION
[0016] rapid absorption via ionic diffusion. At the absorption-mechanism level, this overcomes the defects of high irritation and low absorption associated with a single inorganic iron source, the obvious dietary inhibition suffered by ordinary organic iron, and the slow onset or high cost of a single novel iron source. The four iron sources act synergistically in proportion to one another, thereby synchronously reducing free iron ions and complementarily superimposing absorption channels. This not only avoids corrosion of and irritation to the gastrointestinal mucosa caused by high concentrations of free iron ions, but also eliminates the blocking effect of phytic acid, oxalic acid, and tannins on iron absorption, so that iron can be taken up in the intestine in a stable, efficient, and multi-pathway manner, thereby achieving an iron-supplementing effect that combines non-irritation, high utilization, and prolonged efficacy, and solving the technical problems of low bioavailability, strong side effects, and poor compliance of conventional iron- supplement preparations.

[0052] Purification and concentration: centrifuging the extract using a disc centrifuge at 8000-10000 rpm for 10-15 min, taking the supernatant, and subjecting the supernatant to low-temperature concentration through a nanofiltration membrane having a molecular- weight cutoff of 100-200 Da to obtain a concentrated solution having a solid content of 15%-20%;

[0060] Compared with the prior art, the specialized heme iron-glycine chelated iron iron-supplement preparation provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0061] I. By employing a four-source composite of heme iron, glycine chelated iron, ferrous gluconate, and ferrous lactate, the present invention simultaneously supplements iron through three pathways, namely direct absorption via heme receptors, chelated absorption via amino-acid channels, and rapid absorption via ionic diffusion. At the absorption-mechanism level, this overcomes the defects of high irritation and low absorption associated with a single inorganic iron source, the obvious dietary inhibition suffered by ordinary organic iron, and the slow onset or high cost of a single novel iron source. The four iron sources act synergistically in proportion to one another, thereby synchronously reducing free iron ions and complementarily superimposing absorption channels. This not only avoids corrosion of and irritation to the gastrointestinal mucosa caused by high concentrations of free iron ions, but also eliminates the blocking effect of phytic acid, oxalic acid, and tannins on iron absorption, so that iron can be taken up in the intestine in a stable, efficient, and multi-pathway manner, thereby achievingDESCRIPTION
[0062] an iron- supplementing effect that combines non-irritation, high utilization, and prolonged efficacy.
[0063] II. The present invention employs a combination of camu camu extract and acerola cherry extract and uses highly active natural vitamin C together with polyphenols, flavonoids, and other secondary metabolites to replace synthetic vitamin C, which is prone to oxidative degradation, thereby solving the defect of poor stability and rapid in-vivo inactivation of conventional absorption-promoting components. In a weakly acidic gastrointestinal environment, the natural components continuously reduce ferric iron to ferrous iron, thereby enhancing iron solubility and transmembrane transport efficiency. Meanwhile, polyphenolic substances can scavenge iron-induced oxygen free radicals, protect the gastrointestinal mucosal barrier, alleviate mucosal inflammatory injury and inhibition of intestinal peristalsis, and improve adverse reactions such as constipation, black stool, and metallic taste. This combination simultaneously achieves absorption promotion, stability enhancement, intestinal protection, and side-effect reduction.
[0064] Other advantages, objectives, and features of the present invention will be set forth in part in the following description, and in part will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon examination of the following disclosure, or may be learned from practice of the invention.

[0147] Mixing and granulation: placing the iron- source composite, natural absorption-promoting functional components, fillers, and disintegrant into a wet granulator, premixing for 10 min, adding the binder solution to prepare a wet mass, and granulating through a 20 mesh sieve;
[0148] Drying and sizing: drying the wet granules in a fluidized bed at 58 C until the moisture content is <=3.0%, and passing the dried granules through a 24 mesh sieve for sizing;DESCRIPTION
[0149] Final blending and tableting: adding the lubricants, mixing for 8 min, and compressing into tablets to obtain core tablets while controlling the tablet weight at 0.89 g / tablet;

[0152] The coated tablets prepared in this embodiment have a uniform and complete coating layer that can completely isolate the fishy iron odor and provide no off-odor upon oral administration, thereby solving the pain point of metallic aftertaste remaining in the mouth after taking conventional iron-supplement tablets. The coating layer can effectively isolate oxygen and moisture. In an accelerated stability test for 6 months, the active-ingredient retention rate is >=92%, and the storage stability is significantly better than that of uncoated tablets. At the same time, the coating does not affect the disintegration and dissolution performance of the preparation, and the disintegration time limit is <=30 min, thereby satisfying storage and administration requirements for long-term use.
[0153] Embodiment 4
[0154] This embodiment relates to a composite iron-supplement preparation in the form of an oral solution. The dissolution system and stabilization system of the active ingredients are optimized, and the preparation is produced throughout using an oxygen-isolated process. As a liquid preparation, no disintegration process is required, absorption and onset are rapid, and administration is convenient. The preparation is suitable for infants, children, populations with swallowing difficulties, and iron-deficient populations with weak gastrointestinal function.DESCRIPTION
[0155] The formulation composition based on the input quantity for 1000 units (10 mL / unit) is specifically as follows:
[0156] Active ingredients:
[0157] Iron-source composite: 1000 g of heme iron, 2000 g of glycine chelated iron, 1000 g of ferrous gluconate, and 1000 g of ferrous lactate, totaling 5000 g;
[0158] Natural absorption-promoting functional components: 5000 g of camu camu extract and 5000 g of acerola cherry extract, totaling 10,000 g;
[0159] Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients:
[0160] Flavoring agents: 6000 g of high-fructose syrup, 100 g of sucralose, 800 g of citric acid, and 300 g of peach flavor, totaling 7200 g;
[0161] Preservative: 150 g of potassium sorbate;
[0162] Solubilizers: 800 g of polysorbate 80 and 2000 g of glycerin, totaling 2800 g;
[0163] Stabilizers: 100 g of disodium edetate and 500 g of sodium citrate, totaling 600 g;
[0164] Purified water: an appropriate amount.
[0165] The preparation method is as follows:
[0166] Raw-material pretreatment: weighing each raw material according to the formulation amount for later use;
[0167] Initial preparation: taking 80% of the formulation amount of purified water and placing it in a clean solution-preparation tank, introducing high-purity nitrogen throughout to isolate oxygen, sequentially adding disodium edetate, sodium citrate, potassium sorbate, high-fructose syrup, sucralose, and citric acid, and stirring until completely dissolved; then adding glycerin and polysorbate 80 and stirring uniformly; subsequently adding the iron-source composite, camu camu extract, and acerola cherry extract, and stirring for 30 min until completely dissolved and uniformly dispersed;
[0168] Volume make-up: adding purified water to the solution-preparation tankDESCRIPTION
[0169] to a total volume of 100,000 mL and continuing to stir for 15 min to obtain a medicinal solution, while controlling the temperature of the medicinal solution at <=30 C throughout;
[0170] Filtration: first coarsely filtering the medicinal solution through a 0.45 um microporous membrane and then finely filtering through a 0.22 um microporous membrane to obtain a clear medicinal solution;
[0171] Filling, sealing, and sterilization: aseptically filling and sealing the finely filtered medicinal solution using an oral-liquid filling machine at 10 mL / unit, and after lamp inspection and passing all-item inspection, carrying out outer packaging to obtain the finished product.
[0172] The oral solution prepared in this embodiment is clear and uniform, free from precipitation and phase separation, and has no obvious fishy iron odor or metallic taste, with good palatability and high acceptance among children and elderly populations. By combining an oxygen-isolated process throughout with a stabilizer system, the change rate in active-ingredient content is <=3% after 6 months under light-protected storage conditions, demonstrating excellent stability. In the gastrointestinal tract, no disintegration process is required, and absorption can begin directly, so the onset is faster than that of solid preparations. At the same time, the solution retains the advantages of low irritation and high absorption of the present invention, thereby meeting the gentle iron-supplementation needs of sensitive populations with weak gastrointestinal function.
[0173] Comparative Example 1
[0174] This comparative example relates to a commercially available inorganic iron-supplement preparation using commonly used single-source ferrous sulfate as the iron source and synthetic vitamin C as the absorption-promoting component, without involving the four-source iron composite system or the natural absorption-promoting components of the present invention, and is used as a blank control for verifying the iron-supplement effect,DESCRIPTION
[0175] gastrointestinal irritation, and bioavailability of the preparations of the present invention.
[0176] The formulation based on the input quantity for 1000 tablets is as follows:
[0177] Ferrous sulfate: 3000 g (iron content about 20%);
[0178] Synthetic vitamin C: 10,000 g;
[0179] Excipients: 40,000 g of microcrystalline cellulose, 30,000 g of lactose, 5000 g of crospovidone, 2500 g of povidone K30, and 1000 g of magnesium stearate;
[0180] Preparation method: carried out with reference to the conventional tablet preparation process of Embodiment 1.
[0181] This comparative example uses a single iron source and can only be absorbed through ionic diffusion. It is significantly inhibited by antinutritional factors such as phytic acid and tannins in the diet, has low bioavailability, and at the same time releases a large quantity of free iron ions in the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in strong gastrointestinal irritation and a high incidence of adverse reactions, and thus serves as a blank control of the present invention.
[0182] Comparative Example 2
[0183] This comparative example relates to a dual-iron-source formulation containing only heme iron and glycine chelated iron, without ferrous gluconate or ferrous lactate, and at the same time uses synthetic vitamin C to replace the natural absorption-promoting functional components of the present invention, for verifying the synergistic enhancement effects of the four-source full-channel iron composite and the natural absorption-promoting components of the present invention.
[0184] The formulation based on the input quantity for 1000 tablets is as follows:
[0185] Heme iron: 8000 g; glycine chelated iron: 10,000 g;DESCRIPTION
[0186] Synthetic vitamin C: 20,000 g;
[0187] Excipients: same as in Embodiment 1;
[0188] Preparation method: carried out with reference to the conventional tablet preparation process of Embodiment 1.
[0189] This comparative example covers only two iron-absorption pathways and cannot simultaneously provide the dual effects of rapidly increasing serum iron and long-term replenishment of iron stores. In addition, because synthetic vitamin C, which is liable to oxidation and inactivation, is used, both the absorption-promoting effect and the storage stability are inferior to those of the natural absorption-promoting components of the present invention, and no intestinal-protective or side-effect-reducing effect is provided. The example is therefore used as a comparative verification of the technical effects of the four-source full-channel synergy and the full-chain enhancement by natural components of the present invention.
[0190] Comparative Example 3
[0191] In this comparative example, the iron-source composite is exactly the same as that of Embodiment 1 of the present invention, and only the dual natural absorption-promoting functional components of the present invention are replaced with synthetic vitamin C in an equal weight amount, while the remaining excipients and preparation process are completely identical. The example is used as a single-variable control to verify the advantages of the natural absorption-promoting functional components of the present invention in terms of stability, absorption promotion, intestinal protection, and side-effect reduction.
[0192] The formulation based on the input quantity for 1000 tablets is as follows:
[0193] Iron-source composite: same as in Embodiment 1, totaling 14,000 g; Synthetic vitamin C: 20,000 g;
[0194] Excipients: same as in Embodiment 1;DESCRIPTION
[0195] Preparation method: carried out with reference to the conventional tablet preparation process of Embodiment 1.
[0196] The only difference between this comparative example and Embodiment 1 of the present invention lies in the absorption-promoting components, thereby enabling a single-variable comparative verification and directly demonstrating the advantages of the natural composite component consisting of camu camu extract + acerola cherry extract of the present invention in terms of vitamin C stability, promotion of iron absorption, protection of the gastrointestinal mucosa, and reduction of adverse reactions.
[0197] Effect Verification Tests
[0198] To verify the technical effects of the present invention, systematic verification tests were carried out using the samples of Embodiment 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3. The specific test methods and results are as follows:
[0199] (1) Comparative test of vitamin C stability
[0200] Test samples: the sample of Embodiment 1 and the sample of Comparative Example 3;
[0201] Test conditions: accelerated stability test, temperature 40 C +- 2 C, relative humidity 75% +- 5%, for 6 months;
[0202] Test index: samples were taken at 0 month, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, and 6 months, respectively, to determine the vitamin C content in the samples and calculate the vitamin C retention rate, retention rate = (measured content / initial content) x 100%;DESCRIPTION
[0203] The test results are shown in Table 1 below:
[0204] Retention Retention Retention Retention Retention Sample Rate at 0 Rate at 1 Rate at 2 Rate at 3 Rate at 6 months month months months months Embodiment 1 100% 98.72% 97.54% 96.18% 93.25% Comparative
[0205] 100% 92.36% 85.69% 78.42% 65.17% Example 3
[0206]
[0207] Table 1 Results of comparative vitamin C stability test As can be seen from the results in Table 1, the natural absorption-promoting functional components of the present invention composed of camu camu extract and acerola cherry extract still exhibited a vitamin C retention rate as high as 93.25% after 6 months of accelerated testing, which was far higher than that of the synthetic vitamin C of Comparative Example 3 (65.17%). This demonstrates that the natural absorption-promoting components of the present invention can significantly improve the stability of vitamin C, solve the pain point that traditional synthetic vitamin C is readily oxidized and inactivated, and maintain absorption-promoting activity for a long period.
[0208] (2) In vitro dissolution test
[0209] Test samples: the sample of Embodiment 1 and the samples of Comparative Examples 1 to 3;
[0210] Test method: with reference to the Dissolution and Release Test Method II (paddle method) in General Chapter 0931 of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2025 edition), using 900 mL of pH 4.5 acetate buffer as the dissolution medium, with a rotation speed of 50 rpm and a temperature of 37 C +- 0.5 C, sampling at 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, and 60 min, respectively, determining the ferrous ion content in the dissolution medium, and calculating the cumulative dissolution;
[0211] The test results are shown in Table 2 below:DESCRIPTION
[0212] Sample 5 min 15 min 30 min 60 min Embodiment 1 38.65 72.38 89.57 98.26 Comparative Example 1 12.37 35.62 58.79 76.54 Comparative Example 2 18.53 42.15 65.33 82.41 Comparative Example 3 35.29 68.47 85.62 96.18
[0213]
[0214] Table 2 Comparative results of cumulative ferrous dissolution (%) As can be seen from the results in Table 2, the sample of Embodiment 1 of the present invention achieved a ferrous dissolution of 38.65% at 5 min and a dissolution rate of over 70% at 15 min, both far higher than those of Comparative Examples 1 and 2, demonstrating that the multi-source iron composite formulation of the present invention can achieve rapid dissolution while balancing the rapidity of iron supplementation. Meanwhile, the cumulative dissolution at 60 min reached 98.26%, indicating complete dissolution and thereby laying a good foundation for intestinal absorption of iron.
[0215] (3) In situ intestinal absorption test in rats
[0216] Test animals: SPF-grade SD rats, male, body weight 200 +- 20 g;
[0217] Test samples: the samples of Embodiment 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3, each prepared as test solutions having the same iron content using normal saline;
[0218] Test method: using an in situ intestinal perfusion model in rats, the rats were fasted for 12 h and then anesthetized, the duodenal segment was ligated to establish an intestinal perfusion circulation, each group was respectively administered the corresponding test solution, and after 2 h of circulation the residual iron amount in the perfusate was determined to calculate the intestinal iron absorption rate;
[0219] The test results are shown in Table 3 below:DESCRIPTION
[0220] Sample Intestinal Iron Absorption Rate (%) Embodiment 1 38.72±2.I5
[0221] Comparative Example 1 8.64±1.03
[0222] Comparative Example 2 22.58±1.76
[0223] Comparative Example 3 29.43±1.94
[0224]
[0225] Table 3 Comparative results of intestinal iron absorption rate in rats As can be seen from the results in Table 3, the intestinal iron absorption rate of Embodiment 1 of the present invention reached as high as 38.72%, which is more than four times that of the conventional ferrous sulfate preparation of Comparative Example 1 and is significantly higher than those of Comparative Examples 2 and 3. This demonstrates that the formulation of the present invention, combining multi-source iron synergy with natural absorption-promoting components, can greatly improve the intestinal absorption efficiency of iron and realize a synergistic enhancement effect.
[0226] (4) Pharmacodynamic test in rats with iron-deficiency anemia model Test animals: SPF-grade SD rats, female, body weight 160-180 g;
[0227] Model establishment: an iron-deficiency anemia rat model was established using a low-iron diet + tail-vein bloodletting method. After successful model establishment, the hemoglobin (Hb) of the rats was <100 g / L and the serum iron (SI) was significantly reduced;
[0228] Test grouping: the successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into five groups, with 10 rats in each group, namely a model control group, an Embodiment 1 group, and Comparative Example 1 to Comparative Example 3 groups, with an additional normal control group (fed with a normal diet and not modeled);
[0229] Administration method: each group of rats was intragastrically administered at a dose of 5 mg / kg calculated as elemental iron, once daily for 28 consecutive days; the model control group and the normal control groupDESCRIPTION
[0230] were given equal volumes of normal saline; all rats were fed a low-iron diet during the test period;
[0231] Test indexes: hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (HCT), serum iron (SI), and serum ferritin (SF) were measured before administration, on day 14 of administration, and on day 28 of administration;

[0243] As can be seen from the results in Table 4, after 28 days of administration, the hemoglobin, hematocrit, serum iron, and serum ferritin indexes of the rats in the Embodiment 1 group of the present invention were all significantly higher than those of the Comparative Example 1 to Comparative Example 3 groups and had substantially recovered to the levels of the normal control group. This demonstrates that the iron-supplement preparation of the present invention can efficiently correct iron-deficiency anemia, greatly improve the in-vivo utilization efficiency of iron, and exhibitsDESCRIPTION
