Vegetable Capsule
Hypromellose is a derivative of plant fiber, primarily composed of plant cell walls and polysaccharides. It has a very stable molecular structure and excellent film-forming properties.
Three Key Features of Plant-Based Capsules:
- Safety
Because hypromellose is derived from non-GMO plants, commonly known as plant-derived empty capsules, its residue of harmful substances is far lower than traditional gelatin empty capsules. It does not contain proteins or amino acids, and coupled with a special manufacturing process, bacterial contamination is difficult, eliminating concerns about chloroethanol residue, making it safer.
- Stability
Hypromellose empty capsules have a water content between 5% and 7%, and can even reach 3%, making them suitable for filling various contents. This ensures no cross-linking reactions. Due to its stable molecular structure, it is more suitable for filling oxygen-sensitive and fast-release drugs, making the contents safer, dissolution more complete, and therapeutic effects more significant.
- Versatility
Hypromellose empty capsules have low moisture content and a stable molecular structure, making them particularly suitable for filling traditional Chinese medicine preparations. The product has less stringent requirements for storage, transportation, environment, and region compared to gelatin empty capsules, and can meet the requirements of various contents. Because it is made from plant fiber, it has no side effects on the human body and provides a new option for vegetarians and people of different religious beliefs.
