Enteric Gelatin Empty Capsules

Our Enteric Gelatin Hollow Capsules are specially designed for delayed-release applications, ensuring targeted drug delivery to the intestinal tract. These capsules resist dissolution in the acidic environment of the stomach (pH 1-3) and rapidly disintegrate in the higher pH conditions of the small intestine (pH ≥6.8).

Key Features & Benefits:
✔ Acid Resistance – Withstands gastric fluids for 2+ hours (USP/EP compliant)
✔ Precision Release – Consistent disintegration in intestinal conditions
✔ Pharma-Grade Gelatin – Derived from bovine/porcine sources (Halal/Kosher options available)
✔ GMP Manufacturing – Produced in ISO 9001 & cGMP-certified facilities
✔ Universal Compatibility – Suitable for fillers, pellets, and multiparticulate systems
Technical Specifications:

• Dissolution Profile:
• Gastric Phase (pH 1.2): ≤10% release in 2 hours
• Intestinal Phase (pH 6.8): ≥80% release in 45 minutes
• Size Range: 00# to 4# (custom lengths available)
• Low Moisture Content: ≤13% (ideal for hygroscopic APIs)

Applications:

• Probiotics & microbiome formulations
• NSAIDs and gastric-irritant drugs
