Pullulan Capsules Industry Knowledge Extension

What raw materials are empty pullulan capsules made of?
Empty pullulan capsules are made from a natural polymer called pullulan, which is derived from starch. Pullulan is a water-soluble, tasteless, and odorless polysaccharide produced by the fermentation of tapioca or corn starch by the fungus Aureobasidium pullulans.
The production process of amylopectin includes the following steps:
Starch is enzymatically hydrolyzed into glucose.
The glucose is then fermented by the fungus Aureobasidium pullulans.
Amylopectin is then harvested from the fermentation broth and purified.
Once pullulan is purified, it can be used to make pullulan empty capsules. These capsules are usually made by mixing pullulan with water to form a viscous solution, which is then shaped into a capsule shell using a molding process. The obtained capsules were transparent, odorless and tasteless.
Empty pullulan capsules are a vegetarian alternative to gelatin capsules, which are made from animal-sourced collagen. They are suitable for vegans, vegetarians and those avoiding animal products. Additionally, pullulan capsules are stable, safe and environmentally friendly, making them ideal for those looking for a more sustainable and natural alternative to traditional capsules.
Are empty pullulan capsules safe?
Yes, Pullulan capsules are generally considered safe for consumption. Amylopectin is a natural polymer derived from starch that is considered non-toxic and biodegradable. It has been approved as a safe food and drug ingredient by various regulatory agencies around the world, including the US FDA.
Pullulan capsules are also vegan-friendly and do not contain any animal products, making them ideal for vegetarians or vegans.
However, it is important to note that, like any other supplement or drug, there may be some potential risks associated with the use of pullulan capsules. For example, some people may be allergic to pullulan or to other ingredients used in the manufacture of the capsules. Also, improper use or storage of capsules may lead to contamination or other problems.
Always follow the directions carefully and consult a healthcare professional or pharmacist before using pullulan capsules. They can provide guidance on proper dosage, storage, and any potential interactions or risks associated with using the capsules.
Are empty pullulan capsules vegetable capsules?
Yes, empty pullulan capsules are considered vegetable capsules. They're made from a natural polymer called pullulan, which is derived from starch and made by the fungus Aureobasidium pullulans by fermenting tapioca or cornstarch.
Unlike gelatin capsules made from collagen of animal origin, pullulan capsules are suitable for vegetarians and vegans. They are clear, odorless and tasteless, making them a safe and natural alternative to traditional capsules.
Pullulan capsules are also stable and moisture resistant, which helps protect the capsule contents from degradation. They are used in dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, and other purposes, and are available in a variety of sizes.
Overall, pullulan capsules are a popular choice for those who are looking for a greener and sustainable option for their capsules. They are considered safe to eat and are widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
