Pullulan Capsules Benefits and Uses
Pullulan is not produced by chemical modification, and is therefore 100% natural, unlike standard vegetarian capsules made from the synthetic cellulose based material HPMC. Our LiftMode Pullulan Capsules are available in size 00 and size I.
Pullulan Capsules have the following unique features:
Excellent oxygen barrier: these capsules protect 250 times better against oxidation than HPMC capsules and 9 times better than gelatin capsules.
Non-hygroscopic: the likelihood of a potential crosslinking with encapsulated substances is significantly reduced.
These two important properties guarantee superior protection of encapsulated substances and can prolong the shelf life of the capsules considerably. Furthermore they exhibit a very high transparency.
Pullulan Capsules are especially suitable to protect sensitive nutraceuticals like plant extracts or anti-oxidants.
