MODIFIED STARCH AS A REPLACEMENT FOR GELATIN IN SOFT GEL FILMS AND CAPSULES

Film-forming compositions are disclosed that can comprise, on a dry solid basis, 25 to 75 percent by weight of certain starch derivatives having a DE less than about 1,25 to 75 % plasticizer, and 0.1 to 15 % hydrocolloid gum. The starch derivatives can be chemically modified starches which range in...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Film-forming compositions are disclosed that can comprise, on a dry solid basis, 25 to 75 percent by weight of certain starch derivatives having a DE less than about 1,25 to 75 % plasticizer, and 0.1 to 15 % hydrocolloid gum. The starch derivatives can be chemically modified starches which range in molecular weight from 100,000 to 2,000,000. These starch-based systems can completely replace gelatin in edible film-forming applications such as soft and hard gel capsules. L'invention concerne des compositions permettant de former des films. Ces compositions peuvent comprendre, sur une base solide sèche, 25 à 75 % en poids de certains dérivés d'amidon à équivalent dextrose inférieur à environ 1, 25 à 75 % de plastifiant, et 0,1 à 15 % de gomme hydrocolloïdale. Les dérivés d'amidon peuvent être des amidons modifiés chimiquement dont le poids moléculaire est compris entre 100,000 et 2,000,000. Ces systèmes à base d'amidon peuvent remplacer complètement la gélatine dans des applications de formation de films comestibles tels que des capsules gélatineuses molles.
