Swapnroop Pharma manufactures and supplies Pregelatinized Starch Pharmaceutical Excipient, a physically modified starch widely used in pharmaceutical formulations, particularly in solid oral dosage forms. Pregelatinized starch is produced by treating starch with controlled heat and moisture to partially or completely gelatinize the starch granules and improve their functional performance.
As a multifunctional pharmaceutical excipient, Pregelatinized Starch can provide binding, diluent, disintegration, water-absorption and compressibility properties. It is therefore useful in tablet and capsule manufacturing where good powder processing and formulation performance are required.
Pregelatinized Starch is derived from starch obtained from suitable botanical sources such as maize, potato, rice or other approved starch sources, depending on the product grade.
The pregelatinization process modifies the physical characteristics of native starch and can improve its ability to interact with water, support tablet binding and contribute to dosage-form disintegration.
It is generally supplied as a white to off-white powder suitable for pharmaceutical formulation applications.
Pregelatinized Starch can be used in:
As a pharmaceutical excipient, Pregelatinized Starch can provide:
Its functional performance depends on the botanical source, degree of pregelatinization, particle size, moisture and pharmaceutical grade.
Swapnroop Pharma supplies Pregelatinized Starch Pharmaceutical Excipient for pharmaceutical manufacturers, formulation developers and nutraceutical companies.
The material can be supplied according to the required source, pharmaceutical grade, specification and application, with applicable documentation such as CoA and SDS.
