Swapnroop Pharma manufactures and supplies Pregelatinized Wheat Starch Pharmaceutical Excipient, a physically modified starch derived from wheat and used in pharmaceutical formulations, particularly solid oral dosage forms. Through controlled pregelatinization, wheat starch is processed to improve its functional properties, including binding, water absorption, swelling, compressibility and processing performance.
Pregelatinized Wheat Starch can function as a multifunctional pharmaceutical excipient, supporting tablet manufacturing as a binder, diluent and disintegration aid. Its functionality can make it suitable for formulation processes where improved powder handling and tablet performance are required.
Pregelatinized Wheat Starch is produced from wheat-derived starch through controlled physical treatment involving heat and moisture. The process modifies the starch granules and enhances their interaction with water.
It is generally supplied as a white to off-white powder and can be incorporated into pharmaceutical formulations using suitable direct-compression and granulation processes.
Because it is wheat-derived, source and allergen considerations should be evaluated according to the intended application and applicable regulatory requirements.
Pregelatinized Wheat Starch can be used in:
As a pharmaceutical excipient, Pregelatinized Wheat Starch can provide:
The performance of the material depends on the wheat starch source, degree of pregelatinization, moisture, particle-size distribution and specific pharmaceutical grade.
Swapnroop Pharma supplies Pregelatinized Wheat Starch Pharmaceutical Excipient for pharmaceutical manufacturers and formulation developers requiring a wheat-derived modified starch for solid dosage applications.
The material can be supplied according to the required pharmaceutical grade, specification and application, with applicable documentation such as CoA and SDS.
Pregelatinized Wheat Starch should be stored in tightly closed packaging in a cool, dry and clean environment, protected from excessive moisture, heat and contamination.
Bulk packaging options can be arranged according to customer requirements.
