Sugar Spheres SUGAR SPHERES
SPRAYSPHERESâ„¢ - SS
Cores for Controlled – Release Formulations
Sugar Spheres Definitions:
• SPRAYSPHERES™ - SS contains not more than 92 percent of sucrose. Calculated on the dried basis. The dried basis. The remainder consists of corn starch as per the European Pharmacopoeia. • Compliance with Ph. Eur., USP/ NF and JP. • Produced in accordance with the cGMP.
Sugar Spheres Particle size specifications:
Particle size distribution (analyzed by laser diffraction) shows the symmetrical character of the distribution. The single model profile, associated a very homogeneous population of SPRAYSPHERESâ„¢ - SS.
Sugar Spheres Application:
Used as cores to be coated in the manufacture of dry pharmaceutical forms especially for controlled release & specially formulations.
SPRAYSPHERESâ„¢ - SP:
Speciality Products
Definition:
SPRAYSPHERESâ„¢ - SP base of sugar spheres and microcrystalline spheres coated with cationic polymers.
Application:
• Suitable for very low / high dosage forms and for drugs with a low therapeutic margin.
• Fillers for Dispersible Tablets.
• Used as cores to be coated in the manufacture of highly hygroscopic / soluble drugs / unstable drug.
• Using SPRAYSPHERES™ - Sp products are interesting into a transfer strategy of capsule with pellets to tablets.
