SELF EMULSIFYING ANHYDROUS DISPERSION SYSTEM (SeADS)

PCT IT2009/000373 (PATENT ISSUED)

THE MAJOR CHALLENGE IN DEVELOPING A PRODUCT:
ACTIVE INGREDIENTS SOLUBILITY

It often happens that the substances delivered in a product are not very stable in water, for example when live probiotic microorganisms should be delivered in a liquid dosage form, which is notoriously the most difficult in terms of probiotics survival.

OUR SOLUTION IS

A LIQUID OILY DISPERSION OF PROBIOTICS SUITABLE FOR

DELIVERING A GOOD QUANTITY OF LIVE CELLS
(UP TO 1 BLN CFU PER DROP)

CREATING A COMPLETELY ANHYDROUS SYSTEM, WHICH IS SUITABLE FOR THE SURVIVAL OF MICROORGANISMS

CREATING A STABLE AND READY-MADE PRODUCT WITHOUT ADDING FURTHER EXCIPIENTS

DELIVERABLE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS

Lactobacillus rhamnosus

Lactobacillus reuterii

LIVE PROBIOTICS

PHARMACEUTICAL FORM
OILY LIQUID DROPS

THANKS TO THIS PHARMACEUTICAL FORM IT IS POSSIBLE TO:
Disperse and deliver live probiotic cells
Increase their survival in the gastric environment
Easily administer the product also to children
Mix the product with water to improve its palatability
