Gelatin capsule shell: Mainly made of animal leather. There have been toxic capsule accidents before, so there are fewer people on the market now, so you need to buy them carefully;
Starch capsule shell: Mainly made of cassava starch. The main difference with gelatin is that you don't have to worry about poison capsule accidents, so it is relatively safe to eat.
You can look at the empty capsules of Erkang starch. I hope my answer is helpful to you.
Question 2: What is the capsule skin made of? 1. There are several kinds of capsule skins, one is gelatin capsule skin and the other is starch capsule skin;
1, gelatin capsule skin: mainly made of animal leather. Poisoned capsules occurred in 12 years, so be cautious when purchasing;
2. Starch capsule skin: The capsule skin mainly made of plant starch is much safer than gelatin capsule skin, but you still need to be careful when purchasing, so as not to be deceived. It's best to choose a bigger brand.
Second, the main characteristics of starch capsule skin
(1) 100% natural cassava starch.
Starch capsules are made of 100% natural cassava starch and proper amount of purified water through a special process, and do not contain any chemical additives and preservatives.
(2) No animal-borne infectious diseases.
No animal-derived substances and animal protein are added in the production, which completely eliminates the potential safety hazards caused by mad cow disease and poison capsules.
(3) Non-transgenic
The starch used in the production does not use genetically modified varieties, and the raw materials are strictly controlled, and it has passed the international SGS non-genetically modified certification.
(4) No pesticide residue
Cassava, the raw material used in the production, is imported from Cambodia, and no pesticides are used in the organic planting process. At the same time, advanced technology is adopted in the production process to further ensure that the products are free of pesticide residues.
(5) No carcinogen residue.
Strictly control the production conditions, never use ethylene oxide to sterilize the products, and there will be no carcinogen residue.
(6) Take care of the stomach
Taking powder directly is easy to burn esophagus and gastric mucosa and cause ulcer. Some powders are too big, which are easy to choke into trachea and corrode trachea mucosa. Using empty starch capsules as carriers can protect the stomach and intestines well.
(7) no cross-linking reaction with drugs
Starch is a substance with stable molecular structure, which will not cross-link with aldehyde groups or other compounds to prevent internal substances from deteriorating and cross-linking due to capsules.
(8) The drug utilization rate and absorption effect are good.
The effective components in starch are more helpful to stimulate the activity of powder, which is beneficial to human absorption and increase the use efficiency of precious Chinese herbal medicines.
(9) It is easy to be accepted by people of special culture.
The raw material of empty starch capsules is pure starch, which is more in line with the eating habits of people with special religious beliefs and vegetarians. Products have passed the European Vegetarian Association certification, * * * certification and kosher certification.
(10) Easy to store and carry.
Starch hollow capsules have low requirements on temperature and humidity, and can be stored and carried under normal conditions.
Third, the delivery process.
BC 1500, the first empty capsule was born in Egypt;
1846, two-stage hard capsule manufacturing technology was patented in France;
1874, Detroit began the industrial manufacture of hard capsules, and introduced various models at the same time;
193 1 year, large-scale production of empty capsules began, accounting for 70% of all kinds of drugs;
During the period of 1986, the outbreak of mad cow disease from Britain to Europe made gelatin capsules fall into an unprecedented crisis of confidence, and people began to look for plant materials to replace gelatin.
During the period of 1997, Pfizer introduced two kinds of plant hollow capsules. Hollow capsules made of hydroxypropyl cellulose-which is not conducive to human digestion, but made of pullulan-are extremely expensive and the technology is very complicated. Experts in the industry agree that starch, as three essential nutrients for human beings, is the best raw material for producing plant hollow capsules.
In 2000, hollow starch capsules were formed, but due to the technical problems of starch fluidity, formability and properties, it has been impossible to realize industrial production.
In 2004, Hunan Erkang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. started the research and development project of starch capsules;
In 20 13, Erkang Pharmaceutical, together with senior scholars from Australia and Canada, took the lead in overcoming a number of core technical difficulties and realized the industrialization of empty starch capsules.
In 20 14, the world's first empty starch capsule industrial park was built in Liuyang Biomedical Park.
In 20 15, erkang starch hollow capsules will be fully sold and become the largest professional supplier of starch hollow capsules in the world.
Fourthly, compared with gelatin (the terminator of poison capsules)
20 12 April 15 CCTV Weekly Quality Report and Oriental Time and Space Report, some gelatin production enterprises used quicklime to decolorize and bleach leather scraps, and then boiled them into industrial gelatin and sold them to Zhejiang Xinchang Medicine.
Capsule manufacturers eventually flow to pharmaceutical companies. Through investigation, it was found that the content of heavy metal chromium in capsules used by 9 pharmaceutical factories 13 batches of drugs exceeded the standard, among which the content exceeded the standard the most. & gt
Question 3: What is the composition of capsule shell? First, there are several kinds of capsule shell, one is gelatin capsule shell and the other is starch capsule shell;
1. Gelatin capsule shell: mainly made of animal leather. 12 had a toxic capsule incident, so be cautious when purchasing;
2. Starch capsule shell: capsule shell with plant starch as the main raw material is much safer than gelatin capsule shell, but you still need to be careful when purchasing, so as not to be deceived. It's best to choose a bigger brand.

Question 5: What is capsule shell made of? The most commonly used hollow capsules in medical capsules are gelatin capsules, including stomach-soluble capsules and enteric-coated capsules. Enteric-coated hollow capsules are made of gelatin and enteric materials. Unqualified capsule shell with specific color (can be specially prepared according to user's needs) and shape is harmful to some extent.
Question 6: How to tell whether capsule shell is industrial gelatin can only be recognized by professional machines. But we can make a simple distinction from the material, dyeing and technology of capsules. There are three differences between industrial gelatin capsules and medical gelatin capsules:
First, the quality of capsules made of general industrial gelatin is relatively poor and brittle. Some capsules break when pinched, or when opened, they break when touched.
Second, the brighter the color of capsules, the more attention should be paid. Because edible gelatin is transparent or white, with few impurities and purity. However, there are many impurities in industrial gelatin, and manufacturers will add more flavors, dyes and colorants to cover up the impurities.
3. Generally speaking, the process of making capsules with industrial gelatin is not as advanced as that of professional medicinal capsules, so the fit between the two mouths of capsules is not high. If it is found that the capsule mouth is easy to loosen and unscrew, then the capsule is made of industrial gelatin. More likely.
Question 7: What is capsule shell made of? How can we tell whether capsule shell is good or bad? The capsule shell is made of gelatin. Generally, good gelatin raw materials are refined from fresh cowhide or pigskin. How to tell the good from the bad in capsule shell? Chemical analysis: Bad capsule shell will contain heavy metal chromium, but good will not. Physical analysis: good elasticity, clear capsule shell, good transparency and no impurities.
Question 8: What is capsule shell made of? Is Starch capsule shell Healthy? There are many kinds in capsule shell, including gelatin capsule shell and starch capsule shell, also known as empty starch capsules.
Gelatin capsule shell: Mainly made of animal leather. There have been toxic capsule accidents before, so there are fewer people on the market now, so you need to buy them carefully;
Starch capsule shell: Mainly made of cassava starch. The main difference with gelatin is that you don't have to worry about poison capsule accidents, so it is relatively safe to eat.
You can look at the empty capsules of Erkang starch. I hope my answer is helpful to you.
