Definitions

  • the present invention relates to solid preparations of vitamin A in the form of beadlets which contain a high amount of vitamin A.
  • Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin, hence an essential nutrient.
  • Vitamin A encompasses a group of chemically related organic compounds that includes retinol, its esters, retinal (also known as retinaldehyde) and retinoic acid.
  • Vitamin A has multiple functions: essential in embryo development for growth, maintaining the immune system, and healthy vision, where it combines with the protein opsin to form rhodopsin - the light-absorbing molecule necessary for both low-light (scotopic vision) and colour vision.
  • Vitamin A is primarily used for animal feed, but also in food, in prescription medication and as dietary supplement. Most of the vitamin A in the market is produced synthetically.
  • Vitamin A is insoluble in water, however soluble in fats and oils.
  • an oil is not suitable for the use in various solid vitamin supplements such as dry premixes, food premixes and different forms of dietary supplements, especially tablets.
  • Beadlets are a special form of powder preparations. They have typically a core which contains an active, e. g. vitamin A and matrix materials and optionally a covering or coating, which reduces the sticking of the particles. Beadlets are usually obtained by providing an emulsion or dispersion of the respective active, here an emulsion of vitamin A, in water and/or a volatile organic solvent with a colloid, stirring/emulsifying it to the desired droplet size and then spray-drying the emulsion together with additional matrix material. Beadlets have typically a medium particle size (d(0,5)) in the range of 50 pm to 1000 pm, in particular 100 to 500 pm as determined by sieving according to European Pharmacopeia (Ph. Eur.).
  • d(0,5) medium particle size in the range of 50 pm to 1000 pm, in particular 100 to 500 pm as determined by sieving according to European Pharmacopeia (Ph. Eur.).
  • WO 2021/165288 describes powders of fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin A esters, which besides the fat soluble vitamin contain a hydrocolloid, a starch hydrolysate such as maltodextrin, tocopherol and sodium ascorbate.
  • the powders of WO 2021/165288 provide an improved stability to the vitamin A against degradation, in particular oxidative degradation due to the high amount of sodium ascorbate and tocopherol.
  • the stabilization of vitamin A provided by the powders of WO 2021/165288 in solid dosage forms, in particular in solid dosage forms obtained by compacting mixture of the powder with one or more excipients such as tablets is not entirely satisfactory.
  • the stability problem becomes even more prominent, when the content of the vitamin A in the beadlet core is 10% by weight or higher than 10% by weight, in particular at least 15% by weight.
  • vitamin A in solid dosage forms such as tablets can be further improved by providing beadlets containing a combination of isomalt and at least one protective colloid from the group of polysaccharides and modified polysaccharides.
  • modified polysaccharide means a polymer made of at least 3 saccharide units, in particular at least 5 saccharide unites (weight average), which are connected by glycosidic bonds, where at least a portion of the hydroxyl groups of the saccharide units have been etherified or esterified.
  • degree of substitution in the modified polysaccharide at most 3%, e. g. 0.5 to 3%, especially 1.5 to 2.5% with respect to the saccharide units, which means that on average at most 3 mol-%, e. g. 0.5 to 3 mol-%, especially 1.5 to 2.5 mol-% of saccharide units have been etherified or esterified.
  • the polysaccharides and modified polysaccharides suitable as protective colloids have a weight average molecular weight (Mw) in the range of 5,000 to 1 ,000,000 g/mol, in particular in the range of 20,000 to 300,000 g/mol, as determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) e. g. using i) a Suprema GPC column from the company Polymer Standards Service GmbH and ii) a MALS- as well as an Rl detector.

  • modified starches such as alkyl succinate modified starches and alkenyl succinate modified starches, dextrins, pectin, alginates, gums, such as gum arabic (synonym of acacia gum), guar gum,
