[nanoPost] Nanolipid Particles to mask the taste of sodium choloride in distilled water perpara

Company USA

Nanolipid Particles used in this study are safe and all-natural, marking the first successful testing of an all-natural integrated delivery system in taste-masking applications. Further benefits of using these proprietary Nanolipid Particles in taste-masking includes the high-loading capacity of passenger molecules, an optically clear appearance, the ability to control population size, a 60 nm to 150 nm range and a system that is inherently non-precipitating.

The company provides Nanolipid Particles integrated delivery system for OTC pharmaceuticals, beverage and nutricuetical applications via its state-of-the-art manufacturing and development facility. The company offers services not only to pharmaceuticals, beverage and nutricuetical developers, but also to the cosmeceutical, skincare and sun care industries.

An all-natural taste-masking system can assuage consumer-concerns over other taste-masking technologies. Current taste-masking technologies include using man-made resins that are insoluble, allowing the drug to bypass the mouth, be separated by gastrointestinal fluids and then these man-made insoluble resins pass through the GI tract. Coatings are also man-made and, while effective when used for pill-formulas, do not solve the taste-masking needs for liquids. Nanotechnology enables the delivery of unpleasant salts or other taste particles in an all-natural form that bypasses taste centers.

The Nanolipid Particles delivery has been test marketed in Sports Drinks in the USA and has proven to successfully mask the taste of salts within the drink formula.
