Capsule-filling machines are affixed with a cleaning vacuum that removes any extraneous material from the capsules as they exit the equipment. Soft gelatin capsules are Used to encapsulate and hermetically seal liquids, suspensions, pasty materials, dry powders and even performed tablets.

powder maybe bitter or otherwise unpalatable and should be removed before packaging or dispensing. Small Scale may be cleaned individually or in small numbers by rubbing them with a clean gauze or cloth. Large Scale capsule-filling machines are affixed with a cleaning vacuum that removes any extraneous material from the capsules as they exit the equipment. Accela-Cota Apparatus - equipment use in cleaning and polishing of filled hard capsules. Made of gelatin, glycerin or a polyhydric alcohol such as sorbitol Contain more moisture than hard capsules May have a preservative, such as methylparaben and/or propylparaben, to retard microbial growth May be oblong, oval, or round. Single colored or two toned May be imprinted with identifying markings As with hard gelatin capsules, they maybe prepared with opaquants to reduce transparency and render characteristic features to the capsule shell Used to encapsulate and hermetically seal liquids, suspensions, pasty materials, dry powders and even performed tablets Pharmaceutically elegant Easily swallowed Plate Process using set of molds to form the capsules. - A warm sheet of plain or colored gelatin is placed on the bottom plate of the mold - Medication liquid is evenly poured - Second sheet of gelatin is carefully placed on top and the top plate is put into place - Pressure is then applied to the mold to form, fill and seal the capsules Rotary Die Process or Reciprocating Die Process capsules are filled and sealed in a continuous operation Rotary Die Process most soft gelatin capsules are prepared by this process - Liquid gelatin flowing from an overhead tank into continuous ribbons - Metered fill material is injected between the ribbons - The dies form pockets of the gelatin ribbons - These pockets of fill containing gelatin are sealed by pressure and heat and then severed from ribbons
Reciprocating Die Process similar to rotary die process but it differs in actual encapsulating process - The gelatin ribbons are fed between a set of vertical dies that continually open and close to form rows of pockets in the gelatin ribbons - Pockets filled with medication - Sealed, shaped and cut out of the film - The capsules are cut from the ribbons
Water-immiscible volatile and non-volatile liquids (vegetable and aromatic oils, aromatic and aliphatic hydro carbons, etc.) Water-miscible non volatile liquids (polyethylene glycols, and nonionic surface active agents, such as polysorbate 80 Water miscible and relatively non volatile compounds (propylene glycol and isopropyl alcohol) Liquids that can easily migrate through shell are not suitable for soft gelatin capsule (water above 5% and low- molecular-weight-water-soluble and volatile organic compounds Solids may be encapsulated into soft gelatin capsules as solutions in a liquid solvents, suspensions, dry powder, granules, pellets or small tablets ADDED SUBSTANCES -Substances added to official preparations including capsules may be use only if they 1. Are harmless in the quantities used 2. Do not exceed the minimum amounts required to provide their intended effect 3. Do not impair the products bioavailability, therapeutic efficacy, or safety 4. Do not interfere with requisite compendial assays and tests CONTAINERS FOR DISPENSING CAPSULES - Depending on the item, the container may be required to be tight, well-closed, light- resistant, and/or all of these DISINTEGRATION TEST FOR CAPSULES - Capsules are placed in the basket rack assembly which is immersed 30 times per minute into thermostatically controlled fluid at 37C - To satisfy the test, the capsules disintegrate completely into a soft mass having no palpably firm core and only some fragments of the gelatin shell DISSOLUTION TEST FOR CAPSULES - The empty capsule shells dissolved in the dissolution medium before proceeding with the sampling and chemical analysis WEIGHT VARIATION - The uniformity of dosage units may be demonstrated by determining weight variation and/or content uniformity HARD CAPSULES - Individually weighed ad contents removed. Net weight of the contents is calculated by subtraction SOFT CAPSULES - gross weight is determined individually. Each capsule is cut open and the contents are removed by washing with a suitable solvent
CONTENT UNIFORMITY - The amount of active ingredient , determined by assay, is within the range of 85% to 115% of the label claim for 9 days of 10 dosage units assayed, with no unit outside the range of 70% to 125% of the label claim CONTENT LABELING REQUIREMENT - All official capsules must be labeled to express the quantity of each active ingredient in each dosage unit STABILITY TESTING - Help determine the appropriate conditions for storage and the products anticipated shell life MOISTURE PERMEATION TEST - To ensure the suitability of single-unit and unit-dose containers for packaging capsules
Approximately 200 officially recognized medications in capsule form are listed in the USP. However, many times this number of capsule products are available from various manufactures for various drugs and in various dosage strengths.
