A method of producing coated microcapsules comprises the steps of producing microcapsules by cold gelation having a denatured or hydrolysed protein matrix and an active agent contained within the matrix, and drying the microcapsules. A meltable coating composition comprising wax and oil and configured to have a melting point of about 70° C. to about 100° C. is heated to a temperature above the melting point of the meltable coating composition to melt the meltable coating composition, and the microcapsules are coated with the melted meltable coating composition

The invention relates to a gel-chewable dosage form comprising a first active pharmaceutical ingredient encapsulated in a lipid material that is embedded in the gel-chewable dosage form and wherein the gel-chewable dosage form comprises at least a second active pharmaceutical ingredient as well as a method of treating a subject suffering from a disease or disorder in the gastro intestinal tract using the gel-chewable dosage form.

An article of manufacture is described comprising the combination of an adjunct material and a delivery particle. The delivery particle comprising a benefit agent core material and a shell encapsulating the core material is described, along with a process for forming such a delivery particle and articles of manufacture. The shell is the reaction product of: i) an isocyanate or acid chloride or acrylate with ii) an amine-containing natural material having free amino moieties, and iii) an α, β-unsaturated compound, the α, β-unsaturated compound forming C—N covalent bonds with the amine moieties of the natural material. The delivery particle of the invention has improved release characteristics, with enhanced degradation characteristics in OECD test method 301B.
