The present disclosure relates to a resveratrol delivery system having modified resveratrol composition wherein the active ingredient is stable colloidal resveratrol nanoparticles in unconjugated form. The said composition and its process thereof can be used in numerous applications for treatment of a mammal susceptible to or afflicted with insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, aging, apoptosis, inflammation, stress resistance, cancer, cardiovascular disease, muscular dystrophy, low fertility rates or any combination thereof since the modified resveratrol composition has higher bioavailability and greater half-life.

Emerging evidence indicates that diminished activity of the vasoprotective axis of the renin-angiotensin system, constituting angiotensin converting enzyme2 (ACE2) and its enzymatic product, angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] contribute to pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, clinical success for long-term delivery of ACE2 or Ang-(1-7) would require stability and ease of administration to increase patient compliance. Chloroplast expression of therapeutic proteins enables their bioencapsulation within plant cells to protect from acids and gastric enzymes; fusion to a transmucosal carrier facilitates effective systemic absorption. Oral feeding of rats with bioencapsulated ACE2 or Ang-(1-7) attenuated monocrotaline (MCT)-induced increase in right ventricular systolic pressure, decreased pulmonary vessel wall thickness and improved right heart function in both prevention and reversal protocols. Furthermore, combination of ACE2 and Ang-(1-7) augmented the beneficial effects against cardio-pulmonary pathophysiology induced by MCT administration.

Experiments have also been performed which indicate that this approach is also suitable for the treatment or inhibition of experimental uveitis and autoimmune uveoretinitis These studies provide proof-of-concept for a novel low-cost oral ACE2 or Ang-(1-7) delivery system using transplastomic technology for pulmonary and ocular disease therapeutics.

The present disclosure relates to a taste-masking microcapsule composition. The composition comprises a core portion encapsulated by a shell portion. The core portion comprises an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and one or more excipients. The shell portion comprises a hydrophobic matrix and a pH-responsive material. The microcapsule compositions prevent API release at the more neutral pH levels in the oral cavity, but upon exposure to pH levels of the stomach, the pH-responsive material becomes soluble thereby permitting release of the API.

The present invention relates to a preparation method for a traditional Chinese medicine drop pill and a traditional Chinese medicine micro drop pill prepared by using the method, and in particular, the present invention relates to a micro drop pill preparation method with high drug-loading capacity, simple preparation process and high production rate and a micro drop pill prepared by using the method. Specially, The drop pill preparation method used comprises the following steps: (1) material melting step: heat melting a medicine and a drop pill matrix to obtain a molten medicine liquid; (2) dropping step: delivering the molten medicine liquid to a dripper, and acquiring medicine drops of the molten medicine liquid by means of vibration dropping; and, (3) condensation step: cooling the medicine drops with a cooling gas to obtain micro drop pills.

The present invention relates to a new formulation of specific nutritional ingredients (nutraceuticals) and/or pharmaceutical compounds.

Provided are pharmaceutical compositions and methods for preparing pharmaceutical compositions using solventless mixing methods. Excess coating material that is not bound to a coated API particle may be removed by a sieving process. Coating and dosing ratios can also be optimized to minimize the amount of excess unbound coating material. Specifically, a coating ratio and/or a dosing ratio can be used to minimize the residual amount of excess unbound coating material to minimize agglomeration of coating material during storage. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutical composition is provided, the pharmaceutical composition comprising: 65-85% w/w API particles; 15-30% w/w coating material coating the API particles; and 3-15% w/w matrix surrounding the coated API particles, wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises a disintegration time rate of less than 10 seconds for at least six months under storage conditions of at least 25° C. and at least 60% relative humidity.

The present invention relates to capsules comprising a peptide, lecithin, alginate, and divalent metal cation, compositions comprising said capsules, use thereof in cosmetic treatments, as well as methods of obtaining said capsules.

Provided is an organic solvent-free method for producing a plurality of microsphere having an average diameter of less than 500 μm in diameter and having average contact angle θc greater than 140°, consisting essentially of a biocompatible hot-melt carrier vehicle and a payload substance to be delivered, including melting and mixing a polymer carrier vehicle which is solid at room temperature and at least one payload substance, and dispensing microportions of the molten mixture through a droplet-forming space onto a cooled solid superoleophobic surface.

The invention is directed to a microcapsule and the method to obtain it. The microcapsule comprises a core in the form of a lipid sphere coated by a protein film, wherein the lipid sphere comprises sporulated microorganisms and at least one lipid wall material, and the protein film is a mix of carbohydrate, protein material and water. The method to obtain this microcapsule includes the stages of mixing sphere components, mixing protein film components, homogenizing the protein film and the subsequent coating of the lipid sphere by means of fluidization with the protein film.
