No cross-linking reaction No Maillard reaction |
Cross-linking reaction: Lysine in the gelatin reacts with the aldehyde group in medicine powder, lowering the solubility. Maillard reaction: amine-group compounds (amino acid and protein) react with carboxides (reducing sugar), thus producing brown or even black macromolecular substances such as melanoidins through complicated process. |
Bacteria Breeding |
Hard to breed bacteria; No food additives |
Since gelatin is good culture medium for microbes, it is easy to breed bacteria in manufacturing and following process of Gelatin Capsule production. |
