DESC:Technical field of the Invention:
The present invention relates to a stable, synergistic composition for enhancing the solubility/dispersibility, bioavailability and immediate release of active compounds. The present invention also relates to a process for preparation of said synergistic composition.
Background and Prior art of the Invention:
Natural products and extracts of natural products have a wide range of applications in food, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries. Most of the crude natural extracts are in viscous liquid form compared to the highly purified extracts and are very difficult to handle while formulating or manufacturing. It also cost a lot to the manufacturer in terms of product loss and other cleaning and processing expenses. However, these crude liquid extracts contain several synergistic active compounds as compared to their purified versions and may have higher safety and synergistic efficacy. On the other hand, the purified extracts are hydrophobic in nature and not soluble/dispersible in aqueous phase. Hence, formulating them into beverages and ready to drink beverages is difficult.
Currently, conventional methods such as plating and encapsulation are used to convert these crude liquid extracts into powders using excipients such as maltodextrin and acacia gum. The drawback of these technologies and excipients involve low actives loading efficiency leading to the products with very low content of actives and poor bioavailability. Many of the excipients are water insoluble and hence the finished products are not suitable for beverage application limiting their usage.
The dry extracts are not dispersible or soluble in the aqueous media and hence will have poor absorption in the gastro intestinal system, which will lead to lower efficacy.
Excipients such as maltodextrin has higher glycemic index and hence not suitable for people with diabetes as it may spike blood glucose levels. Certain ingredients of high oil absorption capacity such as silicon dioxides are limited in the products.
The gums and mucilage when used individually are low in oil absorption capacity and often leads to the unstable, poorly soluble, bioavailable and oily products with low actives. They are oily and hygroscopic which hampers their use in manufacturing the finished products or filling into the capsules etc.
Additionally, gums and mucilage will have limited application in enhancing the solubility/dispersion of the dry extracts with unacceptable solution/suspension stability.
Mucilage’s when used along with the active compounds will give high viscosity products which are difficult to dissolve in aqueous solutions making it unsuitable for supplement, food and beverage applications. This will lead very poor release of actives, poor bioavailability and reduced efficacy.
The extract loading capacity is the efficiency of the composition or an ingredient to convert liquid or oil or dry extract in to free flowing powder with high physico chemical properties such as free flowing, non-hygroscopic products with high actives and complete water solubility/dispersion. Although, many of the ingredients or excipients are having high oil absorption or loading capacity, they always lead to hygroscopic, oily, water insoluble, products with low suspension stability and poorly bioavailable products.
For better biological efficacy of the product, both the concentration of actives and its aqueous solubility/suspension with good stability are essential. Many of the products with low actives have to be dosed in higher quantities which is not acceptable to the general population and also may have side effects due to higher levels of excipients.
It is important to increase the oil or extract content in the product to have higher active without compromising the powder physical properties, water solubility/ dispersibility, stability and bioavailability. This will enable to reduce the daily dose without compromising the product efficacy. The product which are high in actives and having good flow properties are preferred over oily and products with low actives due to convenience and cost saving while manufacturing the finished products. These products will have higher efficacy due to high actives, quick release, complete water solubility/dispersibility, higher bioavailability and lower dose levels which are convenient to the consumers. This cannot be achieved using a single ingredient or excipient due to their inefficiency when used individually.
Surfactants/emulsifiers are used for enhancing the solubility or bioavailability but are least preferred in supplements or food product due their side effects.
There are some literatures that describe powder compositions with oily/liquid extracts.
US20110081330 discloses a composition comprising gum ghatti and one or more fat-soluble active ingredients, wherein the composition comprises less than 40 weight % oil, based on the total composition in dry matter. The said composition additionally comprises one or more oligosaccharides such as maltodextrin and said composition is used for the enrichment, fortification and/or coloration of food beverages, animal feed, cosmetics or pharmaceutical compositions.
US20080102131 disclose a particulate composition wherein an oil component (A) comprising a water-insoluble bioactive substance is poly-dispersed while forming a domain in a matrix comprising of a water-soluble excipient based on a water-soluble polymer, and wherein the sphericity of the particulate composition is not less than 0.9 micron and a method of producing the same.
However, none of the prior arts achieve the product which is high in active content along with additional characteristics such as non-hygroscopicity, high water solubility/dispersibility, enhanced bioavailability and quick release of active.
Achieving all these properties in single product without the use of any surfactants or synthetic emulsifiers, solvents, carrier oils is impossible. Hence, there is a need for the solution which can make the oily or hydrophobic molecules dispersible in aqueous media with additional benefits of high actives, non-hygroscopicity, quick release of active and higher absorption.
The present invention therefore aims to provide a solution that overcomes the problem of low actives content in the product, hygroscopicity, stability, water solubility/dispersibility, quick release, enhanced absorption of active from the product which are not recognized in the art. This remains the objective of the invention.
