DELIVERY SYSTEMS OF HOMOGENEOUS THERMOREVERSIBLE LOW VISCOSITY POLYMANNAN GUM FILMS

摘要

The present invention is directed to a delivery system comprising a homogeneous, thermoreversible gel film, wherein the gel film comprises: (i) a film forming amount of low viscosity polymannan gum, e.g., low viscosity guar gum, and optionally at least one of a plasticizer, a second film former, a bulking agent, and a pH controlling agent; and (ii) an active substance. The present invention is also directed to a process for the manufacture thereof.
