WATER SOLUBLE DRY COMPOSITIONS

摘要

Defoaming agents capable of significantly inhibiting foaming occurring in re-dissolving dry compositions; and water soluble dry compositions containing these defoaming agents. The defoaming agents contain, as the essential component, hydrophobic amino acids appropriate for inhibiting foaming occurring in dissolving dry compositions containing saccharides. The water soluble dry compositions contain pharmacologically active proteinous substances, saccharides, and hydrophobic amino acids having a hydropathy index of at least about 2 and the content of the hydrophobic amino acids is about 0.05 % by weight or more but less than 40 % by weight based on the whole dry composition.
