PLANTAIN-HYDROCOLLOID RUBBER COMPOSITION

摘要

PURPOSE: To provide powder contg. Plantaginis Semen particles which exhibits excellent dispersibility and is usable as a laxative and fiber supplement by coating the particles of Plantaginis Semen having a capacity to be substantially expanded when taken in with gum arabic. CONSTITUTION: The Plantaginis Semen particles are prepd. and a fluidized bed is formed by fluidizing the Plantaginis Semen particles with air. An effect. amt. of an aq. soln. of the gum arabic is then prepd. and the many droplets of this aq. soln. are added to the fluidized bed to coat the particles with the aq. gum arabic soln. The Plantaginis Semen particles coated with the gum arabic are usable as the laxative and more particularly constipation therapeutic medicine and fiber supplement and may be rapidly dispersed. The Plantaginis Semen particles are recommended to be coated with the gum arabic soln. so as to be uniformly distributed with the gum arabic soln. The coating is preferably so executed that the powder having such grain size distribution, moisture and bulk density as to improve the water dispersibility of the Plantaginis Semen.
