RESEARCH REPORT ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF CAPSULE DOSAGE FORM TECHNOLOGY FOR LECTIN

Abstract

This study is aimed at developing the composition and manufacturing technology of a capsule dosage form containing lectin obtained from Phaseolus vulgaris. The physicochemical and pharmaceutical-technological properties of the lectin substance were investigated, including particle size distribution, flowability, bulk density, hygroscopicity, and angle of repose. Due to the high hygroscopicity and insufficient technological characteristics of the initial substance, various excipients were selected to improve the quality of the encapsulated mass.
