Liposome Formulation for Food Industry

Liposome-based microencapsulation technology employs edible and biocompatible materials, such as biopolymer matrices sugars, starches, gums, proteins, synthetic materials, dextrins, and alginates. These materials are currently utilized in the food and pharmaceutical industries. CD Formulation has effectively addressed different challenges commonly encountered by functional ingredients in practical applications, including the instability of natural antioxidants, poor bioavailability, limited water solubility, oxidation of functional oils, unfavorable taste, and difficulties in premixing. This is achieved through the utilization of proprietary liposome technologies.

Advantages of Liposomes in Food Industry

• Precise Delivery Through the Intestinal Barrier. Liposomes possess the capability to transport bioactive substances and enhance their permeability across the gastrointestinal barrier, thus serving as an effective carrier for delivering such substances. Additionally, they shield the active compounds from oxidation and degradation caused by the acidic pH in the stomach.
• Improved Bioavailability. Increased absorption and bioavailability compared to free and other traditional drug carriers (i.e., tablets, suspensions, and capsules).
• Enhancing the Dissolvability of Insoluble and Hyposoluble Raw Materials. By converting oil-soluble unstable components into solid powder form, the solubility of the product can be improved, thereby facilitating its dissolution, storage, and transportation.
• Powerful Protection. Liposomes have a unique structure that encases vitamins, minerals, and herbs in a protective barrier, helping nutrients survive digestion to reach and be absorbed by cells.
• Flavor Agents Encapsulation. It conceals the aromas and astringency of certain flavoring agents.

Main Applications of Liposomes in Food Industry

Liposomes can serve as carriers and active agents for food ingredients, facilitating their stable absorption by the human body. Our liposomes distinguish themselves from conventional ones due to their compatibility with diverse food types. Our liposome manufacturing technology supports a variety of health supplement formulations, including tablets, capsules, drops, powder, and beverages.

Applications	Case Studies
Health Care Products	Case 1 -Dietary supplement containing R-alpha-lipoic acid The utilization of liposome encapsulation technology can improve the absorption and bioavailability of R-alpha-lipoic acid in the formulation. Case 2-Adult Liposomal Vitamin C Beverage The powerful combination of sunflower lecithin and vitamin C plays a crucial role in enhancing the body's absorption of vitamin C, as sunflower lecithin is an important component of cell membranes A high encapsulation rate ensures the stability of liquid vitamin C, thereby enhancing its potent antioxidant properties.
Fruit Juice Jelly & Gummy Bear	Case 3-Liposomal Vitamin Gummies High-Strength Liposome Vitamin C Gummy Bears utilize liposomal encapsulation to enhance the absorption of vitamin C by the body while being devoid of artificial colors and flavors.
Drinks	Case 3-Liposomal Glutathione Drink Active Ingredients. Reduced l-glutathione, Potassium Sorbate, Lecithin, Glycerin, etc. The most recent research indicates an increased absorption rate and enhanced activity of immune cells.
Food Materials	Case 3- Natural Vitamin E Powder It is suitable for use in dietary supplements and animal feed. It can be incorporated into hard capsules, tablets, and other formulations. This innovative form of vitamin E enhances absorption and stability, departing from traditional shapes.
