3. Pullulan Capsules have only three ingredients: Pullulan, water, and gellan gum (1%) Cultured and fermented Natural Product: Vegan, Vegetarian, No animal products No preservatives, additives, gluten or GMO Halal and Kosher certified.

Pullulan is a Biopolymer material. It is a Polysaccharide produced by the fermentation of carbohydrate (like starch/sugar) by the fungus Aureobasidium Pullulan. Its polysaccharides are water soluble by nature, through fermentation which makes it a Pullulan. Capsule Connection Pullulan makes an excellent capsule material because of its outstanding film-forming properties and good plasticity.

Gellan gum is a water-soluble anionic polysaccharide produced by the bacterium Sphingomonas elodea. The gellan-producing bacterium was discovered and isolated in 1978 from lily plant tissue from a natural pond in Pennsylvania.

Safety Information:
Keep capsules out of direct sunlight, hot water and high temperatures. Capsule content depends on the density, concentration and the amount of the powder filled.

FILLING OILS?
While capsules are made to fill powders, many customers have used them for years to fill liquids. Note that water causes the capsule material to soften and dissolve. So any capsules filled with a liquid that contains water must be consumed promptly.
We have a Liquid Sealing/Drying Accessory Kit (listed under Accessories). Using this kit with your Capsule Machine will allow you to seal and dry 24 capsules at a time.
