Palatinit's (Morris Plains, NJ, www.palatinit.com) "galenIQ" is line of multifunctional excipients that offer the combined advantages of other bulk excipients.
galenIQ is a disaccharide alcohol based on hydrogenated isomaltulose (HI). galenIQ is exclusively derived from sucrose in a two-stage production process and is a white, odorless, water-soluble, crystalline substance that complies with the isomalt monographs of the current Ph Eur, BP, and USP29-NF24.
According to Palatinit, the combination of low hygroscopicity and anti-caking property can ease production processes such as mixing, agglomeration, or tableting, and can reduce the need for costly protective packaging.
