Contract manufacturer Aenova recently launched new softgel capsules which can contain probiotics which can be released in the gut. The product, developed at the company’s Swiss site in Kirchberg, can contain living bacteria or yeasts, combining the advantages of easy-to-swallow softgels with the health benefits of probiotics.
Probiotics, beneficial gut bacteria, are commonly administered when the balance of bacteria in the gut has been disrupted, and certain species and strains of bacteria have been studied for their efficacy in conditions including irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, diarrhea, and more.
After being stored inside of the capsules under special conditions, the microorganisms show activity and growth after production and storage, Aenova reports. Therefore, the viability of contained beneficial bacteria and yeasts is assured.
“Following our mission we pride ourselves on delivering innovative products and services to healthcare customers that improve and extend patients’ lives,” Dr. Christian Luftensteiner, managing director of Aenova’s site at Kirchberg, said. “In our Center of Excellence for soft capsules we apply decades of know-how and most modern infrastructure to provide impeccable quality to our customers worldwide.”
