(Sweetening Agent / Stabilizing Agent)
by Muby Chem
Muby Chem operates a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility specializing in the production of high-purity Mannitol widely recognized for its effectiveness and diverse applications in the pharma industry.
Our state-of-the-art technology guarantees uniformity and consistency in Mannitol production optimizing its role as a high-performance firming agent in pharma applications.
Application: MOLHOL® MAN imparts a mild sweetness, approximately half as sweet as sucrose, with a low glycemic index. It serves as a bulking and filler agent in tablets and capsules, improving compressibility and dosage uniformity for APIs. It also helps maintain the structural integrity of proteins and peptides by preventing denaturation and aggregation. MOLHOL® MAN is used as a carrier in inhaled formulations, including bronchial challenge tests for asthma diagnosis. It is also employed in diagnostic tests to assess kidney function.
