Methods for identifying plant capsules and gelatin capsules

Plant capsule is a hollow capsule made of plant cellulose.

The plant capsule retains the advantages of the traditional gelatin capsule: it is convenient to take, effectively covers the taste and smell, and the contents are transparent and visible. In addition, compared with gelatin capsules, plant capsules have tight molecular structure, strong sealing, and are not easy to breathe, effectively avoiding oxidation reaction when medicine contacts with air; It is not easy to breed bacteria, and it is not necessary to add carcinogens such as ethylene oxide, or to irradiate and sterilize.

The plant capsules are all made of plant ingredients, which are harmless to the body. At the same time, they also contain nutrients, and have curative effects on diabetes and hypertension. As a new technology, the production of plant capsules adopts the international standard. Here are two simple methods to distinguish between plant capsules and gelatin capsules:

Method 1: About 1L of water cup and normal temperature water

Method 2: Lighter, tweezers, asbestos paper

1. Observe the dissolution in cold water: put the two kinds of capsules in cold water at 25 ℃, and the gelatin capsules gradually expand and become insoluble; The plant capsule gradually dissolves.

2. Observe the burning phenomenon: burn the two capsules separately. The plant capsule produces the smell of burning cotton, and the gelatin capsule produces the smell of burning protein.
