Example 6

A highly concentrated iron formulation for use as an additive or dietary supplement in the treatment of anemia was prepared having the following ingredients:

ItemNameAmount [mg]
1.Purified soybean phosphatidylcholine220.0
3.Iron (III) diphosphate20.0
4.Vitamin E10.0
5.Phosphate buffer560.0
6.Natural aroma5.0
7.Sweetening substance5.0
Total:1000.0

The product was prepared by dissolving 220 mg Phospholipon 90G (Lipoid AG) in 180 mg propylene glycol (Chempur) and stirring this mixture (4 h, RT, 60 RPM) until a homogeneous lipid yellow solution was obtained. Said solution was mixed (12 h, RT, 200 RPM) with 580 mg of an aqueous phase containing 20 mg iron(III)diphosphate buffered with phosphate buffer (0.01 M, pH 7.2). The resulting mixture was extruded through a polycarbonate filter with a pore diameter of 100 nm in one cycle. Vitamin E as an antioxidant, natural aroma, and a sweetening substance were sequentially added and stirred (0.5 h, RT, 60 RPM) in order to obtain the final product.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
