Abstract

A method of making a colored food or pharmaceutical excipient using a fluid bed drying machine is disclosed. The colored excipients of the present invention have been found to have a uniform color appearance.

Description

PREPARATION OF COLORED POWDERS/GRANULATES BY MEANS OF A FLUID BED DRYING APPARATUS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to powders/granulates, and more particularly colored powders/granulates, and the use of a fluid bed drying apparatus (with a spraying apparatus) for applying a suitable coloring agent to said powders/granulates.
Various fluid bed drying apparatus (with a spraying apparatus) are well- known in the pharmaceutical art [including, for example the Glatt (Model GPCG5) and the Aeromatic (Model S-7/1100L)] and are typically utilized to prepare granulates ("pellets") for use in preparing tablets or powders/granulates for oral suspension.
The spraying apparatus of fluid bed drying apparatus have been used to spray a binder liquid (e.g. starch paste) or coating liquid (e.g waxes, fats and oils) from a nozzle for granulating or coating while they are fluidized by a fluidizing gas introduced from the bottom of the apparatus of a fluid bed machine. The basic design of a typical fluid bed drying machine is center around the product container. The product container is an inverted truncated cone which has a reinforced screen in its bottom. The purpose of the screen is to allow sufficient air flow through the product bed without product passing down through into the inlet plenum, or air handling section. Directly above the product container is a cylindrical deceleration zone called expansion chamber. As air bubbles pass through the product bed, particles are carried upwards into the expansion chamber where the air velocity quickly diminishes to the point where it can no longer entrain particles. The material travels toward the walls of the expansion chamber, drops back into the product container and continue its cycling. At some height in the expansion chamber a nozzle is placed for application of the spraying liquid. The liquid is sprayed at a controlled rate into the randomly fluidized powder.
The application of a colorant by means of the spray apparatus in a fluid bed drying machine has not been previously described. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It has been surprisingly discovered that the use of the spray apparatus in a fluid bed drying machine provides a suitable means of preparing an elegant uniform fine powder having a color appearance of the sprayed excipient which is essentially the same in both solid and reconstituted form. The present invention provides a means of producing a colored excipient with a surprising color intensity and color uniformity with a small quantity of FDC approved color. The present invention includes methods of making colored excipients by means of spray drying of a colorant solution (can be a natural or synthetic FDC color, such as caramel, FDC Blue #1, Blue #2, Yellow #5, Yellow #6 and Red #40) to food and pharmaceutical excipients. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The process of the present invention can be utilized to spray a solution of a colorant (preferably a color approved for use with foods, drugs and/or cosmetics; for example caramel, beta carotene, FDC Blue #1, Blue #2, Yellow #5, Yellow #6 and Red #40), compatible with the excipient(s) to which it is to be applied. The process variables of the present invention include:
1) Atomization air pressure
2) Liquid Spray rate
3) Product temp, inlet temperature 4) Nozzle pore size
5) Nozzle position
6) Batch size and will vary depending upon the particular fluid bed machine utilized and the particle size of the particular excipient (powder/granulate) to be colored. The particle size of the excipient may vary from about 500 to 40 microns, preferably from about 500 to 40 microns. A person skilled in the art can readily determine the appropriate process variables so as to produce an elegant colored product.
The top spray apparatus of the fluid bed drying machine is positioned as low as possible above the bed of the machine in such a manner as to produce a uniform spray pattern.
The process parameters of the present invention, are typically: Spray rate: production scale 200 Gm/min to 3000 Gm/min Inlet temperature: 60 degree C to 100 degree C
Outlet temperature: 25 degree to 60 degree C
