Klear Gummy™ Anhydrous Gelatin Base w/Bitter-Bloc Technology
Klear Gummy™ Anhydrous Gelatin Base is an excellent option for troches, gummies, and chew type prescriptions allowing for easy compounding of water-unstable APIs, or where stability of a drug is unknown. Simply heat the gummy base, mix in other ingredients, pour into molds, and cool. Semi-transparent, mild to no taste or smell, anhydrous gelatin gummy base derived from naturally sourced ingredients. This base has a relatively low working temperature when heated to form a pourable solution that forms a stable gelatin matrix when cooled. Excellent API load capacity. Compatible with SpecializedRx water soluble and oil soluble SRx flavors. Can be easily sweetened and flavored to preference.
Gives pharmacists the convenience of a ready-to-use anhydrous gummy base allowing for an extended beyond-use dating (BUD) stability profile per USP <795>. Dye, gluten, sugar, PEG, paraben-free, and contains our Bitter-Bloc™ Technology for optimal palatability.
This Base has a slight translucent amber appearance and is ready for the addition of actives, sweetener, and preferred flavors.

What is Bitter-Bloc™ Technology?
Other products on the market simply mask flavor defects, Bitter-Bloc™ actually blocks flavor defects from reaching taste receptors on the tongue to prevent the bitter molecules from binding with the receptor sites. In effect, it gives the product a cleaner taste. This allows formulators to use ingredients that meet consumer demand without compromising on taste. Works to eliminate bitter, salty, metallic, astringent, and general off-notes in a variety of oral formulations.

Is Bitter-Bloc™ a sweetness modulator? Bitter-Bloc™ is not a sweetness modulator as it does not affect sweetness. However, in some cases tasters will notice an enhanced flavor profile. Since bitterness is a strong flavor, it often will overpower the other flavors present. Bitter-Bloc™ will bring down the bitterness perception to the point that other flavors are now able to be perceived.
