Sodium Starch Phosphate Analysis Service | Pharmaceutical Excipient
- Sample Types: Powdered SSP is preferred. For solutions, please indicate concentration and solvent.
- Storage and Transportation: Samples should be sealed and stored under dry, light-protected conditions. Low temperature or dry ice shipping is recommended.
Sodium Starch Phosphate Analysis Service is a systematic analytical service for evaluating the composition, content, solubility, stability, and other key properties of sodium starch phosphate. The service aims to comprehensively characterize its functional properties as a pharmaceutical excipient and provide reliable data to support drug research and manufacturing.
Sodium starch phosphate (SSP) is a commonly used modified starch in which phosphate groups are introduced into the starch molecule to enhance its stability, flowability, and disintegration performance, and it is widely applied as an excipient, disintegrant, and binder in pharmaceutical formulations. As a pharmaceutical excipient, the performance of SSP directly influences tablet hardness, dissolution behavior, and storage stability. Therefore, systematic analysis of the composition, structure, thermal behavior, and functional characteristics of SSP is of great importance for ensuring drug quality consistency, optimizing formulation processes, and meeting regulatory requirements.
