Healthcare is essential for the welfare of animals and prevention of diseases transferred from animals to humans. JRS provides solutions for custom delivery systems and dosage forms to meet the needs of the growing global animal health industry.

ARBOCEL®, powdered cellulose, is a plant-based functional filler. Powdered cellulose is chemically inert and is, thus, not metabolized by the human body. Because it is not digested, it has no functional caloric value. It is commonly used by formulators as an alternative to lactose when designing medicine for lactose-intolerant patients. ARBOCEL®’s binding properties and natural fiber structure lead to stable tablets with low friability.

EMCOMPRESS® Calcium Phosphates are waterinsoluble functional fillers for wet granulation and direct compression applications.

EMDEX® is a directly compressible, water-soluble tablet binder and filler. Its unique composition of 95% glucose monohydrate and different oligosaccharides derived from starch is monographed under “dextrates” in the NF. With use levels ranging from 1% to 99%, EMDEX® is designed for a variety of tablet applications.

EXPLOTAB® Sodium Starch Glycolate is used as a superdisintegrant for tablets and other solid dosage forms. Its unique combination of performance and cost-effectiveness has established EXPLOTAB® as globally recognized product in the pharmaceutical industry.

A secure supply chain is crucial to sustain the growing international need for pharma products. As a high demand, universal product group, MCC (Microcrystalline Cellulose) requires an excipient manufacturer with a global manufacturing network backed by years of production know-how.

JRS PHARMA is one of the largest manufacturers of Microcrystalline Cellulose with seven production facilities across three continents. Our innovative internal production process ensures the highest quality standards for all our MCC products.

EMCOCEL® MCC (Microcrystalline Cellulose) is an odorless, tasteless, white powder with a high degree of brightness, derived from highly purified wood pulp. With a wide range of chemical, technical, and economic benefits, MCC is one of the most widely used binder/ filler excipients for tablet formulations.

VIVAPUR® MCC (microcrystalline cellulose) is an odorless, tasteless white powder with a high degree of brightness, derived from highly purified wood pulp. With a wide range of chemical, technical, and economic benefits, MCC is one of the most widely used binder/ filler excipients for tablet formulations.

JRS Pharma MCC Microcrystalline Cellulose Wide Range of Premium Quality MCC Binders for Specific Formulation Needs

In order to serve the unique requirements of our customers in an even more comprehensive way, we are pleased to introduce the latest addition to our portfolio, the Povidone Family: VIVAPHARM® PVP K30 (Povidone), VIVAPHARM® PVP/VA 64 (Copovidone), and VIVAPHARM® PVPP (Crospovidone).

JRS Pharma is a leading manufacturer of excipients, offering a complete portfolio of excipient solutions for the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries. Our excipients portfolio includes: high functionality excipients, binders, disintegrants, lubricants, functional fillers, thickeners, stabilizers, carriers, and coatings.

PROSOLV® EASYtab SP is an all-in-one, ready-to-use, homogenous lubricant-coated high functionality excipient composite. It is comprised of four individual components: a binder-filler, a glidant, a superdisintegrant, and a lubricant. These components maintain their chemical identities while synergistically providing increased functional performance. PROSOLV® EASYtab SP tablets are robust, offer good API stability, and require lower excipient levels than traditional blends. The advantage of using PROSOLV® EASYtab SP is higher profitability through economic savings due to higher productivity, lower set-up and cleaning costs, higher yield, and less loss.

PROSOLV® ODT G2 is a high functionality excipient for orally disintegrating tablet formulation, development, and manufacture. It provides the functional performance needed for today’s orally disintegrating tablet formulation challenges and offers a creamy, smooth, cool mouth feel.

Over 20 years ago, JRS PHARMA developed a new and innovative excipient, PROSOLV® SMCC (silicified microcrystalline cellulose), to alleviate some of the known deficiencies of conventional binders including: low bulk density, poor flow, loss of compatibility, stickiness issues, and sensitivity to lubricants. PROSOLV® SMCC not only addresses these challenges, but also offers enhanced performance.

PRUV®, Sodium Stearyl Fumarate, is a tablet lubricant specifically designed for formulations in which other lubricants lead to formulation and/or manufacturing challenges. As opposed to magnesium stearate, it offers advantages including: high degree of API compatibility, robustness to over-lubrication, no adverse effect on bioavailability, and improved appearance of effervescent solutions.

To allow easier comparison between the individual grades, we have paid particular attention to maintaining the same magnification across the micrographs presented in this SEM Atlas. The SEM Atlas was designed to provide guidance to the formulator with the goal of making rational excipient selections. Beyond this practical aspect, however, we hope that you share our appreciation for the beauty of the microcosmos of excipients.

The Tablet Formulation Guide simplifies and optimizes the excipient and manufacturing process selection. The guide identifies four critical attributes of the active ingredients, including concentration, compactability, and solubility to help find the best possible excipients for your tablet formulation.

VIVACOAT® - Ready-to-Use Coating System for Nutritional Tablets

VIVACOAT® - Ready-to-Use Coating System for Pharmaceutical Tablets

VIVAPHARM® HPMC, JRS PHARMA’s hypromellose product line, is an integral ingredient within the broad excipient product range used for solid dosage form development and manufactured by the pharmaceutical and dietary supplement industries.

VIVAPHARM® PVA 05 fine is a water soluble synthetic polymer. It is synthetized by polymerization of vinylacetate and subsequent partial hydrolysis.

VIVAPHARM® PVP/VA 64, the ultimate tablet binder for all processing technologies (wet and dry granulation, direct compression, HME), is suitable for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications.

VIVAPHARM® PVP/VA 64 is the ultimate tablet binder for all processing technologies. It can be used in direct compression, wet granulation, and dry granulation, as well as in hot melt extrusion for poorly soluble drug actives with low bioavailability.

VIVAPHARM® PVP K30 is the classic wet binder with optimal balance between adhesive strength and ease of handling. It has excellent solubility in water and a range of organic solvents, and is supplied as a free-flowing powder with spherical particle morphology. This ensures rapid dispersibility and ultimate flexibility in the solvent of choice.

VIVAPHARM® PVP is the tablet binder designed for wet granulation, suitable for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. VIVAPHARM® PVP products are fully compliant with Ph. Eur., USP, E 1201 and FCC.

VIVAPHARM® PVPP, Crospovidone, is unsurpassed in its performance and versatility as a superdisintegrant in formulations. It combines different mechanisms to achieve rapid tablet disintegration at low concentrations (1-5%).

VIVAPHARM® PVPP superdisintegrants are suitable for pharmaceutical as well as nutraceutical applications, and fully compliant with Ph. EUR., NF, JP, E 1202 and FCC.

Sugar spheres are well established, water-soluble carriers for multiparticulate dosage forms. Unlike monolithic forms, in which entire tablets or capsules are coated with functional layers, multiparticulate forms offer considerable advantages:

VIVAPUR® MCC SPHERES consist purely of Microcrystalline Cellulose making them extremely robust and chemically inert. They are, therefore, excellently suited as a carrier system.
