Gelatin is widely used in the manufacture of hard and soft capsules, and has good biocompatibility and solubility which can protect the active pharmaceutical ingredients and improve bioavailability.

① Soft capsules

Gelatin has good film formation, flexiblity and biocompatibility, which can encapsulate drugs to form sealed capsules and effectively prevent the reaction  of capsule shell and contents.

② Hard capsules
Gelatin is the main material of hollow capsules, and its high freezing strength makes it suitable for the manufacture of hollow hard capsules

Gelatin can be used as a binder for tablets to help them form a solid structure and improve their temperature resistance and hardness

Gelatin sponges are widely used in surgery to control and terminate wound bleeding through their unique physical properties and biocompatibility

The advantages of gelatin as a plasma substitute are its good biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, and high cost performance

 As a scaffold material for tissue engineering, gelatin has excellent biocompatibility, degradability, cell adhesion, processability, and reversible sol-gel transition ability
