Pharma-grade starch engineered for for pharmacopeia-compliant fillers and coatings
AGENADYN is a pharma-grade waxy-corn, thin-boiling starch designed to deliver controlled viscosity and predictable cook-up behavior for tablet fillers, film coatings and specialized pharmaceutical matrices. The range supports reliable processing and compliance with pharmacopeial requirements.
Key benefits
- Thin-boiling behavior gives low cold viscosity and pumpable cook-up performance for continuous processing.
- Provides consistent binder and carrier properties in granulation and tableting.
- Pharmacopeia-compliant grades meet EUP/USP requirements for pharmaceutical use and regulatory clarity.
- Improves process predictability in fillers, coatings and specialty jellies, reducing formulation risk at scale.
Supports smooth, film-forming binders that aid coating uniformity and visual quality in coated dosage forms.
Delivers flowable, compressible carrier properties and consistent bulk behaviour during granulation and tableting.

Formulation insights
Pharma-grade modified starches balance functional performance with regulatory constraints. Thin-boiling waxy-corn starches are engineered to reduce cold viscosity while providing controlled viscosity development during cook-up. That behaviour facilitates pumpable cook-up operations and predictable re-thickening or setting when required, which simplifies continuous processing and dosing.
In solid dosage forms the material acts both as a carrier and as a binder that supports uniform granule formation and compression behavior; in coatings it assists film integrity and visual quality. Crucially for pharmaceutical use, AGENADYN pharma grades are specified against pharmacopeial standards (EUP / USP), giving formulators the compliance traceability they need when selecting functional excipients. These characteristics reduce scale-up risk and support reproducible manufacture across lab and production environments.
