Taste-Masking

Alfa's partner, Gattefossé, offers a unique solution to taste-masking and/or protection of active ingredients.

By forming a lipophilic film and acting as an efficient barrier against water migration, oxygen, or bad taste, lipid excipients have proven to be of high interest for many fragile molecules requiring protection.
