ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method of producing a film forming blend of different acyl gellan gums with starch having similar textural and functional properties compared to gelatin. Films prepared using such blends have a high modulus and excellent strength and elongation. The present invention also relates to soft capsules prepared using such blends or films, which have good sealability.
